The speaker addresses listeners of the Milk and Honey podcast, explaining her hiatus and the events leading up to it.

After realizing the toll it was taking, she decided to step back, cancel engagements, and focus on her mental health and her family. During this period, she felt a divine calling to serve women and shifted her focus to advocacy, policy, and community work. She founded the Supported Wife Society, which aims to support ambitious women in their marriages, and discusses the dynamics of her own supportive relationship. The speaker announces the return of her podcast with a new focus on leadership and marriage, encouraging listeners to engage with new resources and episodes.

(00:00):
Hi friends.
If you are a regular listener orwere a regular listener of the
Milk and Honey podcast, youprobably wonder what the heck
happened to me and to this show.
So I'm just gonna tell youeverything that happened between
January and where we are.
I wanna just tell you kind ofwhere things landed, what

(00:23):
happened, how we got here, andthe direction I'm heading now.
Hopefully there is enough gracefor me in this season.
You probably know that I washelping to build a company,
kingdom Alliance and, you know,they're wonderful people.
Everything, you know, it's fine.

(00:43):
It was really taking a gigantictoll on my mental health.
I was working more than myhusband and making.
Less than my husband.
and I had so much like hope inthe vision and where we were

(01:05):
going.
And the end of January, Istarted taking the level two
version of our leadershipacademy.
And during that academy, youknow, we had accountability
partners, everything waswonderful.

(01:25):
And I sat down week one with myaccountability partner and you
know, she's lemon, how are you?
And I was like, oh, I'm good.
You know, I gave her the verystandard diplomatic, cheerful,
you know, I'm former cheerleaderanswer.
And she looked at me and shesaid, no lemon.

(01:45):
How are you?
And I was like, I'm okay, youknow?
And so then she asked me a thirdtime, she said, no, really, how
are you?
And whatever she did, I willtell you, and I just talked to
her the other day, but what herreally seeing me and knowing
that I just kept performing atthis very high level.

(02:08):
And she knew there was somethinggoing on underneath the surface,
and when she asked me a thirdtime, that was it.
I started sobbing.
I mean uncontrollably sobbing.
And if you know me, I am not acrying person.
I very rarely cry.
That's probably something Ishould work out with a
therapist, but.

(02:29):
It just is the way it, I'm not adeep feeling person.
I actually sat down with apastor one time about that.
I was like, I feel like I don'tfeel as deeply as a lot of
people do.
And he was like, okay.
But the Bible says your feelingsare fickle.
And so if you have faith andit's not just based on how you
feel in the moment, then you'reokay.
So I just started sobbing and Iunloaded a little bit of where I

(02:53):
was at and just the struggle Iwas having.
Mentally, emotionallyspiritually, like all the ways
that I was struggling.
And so afterward, you know,after I'd calmed down a little
bit and felt awful for unloadingon this poor woman it's not
necessarily what she asked for.

(03:13):
I called somebody corporatelyand.
You know, I was just like, I'mstruggling.
And I told her where I wasstruggling and I again started
sobbing.
Now, the second time, in amatter of two hours, I am
sobbing uncontrollably, and thatis again not normal for me.

(03:35):
And she said that she wasn'tsurprised that she was
anticipating me to break at somepoint.
She knew that my breakdown wascoming and.
I was like, okay, that doesn'tmake me feel good either.
It doesn't make me feel goodthat you're anticipating me to

(03:55):
fall apart at the seams.
And that's exactly what theywere anticipating.
And so she told me to take sometime and to just decompress and
do what I need to do for me.
And so thankfully I live inSouth Georgia and.
It was in the seventies, thefirst week in February here, so

(04:16):
I canceled every single meetingI had.
I didn't produce a podcastbecause I didn't wanna show up
fake.
I didn't wanna show up andpretend that I was okay when I
wasn't, And I taught myleadership academy'cause I made
a commitment to show up andteach that.
And that class gave me so muchlife.
It was all women who had nevertaken it before.

