It's true – I'm stepping away from the podcast (for now) after five unbelievable seasons. This episode shares my real-time thoughts of why and a little about what's next.
I adore this space we've created and have a hunch it'll come back in some way, shape or form down the road. Thank you for being a part of it. And until then, cheers to an entire library of More with Nikki Dutton episodes that feature compelling conversations with some of the most incredible people on the planet – plus a lot of life lived together since October 2020.

This episode is a collab with one of my favorite friends, Taylor Carlier, founder of The Already Collective. We walk through some of the miraculous moments in life so far, the highs and lows of ministry and how community carried me through some of my toughest moments – all against the backdrop of the already, not yet aspect of the Kingdom of God.

I had the incredible honor of speaking at a Monday morning devotion at the Chick-fil-A Support center recently and wanted to share that message with you here!
All of us would say life now, or our situation at certain points, has looked very different than we expected – and we look at the life of Joseph in the Bible we are reminded that the most unexpected places sometimes hold the most unexpected purpose.

Over these first six months as a new mom I have felt like we are making one massive decision after another. From feeding to childcare, travel to medical choices – each one has felt so ultimate. Maybe it's motherhood, but I have a hunch this might resonate for a lot of us in our thirties.
Listen in to hear how we've navigated a few of these decisions, all the thoughts and feeling that accompanied them, and catch up on what life looks like today with our six-month old (unbelievable!).

Grace Valentine is an author and speaker, but considers herself an honorary friend – which is perfect, because she literally wrote the book on friendship,The Better Friend: 12 Truths to Shift from Shallow and One-Sided Connections to Vibrant Friendships.
I love that this conversation is all about how to take friendships to the next level, and if you've followed this podcast for any amount of time, you've met many of my friends that these practices directly apply to. A perfect episode for whatever season of friendships you find yourself in!

Annie F. Downs—New York Times best-selling author, speaker, and podcaster—is known for her infectious energy and the fun she brings to everything she does. So, at first glance, it might be surprising that she wrote Where Did TJ Go? A Book for Kids on Grief and Loss.
However in our conversation, we explore why Annie was the perfect person to write this book—not only because it was always intended for her nephew, Sam, but because of who she is. Annie's specific wiring and gifts open the door to a bigger conversation about what it means to show up in the world exactly as we are, embracing the ways we are uniquely made.

It still feels surreal – but Scott and I are days away from welcoming our first baby boy into the world! Excited is an understatement. In these final days before having this baby, I wanted to record a real-time episode with all of my thoughts, questions, predictions, plans, and share them with you.
Thank you for being along for this journey from day one! We can't wait to introduce you to our boy very soon.

Annie Willems has been a doula for the last 17 years and came across my TikTok feed during my pregnancy. I gravitated towards what she had to say because she answered so many of the questions I have as a first-time mom preparing for delivery (any day now!!) and she did so in a way that was permission-filled and peaceful.
So grateful to get to have this conversation with Annie as we are so close to delivering our own baby! But this conversation goes beyond childbirth and talks about how we deal with pain and uncertainty in general.

Dr. Emily McGowin is one of my favorite professors from my master's program at Wheaton College. She been on the podcast before, but I had to invite her back when I saw her newest book is all about building family. What I love most about this concept and conversation is that family isn't limited to a certain season of life – it's available (and happening) for all of us wherever we're at.

One thing is for certain, 2025 looks like it will be a year filled with firsts. Of course, the biggest coming-very-soon for me is meeting our baby boy – but even beyond this major life moment, I think this year holds a lot of space for the brand new.
In this episode, I invite you to reflect on 2024 and think through what you want more of in 2025. Excited to be along for the ride of whatever this year holds together!
