2016! Can you believe it!? To kick off the new year, I invited my all-time favorite guest back to the show – my husband Aaron Ivey.
On the show, we chat about buying a new house, including our must-haves and our wretched blue carpet. We're in the middle of renovating, so you'll hear about all the work Aaron has been doing and how good I am at being attracted to a working man. We discuss our top three goals for 2016, which clearly needed to happen because I forgot one of mine, and didn't know about one of Aaron's. So, fortunately, this podcast served our marriage.
And lastly, we took on some questions from you guys. We have a lot more to cover, but this time, we covered how we fight feeling like each other's work is competing with our marriage, how we keep things spicy in our marriage (which snowballed a bit into an embarrassing conversation for Aaron), how we support each other's dreams, and a lot more.
I'm obviously a little biased, but I think y'all will love this show.

It’s not exactly what Aaron has, but kinda like it. We have just bought ours at local stores here in Austin!
Hi Jamie! This show was great! Funny and real. Great questions from listeners, too. Curious as to how to do stitch fix just by using referral codes? Ive always been interested in trying stitch fix, but have never bit the bullet–mostly because of finances. Also, I’d totally be down with more than one show a week! A great goal for 2016! 🙂

Loved this episode! I literally laughed out loud a few times while listening! I think ya’ll are too cute!
I really loved your answer about balancing our “stuff”! My husband and I just went on our first mission trip to Haiti this past summer as well! It was definitely mind-opening to see that type of poverty. One way that we balance that is we try to give no matter what – tithing and giving are the first things we take out of our paychecks and we try to give to several different non profits (our Judea, Samaria, and ends of the earth). The other way we have been trying to balance is by “purging”. What I mean by that is that when we gain new things, we clean out our cabinets, closets, etc., give away old things and replace them with new things that way we’re not storing unused items. Just wanted to offer some other examples. I just started listening to your podcast and I am loving it! We also binged Making a Murderer so I am right there with you, girl! Thanks for your insights, advice, motivation, and love of Christ!
You all are too cute! I love the episodes with you two. Did you share one of your go to meals you have been making lately? Something with red potatoes? I was traveling when I listened and caught up on a few podcasts, but I think it was you that gave it. Any chance you could share on here? 🙂
Loved this episode. I think it’s great that your hubby is willing to chat with you on this amazing show. A few things… Yes please on the twice a week podcast; Oh. My. Goodness. I can’t wait to hear Cori Robertson; and do you know if prep dish can be customized for allergies?
Thanks for your show! I love listening each week. On this episode you talked about your favorite recipe lately (sausage, potatoes, green beans) Is there an actual recipe floating around the internet that I can follow? Do you mind posting the link? Excited to try it 🙂
Your podcasts brighten my whole mood. I laugh. I cry. I think more deeply about issues that matter. I loved your podcasts with Aaron. They encouraged me to look at my marriage in a new light. You two have such fun together, and it shows. Thank you for the work you do. Two podcasts a week? yes, please!!
I loved this podcast! So excited for Korie Robertson and Meg Duerksen!!!
Hi Karen,
It’s Allison with Prep Dish. In general, yes, you can usually make allergy substitutions fairly easily. All of the plans are gluten free and can easily be made nut, dairy and seafood free (I include substations ideas in the weekly newsletter). We also have an active Facebook page where you can turn to for additional substitution ideas if needed. Hope this helps!
Can you share that sausage recipe? Is it breakfast sausage of like, Polish sausage? And what temp do you bake it at? I heart an easy recipe!
Loved loved loved this podcast! So stinking funny! Thanks for being real, learning all kinds of great things from your podcast!
Hey Jamie! I just listened to this episode and came here to find a link to the burning sticks too. This link doesn’t work but I’m in Austin too. What store did y’all find them?
Thanks!
