“They Don’t Know What They’re Signing”: The Student Debt Trap

In this episode of The Real Deal with Abby and Regan meets real life decisions: college, trades, and calling. Abby and Regan talk about why so many teens are pushed into student debt before they even understand what they’re signing, why we’re “no student loans” moms, and how to help your kids find a path that fits their God-given gifts—whether that’s college, trade school, military, or beyond.


Plus: the importance of choosing a campus that aligns with your family’s values, spiritual formation, and the launch-year reality every mom feels.

In this episode:


The student loan trap (and why teens can’t grasp the burden yet)


College vs. trades vs. military: helping kids find their lane


Paying for college with scholarships + realistic planning


Why values + formation matter as much as a degree


“Equally yoked” and the long game of faith + family

Navigating Emotions Amongst the Sulk and the Shift: The Challenge of Forgiveness

“Trusting God’s Timing: Faith, Family, and Saying Yes to Life”

Abby and Regan get real about trusting God through motherhood, marriage, and the moments when life just doesn’t make sense. From birth control to big families, this heartfelt chat is all about surrendering to God’s plan — even when it’s hard.

This week, Abby and Regan dive into one of the most personal and faith-filled conversations yet — what it truly means to trust God’s design for life and family. With humor, honesty, and vulnerability, they share their journeys through young marriage, motherhood, and the pressure to “plan” life perfectly.

From birth control and tubals to moments of conviction and surrender, they unpack how faith reshapes our choices and how God’s timing is always better — even when the world tells us otherwise.

Whether you’re in a season of abundance or uncertainty, this episode is a reminder that children are blessings, not burdens, and that God’s plans will always exceed our own.

 Key Themes & Takeaways:


Surrendering to God’s timing in family and motherhood


Faith over fear in financial and life decisions

How modern culture misunderstands birth control and sterilization


Trusting that God’s plans are bigger than our comfort zones
