Have you ever felt like God was calling you to share your story or help others in an area that you don’t feel qualified to help them in?
Like, “God…but I’m not through it. I’m not an expert yet. I haven’t mastered this.”

The other side of Julie’s story that’s so encouraging is how to draw close to God, to lean on Him, and seek His face even through the hardest times.
On this episode, some topics we discuss are:
I hope you're encouraged by this episode and that you continue shifting your mindset toward Jesus so you can do all that He is calling you to do.
