  • Grace to Grow: Rest, Transitions & Starting Your Podcast | With Desiree Danielle | EP126
    Description:
    Transitions aren’t easy—but they’re necessary. In this episode, Jess and Desiree get real about moving seasons, why rest is Biblical, and how to steward both partnership and podcasting. From recording in borrowed spaces to learning batch recording and celebrating milestones, they share how God’s grace makes room for growth. If you’ve ever delayed starting because you thought you didn’t have the “right” equipment, this conversation will free you to start with what you already have.

    🎙️ Need a place to be reminded you're not alone? The Safe Space is for creators who feel unseen, misunderstood, or ready to give up. Inside this Patreon-only community, you’ll find accountability, biblical wisdom, and encouragement to keep going when it gets hard. This isn’t just content—it’s connection.

  • Why Your Community Isn't Growing (and How to Fix It) | FT Nella Coleman | EP125

    What does real community building look like beyond likes and monthly dues? Entrepreneur and coach Nella Coleman shares how to price with integrity, lead with value, and serve without burning out—while navigating motherhood, faith, and being truly multifaceted.

  • Building Healthy Friendships (Not Codependent Ones) | FT Pauletta Brown & Andrea Gates | EP124
    Description:
    What does it really mean to build a healthy Christian friendship—one that uplifts without falling into codependency? In this episode, Pastor Andrea Gates and Dr. Pauletta Brown share how godly friends cover you, not coddle you, and why boundaries, grace, and honesty are essential for lasting relationships. We get real about grief, healing abandonment and rejection, and navigating friendships when your best friend is also your pastor. If you’ve been praying for authentic Christian friendships that sharpen and support you, this conversation is your blueprint.

  • Foster Care to Freedom: How God Rewrote My Adoption Story | FT Stephanie Byrd | EP123
    Description:
    Mom of five and author Stephanie Byrd shares how God carried her from foster care and rejection to healing, marriage, and motherhood. She opens up about being born drug-exposed, discovering her adoption, and the moment God marked her with “destiny”—then walks us through trusting God beyond faith, breaking generational curses, and letting joy lead. We dig into marriage when both partners are healing, learning to hear the Holy Spirit in everyday choices, and turning pain into purpose. If you’ve battled trauma, identity, or feeling “unwanted,” this conversation will meet you with hope and strategy.

    Description:
    Jess sits down with Omar Eltakrori to unpack how Christian entrepreneurs can balance business and ministry through God’s grace—not hustle.

Omar shares practical habits (Word-first, church-first) and creator wisdom that make space for both the marketplace and ministry. If you’re building a business and serving your church, this conversation is a roadmap to doing both—by grace.

  • True Freedom in God: Letting Go of Your Past | with Desiree Danielle | EP118
    Description:
    In this powerful episode, Jess and Desiree dive into the difference between fake freedom and true freedom found in Christ, reflecting on John 8:36: “Whom the Son sets free is free indeed.” Jess shares her personal testimony of overcoming adultery and the transformative benefits of testifying versus simply confessing. Together, they explore why God calls us to not only accept freedom but to steward it—because He is the true owner of it. This conversation will challenge you to release your past and walk boldly in the freedom God has already given you.
