From small, unseen acts of kindness to stepping into uncomfortable moments of obedience, we discuss how sharing God’s love isn’t always loud… but it’s always powerful.We discuss how to recognize opportunities to serve, how to love people right where they are, and how to reflect Christ in a world that is desperately searching for something real. Whether it’s through a simple conversation, showing compassion to a stranger, or being present for someone in need, every act matters.This episode is a reminder that you don’t have to have all the answers—you just have to be willing and available.🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or by clicking the link in our bio.We pray that every episode brings you strength and encouragement on your journey.Go be Unashamedly You!💕➡️ Subscribe: unashamedlyyou.com➡️ Free Session: unashamedlyyou.com/coaching➡️ Contact: unashamedlyyou.com/contact-4
In this week’s episode with renowned photographer, Ashley Kematick, we talk about what it really looks like to pursue a dream while staying grounded in your values. The photography world can feel crowded and competitive, but there is always room for those who choose to do things differently—with excellence, integrity, and modesty.Ashley shares how photographers can stand out not just through talent, but through character. Excellence in your craft matters, but the way you treat people, the way you honor your convictions, and the way you carry yourself can set you apart even more.We also talk about chasing the dreams God places in your heart. Building a business takes faith, hard work, and perseverance. There will always be trends, pressure, and comparison in creative industries, but true success comes from staying faithful to what you believe and who you’re called to be. In a world that often celebrates attention and exposure, choosing modesty can be a quiet but powerful way to reflect dignity and respect for yourself and others.Whether you’re a photographer, a creative, or someone pursuing a calling, this episode will encourage you to keep going, stay true to your convictions, and pursue excellence in everything you do. You don’t have to compromise your values. When you pursue your dreams with excellence, integrity, and modesty, you naturally become set apart.You can find Ashley Kematick here- https://www.instagram.com/ashleykematick?igsh=Mmd0cnFoNnNnZmo4Email-info@ashleykematick.comOnline-www.ashleykematick.com🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or by clicking the link in our bio.We pray that every episode brings you strength and encouragement on your journey.Go be Unashamedly You!💕➡️ Subscribe: unashamedlyyou.com➡️ Free Session: unashamedlyyou.com/coaching➡️ Contact: unashamedlyyou.com/contact-4
In this episode, we sit down with Mikki Walters to talk about something every person encounters—moments when someone is hurting and we want to help, but we aren’t sure what to say or do.She gives us the reminder that Christlike compassion isn’t about having the perfect words. It’s about having a willing heart. Sometimes the most powerful ministry happens in quiet moments of obedience—standing with someone, praying with them, or simply being available for God to use.Together we talk about learning to move past the fear of saying the wrong thing and stepping into the compassion that reflects the heart of Jesus Christ. You don’t have to be the most eloquent person in the room to be used by God. Compassion begins with simply being willing. When we step out in faith, God meets us there and works through even the simplest acts of love.🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or by clicking the link in our bio.We pray that every episode brings you strength and encouragement on your journey.Go be Unashamedly You!💕➡️Subscribe: unashamedlyyou.com➡️ Free Session: unashamedlyyou.com/coaching➡️Contact: unashamedlyyou.com/contact-4
Between family, work, ministry, responsibilities, and the everyday demands of life, it’s easy to slip into striving rather than resting in God. In today’s episode with Scout Parker, we talk about what it truly means to abide in God—not just as a spiritual concept, but as a daily practice that sustains us.Jesus reminds us in John 15 that He is the vine and we are the branches. Our strength, wisdom, and fruitfulness don’t come from doing more—they come from staying connected to Him. When we try to manage life on our own, exhaustion follows. But when we remain rooted in God, He provides the help, grace, and guidance we need for every season.Abiding in God allows us to navigate busy seasons, carry heavy responsibilities, and still live with peace and purpose. God never intended for us to do life alone. His presence is not just for Sunday mornings—it’s the source that sustains us in the middle of everyday in life.Congratulations to Cassadie Waits Smith and Karlie Dalton, the winners of our giveaway for the book Smooth Sailing written by the Robinettes!If you’d like to order your own copy, click the link below:https://a.co/d/02BKsu1i🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or by clicking the link in our bio.We pray that every episode brings you strength and encouragement on your journey.Go be Unashamedly You!💕➡️ Subscribe: unashamedlyyou.com➡️ Free Session: unashamedlyyou.com/coaching➡️ Contact: unashamedlyyou.com/contact-4
