• 82. You Can’t Teach What You Don’t Live – Why Obedience Starts at Home

  I never expected Exodus 4 to hit me like it did. God had just called Moses to lead His people out of slavery—yet on the way to Egypt, He nearly killed him. Why? Because Moses had ignored something God had already asked him to do. In this episode, I’m getting honest about the places in our lives where we try to lead, serve, parent, or minister—while quietly avoiding obedience in our own hearts. We’ll talk about: What happened between God, Moses, and Zipporah on the road to Egypt Why obedience in your private life always precedes spiritual authority How compromise creeps in, even in “Christian” homes And why we can’t teach our kids emotional responsibility if we’re not living it ourselves This one is tender, sobering, and deeply personal—and I pray it helps you pause and invite God to meet you on the way, just like He did with Moses. 👉 Want to go deeper?

  God, Do You See My Suffering? Finding Purpose in Pain and Hope in the Darkness Hey friends — it’s Danielle. If you’re in a season of pain right now, I want you to know: I see you. More importantly, God sees you. In this episode, I’m opening up the pages of Job 14 and inviting you into a real and raw conversation about suffering, grief, anxiety, trauma, and the questions we all wrestle with when life hurts. I’m not here to give you quick answers. I’m here to sit with you in the hard and speak truth over your heart. In this episode, we’ll walk through: 🔹 7 deep, soul-level questions we ALL ask in suffering (and how God answers each one) 🔹 What Job 14 teaches us about lament, honesty, and hope 🔹 Why your pain is not a punishment 🔹 How God uses suffering to shape, strengthen, and sanctify 🔹 The hope we have—even when God feels silent If you’ve ever said, “Why is this happening? Where is God? Will this ever end?” — this one’s for you. Whether you’re battling migraines like I do, carrying trauma, or helping someone else through their valley, this is a space for grace, comfort, and truth. 💬 “Job didn’t pretend to be okay.

• 80. God's Presence Is the True Blessing: Finding Peace in Every Season

  Have you ever done everything right—walked in integrity, honored God—and still ended up misunderstood or betrayed? That’s exactly where Joseph found himself in Genesis 39… and if I’m honest, that’s where many of us find ourselves too. In this episode, I want to remind you of something powerful: God’s presence is the true blessing. Not the position, not the promotion, not the applause—but His nearness. We’ll walk through Joseph’s highs and lows together and talk about what it really means when Scripture says, “The Lord was with Joseph.” Because that same presence that sustained him through false accusation and prison is the same presence that holds you today. You’ll also hear a beautiful story from one of the women who attended our Renew & Restore Women’s Healing Retreat—a reminder that even in the hardest seasons, God is still working, healing, and redeeming what feels lost. ✨ Want to go deeper? I just published a new blog post that pairs with this episode: 📝 “God’s Presence Is the True Blessing” It’s a heartfelt reflection filled with scripture, a little humor, and practical ways to stay grounded in God’s presence—even when life feels unfair. → Read the full blog now at happyfamilycoach.com/blog If you’ve been in a season of waiting, suffering, or feeling unseen, this episode and blog are for you. My prayer is that as you listen and read, you’ll begin to recognize that His presence is not only enough—it’s everything. xoxo, Danielle 💛 Ready to go deeper? ➡️ Book a family coaching or biblical counseling session: happyfamilycoach.com ➡️ Purchase the Happy Kid Toolkit: happykidtoolkit.com ➡️ Apply for a FREE on-air family counseling session — Click here to sign up ➡️ Download the FREE Letter of Release Guide — Learn how to release what you’ve been carrying and renew your mind with God’s truth. ➡️ Get your FREE e-book, “The Healing Mirror: Turning Pain into Purpose.” Subscribe and receive it instantly! ➡️ Discover your role on the Unhappy Kid Triangle — Take the quiz here. ➡️ Join us for the Renew & Restore Women’s Healing Retreat — February 2026 | Learn more + register. ➡️ Download the FREE 14-Day Teen Devotional: You Are Not Alone. ➡️ Engage in our podcast community — share your reflections and join the conversation. 📲 Follow on Instagram: @thehappyfamilycoach 💌 Join the email list for exclusive content + updates: Subscribe here

• 79. Healing from Betrayal & Broken Trust: What Forgiveness Looks Like in Relationships

  Betrayal hurts in a way few other wounds do. Maybe it came from a spouse, a close friend, a parent, or even someone in your church. When trust is broken, it can shake your whole world and leave you wondering if you’ll ever feel safe again. In this episode, I want to walk with you through what forgiveness really looks like after betrayal. Together, we’ll talk about: How to release bitterness without excusing sin. Why forgiveness and reconciliation aren’t the same thing. The difference between building healthy boundaries and putting up walls. How to recognize real fruit of repentance when trust is being rebuilt. And how to step off the Unhappy Kid Triangle and move forward in freedom. Friend, I know this isn’t easy. Betrayal cuts deep. But Jesus knows this pain — He was betrayed by one of His closest friends — and He shows us the way through. My prayer is that as you listen, you’ll find hope, clarity, and courage to keep moving toward healing and freedom in Christ. 📥 Don’t forget to download your free resource, The Letter of Release Guide, linked in the show notes below. If this episode encourages you, share it with someone who’s carrying the sting of betrayal today. And remember — forgiveness doesn’t erase the past, but it does free your future. xoxo, Danielle 💛 Ready to go deeper? 🔗 Subscribe & Stay Connected: 🎧 Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Podbean | YouTube ➡️ Book a family coaching or biblical counseling session with me: happyfamilycoach.com ➡️ Purchase the Happy Kid Toolkit: happykidtoolkit.com  ➡️ Schedule a FREE on-air family counseling session with me.

• 78. From Forgiven to Free: How to Stop Picking Back Up What You’ve Laid Down

  Friend, have you ever laid your shame or guilt at the cross… only to find yourself picking it back up again the next day? You’re not alone. In this episode, I want to walk with you into the freedom that Romans 8:1 promises: “There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” We’ll talk about why shame keeps creeping back, how to tell the difference between conviction and condemnation, and how the Happy Kid Toolkit can help you break the cycle. I’ll also share a new tool — the “Do Not Reclaim” note — to help you resist the urge to carry what Jesus has already carried for you. Together, we’ll explore practical ways to stop replaying old regrets, replace shame with truth, and live in the joy of being forgiven and free. And if you don’t yet know Jesus as your Savior, this episode includes a heartfelt invitation to surrender your life to Him — because true freedom begins with Him. 👉 Don’t forget to grab your free Letter of Release Guide in the show notes below to go even deeper. xoxo, Danielle 💛 Ready to go deeper? 🔗 Subscribe & Stay Connected: 🎧 Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Podbean | YouTube ➡️ Book a family coaching or biblical counseling session with me: happyfamilycoach.com ➡️ Purchase the Happy Kid Toolkit: happykidtoolkit.com  ➡️ Schedule a FREE on-air family counseling session with me.
