| 111. Let's Grow, Girl... Your Breakthrough is Waiting!! 5 Ways to Set yourself up for Success on your Growth Journey | 07 Feb 2022 | 00:26:32 | |
111. I don’t know about you, but my husband and I are polar opposites. He’s a risk taker, a “fly by the seat of your pants” kinda guy. As for me, I’m a planner and more of a “play it safe” girl, but there’s one area where our personalities overlap… We are both passionate about growth. And being stretched. And stepping outside of our comfort zone, even though it can feel scary sometimes. So when my husband and I went on an epic cross country journey to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary a few years back, I should probably have known better than to do what I did. I gave my husband one job… ONE JOB. I’d planned the entire trip from Iowa to South Carolina to Tennessee, but I left ONE job up to Chad. “Babe, book us a zip line while we’re in the Smoky Mountains. I’m gonna be brave and do this with you.” I tossed him a brochure that had a small zip line course that overlooked beautiful waterfalls. Romantic right?! What I didn’t know was there was a second zip line course and it was called “The Goliath Line.” It was 475 feet high and the passenger travels at over 55 mph. “We’re booked,” Chad told me. I had NO idea what was ahead… We showed up at the Zip line check in. “You’re down for the Goliath line,” our guide told us. I turned white, my eyes got huge and my stomach churned. I looked at Chad. He smiled at me. I had a moment of insanity andecided then and there I would do this thing. We zipped a couple of “starter” lines. When it was my turn to jump off the first platform, I thought I was going to throw up. And this was like, the baby line. I didn’t want to look like a total chicken in front of the group that was zipping with us, plus I really DID want to have this experience with my husband, so I held my breath… and jumped. I made it to the other side alive and I decided zipping was actually pretty awesome. We finally got to the last zipline of the tour… the GOLIATH. It was bigger, badder, longer, higher, SCARIER than I had even imagined. My prior thoughts about zip lining being awesome were completely diminished at that moment. I watched my husband jump with total delight into the vast sky, 475 feet above thousands of acres of the Smoky Mountain National Park. If I remember right, I’m pretty sure he even went “upside down” on PURPOSE. And then… It was my turn. There was no turning back. My legs trembled. My stomach flipped. Heights are one of my greatest challenges. I wanted to cry. I wanted to back away from the edge. But I didn’t. Instead, I jumped. I jumped because I knew it would cause me to grow. And friend, I didn’t just grow a little bit, I grew a lot as I SOARED over the tree tops. It was silent and peaceful. It was surreal. I felt (physically) the closet to God that I ever had in my life. The forest below me was a lush green carpet. The heavens surrounded me. I wanted to stay in that moment forever. When I landed, I was CHANGED. What would you have done in that situation, friend? Are you in a place, hungry enough for growth in your life that you would make that jump too? I know that you are. So join me on the podcast today, where I’m sharing about 5 ways that you can set yourself up for success on your growth journey. This one’s for all my growth-minded sisters! With deep faith and great JOY, Katie

| 108. The Secret of Life (Hint: It's a Biblical Principle) | 24 Jan 2022 | 00:24:53 | |
108. Psst… Want to know a secret? (I had to learn it the hard way.) #facepalm My husband and I had to walk through fire to learn this secret. I mean… we almost crumbled. We almost lost everything. It was bad. There were days where I struggled to breathe, actually. But those moments were necessary to learn the secret and if we hadn’t learned it, I’m convinced we’d still be stuck living out a nightmare. I’m so glad that the Lord leaned in while we were at rock bottom to speak this secret into our hearts. It took learning and implementing His wisdom before we could begin climbing our way out of the dark hole we found ourselves in. What is the secret? It’s tucked away within the scripture, in Matthew 25:14-30. You don’t have to learn it the hard way like I did, Sis. Meet me over on the podcast and I’ll share it with you… With deep faith and great JOY, Katie

It’s basically a free life coaching session, Sis! I wanted to share this wisdom with you though, because it’s life changing.

