261. The Sisters I Never Had with Deb, Kelly and Stacie

by Julie Lefebure | Jul 28, 2026 | Podcast

What a gift it is to have women in your life who encourage you, point you toward Jesus, and remind you that you don’t have to walk through life alone.

In this special guest episode of Encouragement for Real Life, Julie welcomes three women who have deeply impacted her life: her sisters-in-law, Deb, Kelly, and Stacie.

Around the dining room table, they share honest stories about family, faith, marriage, and unexpected hardships. They also talk about the ways God has remained faithful through every season.

From navigating serious health crises and pregnancy loss to learning to trust God’s timing and discovering the beauty of asking for help, this heartfelt conversation is filled with wisdom that can only come from walking with God through real life.

You’ll hear about the importance of choosing joy. Of embracing authenticity instead of pretending everything is okay. Of leaning on family and community. And of finding God’s presence in both joyful and difficult moments.

Together, these women reflect on what they’ve learned from one another over the years. They share the legacy they hope to leave for their children and grandchildren. They also talk about the everyday practices that help keep their faith strong.

Their stories are honest. They’re relatable. And they’re full of hope. They remind us that none of us were created to carry life’s burdens by ourselves.

Be encouraged through Deb, Kelly, and Stacie’s words today.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or simply longing for encouragement from women who understand the realities of everyday life, this episode will leave you feeling seen, strengthened, and reminded that God is faithful in every season.

Julie also shares more about Abundant Life Mentoring and the upcoming Abundant Life Together mentoring group, created for women who long for encouragement, clarity, and a supportive community as they pursue the abundant life Jesus came to give.

Grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and join this meaningful conversation around the table. You may just leave feeling like you’ve spent the afternoon with friends.
