The Chandelier: Plugged In to Shine
Hey Y'all, there's a giant, fragile box sitting on my back porch. It's been in my way for two weeks. From the outside it looks like nothing but cardboard and a "FRAGILE" sticker, but inside is the most beautiful chandelier, just waiting to be connected to its power source so it can light up the...
-
The Water Closet Revelation
Hey Y'all. I was standing in the shower, rinsing conditioner out of my hair, and God dropped a whole sentence into my heart before it ever made it to my mouth. And of course my first thought was "I need to record this" — while dripping wet, dogs barking, blinds wonky, the whole nine. This episode...

Down by the River
These are things we should be discussing. So let’s discuss.
-
One Mile of Gas and a Whole Lot of God
Y’all, this one is a testimony start to finish. My friend Hannah McDonald and I sat down 48 hours into a weekend that was absolutely marinated in God-moments, and we’re unboxing every single one of them — starting with the time we rolled into a random gas station on ONE MILE of gas left in the...
-
Flourish, Don’t Force It
Yes Y’all, this one came straight from the back patio, under the stars, past my bedtime, and honestly a LOT rough around the edges — and that’s exactly why I recorded it. Tonight I got real honest about something I’m still unboxing: the workhorse mentality. And REST without guilt. Farmer’s...
-
Not “Just” Anything: Unboxing Your God-Given Worth
Y’all, I’m coming to you straight from the car, fresh out of a church gathering where the fire of God was moving in a serious way. And on my drive home — GPS rerouting me and all — the Lord started unpacking something in me about identity and calling. Here’s the thing I keep hearing, and maybe...

Ch19 They Called Me Crazy. God Called Me Blu.
Well this is a story many don’t know I’m pulling back the curtain on the story behind my own name — how a girl named Trish became Blu Wyatt, and why it took a worship conference in Dallas, a whole year of wrestling, and a whole lot of stubborn obedience to get there. This episode walks through…

Backroads, corn and fireflies
Hey. Y’all, I’m sitting on a backwoods road in Tipton, Iowa — the same road where I once got out of the car in the pouring rain to pet a baby deer standing with its mama. Lightning bugs everywhere, corn on both sides, and God just… talking. Not in some dramatic burning-bush way. Just quiet.…

Sand, Sunscreen, and the Throne of Grace
Y’all, I recorded this one straight from the beach in Seaside, Florida — vacationing with the family, six teenage boys under one roof, and a wind I was fighting the whole time to keep off the mic. This episode is unfiltered, unplanned, and honestly? That’s exactly how it needed to be. I talk…

Ch17: “we can do the math” said that church lady
Y’all, I’m just going to go ahead and lead with this — I’m a mess. A beautiful, God-graced, still-learning mess. And apparently so is my podcast, because somehow I skipped Chapter 15 entirely. We’re calling it a bonus for the early birds and moving on. But before we get to Chapter 17, I need to...
-
Car Church: No Pew Required
Wildness —adventuring —glowing and flowing. Some of the best moments with God don’t happen in a church pew or a quiet time journal. Sometimes they happen at 50 years old, driving home in the dark, belching on the microphone, singing the wrong words to the right song, and just being with Him. This...
-
Ch18: coo-coo banana pants. I done went crazy y’all.
Yep. That’s the title IN THE BOOK. I stand by it. The time I went crazy—Marc is back with me in the studio (aka the primary suite, don’t judge us) for what might be the most vulnerable conversation I’ve ever put on a microphone. Chapter 18 in the final draft of the book. I accidentally called it…

Ch16. The Love Story. With my Honey
It’s a doozie. Y’all. I finally did it. I dragged my husband Marc onto the podcast and honestly? Best decision I’ve made since I said yes to him. (Debatable, he’d say. Don’t listen to him.) Chapter 16 (accidentally I skipped 15 all about the package of forgiveness—forgive the messiness—I’m sure...
-
Ch14: Tears in Paradise: The Dark Side Nobody Saw
Y’all. We went from sea life adventures to the dark side — and I mean that glitterally. In this episode, we’re in Chapter 14 of Unboxing Blu, and I’m telling you, this one got real. My daddy disowned me — again. Everything I owned got soaked on the side of a highway in an open trailer in a...
-
Ch13: Sharks, Art, and a Palapa Casita in Cozumel
Sea life journey. Girl. I went from a strip club to selling fine art on cruise ships all over the world. There may have been a few chapters missing in between. 😂 In this episode, we’re diving into Chapter 13 of Unboxing Blu — Sea Life Adventures — and y’all, I cannot even tell you how many…