That’s why we’re here… to help, and love, and serve one another… to walk in freedom, together! I really do mean it when I say, I love you, friend. You are special. You hold value. You are a good mom.

| 106. To the Exhausted, Busy Mom with a Teachable and Hungry Heart (Tips to THRIVE! - Part 1) | 10 Jan 2022 | 00:30:48 | |
106. As my word of the year “Relatable,” continues to tug at my heartstrings, I felt prompted to reach back into my own early, blurry days of motherhood and share some of my rookie mistakes with you. Geesh, I made a lot. That first kiddo feels like such an experiment, right? I remember feeling so lonely, overwhelmed and completely unqualified and unequipped to excel at motherhood. Mix that with the unrealistic expectations I had set for myself, along with my desire for control and perfection and let me just say…. It was a recipe for one heck of a hot mess mom! Thankfully, the Lord began to whisper to my heart and I grew in wisdom. (I’m still growing, let’s be real!) These days, there is a lot more intention, peace and joy in my motherhood… all because the Lord opened my eyes to what it’s all about, as well as WHO I really am. I’m a daughter before I’m even a mom. You are too, Sis! We can rest in that. Yes and amen! Tune in to today’s podcast episode as I share stories from my early days of motherhood, along with 5 tips to help you thrive. You got this, mama! (I’m here to help!)

103. Have you ever experienced a “coincidence” but something inside you told you it was more than that? Maybe you felt a little tug in your heart and wondered “perhaps this is the hand of God?” or “is it possible that God could have orchestrated this moment to show me how much he loves me?” Louise DuArt and her husband SQuire Rushnell would call those little moments “Godwinks,” a special term that many people have come to know, embrace and experience. You are in for such a treat today, because Louise is joining me on the Stepping into a Joy Filled Life podcast to chat about “Godwinks” and to share how we can tap into the Godwinks that are available to us.

102. It’s that time of year where people are putting a lot of thought into what’s going on with their physical health.

Kelly Wenner, faith and fitness coach and founder of SoulStrength is joining me on the podcast today to talk about the beautiful place where our physical AND spiritual health collide. (It’s a pretty interesting concept, right?!) Check this out… Have you ever considered the question “Are food choices and health a spiritual battle?” Interesting question, right?!

| 100. Why do Bad Things Happen to Good People? Our Family's Personal Story of Navigating our Daughter's Scoliosis Journey | 06 Dec 2021 | 00:40:14 | |
100. It’s time to share something with the world. It’s a message of hope and healing. It’s a story of God’s goodness, regardless of any certain “outcome.” So, here it is… Our family has been walking through a heavy situation these last few months. In July, on the day after her 13th birthday, it was discovered that our daughter, Chloe, had scoliosis. In simple terms, it means her spine had a pretty severe curve to it. The world would deem this as “bad news,” and to be honest, it’s not anything we wanted to hear. It’s not a journey we hoped our child would ever have to be on. After some tears, a lot of hopeful prayers and meeting with a Pediatric Orthopedic Specialist at the University Hospital in September, we got the toughest news of all… Chloe needed to have spinal fusion surgery to correct the scoliosis. We felt shocked, sad, scared, hopeful, relieved (somehow?), and determined to walk the long road ahead hand in hand with our girl and partnered with the Lord. In October, Chloe underwent surgery. The procedure was successful and she has been home on the road to recovery for several weeks now. That’s the story in a quick, little snippet. But what I just shared is NOWHERE near the whole story. God moved mountains in Chloe’s life and ours throughout this journey. He showed us new and awesome things. He spoke to our hearts in powerful ways. I’m sharing the whole story, complete with every last detail, every little God-wink, the struggles, the blessings and everything in between today on the podcast. Tune in to today’s episode to hear about our family’s (very) personal, faith-filled journey over these last few months. I pray it brings blessing upon blessing to your life! With Deep Faith and Great Joy! Katie P.S. It’s the 100th episode of the Stepping Into a Joy Filled Life podcast!

| 98. I Love Me, I Love Me Not... Tips to Create a Healthy Self-Love while Becoming Emotionally and Spiritually Fit | 22 Nov 2021 | 00:30:42 | |
98. Growing up, did you ever sit out in the grass and play the old flower petal “gamble” game? You know the one where you whisper over and over again “he loves me, he loves me not” as you sheepishly pluck petals off of a flower. I’ll be the first to (embarrassingly) admit… I remember doing it. “He loves me, he loves me not… he loves me, he loves me not…” As if love were some kind of toss-up, luck of the draw game of chance?! Well… maybe back in the 5th grade it was. But these days? We’re older, wiser and more equipped. Love is deep. It’s true and real. You know that. I don’t have to tell you. But what about when it comes to you loving yourself? What does that kind of love look like? Have you ever thought about it? So often as women, we think about, and try to show our love for others, but do we slow down enough to actually form a healthy “self-love?” Rebecca Dawson, a faith based Master’s Level counselor is joining me on the podcast today to dive into this topic. I have to admit… she rocked my world when she mentioned a piece of scripture during our recording that goes like this… “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength. And love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other command greater than these.” (Mark 12:30-31) Wait a minute!? The Bible says to “love yourself?!” Oh yes, sister, it does. I don’t know about you but I have referenced that scripture in my mind so many times before like this…. “Love your neighbor” Period. Hard stop! But it doesn’t stop there.

