Taking Back Happy | Faith & Encouragement for Midlife Women Reclaiming Their Joy

Do you feel liked you blinked and found yourself in midlife? Now that your kids are grown, does your confidence feel shaken? Do you feel your courage fading now that you are no longer so & so’s wife? Are you ready to try something new, but fear and doubt keep creeping in? Do you want a meaningful, joyful, and adventurous midlife?
I am so excited you are here! Through faith and encouragement this podcast will challenge old mindsets, build your confidence, help you find clarity, and renew your spark, as you step into “what’s next.”
Hi, I’m Gina. I am God’s girl, a retired homeschool mom of four, empty-nester, GG, essential oil & exercise enthusiast, and a Christian Life Coach.
For the past 10 years I have been digging myself out of an unhealthy marriage and rediscovering God’s joy and purpose beyond raising kids.
For the longest time, I honestly believed I would never be as happy and fulfilled as I was being a homeschool mom.
In recent years, I began to realize that to truly enjoy this season of life, I needed to replace negative thoughts with curiosity and possibility. I started seeing myself as someone with unique gifts ready to share with the world.
Since making that shift, my life has become filled with deep joy, renewed passion, a clear sense of purpose, plenty of adventure and new beginnings. And I’m ready to share what I learned with you.
If you’re a woman who’s ready to take back your happy and start…
trying new things
building your self confidence
developing deeper relationships 
reclaiming your joy
and finding clarity as you decide what’s next in midlife, then this podcast is for you!
Throw on those walking shoes, pop in those earbuds, and join me as we Take Back Happy together.

What if you've been choosing between two options that were never your only two options?
Stay or go.
Try or quit.
Trust or never trust again.
Married or alone.
But what if there is another way?  What if you could break free from black-and-white thinking, and get curious about what you may not be seeing yet. Maybe taking back happy starts with realizing you have more Freedom, more Choices, and more Possibilities than you thought.

What if you have been searching for the right thing, in all the wrong places?
Sometimes the answer isn't found in trying harder, becoming more, or figuring it all out. Sometimes, something unexpected happens when two worlds collide. 
And maybe, just maybe, that collision holds the clue to what you've been looking for all along??

I almost signed up for a job I don't have anymore. One little moment at church made me realize I was still carrying an identity from a season that already ended.
But what if you are not supposed to go back? What if God is inviting you to discover who you are becoming?

What does driving around a big city have to do with walking with God? Actually, more than you'd think!
After a wild ride through Indianapolis, Gina and Laura realized God might have been teaching them a few things about missed turns, detours, staying in your lane, and trusting Him.
Because God doesn't usually hand us the entire itinerary. He gives us the next step. You just might be surprised what your own road is trying to teach you.

Six stinking minutes, or should I say six sparkling minutes? Can two opposite things really be true at the same time? Yes, I believe both can be true. Life is richer than either/or. God often invite us into both/and.
