I’ve been a little MIA - and yes, I’m going to talk about it but also no, I’m not telling you everything 😅 Before you worry, everyone is healthy, my marriage is strong, and things are okay. But life has shifted in a way that requires a little more privacy, a little more wisdom, and a lot more trust. In this episode, I’m sharing what I can like including why not everything belongs on the front porch, how I’m navigating boundaries while still showing up online, and what this season is teaching me. We’re also diving into a JOYFUL Report (you know I love these) from random current obsessions to deeper lessons about receiving help and letting go. And I’ll take you with me to Colorado, where I had one of the sweetest reminders that I don’t always need answers from God, sometimes I just need to sit with Him.

]]> 2974 My African Diary | What I'm Seeing and Learning in Kenya I’m recording this episode from Africa and it’s unlike anything I’ve experienced before. In this episode, I’m sharing a real-time look at what we’ve been doing here: visiting neighborhoods and slums, walking through schools, sitting in family homes, attending church, and hearing firsthand stories from people who are shaping their communities in powerful ways. You’ll hear about the joy and energy inside classrooms, the pride families have in their homes, the faith woven into everyday life, and the moments that surprised me most along the way. This isn’t a polished highlight reel, though! It’s a journalistic snapshot of what I’m seeing, learning, and processing as I go. Some of these stories are light and joyful. Some are sobering. All of them are human. If you’ve ever wondered what life actually looks like beyond the headlines or what it feels like to step into another part of the world and really pay attention, this episode will take you with me.

]]> 2878 31 Things in 31 Years | Episode 360 Turning 31 has me reflecting and not in a highlight-reel kind of way, but in the real, lived-in, God-meets-the-mess kind of way. In this episode, I’m sharing 31 things I’ve learned in 31 years and some hard-won, some lighthearted, some deeply spiritual, and some that only make sense after walking through motherhood, grief, growth, and a whole lot of changing your mind along the way. This isn’t a list of life hacks or a “here’s how I got it all together” moment (because…ya know….lol). It’s more like sitting on the couch together talking about what’s actually shaped me like faith, friendship, boundaries, joy, obedience, expectations, and learning to love my life even when I don’t like every part of it. If you’re in a season of reflection, transition, or just need someone to put words to things you’ve been feeling but haven’t been able to name yet then this one’s for you.

]]> 3140 The Best Way to Look at the New Year! | Episode 359 Pull up a chair and let’s talk. 🤍 In this cozy solo episode of Real Talk, I’m taking you with me as I close the door on 2025 and crack open 2026 with honesty, intentionality, and with a lot of heart! I’m sharing what I’m carrying forward (hello, momentum with margin), what I’m leaving behind (looking at you, hustle culture 👋), and how I’m thinking about joy, faith, purpose, and community in this next season. We’ll talk about choosing depth over noise, letting joy be a practice instead of just a personality, honoring the season you’re actually in, and why rushing, over-explaining, and all-or-nothing thinking are officially off the guest list. This episode is less about reinvention and more about refinement slow steps, real grace, and trusting that small, faithful choices add up over time. I’m also giving you a little sneak peek at what’s coming next: a fresh look and feel for the podcast, upcoming travel (including Kenya!!! 🤍), new speaking opportunities, and what’s stirring in my heart as I begin writing my second book. If you’re heading into 2026 craving more joy, more clarity, and a little permission to move at a human pace this one’s for you. Come sit with me!

]]> 783 Christmas Traditions We're OBSESSED With! | Episode 357 There’s something about Christmas that invites us to slow down, lean in, and do the same things every year on purpose. In this episode, I’m sharing the Christmas traditions our family can’t imagine the season without—the big ones, the small ones, and the ones that started on accident and somehow became sacred. We’re talking cozy mornings, childhood throwbacks, foods that instantly feel like home, and the little rhythms that anchor us when the season feels loud or rushed. Some of these traditions are joyful and playful, some are deeply meaningful, and all of them remind us that joy is often found in repetition—not perfection. If you’re craving ideas to make this season feel more grounded, more connected, or just more fun, this conversation is for you. Come borrow a tradition (or two), feel a little less pressure to do it all, and be reminded that the most memorable moments are usually the simplest ones.