| 96. Tired of the "Hot Mess" Mom Culture? Practical Ways to Set Yourself up for MORE JOY and LESS STRESS! | 08 Nov 2021 | 00:20:01 | |
96. There’s this thing in motherhood that’s become socially acceptable… Not just socially acceptable, but the “norm” actually. Hot mess mom culture. We speak it, we embrace, we live it and we create more of it. Yep, I said it. We create more of it… We say things like “I’m a hot mess. That’s just the way it is.” While motherhood CAN be messy… (spit up, throw up, poop explosions anyone?!) It can also be beautiful and… intentional. And it can even be peaceful. It doesn’t have to feel like we’re riding the hot mess express every hour of every day. The Lord has been speaking to my heart about this lately, so I grabbed the mic and recorded a podcast about debunking the embrace of hot mess mom culture. Not only that, but I’m also sharing practical tips and strategies from my own #MomLife about how I intentionally set myself up for success as a mom in the four most important areas of my life. Get ready for less stress, and more JOY, mama friend! These simple solutions are about to change your life! With Great Joy!

| 95. How to Live an Intentional, Values Based Life | 01 Nov 2021 | 00:30:48 | |
95. Have you ever considered what your core values are? Right off the top of your head, you might answer with a quick “faith and family are my core values, of course!” If that was your response, that’s awesome! And you’re not alone, that’s most people’s exact answer. Those things are great, but… core values actually go way deeper and encompass way more than those vague answers. Things like honor, compassion, integrity, hospitality and financial stability are core values that are “funneled down” to something so focused that they become absolute. Knowing what your core values are is like having a guiding light deep down inside of you, and that guiding light can help you make decisions before there are even decisions to make! When you’re at a crossroad and don’t know what your next step is, you can turn to your core values to help make the best choice. It’s so helpful! Sarah Dalton, a fellow podcast host joins me on the Stepping Into a Joy Filled Life podcast today! Meet us over there for a deep dive discussion on core values and tips about how you can live a more intentional, values based life. Sarah is even sharing her core value implementation method! Don’t miss it as she shares how to name your values, define your values and then align them with your life, as well as her CEO framework! It’s tangible and helpful.

94. If you’re a visual learner, you’re going to love this… I want you to picture your life as a bucket. (Seriously!) What’s your bucket look like? What color is it? Is it full or empty? Is it heavy or light? Is it worn out, cracked and leaking? Or is it overflowing with what’s inside? I don’t know about you, but in terms of my life, I want a bucket of overflow! God wants that for you too, Sis. He loves to bless his children! God has something awesome planned for your life that you can’t even fathom, that you haven’t even seen yet because the energy drainers and the distractions have kept you looking back when you should be looking forward! You may be thinking, “That’s great, Katie, but what in the heck are “energy drainers!?” I’m glad you asked! Today on the podcast, I’m sharing what “energy drainers” are, how you can swap them for “bucket fillers” instead and ultimately, how you unlock your best life and step into the OVERFLOW that God has for you!

| 92. Narcissism Part 1: Gaslighting, Manipulation and other Controlling Tactics that Narcissists Commonly Use (to Abuse) | 18 Oct 2021 | 00:23:59 | |
92. When it comes to the Stepping Into a Joy Filled Life podcast, I’m all ears when you and other listeners offer feedback, share episodes with your friends and send me messages/comments/questions about the episodes that you find impactful. When episode #77 aired earlier this summer, the feedback was overwhelming. In that episode, Ronica Cormier (host of the Mama Trauma podcast) shared her expertise and wisdom around the topic of narcissism. She discussed the spiritual impacts of narcissism, gave us examples of red flags to watch for and she even shared about how narcissism has affected her on a personal level, as well as how she found healing. It was a loaded episode that brought tremendous amounts of insight and if that wasn’t enough, Ronica graciously agreed to come back on the show to join me for not one, but TWO episodes to dig deeper into all of this. Today we’re discussing control tactics that narcissists commonly use to abuse their victims PLUS two simple, effective techniques you can use to put a stop to these toxic tactics. (This was my favorite part of the interview! GREAT INFO!) …and then, don’t miss Part 2 when it releases on Thursday where we’re diving into the question “Can a Narcissist recover and change their ways??” This info will change your life, Sis.

