Carry Confetti
A podcast to help you discover how to cultivate a life of hopeful expectation and daily celebration.
I’m Darcie Frost, an Oklahoma girl now living in New Zealand and leading a church with my husband (and our two toddlers in tow). Through weekly episodes released every Monday, I’ll be exploring Christian theology and studies in psychology to better understand the powerful effects of gratitude and hope. No matter what season of life you are in, we could all benefit from a bit more joy infused into those ordinary, everyday moments.
I’ll be tackling questions like: How do I keep believing after so many setbacks? Why hasn’t God answered my prayer yet? How do you know God is good and on your side? How do I find the strength to celebrate others, while walking through grief, disappointment, and pain? What’s the difference between happiness and joy?

More Than Nostalgia: The Transforming Power of Tradition | Ep. 45
Traditions are more powerful than we often realise. From bedtime rituals and holiday rhythms to faith practices passed down through generations, traditions quietly shape how we think, feel, and live. In this episode of Carry Confetti, we explore why traditions matter — not just sentimentally, but psychologically and spiritually.
We’ll unpack how repeated traditions anchor our nervous systems, strengthen our sense of identity, and create meaning in a fast-moving world. In fact, these repeated things in our lives form habits, transmit values, and remind us who we are and who we want to become.
Whether you grew up surrounded by meaningful traditions or you’re longing to create new ones, this episode invites you to be intentional about the rhythms you keep. Because the small, repeated practices of our lives often shape us more than the big moments ever could.
