Episode Synopsis

Welcome back to The Better Everyday Podcast — where we’re unlocking our best self one episode at a time.In this episode, Grace and David open up about what life has looked like lately — full, busy, and purpose-driven. Grace shares how she’s been taking her health and activity more seriously, fully embracing both running and lifting weights. Between workouts, classes, ministry, and raising two kids, it often feels like they’re tag-teaming life — one parent with the kids while the other is out building or bettering.Grace gets vulnerable about the guilt that sometimes comes with this season — guilt about not sitting down for weekday family meals, guilt about not always being present as a mom or wife, and the fear that chasing personal goals might be pulling them apart instead of bringing them closer.David shares his perspective — that their family has a vision and mission: to love one another deeply, to reflect the relationship between Christ and the Church, and to raise children prepared to walk in their God-given purpose. He believes that even if they’re not doing everything physically together, they’re still running together — working toward shared goals of health, growth, and spiritual discipline.Together, they discuss the importance of investing time wisely — not just spending it. Grace’s mom once reminded David that time is the most valuable asset we have, and everyone gets the same amount. It’s up to each of us to invest it well. Grace also recalls advice from a preacher who told her: “Whatever time you have for each area of your life, make sure it’s an anointed time.” That means being fully present and content — making the most of every moment instead of wishing for more.This conversation gets emotional — Grace cries three times — but by the end, she shares how this talk brought her peace, released guilt, and completely shifted her perspective.So many of us live busy lives, but the real question is:👉 Is your busy purposeful, or is it wasteful?👉 Are you investing your time, or just spending it?👉 Are you fully present with your spouse and kids when you have the chance?We hope this episode encourages you to reflect, breathe, and find purpose in the busyness. May it help you reframe your time and see it as an investment — one that compounds into love, growth, and legacy.Watch, listen, and join the conversation!Follow, subscribe, like, and comment — we'd love to hear your thoughts.📱 Instagram | TikTok | YouTube | Spotify | Apple Podcasts@thebettereverydaypodcast
