Lauren Pinkston is a super woman!  Not only has she served God's people on the other side of the world, but she uses her business to transform lives...and now she's teaching the next generation to do the same.

Lauren's shop Worthy for Wear is full of beautiful pieces, some of which I already own.  She is generously giving all of us 15% through the end of September 2019.  The coupon code is KNOWN15.  Go shop!  Pro tip: I have the half moon earrings and wear them ALL THE TIME!

Please go follow Lauren in Instagram and let her know how much you loved hearing her on KNOWN!  Email: [email protected]

The world keeps telling us that we should believe we are "enough", but I'm here you to tell you that you're not!  You also are.  That's the way it works with Jesus.
It's a balance; an alignment of enough of me and abundantly more than enough of Him.
The audio quality isn't great here.  This is a talk that I gave at the ladies' retreat at my church last March.  I recorded it on my phone, not knowing it would become a podcast one day!  So, I apologize for the audio quality, but I think you'll make it through.
As always, you can find me on Instagram.  @knownpodcast or my art IG @mandee.redlettered
Known is also on Facebook, if you prefer that outlet
The website has plenty to read, a shop that is just getting started, and more info about Know.
Thanks for listening!

Leah Eagle has been through a lot.  And all of those things were packed in together. Have you ever felt like you can't catch a breath?  I'm sure your answer is yes...that's why the saying "when it rains, it pours" is a popular adage. 
Join me and my friend Leah as we talk about loss, parenting, and finding the light.  I'm sure there's something you'll be able to relate to!

Here are the links for the articles written by Leah that she talks about on this episode:

This woman packs a punch!
Jametta has a very impressive resume, but she is so much more than her career.  She's fiercely in love with God and doesn't mind telling you all about Him. 
I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation about having a past and finding a future in Christ.  She has so much to share with a joyful voice.  I want more from her and I'm sure you will too!
IF you'd like to get in touch with Jametta, you can find her on Instagram and LinkedIn.

My friend Christa is so full of life and joy and humor.  The world says her story is one of tragedy and sorrow, but she knows Who writes her true story.  Christa loves Jesus and is using what the world has thrown at her to glorify God and point others to Him.
I am so proud of her and I'm overjoyed to introduce her to you.

My friend Tiffani is a gem!  She has a lot happening in her life and more than enough Jesus to get through it.
***Parents: we talk about pornography and the death of a child.  These topics may be difficult for children, so you may want to screen this one!
We dive into several topics: disappointment, adoption, child loss, chronic illness, marriage counseling, community, gluttony, and self-control, to name a few! 
I feel certain that there is something each of us can relate to in Tiffani's story.
If you want to contact Tiffani, you can email her or find her on Instagram.
