  This conversation meant so much to me. I had the absolute honor of sitting down with Lauren Scruggs Kennedy—NYT best-selling author, lifestyle and wellness blogger, and founder of The Clean Sweep, The Stranded Shop, and the LSK Foundation. You may also know her as the wife of Jason Kennedy (yep, that Jason Kennedy from E! News), but Lauren’s story is truly her own—and it’s powerful. We talked about so much—from her early years and big career dreams, to the devastating accident that changed her life forever. Lauren shares so openly about the role that faith, family, and community played in her healing—and how she’s turned her pain into purpose every step of the way. She also shared beautiful reflections on miraculous encounters, the kind that stop you in your tracks and remind you that God is always near. We talked about motherhood, health, living holistically, and what it means to stay vulnerable and grounded through life’s hardest moments. Whether you’re walking through your own hard season or just need a dose of hope and perspective, Lauren’s story will speak right to your heart. In this episode, we talk about: 💥 The accident that changed her life—and how she rebuilt 💛 Faith, miracles, and prophetic moments 👯‍♀️ Creating safe spaces for women to heal together 🍼 Motherhood, birth, and growing as a family 🌱 A toxin-free lifestyle and holistic health routines 💬 Why vulnerability is key to true healing Thank you, Lauren, for this conversation with us about what it means to believe in the good—even when life takes the most unexpected turns.

  This episode is such a fun one! I sat down with my sweet friend Marissa Gilliland, wife to NASCAR driver Todd Gilliland, and we had the best heart-to-heart about life lately—from big moves to little routines and everything in between. Marissa opened up about their recent move (hello, new house dreams!) and what it's really like supporting Todd through all the twists and turns of racing season. We talked about the highs, the lows, and how they make it all work—especially when life on the road gets hectic. She also shared her love for Pure Barre (fellow fitness girlies, you'll love this part), what keeps her grounded outside of racing, and how she and Todd stay connected through it all. From favorite travel spots to guilty pleasure TV shows to who really wins at golf (spoiler: it’s complicated 😂), this conversation was full of laughs, honesty, and those sweet reminders that every couple has their own rhythm. Whether you’re part of the NASCAR world or just love a good behind-the-scenes peek into real life and relationships, this one’s for you. 🫶 Here’s what we cover: 🏡 New house, new routines, and making a space feel like home 💕 How she and Todd met + their love story ✈️ Life on the road, favorite tracks, and travel memories 💪 Finding personal passions outside of racing (shoutout Pure Barre!) 🐾 Pets, pillow talk, and nighttime quirks 🤍 The beauty and challenge of supporting someone through a wild career If you’re looking for a workout that actually fits your life (especially as a busy mom!), check out the brand-new Overload 30 program.

• 16. Danica Patrick: Dating, Health Hacks, Patriotism & Speaking Her Truth

  In this episode of Believe in the Good podcast, I had the absolute honor of sitting down with the one and only Danica Patrick—yes, that Danica Patrick! She’s not only an icon in the racing world, but she's also boldly carving out a new lane for herself, and I loved getting to hear her heart. We talked about everything from her transition out of NASCAR and into the world of political conversations (she’s interviewed everyone from Tucker Carlson to Tulsi Gabbard and even Donald Trump!) to how her deep love of country was shaped by her upbringing and her time on the track. Danica also opened up about her health journey—she’s seriously a wealth of knowledge when it comes to fitness, recovery tools, and all kinds of holistic hacks (hello, hyperbaric chambers and EMDR therapy). We even got into her dating life and what she’s looking for in a partner, plus how her spirituality has evolved over the years.
