Planted in Purpose Podcast

Planted in Purpose Podcast

Planted in Purpose is a faith-forward podcast where I sit down with guests—and sometimes just the Lord—to talk through the real, the refining, and the redeemed. From military life and motherhood to personal growth and calling, each episode is biblically rooted and full of encouragement. You’ll also find The Garden Bench, a quiet corner of short, devotional-style reflections to help you pause, exhale, and meet God in the middle of your story.

Sometimes the most unexpected seasons plant the deepest roots.

Today, I’m sharing something tender and real—just me and the Lord. Just us—talking through how this podcast came to be. From birthing newborn twins and caring for five little ones in January… to moving across the world to South Korea, four months later… to grieving the greatest loss I’ve ever known… This is the story behind the purpose.

 

No guests. No fluff. Just the...

This episode has been burning on my heart, and I’m so grateful to finally share it with you.

 

We’re diving into how a woman’s words can shape, heal, or harm—in our marriages, our friendships, our parenting, and even the way we speak to ourselves behind closed doors. We’re opening the Word, confronting some hard truths, and breaking down how we can stop repeating the same harmful cycles.

 

Stick around ‘til the end— I’ll be sharing...

My husband, Terry, and I finally got a chance to sit down and share our story—our why behind military life, what it’s been like navigating faith and family through transition and service, and what legacy really means when you’re leading both on the battlefield and in the home.

This first episode is straight from the heart. I’m sharing my why—the journey behind this podcast, the doors God opened through platforms like CNN, Military Families Magazine, and United on the Rok, and how those opportunities stirred something deeper in me: the need to tell my story fully, honestly, and in my own voice.

 

I’m beyond grateful for the honors I’ve received—and now, I’m walking in obedience by creating a space of my o...
