Following our discussions earlier in the season on having children and the framing of sex from the perspective of the church and culture, we invited a special guest, Mellap Murila, to share her journey of having a child while in college.
We talk about the lessons her experience taught her, how she’s navigating parenthood and her babies also make a brief debut - never play with Bluey! We are grateful for her vulnerability and openness. Please share your takeaways from the episode with us on social media.

Does the title say sex? Yes it does! We are going into the conversation about our perspectives on sex, where we first heard about it and how our experiences have formed our relationship with it. Of course, it would not be complete without a bit of a science lesson! Get your headphones on if you don't want your mother asking you questions.

Do you ever have a win and immediately start worrying about what is about to go wrong? Gathoni had introduced the upper limit problem as written in the book The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks.

In this episode we discuss the four hidden barriers to achieving impact and how we have seen them in our lives. Let us know which has been your biggest barrier.
Also apologies for the audio, the technical difficulties continue!
