Episode 106: a conversation with author, speaker, radio host, and friend of Bridging the Gap, Susie Larson, and our podcast host, Mykelti Blum. This recording, sponsored by Steinle Law PLLC, took place in front of a live studio audience during the 2025 Thrive Conference.
Susie and Mykelti discuss living in the love of God versus the fear of man. You will hear them share about mindsets, times when they have looked too much to the opinion of others, and stories of how they gained freedom from fearing man. Susie will encourage you to embrace the discomfort as you live boldly and bravely in your faith. She explains how this will help you to grow in the Spirit as you start to remove fear and align with the Lord. This is such an impactful and exciting episode!
