  Juggling Life, Finding Balance: A Look Back & A Step Forward | Ep. 70

  Jul 22, 202631 min

  This episode is bittersweet. Two and a half years ago, I said "yes" when God asked me to step outside my comfort zone and start a podcast. He faithfully prepared me every step of the way, opening doors, teaching me new skills, and bringing incredible women into my life to share their stories. Over the past two and a half years, we've talked about the things that matter most to women: balancing faith, family, careers, ministry, and life's many responsibilities. We've laughed together during Sister Talk with Viv & Becca, learned from inspiring guests, and walked through honest conversations about burnout, grief, joy, purpose, and God's faithfulness through every season. Thank you to every guest and every listener! Your support, encouragement, and friendship have meant more than you know. While this is the final episode of Juggling Life, Finding Balance, it isn't goodbye. It's the beginning of a new adventure. I'm excited to be joining Abundant Television as a co-host of Salted, a women's talk show where no topic is off the table.

  Jul 1, 202637 min

  What does it really mean to have influence? In a world that measures success by followers, likes, downloads, and views, it's easy to believe that bigger numbers equal greater impact.

With more than 25 years of experience in Christian media, Rob shares how God transformed his passion for media into a calling to help others amplify their message for eternal impact. In this episode, Vivian and Rob discuss: • The difference between followers and genuine Kingdom influence • Growing an audience versus growing lasting influence • The pressure Christian communicators face to build a platform • Why authenticity and heart posture matter more than numbers • Discerning the difference between good opportunities and God's assignment • Staying spiritually balanced through prayer, discernment, and obedience • Encouragement for women who feel their influence is too small to matter • How Abundant TV is creating opportunities for Christian voices to reach the world GUEST BIO: Rob Patz is a media entrepreneur and the founder and CEO of Coastal Media and Abundant TV, a Christian television network dedicated to sharing faith-filled programming around the world.

  When Christian Moms Turn to Marijuana | Ep. 67

  Jul 1, 202641 min

  What happens when the thing you turn to for relief becomes the very thing holding you captive? In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, Trina Brannen shares her journey from depression, marijuana and alcohol addiction, and spiritual disconnection to a life transformed by God's grace. What began as a way to cope with emotional pain eventually became a dependency that left her feeling isolated and trapped. Through Christian counseling, recovery programs, authentic community, and God's relentless pursuit of her heart, Trina found the freedom she never thought possible. Together, Vivian and Trina discuss the growing normalization of marijuana use, particularly among women, the challenges of overcoming addiction in a culture that often celebrates it, and the importance of bringing hidden struggles into the light. Whether you're battling addiction, struggling with depression, or simply feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges, this episode is a reminder that healing is possible, shame does not have the final word, and God is still in the business of restoration. GUEST BIO Trina Brannen was born and raised in Santa Rosa, California, and she loves her hometown. She met her first husband at the age of 14, and that was when she was introduced to marijuana. They married at 19, and by age 26, she had two beautiful kids. She divorced at age 35, then met a new man a few years later. They married and became a blended family of six. Trina has been a Christian for over 20 years, but over the last 10 years, she has finally begun seeking a deeper relationship with God and learning what it means to surrender her life to Him fully. Trina’s journey has not always been easy. She struggled on and off with marijuana addiction for more than 40 years and battled depression for the last 25 years. Through God’s grace, strength, and faithfulness, Trina experienced true freedom and healing in 2026. That transformation has completely changed her life and deepened her passion for encouraging others who may be walking through similar struggles. Her favorite life verse is: "The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth."
