    Previously “Love Drops Podcast”, now “Can You Just Sit with Me? Podcast”, relaunched Fall 2021 created by Natasha Smith, writer, speaker, and podcaster, where she shares stories on faith, family, and grief.

    The relaunch and rebranding were inspired by a piece written in 2020. The world was seemingly closing in on everyone, social injustice was high, there was so much division over politics and the onset and effects of a pandemic were raging. Everything was so loud. The world was so loud and it felt as if no one was taking the time to care or to listen. It felt like grief.

    And oftentimes what we need most during challenging times is for someone to sit with us while we wait for God to do the work. So, Can You Just Sit With Me? was birthed.