Ch12: Yachts, a Strip Club & the Arms of Jesus
Well. This one is a wild ride to be sure. Yachts. Miami. A strip club. A storm at sea. And a bathroom floor where Jesus showed up anyway. Chapter 12 is my wildest, most honest chapter yet — and somehow, it’s also my most holy. I was living a double life, searching hard for something I couldn’t...
-
Ch11: Sleepless College Girl to Wife real quick
I high tailed it outta Corpus Christi, Tx after high school. Took on 3 jobs while putting myself through college driving a ‘69 Chevy truck. Sleep wasn’t in the equation. After 1 year I knew college wasn’t for me and I ran back to Corpus and into the arms of my high school honey. Daddy disowned me...
-
Ch10: Two Rules and a Travel Trailer
It’s a doozy. Kicked out by mama. Seeing my daddy for the first time in years since he was in prison. My daddy had exactly two rules. Never lie to him. Never ask about his business. That was it. After years of being caged, I thought I’d landed in paradise. Country western dancing four nights a...
-
Ch9: Rejected, Rebellious & Riding a Stranger’s Motorcycle
It’s messy. Like most of my story. At16…I stopped a stranger on a motorcycle outside a Dairy Queen and asked him to take me anywhere. He did. That was Chapter 9 me — rebellious, restless, and running from something I couldn’t even name yet. What looked like rebellion was actually a girl drowning…

Ch8: I Stole a Jacket, flew off a Horse & Almost Died
I disobeyed my mama, stole my stepdad’s favorite jacket, and ended up face-down bleeding in the snow in the Black Hills of South Dakota. All because I had a horse, an icy road, and absolutely zero sense. This is Chapter 8 — Ice, Blood, and Death’s Door. It’s the story of how teenage rebellion...
-
Ch2: help from ai…gravity and grace summed up
Y’all. Toss me some grace on this one. My honey bunny husband man had some fun with NotebookLM. So these voices aren’t mine….obviously….yet it’s interesting when he gave my chapter 2 of my unboxing Blu book as a source this is what they spit out as a podcast episode talking about my book. I…

CH7:: brokenness ain’t the end of it.
Y’all. This one hit different when I recorded it. Chapter 7 isn’t my funniest chapter. It isn’t my lightest one. But I believe with everything in me that it might be somebody’s most needed one. I take you back to 14-year-old Blu — a caged bird with no hope, no freedom, and no idea that the God of...
-
CH6: get yo words right sis.
Y’all, pull up a chair — or maybe a pool float — because we are going OUT to the good stuff today. Chapter 6 of Unboxing Blu is all about healing words, and honey, this might just be my favourite chapter in the whole book. We’re talking about that tiny little muscle in your mouth that holds the...
-
Ch5: Words That Boxed Me Up (And How I Busted Out)
Y’all. This one got real. In this episode, I’m walking through Chapter 5 of Unboxing Blu — “Words That Break” — and I’m not gonna sugarcoat it. I talk about my daddy. About the night I asked him if he loved me… and the silence that followed was louder than anything he could’ve said. He told me…

It’s nearly midnight in a tiny Iowa town, and Blu Wyatt hits record—not because everything is polished, but because it’s not. Unboxing Blu, is the book she’s already published. Now she finds herself questioning it all… the book, the message, even her own voice. What unfolds is part storytelling,...
-
Spiders, Melatonin & Miracles…a night on the farm
It’s midnight. Three melatonin deep. Surrounded by spiders and the company of God. Maybe trying to make up for the fact that chapter 4 of her book unboxing Blu fell OH SO flat and it’s easier to speak in 3rd person than admit she’s jacked up her first publication…whatever. Blu is recording from a...
-
Ch4: where the boxing started
Y’all… this one’s a little late-night, a little unfiltered, and honestly just me sitting with the Lord and letting it flow.

S1E10: Pretty Ain’t Gonna Cut It Sis

S1E9: uncomfortable but needed newness
It ain’t easy to make a change but the new you need gonna take some surrender and trashing some lenses you’ve been looking at life and others through. You’re loved and it’s time to see it, feel it and act like it. Heart surgery in process and it ain’t always pretty or fun

Rest isn’t weakness—it’s obedience, healing, and trust. In this episode of The Unboxing Podcast, I unpack the box of rest and why it’s been one of the hardest unboxings of my life. From hustling, overworking, and arguing with God about slowing down, to learning what true rest looks like for the...

S1E6: chained to likes

-
S1E5: grace unboxing
This episode landed different for a reason. We flipped the box. Five represents grace and I just turned 50 and it’s the 5th day of the month while we bust out with episode 5. This cannot be made up! So today we’re unboxing the gift of grace. Jesus paid for it so we didn’t have to strive for it....
