The Beauty in Burnt Toast
The Beauty in Burnt Toast is a faith based podcast from North Alabama where real life and real conversations meet the grace of God.
Hosted by Jade and Courtney, the podcast brings together two different stages of life and honest conversations about faith, purpose, relationships, personal growth, and the messy middle most of us are living in.
Each episode explores what it looks like to follow God in everyday life. From navigating seasons of change and identity to wrestling with purpose, relationships, and the unexpected moments that shape who we become, nothing is off the table.
Recorded in North Alabama, The Beauty in Burnt Toast creates space for meaningful conversations, encouragement, and a little humor about the imperfect moments we all experience.
If you are looking for a Christian podcast about faith and real life, encouragement through difficult seasons, or honest conversations about purpose, growth, and navigating adulthood, you are in the right place.
Because sometimes the most beautiful stories start with a little burnt toast.

The Unhurried Project: Finding Peace in a World That Won’t Slow Down
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If your mind has been sprinting while your soul is begging for a nap, this episode is your permission to slow down. I’m joined by Dr. Jana Lovelace, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, executive coach, business owner, wife, mom, and unapologetic Jesus chaser, for a conversation that cuts right to the heart of why we’re all so tired and what it actually takes to breathe again.
We talk about the mental and emotional cost of constant hustle, why women especially struggle to rest, and how slowing down impacts everything from your nervous system to your walk with God. Dr. Jana brings a mix of clinical wisdom and real life clarity as she shares practical tools, faith filled encouragement, and reminders that rest isn’t laziness. It’s obedience.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, overstimulated, overcommitted, or just plain over it, this one’s for you.
In this episode, we cover:
• How nonstop motion affects your mental health
• The psychology behind hustle culture
• Why rest is a spiritual discipline
• Practical ways to slow your pace without guilt
• What God teaches us in the quiet
• How to rebuild rhythms that feel life giving and sustainable
This episode is part of The Unhurried Project, a mini series helping women find peace, purpose, and margin again.