]]> 752 How Do You Trust God After the Unthinkable? with Amber Smith | Episode 356 When country music star Granger Smith and his wife, Amber Emily Smith, lost their three-year-old son, River, their world stopped. In the depths of unimaginable grief, Amber found herself on the bathroom floor—empty, aching, and crying out to God for even a thread of hope. That moment didn’t erase the pain but it did begin a story of redemption. Now the author of The Girl on the Bathroom Floor and the host of the Arise with Amber podcast, Amber joins me on Real Talk with Rachel Awtrey for a raw, hope-filled conversation about loss, faith, and learning how to live with both grief and joy in the same breath. We talk about how God met her in the darkest place, how healing didn’t come all at once, and how beauty can still rise from ashes. This episode of Real Talk with Rachel Awtrey is tender, powerful, and deeply sacred. If you’ve ever wondered where God is when your life falls apart—this conversation is for you.

]]> 2318 Sweatpant Jeans, Loud Christmas, and Other Things I’m Obsessed With | Episode 355 It’s time for this month’s J.O.Y.F.U.L. Report!!! It's basically a big cozy catch-up on everything happening over here. I’m chatting about what we’re jumping into (Rally growing, Thomas’ new flying gig, holiday life, needlepointing… yes, really), plus the things I’m loving right now like Erin McDermott jewelry, sweatpant jeans, and loud colorful Christmas everything. I’m also sharing what I’m learning lately!! From paying attention to friction, to letting go of things that drain me, to getting honest about expectations, alcohol, and the hard stuff I usually try to avoid. We’ll talk about the books I’m reading, how TikTok has somehow become my new search engine, and a few unfiltered thoughts about the internet being - well - the internet. And then I’m giving you a little peek at what’s ahead: more in-person interviews, Phone-In Fridays, and the "Hey Rach" Hotline where you can literally leave me a voicemail. Come hang out!!

]]> 3019 Untold Stories We Just Had to Share with Ellie Holcomb | Episode 353 Today I sat down with the incredible Ellie Holcomb, and wow!!!! this conversation felt like a deep breath. We talked about what it really looks like to be on the hunt for God in our everyday lives like when you’re folding laundry, driving carpool, or wondering what’s next. Ellie shared honest and practical wisdom about parenting, trusting God with our kids, and the funny, holy moments that happen in between. We laughed over real-life stories (the kind only moms can tell), talked about how to keep your heart soft to God, and how to recognize what He might be placing on your path next even when it doesn’t make sense yet. If you’re craving hope, direction, or just a reminder that you’re not alone in the chaos and calling of motherhood and faith this episode is for you!

]]> 3126 Behind the Scenes of the “On Tour” Life with Tasha Layton | Episode 349 This episode is such a treat! I had the joy of sitting down with the incredible Tasha Layton while I was hosting a special Dove Awards press event for her. Our conversation was equal parts fun and meaningful, we covered everything from motherhood and mental health to the heart behind writing songs that meet people right where they are. You’ll hear Tasha’s vulnerable reflections, hilarious stories, and a few girly things we’re both loving right now (yes, it got chatty in the best way). If you’ve ever wondered how faith, family, and creativity weave together in a life that’s both messy and magnificent, this episode is for you.

]]> 851 That’s Just Not True with Erica Gwynn | Episode 346 Are you carrying the weight of expectations, comparison, or hustle culture—and wondering why it still feels so heavy? You’re not alone.  In this episode, I sit down with author Erica Ligenza Gwynn to talk about the lies we’ve believed for far too long and the freedom that comes when we finally replace them with God’s truth. Together, we unpack common cultural mantras like “If I’m not hustling, I’m lazy” or “My feelings are my truth”—and why they leave us stuck, burned out, and empty. Erica shares how recognizing and rejecting these lies opened the door for her to live with authenticity, purpose, and joy in Christ. If you’ve ever thought, “It’s happening for everyone but me” or “I’m too messy to be loved,” this conversation is for you. You’ll walk away encouraged to spot the subtle lies shaping your story and equipped with biblical truths that offer real freedom. This is a hope-filled, honest chat for any woman ready to stop striving and start living in the unshakable truth of who God says she is.

