This week, we're tackling the often-overlooked challenges of practicing Natural Family Planning (NFP) during midlife and perimenopause.
From sudden cycle confusion and unpredictable charting, to shifting emotions and changes in intimacy, we share personal experiences and practical strategies for navigating this “new season” as hormones and family dynamics evolve.
If you’ve ever wondered how to handle NFP when your body and life are changing, you’ll find comfort and solidarity here.
We offer wisdom, humor, and encouragement, reminding us that midlife is a bridge to new growth, and you don’t have to walk it alone. Tune in for honest talk, spiritual insight, and a supportive community ready to journey with you.
Journal Question: “What is God teaching me about trust and surrender through this season of my fertility?”

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
