- Thank you
Your joy is contagious! Thank you! The latest episode on Gender of your 6th baby was so honest and just beautifully done-clearly written from the heart and guided by prayer. I had 4 boys and felt the same way as you- loved it so much. God planned things a little differently, and now I have 5th who is a girl (!) and due in January with my 6th (another girl!). Could never have thought or planned it the way God designed. Thank you for taking the time to share this important message! Praying for you... more

Apple Podcasts5jmmorgan140United States2 years ago - Feeling so motivated!!
Just listened to the first 2 episodes and it’s like a joy shot in the arm! As a SAHM and also fellow RN, I love the perspective that Alex brings to the table. I got my RN license in 2018 but had also just moved overseas (military wife!) so I didn’t have a chance to work. We struggled with infertility while overseas and I thought that I’d get a nursing job when we came back to the states. Then I got pregnant a few months before we returned, and then baby was born a couple months before Covid. I’v... more
