  • The Lord said to her, “Are you done?” | Leah Carr, BGT #02

    Hey babe.

    Welcome back to Big Girl Thoughts. For episode 02, I sat down with my friend Leah. She is a mighty prayer warrior, she serves at City Reach Church, and she has one of the biggest laughs you will ever hear. Don't let her tiny frame fool you. By 12 she had lost her innocence. By 14 she was on ecstasy every weekend. By her twenties she was on Vicodin, then meth, then homeless for two years. And then a door opened in a crack house in Oregon, and the man who answered it is now her husband. This one goes deep. If you have ever felt like you've gone too far, this episode is for you.

  • She lost everything at 17 | Treasa McGinnis | BGT #01

    At 17, two weeks before high school graduation, Treasa lost the woman who raised her and became the guardian of six siblings overnight. Today she leads ministry.

    This is the first episode of Big Girl Thoughts, and Mama T pulls back the curtain on everything in between. In this episode, Ashleigh sits down with her best friend Treasa, AKA Mama T, for a conversation about brokenness and what it takes to turn a mess into a message. If you have ever felt unworthy, or like your story is too much, this one is for you.