You’re not alone.  In this episode, I sit down with author Erica Ligenza Gwynn to talk about the lies we’ve believed for far too long and the freedom that comes when we finally replace them with God’s truth. Together, we unpack common cultural mantras like “If I’m not hustling, I’m lazy” or “My feelings are my truth”—and why they leave us stuck, burned out, and empty. Erica shares how recognizing and rejecting these lies opened the door for her to live with authenticity, purpose, and joy in Christ. If you’ve ever thought, “It’s happening for everyone but me” or “I’m too messy to be loved,” this conversation is for you. You’ll walk away encouraged to spot the subtle lies shaping your story and equipped with biblical truths that offer real freedom. This is a hope-filled, honest chat for any woman ready to stop striving and start living in the unshakable truth of who God says she is.

]]> 980 Grief Isn’t Clean, But God Isn’t Done with Davey Blackburn | Episode 335 In this powerful and tender conversation, Rachel sits down with Davy Blackburn, founder of Nothing is Wasted Ministries, to talk about grief, healing, and how joy can emerge even in the darkest moments. Davy’s life was forever changed in 2015 when his wife Amanda was tragically killed during a home invasion. Since then, he has walked through the messy reality of grief while discovering the profound truth that nothing is wasted in God’s hands. This episode explores the gravity of his story, the complexities of grieving while clinging to faith, and the surprising ways hope and joy have shown up along the way. Davy also shares what he would tell himself during his darkest days, what healing looks like now, and how he’s helping others navigate their own pain through Nothing is Wasted. ⚠️ Please note: this episode contains sensitive topics, including death and a violent crime.

]]> 3225 From Poverty to Purpose: Kiwi Cook’s Unbelievable Journey | Episode 334 In this deeply moving episode, Rachel sits down with Kiwi Cook, a former Compassion International sponsored child, whose story will stop you in your tracks. Growing up in poverty overseas, Kiwi’s early life was marked by scarcity, resilience, and a dream that felt impossibly far away… until one person’s “yes” changed everything. Together, they explore what daily life looked like for Kiwi as a child, how sponsorship gave her more than just practical help, and what it feels like to now stand on the other side of her story. Kiwi brings raw honesty, contagious joy, and a powerful perspective on how love, dignity, and opportunity can ripple through generations. If you’ve ever wondered whether sponsorship really works or if your small yes could actually change a life, this is the conversation for you.

]]> 2383 Botox, Weight Loss and What God Actually Says About Our Body with Lisa Whittle | Episode 333 In a world that’s constantly telling us to change our bodies, Lisa Whittle is inviting us to reclaim them. In this powerful conversation, we sit down with Lisa to talk about her brand-new Bible study, Body and Soul: A Biblical Look at the Whole Person God Created You to Be. From anti-aging serums to fad diets and fitness fads, we’re bombarded with messages that our bodies are problems to solve. But what if—just what if—our bodies were good? What if we stopped striving and started seeing our whole selves the way God does? Lisa walks us through how Scripture talks about the body—not just in bits and pieces, but from Genesis to Revelation. This isn’t your typical body talk. It’s about rediscovering what it means to live as a whole person, made in the image of a God who doesn’t make mistakes. We talk about curves, scars, stretch marks, and faith. We get into identity, healing, and how every wrinkle can tell a story of God's faithfulness. This episode is an invitation to live well, not just spiritually—but physically, emotionally, and fully present.

In this first half of a two-part conversation, Rachel sits down with her husband, Thomas, to catch up on a year marked by deployment, parenting curveballs, and chasing big dreams.  From the boys’ muddy adventures to the behind-the-scenes of writing Rachel’s debut book, this episode feels like a warm, honest chat on the couch. They talk reentry after time apart, lessons from military life, and how joy still shows up in the middle of messy routines.  If you’re craving a real-life check-in with laughter, honest marriage talk, and big “same here” energy—you’re in the right place.

