Today I sat down with the incredible Ellie Holcomb, and wow!!!! this conversation felt like a deep breath. We talked about what it really looks like to be on the hunt for God in our everyday lives like when you’re folding laundry, driving carpool, or wondering what’s next. Ellie shared honest and practical wisdom about parenting, trusting God with our kids, and the funny, holy moments that happen in between. We laughed over real-life stories (the kind only moms can tell), talked about how to keep your heart soft to God, and how to recognize what He might be placing on your path next even when it doesn’t make sense yet. If you’re craving hope, direction, or just a reminder that you’re not alone in the chaos and calling of motherhood and faith this episode is for you!

Today on the podcast, I’m sitting down with Alena Pitts Franklin: actress, author of the brand-new devotional God Is, and newlywed adventurer - yes, the kind of adventurer who hiked Mount Kilimanjaro with her husband! No kidding! At just 21, Alena is speaking to all of us asking, “Who am I?” and she flips the question by asking instead, “Who is God?” In her 60-day devotional, she walks through His character: helper, shepherd, good Father and how truly knowing Him changes how we see ourselves. Can’t wait for you to listen!

This episode is such a treat! I had the joy of sitting down with the incredible Tasha Layton while I was hosting a special Dove Awards press event for her. Our conversation was equal parts fun and meaningful, we covered everything from motherhood and mental health to the heart behind writing songs that meet people right where they are. You’ll hear Tasha’s vulnerable reflections, hilarious stories, and a few girly things we’re both loving right now (yes, it got chatty in the best way). If you’ve ever wondered how faith, family, and creativity weave together in a life that’s both messy and magnificent, this episode is for you.

Are you carrying the weight of expectations, comparison, or hustle culture—and wondering why it still feels so heavy? You’re not alone. In this episode, I sit down with author Erica Ligenza Gwynn to talk about the lies we’ve believed for far too long and the freedom that comes when we finally replace them with God’s truth. Together, we unpack common cultural mantras like “If I’m not hustling, I’m lazy” or “My feelings are my truth”—and why they leave us stuck, burned out, and empty. Erica shares how recognizing and rejecting these lies opened the door for her to live with authenticity, purpose, and joy in Christ. If you’ve ever thought, “It’s happening for everyone but me” or “I’m too messy to be loved,” this conversation is for you. You’ll walk away encouraged to spot the subtle lies shaping your story and equipped with biblical truths that offer real freedom. This is a hope-filled, honest chat for any woman ready to stop striving and start living in the unshakable truth of who God says she is.

What if rest wasn’t a reward—but the way through your overwhelm? In this honest and hope-filled episode, Rachel sits down with speaker and author Tara Sun to talk about what it really looks like to live a present, peaceful, and purpose-driven life without burning out. Together they unpack the reality so many women face: juggling faith, motherhood, work, and big dreams—while feeling overbooked and overwhelmed. Tara shares her personal journey of hitting a breaking point, how God met her there, and why the gospel isn’t about hustle—it’s about abiding. You’ll walk away with practical tools to evaluate what truly belongs in your life, how to set godly priorities, and what to do when you’re drowning in good things but still feel empty. Whether you're racing through life at 100mph or just craving more margin and meaning, this episode is your reminder that Jesus isn’t asking you to do it all—He’s asking you to walk with Him.

In this episode, Rachel sits down with Stephanie May Wilson to talk all about the power of the pivot and when life nudges (or shoves!!!) you in a totally new direction. We dig into what it looks like to pursue a calling that feels wildly different from your current path, why giving yourself permission to change is so hard (but so holy), and how to navigate transitions with faith, courage, and clarity.

