Welcome, beautiful souls! In this inspiring and soul-stirring episode of Life of Love, Julie Hilsen sits down with transformational coach and podcaster Andrea Johnson to explore what it really means to deconstruct old beliefs, reclaim your voice, and stand tall and own it. 💖
Andrea shares her deeply personal journey growing up as a missionary kid in Korea, navigating Southern Baptist traditions, and eventually stepping into a bold and empowered version of herself after the loss of her mother—who gave her the blessing to "fly, be free." 🕊️
We talk resilience (and how it’s earned), leadership rooted in values, sacred feminine awakening, body healing, and the unspoken strength it takes to leave behind the boxes others put us in. If you’ve ever felt like you had to shrink to fit into someone else’s version of you… this episode is for you.
✨ Topics We Cover:
This conversation is warm, reflective, and filled with loving reminders that your story matters, your voice is valid, and your presence is a gift to this world. 💗

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
