This is a podcast for anyone carrying more than they expected. I'm Rachel, a mom of 2 and wife to Robert who lives with diabetes, kidney failure and limb loss. Life didn't turn out the way we planned--but we are raising our girls, holding on to hope and learning to pick up the pieces each day and live the best life possible. This is a space for honest stories about caregiving, marriage, motherhood, faith and the quiet strength it takes to keep showing up. Whether you're deep in it or just figuring things out, I know it helps to realize you're not alone. Let's carry it together.

  • Putting the Pieces Together

    Putting the Pieces Together
    Dec 20 2025

    In this episode, I'm back talking about where things stand and what might come next. It's a bit of a reflection on our day-to-day life. I acknowledge how far we've come, but also that there are still pieces shifting and our story is still unfolding. I share a bit about what I've learned through sharing our story via podcast, what I hope to continue to share in this space and also where to find more content outside of this space.

    If you are carrying something hard, I invite you to join me in this place to share your story and journey. You can contact me at thelifewecarry@gmail.com. I'd love to connect with you. Be sure to follow us at The Life We Carry on Facebook and Instagram. You can also check out my Substack, The Life We Carry, for more introspective content that may or may not be related to caregiving.

  • The Second Loss

    The Second Loss
    Nov 28 2025

    In this episode, Robert joins me again to talk through his second leg amputation. Medically--we knew what to expect, but emotionally there was more freedom lost for Robert this time around. One thing we can both agree on is that with every part of our story there is the process of initial impact, working through the healing and finding our new normal.

  • I Didn't Sign Up for This--Trusting in the Storm

    I Didn't Sign Up for This--Trusting in the Storm
    Oct 12 2025

    In this episode of The Life We Carry, I open up about the strain chronic illness and caregiving have placed on our marriage — the quiet toll, the moments we considered walking away, and the faith it takes to stay when things are hard. With Robert’s health challenges as the backdrop, this is a story about trusting God in the middle of the storm and learning to love through the mess. If you’ve ever struggled and wondered is it worth it? This one's for you.
