Episode 6: I had cancer, and I thank God that I did
Hello, beautiful people! Today’s episode is an “updated” cancer diagnosis story. I did share it in more depth last season but the lord was putting it on my heart to share it again. This December I will be 4 years in remission and I thank God for that. I also thank Him that it had cancer at all, I wouldn’t change it, I needed my faith to be strengthened. Thanks for listening and have a blessed day!

Episode 5: Spiritual Warfare- modern day darkness and how we fight against it
Hello amazing people! Buckle up for today’s episode- all about a hard but necessary topic to discuss, spiritual warfare and what we unknowingly maybe be doing inviting darkness into our lives. I discuss even my own convictions the Lord has been working in my over the last almost year and even things I’ve recently been learning. A big question is what does the Bible reallt say about psychics, witchcraft, and even astrology? Well, A LOT! Some people, maybe even some I grew up with or knew year ago might hear this and think “But Rachael you’ve talked about some of these things before like you believed it” I know, and that was wrong of me and clearly as a follower of Christ, I should have never done those things. And yet the Lord had grace and forgiveness. If you want to learn more I encourage you to listen to podcasts and sermons, I’d love to share some from my own church if you’d like to listen. The scripture I shared today was Deuteronomy 18:4, Isaiah 8:19-22, Deuteronomy 4:19, and Acts 19: 13-16

EPISODE 19- Fellow Hodgkins Lymphoma Survivor Allie Beebe- being a new mom, going through chemo, and learning to live in the moment

Hello Amazing people,

In todays episode we get our very first ever cancer survivor guest! She is a friend of mine and fellow lymphomie. About year ago to date Allie messaged me on Instagram confused, scared, and really not know what just happened to her or what was about to come. At about 38 week pregnant Allie was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma, her oncologist told her it was the "good cancer" and she should have completely fine. But its more than that, she was supposed to be celebrating her new baby girl and not stressing over an ill timed and never foreseen cancer diagnosis. Today Allie shares the deep details about her diagnosis and the thoughts she felt during and after treatment. Processing what happened to her, jumping into a cancer patient and new mom role at once and then when its all over, creating a new normal, learning to live in the present, and always knowing she can lean on those who love her most.

I hope you all love today's episode! Don't forget to leave a rate, review and SUBSCRIBE! Follow my personal and podcast Instagram for all the Tea and Updates!

EPISODE 15- its my birthday!!!!! but we're gonna talk about grieving our past selves :)

Hello amazing people!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME, lol I am 23 today and today's episode is kind of, moody lol. Yes, I know! Today's topic is a little heavy, but hey it's been on my heart and mind, and I wanted to share. Maybe you've been experiencing this very heavily lately and frankly so have I. I feel like around birthdays people tend to get very introspective and look at how they've changed in the years past and that looks so different for me personally. So, buckle up, today we're talking about grief (and a few rabbit trails of course, I can't just shut off my other thoughts lol). I hope you enjoy today's episode, please let me know if you use the journal prompts, I shared, leave a rate and review, please SUBSCRIBE!!! And follow both my personal and the podcast Instagram's ;)

I love and appreciate you all! Go make it a great day!
