What We Think About UsWhat We Think About UsBecoming a Mom - Leysan & Payton [GROUP INTERVIEW]This week I spoke with Leysan and Payton (new moms as of 2024), about what their experience of becoming a mother has been like so far. I loved getting to hear them tell their stories about each phase of the motherhood journey: finding out they were pregnant, pregnancy, giving birth, becoming a parent, etc.I really appreciate how honest both of them were about the high highs and low lows of their motherhood journey, while sharing such thoughtful insights on: all the different expectations that are put on mothersthe shortcomings of the physical and mental health care a...2025-07-281h 49The Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryEncore: Cycle of GraceJesus didn’t hustle to earn God’s love; He was already enveloped in it.

Despite being surrounded by people, many feel overwhelmingly lonely. We’re swimming in gigabytes of information, yet it seems like very few know us for who we truly are. God created us with a longing to belong, so what do we do when we can’t find people who support us, cheer us on, and celebrate us for who God made us to be? In today’s episode, you’ll learn three practical ways to help you find your people and your place in this world. Don’t mi...2025-07-0817 minThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryWhy Insight Isn’t Enough and What Actually Changes UsHave you ever been deeply moved by a sermon, podcast, or retreat, only to forget the main point a few days later? You are not alone. Studies show that most people forget 90 percent of a sermon within 48 hours. The good news is that God is not surprised by our forgetfulness. He lovingly planned for it and built a grace-paced way for us to absorb and live out His truth. In this episode, we explore why insight alone is not enough to bring lasting change. We also look at how God, through both Scripture...2025-06-1017 minThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Surprise of Slow ProductivityWhat if doing less could actually lead to more—more peace, more fruitfulness, more joy? In a world that celebrates hustle, hurry, and high output, slowing down can feel like falling behind. But what if it's actually the path to deep transformation and lasting impact? In this episode, I share the story of a year that felt like a detour but became one of the most fruitful seasons of my life. Along the way, we’ll explore surprising research, spiritual truths, and biblical rhythms that invite us to trade burnout for abiding.

Throughout our chat, Vida talked about their own community: how they formed it, how they invest in it, how they have benefited from it, etc. We also discussed the negative consequences from a lack of community, why friendships/communities aren’t typically valued as much as romantic relationships, and the reasons why community IS worth investing in. 2025-05-271h 17The Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Grace-Filled Work of Not Giving UpWhat do you do when your best efforts seem to disappear into thin air? You pour out your heart, offer your gifts, share your message… and hear nothing but crickets. A few people cheer, but momentum fizzles. Others smile politely, but their eyes are elsewhere. And the silence makes you wonder, Is any of this making a difference? In today’s episode, we explore a deeper, grace-paced way of looking at our work—especially when it feels like nothing is working.   Together, we’ll talk about: The quiet heartbreak of unnoti...2025-05-2715 minWhat We Think About UsWhat We Think About UsExpectations - NathanielThis week I spoke with Nathaniel about expectations. Nathaniel shared some of his thoughts on the idea of expectations within friendships and dating relationships, as well as how to respond when an expectation isn’t met. We also discussed societal expectations for people when they turn 30, value-based vs. career-based expectations for oneself, as well as how to determine whether an excuse feels like a valid reason for yourself or others not meeting an expectation. Nathaniel is a talented comedic actor, improviser, and writer, so no surprise that this episode contains lots of laughs. :)2025-05-201h 25The Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryListening to Love: Spiritual Practices SeriesWhat if the Bible wasn’t just a book to study… but a love letter to savor? Think about how you read the morning news—fast, distracted, scanning for headlines. Now think about how you’d read a note from someone who deeply loves you. Slowly. Tenderly. Holding on to every word. This episode explores the sacred practice of slow Scripture reading—not for information, but for transformation. Drawing from Scripture, neuroscience, and the gentle wisdom of Robert Mulholland’s Shaped by the Word, you’ll be invited into a more relational rhythm of being with God in Hi...2025-05-2015 minThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryGritty Grace: When God Doesn't Fix ThingsWhat if God’s grace doesn’t look like what you expected? Maybe you’ve prayed for relief, and none has come. Maybe you’ve begged for rescue, and the sky has stayed silent. When the suffering lingers and the miracle doesn’t arrive, does that mean grace is missing? In today’s episode, we’re talking about gritty grace—the kind that doesn’t erase the pain but sustains you through it. We’ll explore what Scripture reveals about God’s power in weakness, why He sometimes doesn’t remove the hardship, and how His grace is still at wo...2025-05-1315 minThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryLearning to Love Our LimitsWhat if your limits aren’t in the way—but showing you the way? We’ve all been there: eager to move forward with a calling or dream God has placed on our hearts… only to run headfirst into a brick wall of limitation. Whether it’s time, money, location, energy, opportunity, or confidence—it can feel like God has called us to something and then placed a “Do Not Enter” sign in front of the only open road. But what if our limitations aren’t roadblocks? What if they’re road signs—God’s way of gently guiding...2025-05-0616 minThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryReimagining Your Rhythms with GodIf you’ve ever felt like you’re swimming upstream—trying to force your quiet time, creativity, or productivity into a box that just doesn’t fit—you’re not alone.

