Send us Fan Mail I had the incredible privilege of sitting down with CeCe Winans AND her daughter, Ashley, for a conversation about motherhood, fame, faith, legacy and what it looks like when God continues to surprise you with what's ahead. CeCe is reaching new heights in her career in her 60s—bigger than she ever imagined—and we talk about how God continues to grow her ministry and use her in ways she couldn't have planned for herself. We also talk about the other titles that may be even more meaningful: Mom. Grandma. Mentor. And the woman pouring into the next generation. Recording this conversation at the Museum of Gospel and Christian Music in downtown Nashville, surrounded by the story of CeCe's incredible career, made it even more meaningful. But my favorite part may be hearing CeCe and Ashley talk about each other. ❤️ If you've ever wondered whether your most meaningful and fruitful years might still be ahead of you, I think this conversation will encourage you. http://www.coatdefense.com MOMMA15 for 15% OFF Thank you to our generous Got It From My Momma podcast friends!

Send us Fan Mail What happens when the dreams you once shared with your spouse begin coming true... for them, but not for you? In this deeply honest conversation, Anna Asbury sits down with host, Jennifer Vickery Smith, to share about the parts of her story that aren't easy to talk about. A wife, mother of five, artist, and the wife of Christian artist Cory Asbury, Anna talks candidly about navigating postpartum depression after each of her pregnancies, feeling hidden in motherhood, struggling with her identity, and even experiencing jealousy as she watched her husband's career flourish while her own dreams seemed to fade. But God wasn't finished writing her story. Anna shares how an ordinary Crayola paint set became the unexpected beginning of a calling she never saw coming, and how God met her in one of the hardest seasons of her life to reveal gifts she never knew she had. If you've ever wrestled with comparison, felt unseen, wondered if your dreams still mattered, or needed hope in the middle of motherhood, this conversation will remind you that God is still at work... even in the waiting. In this episode, we discuss: • Postpartum depression after five pregnancies • Marriage and supporting your spouse's calling • Identity and comparison • Feeling hidden in motherhood • Waiting on God's timing • Discovering unexpected purpose • How God can redeem seasons that feel forgotten Link to Anna's art! https://www.anna-asbury.com/ http://www.coatdefense.com MOMMA15 for 15% OFF Thank you to our generous Got It From My Momma podcast friends!

Send us Fan Mail Motherhood is beautiful, meaningful, and sometimes incredibly hard all at the same time. Today, I’m sitting down with Lynn Wilson, the mom of Christian and country singer Anne Wilson. Behind Anne’s music and success is a family story marked by deep loss, strong faith, and a purpose that continues to carry them forward. Anne’s story is pretty remarkable… no one in the family had ever heard Anne sing until she bravely offered to sing at her brother’s funeral service. Lynn shares about the heartbreak of losing her 23-year-old son Jacob, and how God began writing a story their family never could’ve imagined. We talk about motherhood, grief, faith, raising kids with purpose, and what it looks like to keep showing up even when life feels heavy. Whether you’ve followed Anne’s music for years or you’re walking through your own tough season as a mom, I think Lynn’s story will really encourage you. I’m so glad your with us…  http://www.coatdefense.com MOMMA15 for 15% OFF Thank you to our generous Got It From My Momma podcast friends!

Send us Fan Mail Today on Got It From My Momma, I’m joined by Steven Curtis Chapman and his wife, Mary Beth... two people whose lives and story have deeply impacted my own family in ways that are hard to fully put into words. If you’re a mom, you know that life brings both incredible joy and unexpected heartbreak. And in some of the hardest seasons our family has walked through, their music, their faith, and their story were a steady source of comfort and hope for us. Steven and Mary Beth have been married for 41 years, and their journey has held both beautiful highs and unimaginable lows. Through it all, they’ve continued to choose each other, and to trust God in the middle of it. Their new book, Still Here… The Long Journey Home, is a heartfelt reflection on marriage, perseverance, grief, healing, and hope. And yes, this is a first for us here on the podcast… Steven is officially our very first male guest (other than my son). But don’t worry, the topic earned him a seat on the couch, because we’re talking about something that matters to all of us: a marriage that lasts. If you’re in a season of joy, struggle, or simply longing for encouragement in your marriage or motherhood journey, this conversation is for you. http://www.coatdefense.com MOMMA15 for 15% OFF Thank you to our generous Got It From My Momma podcast friends!

Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Got it From My Momma, I sit down with Emily Cole—wife, mom of three, and co-founder of the wildly successful Savannah Bananas alongside her husband, Jesse Cole (yes, the one in the iconic yellow tux!). But behind the viral sensation and sold-out crowds is a story most people don’t see. Emily shares what it looked like to walk through uncertainty, financial risk, and seasons where nothing was guaranteed… all while holding onto a dream that felt bigger than logic. We talk about the power of believing in something before you see it, supporting your spouse through big leaps, and raising a family grounded in purpose along the way. We also dive into their heart for foster care and adoption through their organization, Bananas Foster, and how they’re using their platform to make a real difference. This conversation is for anyone who’s ever wondered:  What if we actually went for it? ✨ In this episode, we talk about: Taking risks when the outcome is unknownThe real story behind the Savannah BananasMotherhood in the middle of it allFoster care, adoption, and living with purposehttp://www.coatdefense.com MOMMA15 for 15% OFF Thank you to our generous Got It From My Momma podcast friends!

Send us Fan Mail Today’s episode is a tender and meaningful one. I’m honored to sit down with Ellie Peak Collins, the daughter of Cindy Peak, who was tragically killed in the Covenant School shooting here in Nashville. This is Ellie’s first interview, and I’m incredibly grateful for her willingness to share her heart. Our conversation is honest and raw as she talks about walking through unimaginable grief, the way her community surrounded her and her family in their darkest days, and the deep hope that continues to carry her forward. What struck me most about Ellie is the posture of her heart. She speaks about the hope of heaven, the faith her mother lived so beautifully, and the choice she’s made not to live in bitterness, even sharing the sorrow she feels for the shooter’s family. It’s a conversation about loss, faith, and the kind of hope that only God can provide. I’m so honored to share this conversation with you.  Thank you to our generous Got It From My Momma podcast friends!
