ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Hey friends! Welcome to Girls’ Night!

I’m so excited about today’s episode. Today we’re talking about how to break free from crippling insecurity and find your godly confidence.

This episode is going to look a little different because, today, I’m in the hot seat! A few months ago, my friend, Ainsley had me as a guest on her show, The Wild Confidence Podcast. I LOVED our conversation and Ainsley was sweet enough to let me share it right here on Girls Night.

So, I don’t know how much I’ve shared about this on Girls Night, but for years I struggled with crippling insecurity. It was this deep, dark hole I just couldn’t seem to get out of. Well, in this episode, I’m going to share what changed, and how God slowly but surely pulled me out of that hole and helped me finally feel good enough, loved, and truly beautiful in my own skin.

Friends, if you find yourself in that hole of insecurity right now, this episode is for you. I’m so honored to get to share this part of my story with you!
