Beyond Broke and Hungry Is Back —And So Am I

Two years ago, I went quiet. Not because the mission was over — because I needed to actually live it.

Let Me Be Honest With You

When I started Beyond Broke and Hungry, I had a lot of passion and a lot of questions. I was figuring out my health, my finances, my faith — all at the same time — and the podcast felt like a place to process it all out loud. That energy was real. That mission was real.

But somewhere along the way, I got tired. I was burning out quietly, showing up for an audience while privately running on empty. So I did something that felt scary at the time: I stopped.

No dramatic announcement. No farewell episode. I just... stepped away. And in doing that, I learned one of the most important lessons I'll probably ever learn — that rest isn't failure. It's often exactly what God uses to prepare you for what's next.

A Lot Has Changed. That's Kind of the Point.

In the past two years, my life has genuinely shifted. I got married. I've been growing my business in ways that have stretched and challenged me — including seasons where God pruned things I thought I needed, only to show me what I actually did. I've deepened my CrossFit practice, not as a performance, but as a discipline. I've gotten more intentional about faith, about how I spend my time, and about what it really means to be well.

Wellness looked one way to me in my twenties — lots of hustle, lots of optimization, some anxiety underneath it all. It looks different now. Quieter in some ways. More grounded. More honest about what a balanced life actually requires when you're a wife, an entrepreneur, and a woman of faith trying to hold it all together without losing herself in the process.

That maturity is what I'm bringing back to the mic.

What Beyond Broke and Hungry Is Now

The name still fits, maybe even more now than when I first chose it. Because honestly? Life is still a balancing act. Career, relationships, health, finances, faith — and somewhere in the middle of all of it, trying to pursue the dreams God placed on your heart without completely losing your mind.

That's what this show is about. Real life wellness. Not perfection, not extremes, not the highlight reel. The everyday habits, the mindset shifts, the quiet faith moments that help us build lives that are actually strong and meaningful.

Some episodes will feature conversations with wellness experts. Others will just be me — reflecting on what I'm learning, what I'm struggling with, what God is showing me. No filters. No pretending I've arrived.

Mark Your Calendar: May 1st

Beyond Broke and Hungry officially relaunches on May 1st — and this time, I’m doing things a little differently.

Rather than dropping one episode and hoping momentum carries it, I’m launching with a bulk of episodes all at once. So from day one, you’ll have something real to dig into. No waiting a week between conversations. Just content that meets you where you are, right when you need it.

Doing This With Intention — Not Hustle

I want to be transparent about something: I’m approaching this relaunch with a lot of intentionality around bandwidth. Because here’s the truth — I have a business to run and a marriage to tend to, and both of those things are sacred to me. I’m not willing to burn out again trying to do everything at full volume all the time.

So rather than overcommitting and going quiet again, I’d rather be honest: this show will grow at a pace that’s sustainable and real. The bulk launch is my way of showing up fully right out of the gate, while also giving myself room to breathe and keep showing up consistently over time.

Because at the end of the day, what drives me isn’t a content calendar. It’s the woman on the other side of the earbuds who is figuring it out just like I am. I genuinely believe this is a calling God placed on me — to share, to be honest, to help other women feel less alone in the juggle. That passion hasn’t dimmed one bit. If anything, two years of living and growing has made it louder.

If You’re Figuring It Out As You Go, You’re in the Right Place

I’ve spent two years becoming someone who has more to say — and more importantly, more to give. Not because I have it all figured out, but because I’ve sat in enough uncertainty, enough transition, enough quiet to know that the messy middle is where growth actually happens.

Whether you’re a longtime listener or you’re finding this show for the first time — welcome. Welcome to a space built for the woman who is doing her best in every area of her life, who loves God, who takes her health seriously, who is building something, and who still has hard days and unanswered questions.

That’s who I made this for. That’s who I still am.

Beyond Broke and Hungry is back. And I’m so glad to be back with you.
