The Silence That Raised Us

In this episode, we open up about the weight of religious shame, family dysfunction, and unspoken grief.. and how it shaped our marriage in ways we didn't even realize.

I talk about growing up in a home where silence was survival, where divorce was never an option, and where my voice often felt too small to be heard. We dive into how my parents' toxic patterns and the church expectations made me hard, made me the "strong one", and made is nearly impossible to trust anyone, including Brentt.

This isn't just about faith. It's about the ways we were both shaped by what we didn't talk about, loss, pain, love and leadership, and how we're now learning to break those cycles for ourselves and our kids.

If you've ever felt trapped by family expectations, faith, or silence.... this conversation will feel like a deep breath you didn't  ...
