Knowing our worth as adults is hard enough, being a teenager doesn't make it any easier. In this episode Christina and Melissia talk about how hard it is to get through those times in our lives when we forget where our worth comes from.

Genisis 1:26-27
"Then God said, 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.'
So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them."

In this conversation, Christina and Melissia discuss their personal challenges with health and scheduling, the importance of empowering young girls through Bible study, and the struggles of adolescence. They emphasize the need for kindness, the significance of seeking God's guidance, and the transformative power of forgiveness. The discussion also delves into the nature of Jesus and God's eternal plan for humanity, highlighting the importance of growth through challenges and the unconditional love of God.

Boysober

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