(04:37):
And so they're having these big,amazing breakthroughs and that
was life giving.
I listened to books on Audiblethat had nothing to do with
business, just fiction.
I just enjoyed, I was presentwith my family and God just.
He asked me why I was hiding somuch of myself.
He's like, why are you puttingon all of these expectations and

(05:01):
why are you carrying things thatI didn't ask you to carry?
And so I was like, okay, likewhat does that mean, you know?
And just downloaded.
Just so much of who I am andwhat matters to me, and the fact
that I had been downplayingthings that mattered to me.
He was like, go go forth withthis.
And so I sold every intentionof, you know, being a part of KA

(05:25):
and doing things with KA and gotanother plans.
I'll just say that God had otherplans.
My time at Kingdom Alliance cameto an end So my time there had
ended and so I was like, what amI supposed to do?
You know, what am I doing?
And so I went pretty like headdeep like headfirst into what I

(05:51):
was doing with Junior League andI love Junior League.
It's amazing.
And I will say in March I hadbeen nominated for a leadership
role with the league.
And so that got voted on inMarch the very, first Monday in
March.
And the very next day I steppedinto my leadership role three

(06:12):
months early because the person.
Who had that role, like she wasgoing on maternity leave.
So it just made sense for us allto start early rather than try
to find a replacement for threemonths.
That just doesn't make sense.
So I did that.
I went up to the capitol withour state public affairs
committee and got you know, Iwas voted on to the leadership

(06:35):
board for the state publicaffairs committee.
And so I just went all in onstuff that I felt mattered.
Right.
I was looking at.
Advocacy and policy, and I wasdoing work in the community and
just building relationshipsaround me instead of looking at
business.
And I really just kind of putbusiness on hold for six months,

(07:00):
to be perfectly honest, until Ikind of figured out what I was
doing, what I wanted to do.
And thankfully, Glen gave me thespace to go do that, and I could
really just.
Dive into real, genuinerelationships.
I could dive into work thatmattered.
I could spend way more time withthe family, and it was such a,

(07:21):
it was such a need for like mymental health.
I needed that space so badly.
And so when I took my hiatus inFebruary, when I shut kind of
everything down, immediately,rapid fire.
The Lord had given me like bigvision on what I was supposed to
do, and the, you know, he toldme to go out and serve women in

(07:45):
a very specific capacity.
And so I just started talkingabout it a few weeks ago and the
response was phenomenal.
People, women were coming to meand sharing such intimate things
about their life and theirmarriage.
I was like, okay, God.
Is this what I'm supposed to do?

(08:06):
And the favor came and I havejust shifted everything that I'm
kind of doing now.
But it really was a truly likeeye-opening, restful time that I
absolutely needed and I am justso grateful for.
And where are we now?
So where I am at today is I justopened the Doors to the

(08:33):
Supported Wife Society.
So if you're listening to thisbefore Thursday and you're
interested I have a foundingmember rate going until
Thursday.
So I had all this space, right?
I just said, Glen gave me somuch space to not worry about
producing an income.

(08:53):
Glen gave me all this space towork on advocacy things and step
into leadership with the league,both at a state level and at a
local level, which.
You know, I was kind of flooredby, since I'm new, I only joined
the league in August.
It's been a full year since I'vebeen a member of the Junior
League.
And so I'm like, okay, it'samazing.

(09:13):
You know, like I just have somuch freedom.
And he, you know, wasencouraging me to go to we had a
cheers for charity thing and Iliterally had to go drink wine
for charity.
Glen's, like unwavering support.
And so I started just talking topeople and they're like, what
are you how does that work?
How does that dynamic work?
And I was confused.

(09:35):
And then I talked to, I justkept having conversations with
my friends and they would say,well, you know.
I run a business, I am thedirector at this company or you
know, whatever sort of thingthey're doing.
They had very like highachieving, they were very
ambitious women and they'relike, but I don't turn that off

(09:56):
at home.
And so I'm also leading in mymarriage.
That's not how it wasnecessarily when we were dating
or early on in our marriage.
And they were frustrated and soall of them assumed that's what
was happening.
They're like, aren't you likerunning the show at home?
Is that why Glenn's okay withit?
Because like you told him, andI'm like, no, my husband
actually gets mad at me if Idon't take opportunity.

(10:18):
And so I'm like, he's my biggestcheerleader.
Truly.
He is my biggest cheerleader.
But I also, I mean, I've livedin Savannah now for seven and a
half years.
I still need my GPS to getcertain places.
I just the other day, left ajunior league meeting from

(10:38):
headquarters.
And was able to get home withoutmy GPS.
That is like how I, he, I mean,he just drive, I'm a passenger
princess.
I literally, I don't payattention.
I'm like reading a book.
I'm like scrolling TikTok whilehe is driving.
I'm like taking a nap, whichI've never been able to do
before.

