"He can use our failures, he can use our insecurities, he can use our parenting mistakes. He can use all of it. We just have to believe that he can and that’s where we have to start.”

For those who feel called to lead but wonder if they have what it takes, those who are weary from the costs of leadership, those with a vision for where they want to go but feel stuck in small beginnings—this conversation is for you. Join us me as I talk with Willow Weston about her leadership journey, and hear her invitation to collide with Jesus right where you are—believing he'll meet you, heal you, and use what you have in unexpected ways.

Willow Weston is an author, speaker, podcast host, conference curator and the Founder and Director of Collide, a nonprofit ministry based in the PNW with a national reach impacting thousands of women. She has been in ministry for 25 years and loves bringing passion, truth, and story into every room she walks into. She authentically shares her story of pain, and the beauty that comes out of it, in a way that inspires and encourages people to bravely invite Jesus into their own brokenness so they can experience hope and healing too. 

Willow, a mom and wife for over 25 years, is as real as it gets, obsessed with throwing parties, coffee, the beach, sunsets, kid cuddles, and a good, good story.
