In this episode, Melessa and Stephanie catch up on her big move into a new home and the lessons that come with fresh beginnings. As she and her husband sort through what to keep and what to let go, Melessa reflects on how far they’ve come as a couple—learning to communicate better, compromise, and create a space that truly fits this new chapter of life.

Stephanie gives Melessa her latest “homework”: to list what she’s proud of and what she hopes to be proud of next. From raising her kids and managing life during her husband’s deployment to finally landing her dream job in grant writing, Melessa shares how intention and purpose shape her journey. They also chat about Move Your Stuff, Change Your Life by Karen Rauch Carter, exploring how small shifts in your environment—and your mindset—can open the door to love, peace, and possibility.