(10:58):
I just shut my brain off.
Like I don't have to think aboutthose things.
I don't plan date nights.
If there is something going onwith the kids, I mean, he has my
back 110%.
Like I don't have to, I justdon't, I don't think about those
things.
And so because of that, I feelvery lucky that I think it gives
me the privilege to go and dothe advocacy work that I do to

(11:20):
serve in these other leadershiproles.
But then also to be fullypresent with the kids, to be
fully present when I'm with myfriends.
To be just a fully presentperson in all areas of my life
because Glen leads in ourmarriage.
I am not I just, I don't have tobe overly independent.
I have no qualms asking if Ineed help or if I'm overwhelmed.

(11:42):
I tell him, and he knows, and heimmediately picks up, you know,
where I'm lacking.
We are supposed to be acompliment to each other.
And so when I realized that wassomething that I had and not
everybody had, and I'm like, Ithink you can have it I, people
were like, can you create acommunity?

(12:02):
What are you doing?
So that's what I did.
So like I mentioned two weeksago, we opened the doors.
To the supportive wife society.
We've already had people ask fora husband track Glen's gonna
start meeting with somehusbands, seeing what they want
and need so we can talk to themfrom his perspective.
What's working for us?
I'm not saying that our marriageis perfect by any means.

(12:24):
we still argue, we stillsometimes I wanna kick him in
the shin, but for all intentsand purposes It's really solid
and we're kind of blown away.
So we were just talking about itthe other day oh my gosh, we've
been together almost 10 years.
It's, that's kind of crazy tome.
So I just, yeah I feel verylucky.
And so that's the directionwe're headed.

(12:46):
So when I thought about thispodcast I was like, do I.
Do I just start a new podcast?
Do I do this one?
Do I, what do I do?
And so when I thought about it Isaid to myself, the women who've
been listening to this podcastare interested in leadership
development.
They are high achieving women.
And so maybe that is what you'refeeling in your marriage right

(13:11):
now.
Maybe in your marriage you feellike you are leading in all
areas and.
If so, then I just want you toknow, the podcast is getting a
facelift.
I will get back to regularepisodes and sharing regular
episodes with you guys and justtalking about what's going on in
our marriage.

(13:31):
Bring Glen on for a couple.
The last interview I did too,which is really fun, was with
you know, Ariel and her husband,Kyle, He talked about how he has
this very strong wife and how hehad to kind of deconstruct his
faith.
But I ki I have, I hate thatthere's such connotation around
that word.
Deconstruct church culture.

(13:52):
That's what I wanna say.
He had to deconstruct churchculture and look at what the
Bible says about women inleadership and their
capabilities and runningbusinesses and how all those
things don't emasculate him ortake away from him as a man.
And i'm excited.
That's really, and people lovethat episode.
Let me tell you, even though Ihave not put out an episode in,

(14:14):
seven months now, it isconsistently being downloaded
every single week and not justone or two.
I'm talking hundreds ofdownloads every single week.
So that tells me that is a topicthat is important to you who are
listening.
So I would love for you to stickaround and hang out with me.
Thank you again for the graceand for everybody who continued

(14:37):
to show up, even though I took alittle mental break which I
hated doing, but it wascompletely necessary.
So that brings me to a fewthings.
one, I have episodes of the Milkand Honey podcast that are
unreleased.
So you guys let me know what youwant me to do with them.

(15:00):
I could email them outsomewhere.
I could put them in a Googledrive where you guys can have
access to them.
Some of them are finances, someof them are redemption stories.
So it's entirely up to you ifyou want them.
I haven't even touched themsince I recorded them in
January.
they're just sitting on mycomputer right now not doing

(15:20):
anything.
So you tell me if you wanna hearthem and how you would want to
hear them.
And then I wanna encourage youto stick around.
So I've got some new resources.
We've got the community, I justcreated a mental load audit.
So if you feel like you arecarrying the mental load of your
family in your marriage, thenyou're gonna wanna download

(15:40):

go to lemon price.co/audit.

and take your notes in there.
So it's not complicated.
I don't want complicatedanymore.

So that is there for you.