]]> 889 Healing From Your Cringy Era with Meshali Mitchell | Episode 330 We’ve all got one—that version of ourselves we’d rather forget. Maybe it’s a season marked by regret, insecurity, or hidden shame. In today’s episode, Rachel sits down with the incredible Meshali Mitchell to talk about what it looks like to heal from the “cringy” eras of our past. The ones we avoid talking about, laugh off, or silently carry shame over. Meshali shares her own story of restoration and how God didn’t just redeem those messy moments—He repurposed them for beauty, freedom, and deeper intimacy with Him. This episode is your permission slip to stop hiding, start healing, and believe that nothing is wasted in the hands of a God who restores. Whether you’re in the middle of your mess or walking out of it, this conversation will leave you encouraged, seen, and reminded that you’re never too far gone for grace.

]]> 1127 From Stages to Small Moments: Christy Nockels on Worship, Rest, and Family | Episode 329 In today’s episode, Rachel is joined by the talented singer-songwriter and podcast host Christy Nockels. You might know Christy for her moving music, her podcast Glorious in the Mundane, or her latest project—an album called A King Who Never Sleeps: Anthems for Rest. Rachel and Christy catch up in a cozy Nashville studio, reflecting on real-life connections, their shared experience at Lost Valley Ranch, and what it means when unexpected passions—like horseback riding—shape who we are. They dive deep into themes of rest, growth in hard seasons, and the gentle ways we can all care for ourselves and our families through sacred rhythms.

]]> 770 From Private Pain to Public Purpose: Annie F Downs on Grief, Joy, and Authentic Living | Part 2 If you haven’t listened to Part One yet, go ahead and start there—we lay the groundwork for what unfolds in this powerful second half of the conversation. In Part Two, Rachel and Annie pick up right where they left off: talking about the tension of living in a world where grief and joy often walk side by side. They open up about what it means to live with emotional integrity while being a public figure, how to let people in without overexposing your soul, and why boundaries are actually an act of love. Annie talks more about how writing Where Did TJ Go? helped her grieve and process as an aunt and sister, and Rachel shares the surprising ways joy keeps showing up, even in the middle of loss. There’s grace, there’s giggling, and there’s some lipstick wisdom you won’t want to miss. This one will leave you feeling seen, hopeful, and reminded that you’re not alone in your mess or your joy.

]]> 866 From Private Pain to Public Purpose: Annie F Downs on Grief, Joy, and Authentic Living | Part 1 Welcome to Part One of a truly special conversation on Real Talk. Host Rachel Awtrey sits down with the one and only Annie F. Downs—beloved author, podcaster, and everyone’s favorite “Queen of Fun.” What starts as a joyful catch-up between old friends quickly opens into something deeper as they talk about what it means to hold both joy and grief in the same hand. In this first half, you’ll hear the story of how Rachel and Annie first met, laugh at some of their classic banter (mysterious sports bras included), and gently enter the harder spaces—like navigating personal loss and the sacred timing of sharing your story. Rachel vulnerably shares her recent experience with miscarriage, while Annie offers tender reflections on co-writing Where Did TJ Go?, a children’s book about grief written after the loss of her nephew. This is an honest, compassionate, and faith-filled conversation—and it’s just getting started. Make sure to listen all the way through and then jump into Part Two, where things go even deeper.

]]> 865 Messy Parenting and Lots of Wisdom with Justin Whitmel Earley | Episode 325 If you've ever felt like you're failing because your house (or your parenting) feels messy, this conversation will feel like a deep exhale. I sat down with Justin Whitmel Earley — author of Habits of the Household, The Common Rule, Made for People, and now The Big Mess — to talk about why the real beauty in parenting often shows up in the chaos. We cover how birth order affects family dynamics, why things in parenthood are messier (and better) than we imagined, and how to make space for our kids (and ourselves) to be exactly who God made us to be—clumsy moments and all. If you're craving encouragement to loosen your grip and love your people well, this one's for you.

]]> 2253 Lower Isn’t Lesser: How Humility Awakens the Spirit with Zach Meekreebs | Episode 324 What if the breakthrough you’re craving isn’t found in doing more, shouting louder, or performing harder—but in going lower? In today’s heartfelt and powerful episode, I’m joined by Zach Meekreebs—pastor, speaker, and author of Lower: Ignite Spiritual Awakening Through Radical Humility. We talk about how humility isn’t weakness—it’s consecrated confidence. Zach shares the behind-the-scenes story of how a quiet moment of obedience at Asbury University turned into a 16-day move of God that drew tens of thousands, and why the most profound spiritual awakenings often begin not in our strength, but in our surrender. This episode is a gentle invitation to rethink what it means to make an impact, lead with integrity, and live in step with God’s spirit—in your business, parenting, ministry, and everyday life.

