Friendship in your 40s isn’t falling apart—it’s being redefined.

In this episode of Kinda Preachy, we talk honestly about what we actually want from friendship in this stage of life—and how those wants have changed. We unpack the tension between desire and reality: the ways we’ve shown up well, the ways we’ve missed the mark, and why meaningful friendships still matter deeply, even when our capacity feels stretched thin.

Between parenting, work, emotional labor, full calendars, shifting energy, and yes… a few hormonal curveballs, we explore how faith shapes friendship when availability is limited and expectations need adjusting. We talk about what the Bible says about faithful friendship, why good friends are necessary (not optional), and how grace—for ourselves and others—keeps relationships healthy in changing seasons.

And because we wouldn’t be us, we definitely go off track and take a few detours for real-life updates along the way.

This conversation isn’t about perfect friendship—it’s about honest connection, shared grace, and learning how to love people well with what we have. Limited capacity doesn’t mean limited love, and faithful friendship looks different in every season.

Some of the most powerful words shaping our lives were never spoken by God.

In this episode of Kinda Preachy, we unpack how the voices of others—and the quiet lies of the enemy—can slowly become louder than God’s truth. From labels we didn’t choose to repeated messages that shaped how we see ourselves, we talk about how familiar voices can start defining us.

We share honestly about moments when fear, culture, and outside expectations blurred the line between God’s voice and everything else—and how repetition can turn lies into something that feels true. We explore why those voices stick, how they impact our faith and identity, and what it looks like to begin unlearning them.

This conversation isn’t about blame or shame—it’s about discernment, renewal, and reclaiming authority over the story we’re living. Because if God never said it, maybe we don’t have to keep carrying it.

Honest, reflective, and just preachy enough to help us all listen more closely to the only voice that actually matters.

Imposter syndrome isn’t just feeling unqualified—it’s also being afraid to be who you actually are.

In this episode of Kinda Preachy, we unpack the tension between knowing God has gifted us and still shrinking back to fit in. Sometimes imposter syndrome looks like insecurity. Other times, it shows up as self-editing, quieting bold parts of ourselves, or choosing comfort over calling.

We share honestly about current church and job hurts—Kacie navigating how to apply her pastoral gifts in a new role, and Steph wrestling with feeling out of sync in her church home while still longing to belong.

We talk about how easy it is to follow the world instead of the Word, especially when bold faith feels risky. And we ask the hard question: What would it look like to live fully seen, deeply rooted, and unapologetically faithful in our current and new relationships?

If you’ve ever felt both unqualified and quietly afraid to be who you were created to be—this one’s for you. Honest, hopeful, and just preachy enough.