In this powerful and tender conversation, Rachel sits down with Davy Blackburn, founder of Nothing is Wasted Ministries, to talk about grief, healing, and how joy can emerge even in the darkest moments. Davy’s life was forever changed in 2015 when his wife Amanda was tragically killed during a home invasion. Since then, he has walked through the messy reality of grief while discovering the profound truth that nothing is wasted in God’s hands. This episode explores the gravity of his story, the complexities of grieving while clinging to faith, and the surprising ways hope and joy have shown up along the way. Davy also shares what he would tell himself during his darkest days, what healing looks like now, and how he’s helping others navigate their own pain through Nothing is Wasted. ⚠️ Please note: this episode contains sensitive topics, including death and a violent crime. Listener discretion is advised, especially if little ears are nearby. If you’ve ever wondered whether joy and sorrow can coexist — or if God can really redeem what feels unredeemable — this conversation will meet you right where you are.

In this deeply moving episode, Rachel sits down with Kiwi Cook, a former Compassion International sponsored child, whose story will stop you in your tracks. Growing up in poverty overseas, Kiwi’s early life was marked by scarcity, resilience, and a dream that felt impossibly far away… until one person’s “yes” changed everything. Together, they explore what daily life looked like for Kiwi as a child, how sponsorship gave her more than just practical help, and what it feels like to now stand on the other side of her story. Kiwi brings raw honesty, contagious joy, and a powerful perspective on how love, dignity, and opportunity can ripple through generations. If you’ve ever wondered whether sponsorship really works or if your small yes could actually change a life, this is the conversation for you.

In a world that’s constantly telling us to change our bodies, Lisa Whittle is inviting us to reclaim them. In this powerful conversation, we sit down with Lisa to talk about her brand-new Bible study, Body and Soul: A Biblical Look at the Whole Person God Created You to Be. From anti-aging serums to fad diets and fitness fads, we’re bombarded with messages that our bodies are problems to solve. But what if—just what if—our bodies were good? What if we stopped striving and started seeing our whole selves the way God does? Lisa walks us through how Scripture talks about the body—not just in bits and pieces, but from Genesis to Revelation. This isn’t your typical body talk. It’s about rediscovering what it means to live as a whole person, made in the image of a God who doesn’t make mistakes. We talk about curves, scars, stretch marks, and faith. We get into identity, healing, and how every wrinkle can tell a story of God's faithfulness. This episode is an invitation to live well, not just spiritually—but physically, emotionally, and fully present.

It’s another two part story time! This time, it’s with the Awtreys! In this first half of a two-part conversation, Rachel sits down with her husband, Thomas, to catch up on a year marked by deployment, parenting curveballs, and chasing big dreams. From the boys’ muddy adventures to the behind-the-scenes of writing Rachel’s debut book, this episode feels like a warm, honest chat on the couch. They talk reentry after time apart, lessons from military life, and how joy still shows up in the middle of messy routines. If you’re craving a real-life check-in with laughter, honest marriage talk, and big “same here” energy—you’re in the right place.

We’ve all got one—that version of ourselves we’d rather forget. Maybe it’s a season marked by regret, insecurity, or hidden shame. In today’s episode, Rachel sits down with the incredible Meshali Mitchell to talk about what it looks like to heal from the “cringy” eras of our past. The ones we avoid talking about, laugh off, or silently carry shame over. Meshali shares her own story of restoration and how God didn’t just redeem those messy moments—He repurposed them for beauty, freedom, and deeper intimacy with Him. This episode is your permission slip to stop hiding, start healing, and believe that nothing is wasted in the hands of a God who restores. Whether you’re in the middle of your mess or walking out of it, this conversation will leave you encouraged, seen, and reminded that you’re never too far gone for grace.

In today’s episode, Rachel is joined by the talented singer-songwriter and podcast host Christy Nockels. You might know Christy for her moving music, her podcast Glorious in the Mundane, or her latest project—an album called A King Who Never Sleeps: Anthems for Rest. Rachel and Christy catch up in a cozy Nashville studio, reflecting on real-life connections, their shared experience at Lost Valley Ranch, and what it means when unexpected passions—like horseback riding—shape who we are. They dive deep into themes of rest, growth in hard seasons, and the gentle ways we can all care for ourselves and our families through sacred rhythms.

