Description

This week’s episode is a real and vulnerable look inside our family as we navigate the college decision process with our two oldest girls — and the spiritual lessons that have come from it. 💭

What started as conversations about college choices turned into a deep reminder that even our best intentions can drift off course when we stop inviting the Holy Spirit to lead.

In this episode, Tracy shares how she and her husband realized they’d done a great job providing opportunity for their kids — but hadn’t always connected those opportunities back to God’s faithfulness. Through prayer, reflection, and conviction, they’re learning to trust the Holy Spirit to guide their girls toward the path He has planned, not just the one that looks right on paper.


💡 Key Scriptures:

  • John 16:8 – The Holy Spirit convicts and reveals truth.
  • Romans 12:2 – Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
  • Proverbs 3:5–6 – Trust in the Lord with all your heart.
  • Philippians 4:7 – The peace of God guards our hearts and minds.
  • Isaiah 30:21 – “This is the way; walk in it.”

💬 Big Takeaway:
Even good intentions can lead us somewhere we didn’t mean to go if we’re not asking God to guide our steps. True peace always follows obedience.

Let’s talk about all of it. Ready? Let’s go!


Resources Mentioned in This Episode:


💤 Peptide of the Week: Restored (Sleep Support)

✨ 1/3 of people aren’t sleeping enough

✨ 35% sleep less than 7 hours a night

✨ 85% say they still wake up tired

Does that sound familiar? 😴

Restored helps balance your cortisol — your stress hormone — so your body can rest deeply and wake up refreshed. It increases both REM and deep sleep, supports lower inflammation, and can even help your body release unwanted fat by regulating stress response.

Unlike sedatives or melatonin, Restored doesn’t knock you out — it helps your body communicate naturally to do what it was designed to do: rest, repair, and restore.
