Description
We are unashamed, unafraid and ready to speak truth in love into your life. We are two women from different backgrounds with different life stories who have come together with one goal: to empower, encourage, strengthen, inspire and transform the lives of women and girls. We will be tackling subjects on our podcast that are bold, daring and essential to bring out into the open to have honest conversations about. There have been too many times in our lives that we have been forced into silence, the time has come to break free and let our voices be heard. We want to grow a community of women who desire authentic relationships where they are free to discover their true selves in a safe, loving environment.
