12 FEB 2026 · In this deeply moving conversation, Theresa Bruno sits down with Jade Warshaw of Ramsey Solutions to explore what happens when faith, identity, and perseverance are tested over the long haul.
Jade shares her powerful journey from overwhelming debt and quiet despair to financial freedom—and the unseen emotional and spiritual work it took to get there. Together, they talk honestly about shame, frustration, anger, sacrifice, and the moments when the math doesn’t work and hope feels impossibly far away.
This episode goes beyond money. It’s about the grief of letting go of a dream, the courage to answer a new calling, and the resilience required to stay the course when you can’t see the ending. Jade opens up about leaving a life on stage and transitioning to co-hosting The Dave Ramsey Show. How she wrestled with identity, trusting God through uncertainty, and holding onto a vision that kept her moving forward when everything felt stalled.
Tender, raw, and deeply affirming, this conversation is for anyone who has ever felt stuck, afraid they’ve failed, or unsure how to begin again.

5 FEB 2026 · In this episode of The Soul Talks Podcast, Theresa Bruno sits down with Jade Warshaw for an honest conversation about money mindset, financial trauma, and the emotional stories that shape how we spend, save, and survive.
Jade shares how growing up with constant messages of scarcity—“we ain’t got no money”—impacted her sense of identity, achievement, and belonging. What begins as a discussion about personal finance quickly expands into deeper territory: shame around money, performance-based worth, perfectionism, and how unresolved beliefs follow us into adulthood and marriage.
Together, Theresa and Jade explore why money problems are rarely just about math. They unpack the emotional and behavioral patterns behind debt, including Jade’s experience navigating over $460,000 in student loan and consumer debt early in her marriage—and how facing those numbers forced a profound internal shift.
This episode offers insight into financial healing, emotional freedom, and breaking generational money patterns. It’s a powerful conversation for anyone struggling with debt, money anxiety, relationship stress, or the belief that success and security must be earned through constant performance.

28 JAN 2026 · In this deeply honest and unexpectedly tender conversation, Theresa Bruno sits down with Heather Land to talk about what happens when the roles that once defined us begin to fall away.
Heather opens up about navigating perimenopause, creativity droughts, shifting identity, and the quiet grief that can come when life doesn’t look the way you thought it would by midlife. With her signature humor and raw vulnerability, she shares how comedy emerged from pain, how laughter became a lifeline, and why making people feel normal has become her true calling.
The conversation also moves into deeply personal territory as Heather reflects on motherhood, her daughter Ava’s journey toward healing, the generational impact of shame, and the freedom that comes when we stop hiding our mess. Together, Theresa and Heather explore how shame isolates us, how honesty restores intimacy, and how surrendering control can open the door to unexpected purpose.
This episode is for anyone who feels tired, stuck, uncreative, or unsure of who they are becoming — and needs the reminder that nothing about where you are right now disqualifies you from the life you’re meant to live.

21 JAN 2026 · In this deeply honest and unexpectedly funny conversation, Theresa sits down with Heather Land to talk about what happens when your life falls apart—and your voice finally shows up.
Heather shares the story behind her viral rise to fame, from being a worship leader and single mom navigating divorce and grief, to waking up one morning with millions of people listening. But this conversation goes far beyond comedy. Together, they explore how humor can be born from pain, why boundaries are not the opposite of forgiveness, and what it’s like to grow up as the “good kid” in a home shaped by addiction.
Heather opens up about her relationship with her parents, the long road to healing, and the courage it took to step away in order to survive—and how that decision ultimately led to redemption for her entire family. This episode is about faith that evolves, laughter that heals, and the freedom that comes from finally saying the thing out loud.
If you’ve ever felt torn between compassion and self-preservation, or wondered whether you’re allowed to protect your own heart, this conversation is for you.

14 JAN 2026 · In this poignant and uplifting episode of Soul Talks with Theresa Bruno, Theresa sits down with the legendary author and speaker Patsy Clairmont for a deeply personal conversation about the intersection of suffering, faith, and the unexpected medicine of humor.
Patsy opens up about her remarkable journey, from her early days struggling with agoraphobia and anxiety to the "mind-blowing" experience of speaking to arenas of 25,000 women during her 20-year tenure with Women of Faith. She shares candid reflections on the early, lean years of ministry and the "joy of responsibility" that comes with being a storyteller for God.The conversation turns to a tender place as Patsy discusses her current "grief journey" following the loss of Les, her husband of 60 years. With her trademark vulnerability and wit, she shares:
- The "Rocket" Romance: How she met her husband in a Michigan ghost town after stepping out into the street to stop his car.
- The Weight of Grief: The profound challenge of rediscovering her identity as a widow and the small, sweet moments she misses most.
- The Strategy of Thought: Her practice of "casting down" fearful imaginations and replacing them with things that are good, true, and pure.
- Laughter as Medicine: Why humor is a vital tool for healing, helping to "let off just enough grief" to allow the soul to catch its breath.
Join us for an episode that proves God meets us with the same grace in both our highest victories and our deepest valleys.

7 JAN 2026 · In this deeply moving episode of The Soul Talks, Theresa sits down with Patsy Clairmont, beloved author and speaker known for her wit, wisdom, and unmistakable joy — and hears the story that many people don’t know.
Long before the stages, the books, and the laughter, Patsy was a young wife and mother trapped by overwhelming anxiety and agoraphobia, unable to leave her bedroom and without language for what she was experiencing. In an era when anxiety wasn’t openly discussed, she felt isolated, ashamed, and unsure if freedom was even possible.
Patsy shares how healing didn’t begin with a dramatic breakthrough, but with one small act of obedience — “make your bed” — and how that single step became the beginning of a path toward faith, responsibility, and hope. She reflects on the people who walked alongside her, the power of Scripture spoken out loud, and how God used her brokenness to eventually bring healing to others.
This conversation is for anyone who feels trapped, overwhelmed, or discouraged — and for those who wonder if their story could ever be redeemed. Patsy’s journey is a reminder that freedom often begins quietly, one step at a time.

31 DEC 2025 · In this Small Talk episode, Theresa reflects from Florence on why this ancient, broken, and breathtaking city continues to call her back, especially during the holidays.
After loss, grief, and profound change, we don't reset or start over. We carry what we've lived through with us. And yet, like the centuries-old buildings of Florence: scarred, cracked, and still standing, we continue to become something new.
This short, reflective episode explores grief, resilience, motherhood, and the quiet permission to let brokenness coexist with beauty. It's about writing the story forward. Honoring what was, while making room for what comes next.
A gentle companion for anyone navigating the holidays, loss, or the courage it takes to keep going.

19 DEC 2025 · What starts as a conversation about the Detroit Lions quickly becomes something much deeper.
In this episode, Theresa sits down with Cindy to explore how story—not just sport—creates connection, resilience, and hope. Through the lens of the Lions’ journey, they talk about perseverance after loss, leadership without victim mentality, and how belief can carry us through hard seasons—on the field and in life.
Cindy shares why she believes football is really about people: the families behind the players, the cities that rally together, and the power of choosing faith and commitment even when outcomes aren’t guaranteed. Theresa reflects on finding unexpected connection with her adult son through the Lions, and how shared stories can become safe ground for healing after grief.
This is a conversation about overcoming, showing up in pain, and why—especially during the holidays—we need hopeful stories more than ever.
You don’t have to love football to love this episode.
You just have to be human.
