It’ll Always Be Fun with Brooke and Miranda

It has been a minute since we’ve had a good old-fashioned catch-up episode with just Brooke and Miranda, and wow… apparently we had some things to say.

In this episode, we’re talking about the fact that school is almost out, summer is basically kicking the door down, and all of our kids are counting the minutes until the pool opens. Meanwhile, Miranda has approximately 47 summer projects planned and still has not finished the swing… so yes, thoughts and prayers are welcome. For the swing. For Brooke. For everyone involved.

We also recap one of the funniest nights we’ve had in a long time: painting portraits of each other. Miranda’s portrait of Brooke may not have been museum-worthy, but it did at least resemble a human woman. Brooke’s portrait of Miranda, however, raises one very important question: has Brooke ever actually looked at Miranda’s face? Like… ever?

And because we are nothing if not committed to spreading joy and chaos, we took the rest of the paint kits to Brooke’s mom’s house for Mother’s Day, where her mom and grandma painted portraits of each other—and it was honestly one of the funniest, sweetest, most fun things ever. We may have accidentally started a family tradition… or possibly a support group.

But in true It’ll Always Be Funfashion, this episode isn’t just laughs. We also talk about some of the heavier things we’ve been carrying, the ways we’re both working, growing, healing, and making progress in our own lives. Growth is beautiful, but let’s be honest—it can also be painful, annoying, humbling, and deeply rude. Still, it matters. And yes, we talk about our deep and abiding love for therapy because sometimes you just need someone to help you untangle the emotional junk drawer.

We laugh, we catch up, we get honest, and we end with the very real concern that Miranda may be too short for the shallow end.

Grab your coffee, your paintbrush, your emotional support pool float, and come catch up with us.

Because when we’re together, it’ll always be fun!

Psalm 119:105 says, “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.”

Sometimes we want God to light up the whole road — the full plan, the next five years, the reason behind the waiting, the way everything is going to work out. But most of the time, He gives us enough light for the next step.

And honestly? That’s where trust is built.

This Monday Minute is a reminder that we don’t have to see the whole story to keep walking with God. We just have to take the next faithful step in front of us. Because God can do a lot with one small step.

Be sure to come back Friday for another full episode, and remember, when we're together, it'll always be fun!

In the second half of our conversation with Dr. Hannah Leport, we continue talking about autism awareness and acceptance through the lens of motherhood, medicine, faith, and grace.

Hannah opens up about the importance of keeping work and home separate, how easy it can be to lose your identity in what you do, and the struggle so many people face when trying to find real community. She also shares honestly about walking through depression, the weight of carrying too much alone, and why reaching out for help matters.

We also talk about what it’s like to watch your child grow up in a world that was not built for the way their brain works — and the grief, fear, love, and advocacy that can come with that. Hannah speaks to the deep importance of special needs teachers, the beauty of really knowing who your child is, and learning to see them beyond labels, expectations, or fear.

This episode is honest, tender, and full of grace — for our kids, for the people walking alongside them, and for ourselves as we learn how to love them well.

Because sometimes the journey looks different than we expected… but grace meets us there. 💛

And remember — when we’re together, it’ll always be fun! 🫶🏼

Is God disappointed in us when we feel anxious?

In this Monday Minute, Hannah Curry reflects on Psalm 103:8 and the comforting truth that God is not frustrated by our anxiety. The more she has walked with Him, the more she has come to see that God’s heart is compassionate, patient, and full of mercy.

God is not asking us to come to Him after we’ve found peace. He is asking us to come to Him because He already is peace.

Anxiety may make us feel like we have to get ourselves together before we approach Him, but God meets us with gentleness right in the middle of it. He knows our frame, He understands our fear, and He is not disappointed by our need for Him.

Take a minute today to be reminded: you don’t have to bring God a calmer version of yourself. You can bring Him the anxious one — and let His peace meet you there.

And remember, when we’re together, it’ll always be fun!

In this episode, we’re closing out our Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month series with part one of a powerful two-part conversation with Hannah Leport.

Hannah is a family physician, a wife, and a mom to two children, one who is on the autism spectrum. She brings such a tender, honest perspective — not only as a medical professional, but as a mother who is learning, growing, grieving, celebrating, apologizing, advocating, and giving grace along the way.

In part one, Hannah talks with us about the way labels can help us understand, but they never get to define who we are. She shares honestly about the fear she carries for her child’s future, the importance of not trying to operate from an empty cup, and what it looks like to trust God with the parts of our children’s stories we cannot control.

We also talk about salvation, her son’s relationship with God, the humility of asking your child for forgiveness, and the grace we all need — for our children, for others, and for ourselves.

This conversation is honest, thoughtful, faith-filled, and deeply human. It’s a beautiful reminder that every person is more than a diagnosis, more than a label, and more than what the world may assume.

We’re so grateful to Hannah for helping us close this series with wisdom, vulnerability, and hope.

🎧 Listen Friday, and join us for part two next week.

And remember… when we’re together, it’ll always be fun!