| 91. Holding onto Past Wounds and Hurt Feelings? How to Find HEALING | 11 Oct 2021 | 00:19:35 | |
91. There’s a fresh, new episode waiting for you on the podcast today and the messaging is this… Healing brings JOY! Yes and Amen. So many of us are walking around hanging onto past hurts, stuffing them down deep or thinking that those things don’t actually matter. Or maybe we “think” we’ve already found healing? Here’s the thing, Sis… We are actually run by our emotions when we are running away from them. The world tells us to ignore, or just “get over” our past hurts. The world says “haters gonna hate. Use it as fuel.” But the way the world says to handle our hurts and anger is contrary to how the Bible says to handle and HEAL from those things. Jessica Hottle, a faith-based fitness coach, is joining me in today’s episode and sharing about how we can partner with God to see our healing all the way through, because healing? It. Brings. JOY!

87. Hey Sister Friend! Isn’t God so awesome to connect us with special people at exactly the right time? When a fellow sister in Christ found the podcast and then connected with me via messenger, I knew that she had a heart to serve women and a story about love, loss and community that needed to be shared with the world.

Immediately, she was thrown into a season that included shock and walking through the process of deep grief and eventually, healing. Through it all Abigail leaned into the Lord and the community around her and as a result, she experienced relationships and love on a whole new level.

| 82. Sync Your Cycle: How Your Menstrual Cycle is Affecting Your Sex Life, Productivity and Your Mood | 09 Aug 2021 | 00:24:01 | |
82. Ahhh… isn’t being a woman glamorous? Hormones, periods, child bearing, #allthethings, right?! LOL. I remember sitting at the kitchen table one evening, looking at my family and then just bursting into tears for seemingly no reason at all. I covered my face and ran into our son’s bedroom. My husband walked in and looked at me dumbfounded. “It’s my stupid hormones,” I blurted out between sobs. He gave me a long hug, then walked out without saying a word. The poor guy had no clue about the hormonal storm that was raging inside of me. Neither did I, really. Fast forward a few years and a whole lotta wisdom… Today I know about the secret (gift from God) that is “cycle syncing.” Yep, you read that right, as weird as it sounds. Our monthly cycle isn’t just something we should dread each month. When we take a deeper look at it, it’s actually an amazing calendar system that can give us insight into how we can function at our best ALL month long. #PraiseHands I’m spilling alllll the deets over on the podcast today.

| 80. Want to Have More FUN in Your Marriage? 4 Tips to Make it Happen! | 26 Jul 2021 | 00:27:16 | |
80. My husband and I recently celebrated our 15th Anniversary with a trip to Door County, Wisconsin and let me tell you…. We had so. much. Fun!! From the road trip itself, to the beautiful scenery and spending time in nature, to spending time in the bedroom (wink!), our little getaway was exactly what we needed! We came home feeling refreshed and more in love than ever. #swoon While we were on our adventure, God revealed a few things to my heart about the importance of having FUN in our marriage and so I jotted down several of the ways that Chad and I spark joy together. Some of them are spicy! Some of them are practical. Press play on today’s episode where I share all about our trip, as well as 4 tips for having more FUN in your own marriage. #RelationshipGoals am I right?! With Great Joy!

| 77. Narcissism // What it is, Why it Hurts, How to deal with It | 05 Jul 2021 | 00:26:31 | |
77. Narcissism. It’s a heavy word. And it’s probably rearing its ugly head somewhere in your life (or it has in the past). The after effects of being abused by a narcissistic person can be deep and painful. There’s a reason why. Narcissism is not only a psychological battle, it’s also spiritual warfare. Ronica Cormier, host of the Mama Trauma podcast is joining me today to deep dive into this topic. We’re unpacking what narcissism is, why it hurts and how to deal with it. In all transparency, immediately after we finished recording this episode, my heart was so convicted to pray for a loved one that I immediately hit my knees and called on the redemptive power of the Holy Spirit. This episode is a powerful one, Sis. Press play. With Great Joy! Katie ————————— Hey Sweet Friend! I used to be a stressed-out mama, battling overwhelm, anxiety and #momguilt.

Candace Advent, a fellow Jesus lovin’ sister joins me on the podcast today to bravely share about how she traded religion for a relationship with Christ, while simultaneously walking through a divorce, becoming sober and navigating a pregnancy.

Tune in as Candace shares from her heart about what life looked like inside the Jehovah's Witness Religion, what she lost and gained by leaving and the hopeful life that she lives today.
