Stephanie has a fabulous conversation with Paul Granger. Eye opening and encouraging!
When asked who he is, Paul likes to say "a child of God and ambassador of Christ", because he's learned that these elements of his identity supersede and shape the rest. One of the ways God has invited him to live out the call to "love God and love others" is through the "shepherding gift": providing pastoral support, creating space for conversation and community, and advocating for those that may go unseen.
Functionally, he has spent the last two decades serving with various ministries, and now serves full time alongside YWAM in loving his neighbors in authentic ways. He also loves to create, whether it is his podcast "Where did you see God", writings, or videos. He loves spending time with his wife and kids, and they see their home -- which God gave them in a crazy way -- as an important piece of how they love their neighbors as a lifestyle.

Is a professional fitness coach and men’s discipleship leader with a passion for seeing lives changed by Jesus Christ. A former football coach and Marine Corps veteran of Desert Storm, John’s life was radically transformed from a self-destructive trajectory to one of life, wholeness, and a dynamic walk with Christ, a story that is told in the pages of Broken and Redeemed. John holds a master’s degree in Physical Education from Ohio University, and, as of this writing, is close to completing a Master’s degree in Theology from Faith Seminary in Tacoma, Washington, where he resides.

Stephanie talks to Virginia Jones about her overcoming childhood trauma and turning the dial for the better for her own family.
Virginia and her husband raised and homeschooled their two daughters while working in the ministry.

When her days of homeschooling were over she found that her time was her own. She tried several things but finally came to discover podcasting. She fell in love from the start. Virginia loves to meet new people, discuss people and events in history, talk about her little homestead and most definitely the Lord Jesus Christ.

Stephanie has an insightful and engaging conversation with friend and co-recovering alcoholic Dr. Stephan Neff.
Dr Stephan Neff is passionate about demystifying mental health problems and helping the people around him live a life so full of joy that yesterday is jealous of today. Born in Germany, Stephan has studied medicine at the prestigious Heidelberg University before travelling and working around the globe. Nowadays he has settled down as an anaesthetist in beautiful New Zealand and has become a bestselling author and advocate for mental health and addiction.
He is uniquely qualified in this role. After all, a lifetime of trauma led Stephan to drown his sorrows, only to find that the critters can swim. As an alcoholic in recovery, he has experienced addiction and mental health problems first-hand. After successful rehabilitation, Stephan is now an expert in living a life so fantastic, that alcohol has simply no role to play. He shares this passion through his podcast, YouTube channel, and other social media (all titled "My Steps to Sobriety").
In his book "My steps to Sobriety" he shares the lessons he has learned as a doctor and as a man. And the truth is simple - The past does not equal the future. Every alcoholic can turn his life around, one little decision at a time. This book shows how to do it.
But would it not make sense to start earlier? Stephan believes that it is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men. His creative partnership with Belinda Managh has led to the beautiful "Esmee the mindful mouse"-series, which addresses core beliefs that are laid down in early childhood. The adventures of Esmee and her friends allow the children to learn about emotions and mindfulness in a playful way and help grownups to put these life lessons into daily practice.

Stephanie has a raw and honest conversation with Charlene Madden.
Charlene Madden has admittedly spent most of her life living in a state of darkness. After experiencing over 9 years of sexualized trauma at the hands of her grandfather, a decade of domestic violence, and 3+ decades of mental illness and suicidal ideology, she was just 2 days away from taking her life when she attended a women's workshop where everything changed. She was able to take off her blinders, begin the healing process, and find her Purpose by turning her Mess into a Message of Hope, Evolution, and Transformation that she now shares with people all over the world.

Stephanie talks to the courageous Sara Im.
Sara shares the remarkable challenges she faced and how she found her way to freedom in her book, “How I Survived the Killing Fields: A Story of Hope, Love and Determination.” Readers find it to be a remarkable story. Beyond the physical and psychological demands of life in a forced labor camp for four years, Sara battled multiple serious diseases simultaneously. With no access to medical care, nutrition, proper rest or adequate sleep, she was near death several times. However, with hope, love and determination, along with her strong religious faith and love for her family, she somehow managed to regain her health and escape the horrific oppression plaguing her homeland.
Following her escape to Thailand in 1980, Sara a year later immigrated to the U.S., starting a new life in Connecticut. In 1987, she became a U.S. citizen and graduated from Western Connecticut State University. In 1989, her mother and three brothers were able to reunite with her in the U.S. Beginning in 1999, she says she was fortunate to serve as her mother’s caregiver for the last 13 years of her life. In 2005, she moved to Tampa Bay with her mother and husband. Today, she runs her own business, “Smart Healthy Living,’ in which she works to enhance people’s lives through the use of effective natural nutrition and safe personal care products. Sara is co-founder and a director for the Christian Professionals Network of Tampa Bay and a long-time member of the Real Talkers Toastmasters Club 7306 in Clearwater, Florida.

Stephanie Olson talks to Jodi Stout, a woman who is all too familiar with loss and grief. Jodi shares how God transformed her life through her grief.
Jodi Stout of Havana, IL has been married to her husband Mike for 25 years. Jodi has 2 children, 2 Bonus children and is Grandma to 8 beautiful grandchildren, including a 3-month-old grandson who entered heaven in 2014 and a 16-year-old grandson who entered heaven in 2020. Both grandsons died a preventable death.
Jodi knows grief intimately. She has walked through a journey from surface Christianity to a deeper more dependent walk with Jesus and a purpose driven life learning to trust God and submit daily to His will. Through her faith she has turned her tests into a testimony. Out of Jodi’s grief were birthed two ministries that enable her to reach others who need the same hope she does daily.
Jodi is a Speaker, Leader of Group 15 (a small-group ministry for local teens in memory of her 16-year-old grandson), and Founder/President of Mountain Top Journey, a retreat ministry for adults designed to help them release, reconnect, relax and be rejuvenated from life’s traumas. She is also known as “Grandma Jodi” to nearly most every teenager in her hometown of Havana.
Her mission is to help others through their grief, to find the peace that only God can provide. It is a mission determined to help others turn their tests in life to testimonies that will change other lives. Jodi strives to be a difference maker to others through her love for Jesus.
