Listener Reviews

I love how Rachel and her guests help us find that our messes have a purpose, even if we can’t see them right away. ❤️ Kim Stewart | Book Marketing Mania for Christian Authors

I just had to leave a review… I absolutely love listening to Behind the Bliss. Rachel is such a fun, energetic, kind, and honest person and I feel like I can really relate to her. Every time I listen, I always feel more connected to God and inspired. My only negative review is that I wish she recorded more episodes a week, HAHA! Love it and thank you so much for all that you do! Can’t wait to hear all about the new babe! Good Luck! We will be praying!

Rachel and the guests she chooses are the perfect addition to your day and even your spiritual practices. Add this podcast in to your commute or “mundane” tasks to inject joy, scripture, laughter and scriptures. It will make your day better and it will help you stay connected to Jesus!! The ideas, thoughts & solutions are real, practical and relatable. Every conversation is beautiful and it feels like a wonderful coffee date with a great girlfriend.

Rachel (and truly all her guests!) are so encouraging and soul-filling folks 🤍 Listening to BTB every week is a highlight for me. Whether talking about super girly things like our favorite outfits and products or talking to our heart about motherhood, friendships, and relationships I just KNOW Rachel’s got the words we need to fuel our week. So much love for BTB!!

Such a fun, life-giving podcast! Rachel is the best host and such a sweet, genuine person. There is something in each episode for everyone. Even if you think a topic isn’t relevant for you now, it probably will be - or you have someone else in your life that could use it!

I love listening each week, and I look forward to every new episode! Such easy, life giving girl talk.

I’ve been listening to behind the bliss since college, and now I’m married with my first baby and I can truly say behind the bliss has met me in the mess of every season of my life during the span of these 4 years or so. Rachel is so loving and her conversations are so honest and full of Jesus. I love having her voice fill my headphones or car speakers. Thank you Rachel for all you do!!! It is a joy to listen every week!

So proud of you! Well deserved!

Just soo thankful for this podcast! Listening to each new episode is one of my favorite parts of the week. Rachel meets you where you are. Every episode I find something that resonates with me. This podcast points you to Truth, which is really what we all need! It is also so FUN and upbeat. Thank you, Rachel and BTB team for creating such a beautiful podcast.

I love this podcast! It is so fun and real. Rachel feels like my new best friend.

I’ve laughed and cried through the Behind the Bliss podcasts. The Lord has used them to encourage me through so many different seasons of life. So thankful for the joy and raw honesty that Rachel brings!

Behind the Bliss brings joy to my day and encouragement to my life. I love the honest conversations and the Christian perspective on the hard and beautiful things in life!

This is one of my very favorite podcasts! So relatable and just a sweet spark of joy for my week! I look forward to Wednesday’s every week!

I just started listening to this podcast on my runs and I LOVE it! Rachel sounds so sweet and kind and real - like she makes you want to be her BFF haha! It’s quickly becoming my favorite podcast because it’s so encouraging and timely.

I recently discovered Behind the Bliss via Val Marie Paper. I haven’t routinely listened to Christian podcasts, but I absolutely felt God led me to this podcast and I’ve loved listening!

I discovered this Podcast a little over a year ago. I was overwhelmed with work & traveling frequently. Rachel & her guests were, and still are, my company on long drives. I am forever grateful for the capital T Truth bombs these episodes are packed with. Also, love the intentionality of “CU in the next episode”; Go Tigers!

Thank you for the hope-filled content you’re putting out there. So encouraging to hear raw and vulnerable stories that inspire people in the mess and challenges of life. I particularly appreciated your recent episode on human trafficking. Thank you for helping to raise awareness in this difficult space and for discussing the heavy topic- one that can’t be ignored.

Rachel Awtry and every speaker on the Behind the Bliss podcast has the wonderful ability to share their stories in such a way that it feels like they’re talking about you! Every week I look forward to listening to a podcast episode that truly “meets me where I’m at” and provides Godly principles to help me through my mess!

I love this podcast because it always refreshes and encourages me! It is filled with light-hearted fun and deep spiritual truths. A must-listen!

There is nothing better than feeling known, heard, seen, or having that oh my gosh me too moment! That’s exactly what behind the bliss does! As their tag line suggests they meet you in your mess of everyday struggles and help you feel surrounded and encouraged! There is truly no one more eloquent and simultaneously FUN as Rachel Awtrey and I’m so excited I was introduced to this podcast years ago! There really is a reason behind the bliss! 🤍🤍🤍

I love this podcast!

Sometimes we all just need a good chat and encouragement with a Jesus-loving friend...And that is exactly what this podcast feels like. If you are feeling lonely, lacking Christian community (#covid19), or just want to be pushed farther in your walk with the Lord, check this out!

Rachel’s episodes are like a chat with your best friend. She listens. She empathizes. She understands, and she is loyal. She makes me want to be a better human and a better child of God. This podcast is a breath of fresh air in this gloomy season of 2020. Thank you for being honest and open Rachel.

This is such a great podcast that covers a variety of topics, with so many great guests, & such relevant information. I love how these are more “conversational” and really allow people a window into the hearts of each guest speaker. Highly recommend!!
