This week on the Anchored with Purpose podcast, I’m sharing something a little different — not about goal setting or productivity, but about joy. The kind of joy that sneaks up on you when you least expect it, the kind God brings right into your lap… sometimes literally, with fur, wrinkles, and curly tails. Our family just adopted two new pug puppies, Duke and Duchess, from Green Mountain Pug Rescue, and they’ve completely stolen our hearts. After losing our beloved Olive in 2020 and Frank the Tank earlier this year, our house felt quiet — like something was missing. But God, in His goodness, knew exactly how to fill that space again. In this episode, I’m sharing the full story — from how Olive and Frank first became part of our lives, to the long wait, the adoption process, and the moment Duke and Duchess came home. You’ll hear how God used these little rescue pups to remind me that He truly cares about the small details of our lives — even the four-legged ones. What You’ll Hear: How our family’s pug story began — and how each one “found” us What the waiting season taught me about God’s timing The sweet reminder that joy often returns in small, unexpected ways How Duke and Duchess have brought laughter and light back into our home Let’s Stay Connected: Instagram: @anchoredwithpurpose Website: anchoredwithpurpose.com
