Manda Carpenter | On Creating Sustainable Rhythms of Work, Play, and Rest

Hey You!

Thanks for stopping by.

I invest in women who want to grow their relationship with God & leadership of self and others. Whether you landed here for a word of encouragement, a dose of reality or a resource I’ve created, I’m so glad you’re here! I’m Manda and that handsome guy is my husband, E. We got married in the summer of 2015 and I love him more than Oreos, but cannot imagine my life without either.

Peel the Orange Course

Together, E and I created Peel The Orange, a 4-week online course designed to help you get to the fruit of your relationship. Couples are raving about it!

Kind Words on Peel the Orange

Peel The Orange helped us revisit key foundational things that we seemed to have forgotten about in our first couple years of marriage. It was so valuable digging deep and seeing things we’d been overlooking or completely neglecting because we’d just gotten busy. We loved the videos and would definitely recommend this course. It helped us more than we ever thought possible!

Kind Words on Peel the Orange

We absolutely LOVED Peel The Orange. We read multiple books on marriage before going through this course, but found Manda & Eric’s videos and workbook questions to be a more effective and fun approach. The real-life examples they share made this course so practical and real. With hard, convicting conversations, we came out more united than ever. Now that we’re finished, we miss “hanging out” with Manda and Eric each night. This was such a blessing in our marriage and we are recommending it to all of our friends and family.

Get Too Attached.

We have been foster parents since 2017 and have had a variety of children come through our home (ages 1-17!). Back when we first started dating, we made a decision that whenever we have more than we need, we are going to build a longer table rather than a higher fence. Our table is growing and growing. It’s our joy to #GetTooAttached and love kids well while their biological families get help and heal.”

Space Devotional

As a twenty-something woman, I’ve struggled greatly with overcommitting and stretching myself too thin. One day last year, I had a chat with God and decided I was ready to break up with busy for good. I ended up writing a 30-day devotional called Space and now provide in-person workshops that help people master the art of creating, protecting, and using their space well.

My Story.

My desire is to be transparent because #ImpressingIsExhausting and I don’t have a fake bone in my body. I’ll continue sharing my beautiful mess and get to know yours if you participate in the conversation! Most of all, I hope you leave this space encouraged. You are never alone & always welcome here.
