The Courage to Communicate
In this final episode with my brother Elliott Bingham as cohost (cue the sibling send-off music), we’re wrapping things up with a real and honest conversation about the beauty—and the mess—of community. We talk about how our personal strengths and weaknesses show up in relationships, why conflict is unavoidable (and actually really important), and how grace, humor, and a willingness to see things from someone else’s perspective can change everything. Elliott shares how fear of failure has sha...

Growing Pains and Honest Gains
In this episode, I sit down with my brother Elliott for another honest conversation — this time, we’re digging into our weaknesses (yay?), the struggle of people-pleasing, and why honest communication is so hard but so necessary. Elliott opens up about his tendency to avoid conflict (aka, “I’m fine” in human form), while I share what it’s looked like to stop fawning and start being real — with myself and the people around me. We talk about how hard it is to address your flaws without falling ...

Secure, Not Superior
In this episode, I’m joined by my brother Elliott (yes, the Elliott — the one with the dry humor and the sneaky one-liners) to talk about something we’ve both wrestled with in different ways: how to be confident and humble, especially when it comes to relationships. We unpack what real confidence looks like — not the loud, look-at-me kind, but the grounded, quiet strength that makes space for others. We also talk about why humility doesn’t mean shrinking back or pretending you don’t have some...

Built for Belonging
In this final episode with my father-in-law (and unofficial co-host for the month), Frank Childs joins me one last time to dig into what real, meaningful community actually looks like — and spoiler: it’s not all potlucks and polite small talk. We talk about how God designed each of us to be uniquely ourselves on purpose, and how that uniqueness is actually what makes community so rich and powerful. Frank shares his thoughts on why tough conversations are worth having, why being friendly often...

From Stuck to Steady
We’re back for round two with my father-in-law, Frank Childs — and this time, we’re talking about the sneaky struggle of indecision and the heavy weight of a scarcity mindset. Frank opens up about moments in his life where hesitation and fear of “not enough” held him back from fully stepping into the blessings God had for him (yes, even the wise ones wrestle with this stuff!). With his usual honesty and dry wit, Frank shares how indecisiveness showed up in his life, what he’s learning about G...

Mighty Through Mercy
In today’s episode, we’re talking all about the strength of graciousness, understanding, and the power we receive from God to live it out. I’m joined by a very special guest — my father-in-law, Frank Childs — who has a real gift for seeing situations from someone else’s perspective and being remarkably slow to anger (seriously, it’s impressive). Frank shares practical tips for inviting God into every conversation and situation, even when emotions run high. We dive into stories where he didn’t...

Same Roots, Different Branches
In this episode, I sit down one last time with my sister, Jesse Dear, for a real, raw, and surprisingly hilarious conversation about sisterhood, healing, and finding common ground (even when you’d rather throw a shoe). 😅 We’re keeping it honest as we unpack how two very different humans (with years of built-up misunderstandings and opposite approaches to, well... everything) found a way back to connection. From childhood chaos to adult growing pains, we share the ups, downs, and awkward middl...

Confessions of a Recovering Perfectionist
In this episode, I’m joined again by my sister, Jesse Dear, for a conversation that’s way too real—especially if you’ve ever put off a dream because you were afraid it wouldn’t be perfect. 🙋‍♀️ We dive into Jesse’s journey with perfectionism: the pressure to always get it right, look like you have it together, and basically win an imaginary gold medal in life. (Spoiler: that medal doesn’t exist.) 🥇🚫 Now? She’s learning the power of just starting—even if it’s messy, awkward, or not fully plann...