If you haven’t listened to Part One yet, go ahead and start there—we lay the groundwork for what unfolds in this powerful second half of the conversation. In Part Two, Rachel and Annie pick up right where they left off: talking about the tension of living in a world where grief and joy often walk side by side. They open up about what it means to live with emotional integrity while being a public figure, how to let people in without overexposing your soul, and why boundaries are actually an act of love. Annie talks more about how writing Where Did TJ Go? helped her grieve and process as an aunt and sister, and Rachel shares the surprising ways joy keeps showing up, even in the middle of loss. There’s grace, there’s giggling, and there’s some lipstick wisdom you won’t want to miss. This one will leave you feeling seen, hopeful, and reminded that you’re not alone in your mess or your joy.

Welcome to Part One of a truly special conversation on Real Talk. Host Rachel Awtrey sits down with the one and only Annie F. Downs—beloved author, podcaster, and everyone’s favorite “Queen of Fun.” What starts as a joyful catch-up between old friends quickly opens into something deeper as they talk about what it means to hold both joy and grief in the same hand. In this first half, you’ll hear the story of how Rachel and Annie first met, laugh at some of their classic banter (mysterious sports bras included), and gently enter the harder spaces—like navigating personal loss and the sacred timing of sharing your story. Rachel vulnerably shares her recent experience with miscarriage, while Annie offers tender reflections on co-writing Where Did TJ Go?, a children’s book about grief written after the loss of her nephew. This is an honest, compassionate, and faith-filled conversation—and it’s just getting started. Make sure to listen all the way through and then jump into Part Two, where things go even deeper.

If you've ever felt like you're failing because your house (or your parenting) feels messy, this conversation will feel like a deep exhale. I sat down with Justin Whitmel Earley — author of Habits of the Household, The Common Rule, Made for People, and now The Big Mess — to talk about why the real beauty in parenting often shows up in the chaos. We cover how birth order affects family dynamics, why things in parenthood are messier (and better) than we imagined, and how to make space for our kids (and ourselves) to be exactly who God made us to be—clumsy moments and all.

What if the breakthrough you’re craving isn’t found in doing more, shouting louder, or performing harder—but in going lower? In today’s heartfelt and powerful episode, I’m joined by Zach Meekreebs—pastor, speaker, and author of Lower: Ignite Spiritual Awakening Through Radical Humility. We talk about how humility isn’t weakness—it’s consecrated confidence. Zach shares the behind-the-scenes story of how a quiet moment of obedience at Asbury University turned into a 16-day move of God that drew tens of thousands, and why the most profound spiritual awakenings often begin not in our strength, but in our surrender. This episode is a gentle invitation to rethink what it means to make an impact, lead with integrity, and live in step with God’s spirit—in your business, parenting, ministry, and everyday life.

You may recognize Leigh-Allyn Baker as the hilarious mom from Good Luck Charlie on Disney Channel, but there’s so much more to her story than what we saw on screen. In this episode, Leigh-Allyn opens up about her journey through Hollywood, the courageous moments when she had to stand firm in her faith, and how God showed up in unexpected ways. We talk about what it really means to follow your convictions, even when it’s unpopular, and how creativity and purpose can bloom when the path ahead feels uncertain. This is a conversation about boldness, faith, and trusting that God makes a way—even when it looks different than we imagined.

Ever felt like life is spiraling and you’re just trying to hold on? In this episode, Levi Lusko joins me to talk about what it means to spiral—not as a sign of failure, but as an unexpected invitation to growth, grace, and greater purpose. We dive into his new book, Blessed Are the Spiraling, and explore how disorientation can actually be divine, why losing control might be exactly what we need, and how to find steady joy in the chaos. Levi shares powerful personal stories, biblical truth, and hard-won wisdom that will leave you both comforted and challenged. If you’ve been asking questions like Am I too late to start over?, Will this season ever end?, or Who am I without success?, this conversation is for you. Because maybe the spiral you’re in... is the beginning of something beautiful.