But none of those truly brings the peace we’re longing for. In this episode, we’ll explore why our usual coping strategies fall short and what actually brings deep, unshakable peace—no matter what’s happening around us.

A new opportunity, a creative project, a deeper commitment to God—and suddenly, the resistance shows up. The inner critic whispers, “You’re not ready.” Procrastination sneaks in, disguised as busyness. Fear wraps itself in logic, convincing you to wait until you have more time, more clarity, more confidence.  But what if these roadblocks aren’t telling the truth? What if they’re simply the voice of the saboteur, trying to keep you from stepping into what God has for you? By listening, you’ll: ✔ Identify the snea...2025-04-1516 minThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Myth of Being Behind: God's Greater GraceIt’s a terrible feeling—that sense that you’re falling behind while everyone else is moving forward. A friend lands their dream job while you’re still figuring things out. Someone gets married while you’re still waiting for a date. A colleague expands their reach while you feel like you’re standing still.  The longer the delay, the louder the inner voice whispers, “You should be further along by now.” And with that comes the restlessness, the self-doubt, the temptation to force something just to feel like you're making progress.  But what if that feeling is ly...2025-04-0815 minWhat We Think About UsWhat We Think About UsOnline Behavior - ChristinaThis week I spoke with Christina (Steen Catucci) about online behavior. In addition to stand up, improv, and TV writing, Christina is an incredibly talented, comedic content creator on TikTok and Instagram. However, as we know, people can be disgusting and hateful online. It was shocking to hear about some of Christina’s negative experiences with people online that included hate comments and plagiarism. It was also fascinating to hear Christina’s takeaways from all these experiences, and her strategies for navigating her career online today. Website: Steen CatucciInstagram: @insta.steenResearch done...2025-03-251h 35The Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryDoes This REALLY Matter?We all have moments of doubt—wondering if the work we’re pouring our hearts into actually matters. Whether it’s raising kids, serving others, writing, creating, or simply showing up every day, the question sneaks in: Does this make a difference? Even J.R.R. Tolkien wrestled with this, fearing his work would never be completed or, worse, that no one would care. But what if our perspective is too small? What if the tiny, unseen efforts—the simple tasks we do in what feels like obscurity—are actually part of something far greater than we can imagin...2025-03-1112 minThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryThe Pace of Grace with Kim AveryWhat Are We Missing? A Journey to Noticing God in the EverydayHave you ever felt like you're so focused on your tasks, your plans, and your to-do list that you might be missing something important—something right in front of you?

Commitments that once seemed small and manageable have a way creeping up faster than we expect. Before we know it, we’re in survival mode, trying to outrun the chaos instead of moving forward with intention and peace. In this episode, we’re pausing to take a different approach.

You’re climbing step after step, carrying the weight of responsibilities, and there’s no landing in sight. Elijah felt that way too—burnt out, overwhelmed, and ready to quit.

Whether it’s the job offer arriving at the perfect time, a loved one’s health turning around, or that “just when I needed it” phone call from a friend. Those "yes" moments are incredible. But, as much as I cherish those times, they aren’t the full picture. Not by a long shot. There have been plenty of times when God’s answers seemed more like a "no," or worse, silence.

The uncertainty of not knowing when, or even if, it will strike hangs over you like a storm cloud. Then, you’re presented with a choice: wait it out or press the button and shock yourself right now to end the waiting. What would you do?

It was fascinating to hear Hannah discuss her changing views on what success with her art looks like: maybe it’s not working full time as an artist, maybe it’s not being as popular/famous as possible, etc. I also loved getting to hear Hannah’s thoughts on employers’ resistance to remote work, the concept of ‘quiet quitting’, and whether we as humans are meant to work.

What a delight! We both cringed a little at the idea of discussing “play”, because… let’s just say it out loud: it is sort of a cringey topic/word. HOWEVER, we both agreed play, fun, and laughter are the things that we most enjoy about life. So we dove into discussing WHY play can feel cringey, what gets in the way of adults experiencing play, and the differences between “socially acceptable play” for adults vs “play-for-the-sake-of-play”, which can feel more vulnerable/high stakes because there is no capitalistic advantage to it.

She discusses expectations within relationships, how to maintain relationships when life circumstances and responsibilities get in the way (health, work, family, etc.), as well as creative ideas for connection. I also can’t thank Bebb enough for being so open and vulnerable about her experience with chronic health issues.
