We're doing a little check in on our spiritual habits with my friend Hanna Seymour! This is a beautiful reset episode (Episode 1069) that helped me to think about the back half of the year differently and continue with what is working and release what isn’t. Don't miss:The Power of Small, Everyday Spiritual Habits. You can also watch it on YouTube.

Our most requested guest on the Single Purpose League podcast has been Lisa Harper, and she's joining us this month as we talk about what to do with the longing to be chosen, known, and loved. THIS IS SUCH A GOOD EPISODE. Lisa was so generous with her story, and her new study, Song of Songs: The Love We Long For is perfect in helping us unpack this conversation.
Our Chapter Meeting for SPL is Tuesday, July 21 at 7pm CT, so if you're not married, it's a great time to jump in, listen to Lisa's episode, and come chat about it with us on Tuesday! You can join SPL HERE.

What you may or may not know, is that every time you listen to a Spiritually Stronger episode this year, you’re hearing Riley Clemmons' voice in the intro and outro music! Last year, I got to sit down with Riley and Dave Haywood and WRITE THIS SONG to go along with our podcast series and I am SOOO thrilled that we get to finally release the whole song to you TODAY. So wherever you listen to music, you can now stream OUR SONG SPIRITUALLY STRONGER that is beautifully recorded and performed by Riley Clemmons.
Listen to the entire Spiritually Stronger song HERE!

Hi Friend! What if the only thing standing between you and the life you really want is the story you've been telling yourself about why you can't have it? That's the question I've been wrestling with, and it's the reason I wrote my new book, Don't Let That Hold You Back. I'M SO EXCITED TO PUT THIS IN YOUR HANDS THIS FALL! If you've ever felt stuck by fear, finances, burnout, your age, your relationship status, or simply a life that hasn't turned out the way you imagined, this book is for you....
