Everylife, Encouragement, & Evaluating Your Life | Guest: Sarah Gabel Seifert (SE #120)
Self Evident is thrilled to publish our conversation with Sarah Gabel Seifert, Founder and President of Everylife Company–the only pro-life diaper company to exist. This conversation navigates how Sarah saw a need and filled it, honoring the little lives who wear diapers by providing toxin free products and praying and promoting a culture of life through public campaigns. The most recent endeavor of Everylife has been to pray for more babies along with prominent prayer partners across the U.S.
Sarah also has an exhortation to the listener who is still in their season of singleness: evaluate your life. Do you want to become a spouse and a parent? Then make choices now that will lead to your dream becoming a reality! We hope this conversation is a blessing to those who hear!

MAHA, Mommas, & Christian Gratitude for Food (SE #118)
Self Evident is talking seed oils, coffee consumption & the Spiritual power of food & a nap. Our newest guest host, the elegant Elizabeth Fiedler, talks about how the MAHA movement is focusing on determining the root causes of autism and childhood diseases through nutrition, and how as Christians, we are called to keep our bodies healthy through food, hydration and rest.
Alyssa & Elizabeth are both expecting their first babies, and keep Jenna in constant awe as they present their independent study of the right caffeine intake, how (the fruit) dates are bad until they’re good while pregnant, and much more.
The conversation pivots when the importance of health when you are “young and nothing can stop you” is touched on, which moves then to how food cannot become an idol in our lives. Yes, avoid seed oils when you can, but the purpose of meals is to gather at a table with the people in your life, not to obesses about calorie count. We hope you are blessed by this discussion!

When You’re Single & Don’t Wanna Be (SE #116)
In this edition of Self Evident, Rebecca, Alyssa & Jenna are bringing up the topic that’s as hard to avoid as many people cannot shake the status of: singleness. It’s a subject every human on God’s green earth has struggled with (well, exceptions apply *cough*Paul*cough*) and is hard to accept as a gift–because for most people, it’s not.
We hope this conversation is a blessing to those who hear.
