Today's episode is something a little different: Amy gets a chance to sit down with Lori Gasca to talk about growing your relationship with God, and how we can grow through being curious about our fears! Lori's life calling is to empower other women to step into their own unique God-given purpose, and she shares her journey with the creation of The Grove, a creative workspace designed by women, for women! You'll hear about how her quiet worship time in the mornings has allowed her to take ownership of fear, and her top three ways to combat this fear through the wisdom and support of Scripture. Amy also gives us a peek into her journey with reading the full Bible in a year and gets Lori's advice on how to really work with her reading time to get the most out of that time of worship. If you're a woman who's looking for a supportive and dynamic entrepreneurial community, or if you are just interested in deepening your spiritual practice, then this is one you don't want to miss. Thanks for joining and let's dive in!

“I just want women to be comfortable in the skin that they have, the body they've been given, and the life they've been given. And to know that they are uniquely created for a purpose. And that is what they should use to step into what they've been called to do.” — Lori Gasca [0:05:15]