Marriage was never meant to be dull, distant, or disconnected. It was designed by God to be life-giving, joyful, and deeply rooted in Him. That’s why in this week’s episode with Brandy Currie, we talk about what it looks like to build a marriage that is fun, respectful, and firmly grounded in faith.She shares practical ways to keep laughter alive, how to honor one another even in disagreements, and why putting God first changes everything. Because when Christ is at the center, love doesn’t just survive — it thrives.Whether you’re newly married, decades in, or preparing for the future, this conversation will encourage you to pursue a marriage that reflects God’s heart.🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or by clicking the link in our bio.We pray that every episode brings you strength and encouragement on your journey.Go be Unashamedly You!💕➡️ Subscribe: unashamedlyyou.com➡️ Free Session: unashamedlyyou.com/coaching➡️ Contact: unashamedlyyou.com/contact-4
Continuing our series on all things love and relationships for the month of February, this week Jamie sits down with Priscilla Bueno—singer, songwriter, wife, and mom of five—to talk about how to keep your marriage strong while keeping up with the demands of life.Life doesn’t pause when marriage gets hard. Kids need attention. Work demands increase. Ministry pulls. Unexpected crises hit. And in the middle of it all, your marriage can either fracture under pressure—or become more unified than ever.In this episode, we’re talking about what it really takes to have a unified marriage. Unity isn’t the absence of stress; it’s the decision to stay aligned when everything around you feels unstable. When chaos hits, you don’t just feel stress—you feel the strength (or strain) of your foundation. The person you chose becomes your closest teammate, your spiritual covering, your emotional anchor, and your co-builder. Who you marry will either multiply your calling or compete with it.Make sure you Follow Priscilla onYouTube- https://youtube.com/@priscillabuenooficial?si=L7PSGRQvLo3Lsc2qInstagram- https://www.instagram.com/priscillajimenezbueno?igsh=czlibHF0ZG55N29n🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or by clicking the link in our bio.We pray that every episode brings you strength and encouragement on your journey.Go be Unashamedly You!💕➡️ Subscribe: unashamedlyyou.com➡️ Free Session: unashamedlyyou.com/coaching➡️ Contact: unashamedlyyou.com/contact-4

In today’s episode, Jamie and Abigail Peterson have a heartfelt and honest conversation about the difference between faith and trust— especially when life doesn’t go the way we hoped. When we walk through seasons of grief, loss, and the unimaginable reality of losing a spouse, faith can feel easy to speak about… but trust becomes the deeper journey. We’re talking about what it looks like to cling to God in the middle of heartbreak, how faith carries us through shock and survival, and how trust is slowly rebuilt in the long road of healing. This episode is for anyone navigating grief, supporting someone who is grieving, or learning how to trust God again after life has changed forever. Grief and faith can exist together. Questions and trust can exist together. You don’t have to have everything figured out to keep walking forward. Healing doesn’t happen overnight—but hope can begin today.If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who may be walking through a difficult season. Your share could be the reminder they need that they are not alone.Make sure to follow along with her journey on her podcast The Business of Widows: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-business-of-widows/id1864673590🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or by clicking the link in our bio.We pray that every episode brings you strength and encouragement on your journey.Go be Unashamedly You!💕➡️ Subscribe: unashamedlyyou.com➡️ Free Session: unashamedlyyou.com/coaching➡️ Contact: unashamedlyyou.com/contact-4

And we hope this episode reminds you that no to-do list and no amount of money spent can bring joy like the simple, irreplaceable gift of time and love.🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or by clicking the link in our bio.✨ Don’t forget to schedule your first introductory coaching session—completely free!We pray that every episode brings you strength and encouragement on your journey.Go be Unashamedly You!💕➡️ Subscribe: unashamedlyyou.com➡️ Free Session: unashamedlyyou.com/coaching➡️ Contact: unashamedlyyou.com/contact-4