]]> 2147 Courageously Standing for Truth—Even When It Costs You With Leigh Allyn Baker | Episode 322 You may recognize Leigh-Allyn Baker as the hilarious mom from Good Luck Charlie on Disney Channel, but there’s so much more to her story than what we saw on screen. In this episode, Leigh-Allyn opens up about her journey through Hollywood, the courageous moments when she had to stand firm in her faith, and how God showed up in unexpected ways. We talk about what it really means to follow your convictions, even when it’s unpopular, and how creativity and purpose can bloom when the path ahead feels uncertain. This is a conversation about boldness, faith, and trusting that God makes a way—even when it looks different than we imagined.

]]> 845 Blessed Are The Spiraling with Levi Lusko | Episode 321 Ever felt like life is spiraling and you’re just trying to hold on? In this episode, Levi Lusko joins me to talk about what it means to spiral—not as a sign of failure, but as an unexpected invitation to growth, grace, and greater purpose. We dive into his new book, Blessed Are the Spiraling, and explore how disorientation can actually be divine, why losing control might be exactly what we need, and how to find steady joy in the chaos. Levi shares powerful personal stories, biblical truth, and hard-won wisdom that will leave you both comforted and challenged. If you’ve been asking questions like Am I too late to start over?, Will this season ever end?, or Who am I without success?, this conversation is for you. Because maybe the spiral you’re in... is the beginning of something beautiful.

]]> 534 The Lie We’ve Been Told About Health Goals | Episode 311 🎙️ It’s time for some real talk about body goals, health, and freedom. As we roll into 2025, so many of us have set intentions around caring for our bodies—but let’s be honest, the pressure of diets, comparison, and “new year, new you” messaging can feel overwhelming.

We’re ditching the fads and embracing freedom, and trust me, this is a message you don’t want to miss. Whether you’re tuning in for the first time or revisiting this episode as a reminder, I know you’ll walk away feeling encouraged, seen, and equipped to approach your health in a whole new way.

If you've listened to a few episodes, you may have heard me mention Passion (the conference I attended in ATL at the very beginning of the year). Passion City Church has always been close to my heart, especially their music. And today's conversation is with a powerhouse of a woman and is a female worship leader with Passion Music. You may have heard her in some of our favorites, "Build My Life," "Glorious Day" and more. In today's episode, we discover how to find true freedom from comparison. She has a special message crafted to the friends that want to honor God with your "right here, right now" moments rather than look to her, or their, moments. She gives amazing practical advice of drawing near to God in these moments and how to fix our eyes on the Giver instead of the gift.

Whether you feel weighed down by never-ending tasks, or you find yourself walking through your most difficult days, you might be left wondering if a vibrant life will ever be in your future. In today’s episode, Jennie Lusko, wife, mom, and author, shares part of her story filled with darkness and how God came in and invited her to flourish in the midst of the pain. When Jennie's five-year-old daughter, Lenya, died from an asthma attack five days before Christmas, Jennie didn’t know how she could keep going—in parenting, in leading, in faith. Her new book, The Fight to Flourish, uses her powerful story to show us that flourishing is not a far-off hope, but a very near reality. Jennie leads us to discover that true transformation comes not in spite of our struggles but because of them. They are the very ingredient God loves to use. You don’t have to have it all together for God to work. He just wants you.

She’s written a book called “A Holy Pursuit: How the Gospel Frees us to Follow and Lay Down Our Dreams” I don’t know about you but I feel like the world has thrown so many messages at me through Pinterest and Facebook and random jargon in the media. “Follow your heart.” “Follow your dreams.” While, yes, I want to agree with the message, I also have to know that my heart is fleeting. These desires of my heart have been given to me by the Lord first before I could have thought them up. What does the Bible have to say about this? Dianne Jago knows lots about this topic, has written a book about this topic, and has had a few dreams shifted in her own heart as well that’s lead her to be a chief editor of a magazine, Deeply Rooted Magazine. She shares her journey of how she got to this destination. She was okay with the Lord doing something different with her life than what she would have planned for herself.
