In this follow-up to the episode “Boundaries - Why We Need Them and How to Hold Them” with Julie Hawkes, Shiree takes the conversation one step further by introducing the concept of two-way agreements—an essential next layer in boundary work.

You’ll learn how boundaries can be more effective and relationship-building when they are not just declared but mutually agreed upon.

Shiree shares the 3 C’s of Holding Agreements—a simple yet powerful framework to help you create and maintain healthy, respectful agreements that support connection rather than conflict.

Whether or not others choose to follow through, this episode will help you focus on what you can do to hold your side of the agreement with clarity and integrity—strengthening your boundaries while still nurturing connection in your personal relationships.

On this episode, I’m joined by six wise women—dear friends who have each faced their own deeply personal challenges. Together, we open up about what it’s like to go through painful experiences, especially when someone you love makes choices that feel unfamiliar, heartbreaking, or just different from what you imagined.

We talk honestly about the loneliness that can come in those moments, and the powerful shift that happens when you find a safe space to be heard and supported.

In this conversation, we share:

• How isolating it can feel when your story doesn’t match the “norm”

• Why support is essential—and what it actually looks like

• How to recognize (and build) a safe, nonjudgmental support system

• The healing power of vulnerability, connection, and community

If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying your pain alone, this episode is a gentle reminder: you’re not the only one. And you don’t have to do this by yourself.

In today’s episode of Just Love Them, we continue the conversation that began two episodes ago about worry and trust. If worry is a sign of forgotten trust, today’s message is an invitation to remember: you are not alone. God is involved in the details of your life, every single day—and miracles are happening all around you.In this episode Shiree shares her journey of learning to recognize miracles, and how a daily mastermind group shifted her ability to see God’s hand more clearly.

In this episode, Jodi Chowen opens up about her journey as a mother who followed “the program” — doing everything she believed would lead her children to a life of faith and fulfillment. But when life didn’t unfold the way she expected, Jodi found herself feeling like she was teetering on the edge of a cliff. Through grace, reflection, and courage, she discovered that she wasn’t falling — she was simply stepping onto a different path.

Jodi shares her insights on what she calls “woundedness,” how she faced her fears by turning to God, and the healing power of allowing herself to grieve the life she imagined. Her story is one of pain, perspective, and ultimately peace — and it offers hope to anyone walking a similar road.
