Hi ladies,
Hope you all are staying warm!
Today on the Girl Talk Podcast we are talking about - Prov. 18:21 - “ Death and life are in the power of the tongue.”
I love how powerful this verse is and it is so clear that it is either death or life, but no in between.
This applies to what we say to others, but today we are chatting about what are we speaking over ourselves.
This year I have been searching out Biblical affirmations and have been writing them down and speaking them out loud as I start each day.
I want to invite you on the journey too!
What are we speaking over ourselves?
Are we speaking life over ourselves to start each day or are we speaking death over us?
✨The 7 affirmations I have chosen for the first month of the year are✨
- I am a new person in Christ. - 2 Cor. 5:17, Is. 43:18-19
- I am passionately loved - Psalm 56:8, Is. 43:4
- I am remarkably made - Gen. 1:27, Ps. 139:14
- I am provided for - 2 Peter 1:3, Deut. 20:4, Matt 6:30-35
- I am covered in God’s armor - Eph. 6:10-18, Psalm 18:2
- I have a future - Rom. 8:28, Philip. 1:6, Jer. 29:11
- I am at peace - Psalm 94:19, Philippians. 4:6-7

Hello ladies!
Have you ever felt like God has asked you to do something big? Something that challenged you and maybe you even felt this is impossible.
Our guest today @JeniBolton has an incredible story of God calling her and she just simply said YES!! That yes has turned into many miracles and blessings from God. Jeni’s one calling or assignment has now turned into a non profit called - 500 turkeys and she along with many, many givers are the hands and feet of Jesus that feed over 1,000 families each year for Thanksgiving.
It is often said when God gives the vision He gives the provision and that has been proven in this amazing testimony of Jeni Bolton.
As you listen to this testimony - you will see how incredible our God is and you will be encouraged that whatever vision you feel God is giving you and feels too big… A simple YES is all He needs. He will provide.
You can find Jeni on facebook and Instagram through the links below or click the link to see what 500 Turkey's is all about!

Hey ladies,
Have you ever tried to pick up a fork with a closed fist?? I know it sounds crazy - Why would anyone even try that?
In today’s podcast I share a journey I have been on with the Father. I discovered the Father is pouring His love out and I had my fists closed tight and was not in a position to receive it. Listen in to todays podcast to hear all about the table He has prepared for us with everything we could need, but we must be in a position to take and receive it.
As you walk on your journey - I want to encourage you to let go of what you might be holding on to and turn your hands up and open as you are ready to receive all He is pouring out to you.
Hey ladies,
Have you ever found yourself at the end of the day with a million thoughts in your mind and feeling all the emotions??
I have been there so many times and it can be overwhelming and difficult, but I have also been on the other side.
I have been to the end of the day and thought now that was a great day!
On today’s podcast I am sharing with you the best tip to get to the end of your day and not feel like life is out of control… or at least your mind feels like it’s out of control.
It’s super short, so easy; it has transformed my life and I know it will yours too… Have a friend your thinking about that feels that out of control feeling at the end of the day - Tap that share button and send this podcast to them! We want all woman living a life of freedom - the way God intended us to.
Hey friend,
Have you ever felt as though you are walking through a desert season, maybe a valley, or a quiet time in life?
In today’s episode I share some personal thoughts and experiences I have had and some revelation the Lord has brought to my attention recently.
If you are in a desert season or might be one day - Grab your favorite drink, notepad, pen and listen as I share a few tips to help when you are in that desert, valley or quiet time of life.
Do you know a friend currenlty walking through this season? Send them this episode to encourage them through their season.
Hey ladies,
Have you ever felt like you were just completly lost? Like you know each day is important and has purpose and meaning, but sometimes you just feel like what am I even doing??? Just stuck in the mundane of life….
Friend, I am there with you and I read a devotion the other day that really encouraged me to think more and ask myself - What am I asking God to do? The scripture used was one I have heard so many times - Ephesians 3:20 “Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us.”
I stopped and realized if I truly believe that He can do more than I ask am I asking for enough?
The Girl Talk podcast is woman encouraging woman - Send this to that friend who you know is stuck in the mundane of life right now - They will feel loved and encouraged that you thought of them to share some encouragement.
Hello ladies,
Lies are everywhere and they are extremely dangerous to our thinking - the more we speak and think them the more embed in our minds they become. The enemy wants nothing more than to trap us in a circle of lies and depressing thoughts. I have found personally the freedoom and peace that comes by recognizing the lies and disagreeing with them.
Friend we have the authority over these thoughts and lies. We are told in scripture to take EVERY thought captive.
@Dawn Magagnotti and I are sharing some of the commone lies we find in our life and hear from other friends often.
We want to encourage you to listen and search your mind and heart to see if you find any of these lies in your thought process. If so please know there is freedom and peace to be found by getting out of agreement with that lie.
If this episode leaves you with more questions or a desire to chat more about this conversation - My message box is open - I’d love to share with you friend more details on how I have found so much freedom and peace by getting out of agreement with lies from the enemy. 💕
There is so much beauty in living life free from the bondage of lies and in agreement with how our Father has called us to live.
Have you ever found yourself weighed down with the stress, worry and cares of the day?
⭐️ If you are anything like me - I find myself there many times and sometimes many times in one day.
I read a devotion recently that really helped me see how to cast your cares on God in a different light.
The devotion talked about playing catch with your Father. How fast can you take that worry or stress that you picked up and just throw it right over to your Father. ⚾️
1Peter 5:7 is not a new scripture and most of us have probably had it memorized since we were little, but this devotion shed a different light on the verse and I felt so encouraged after reading it. It was one of those devotions where you feel the smile on your face getting bigger and bigger as you read it becuase you feel His love and peace.❤️ I shared all these thoughts with you today on the podcast - I know you will leave feeling encouraged and share it with a friend who needs the encouragement too.
Hi ladies,
Dawn Magagnotti and I had the opportunity to talk recently and as business owners this conversation came up and we just knew we needed to share some thoughts with you friends.
We are talking about running a business with the Kingdom in mind. We all in some area are “running a business” whether we are running a business, an employee in a business, running a household - We each have a calling and how can we run that calling with the Kingdom in mind especially while we continue to juggle all the areas of life.
Some of the questions we dive into are :
Are we seeking the Kingdom first?
How do we walk through each day having the Lord first of mind?
Are we more excellent than the world?
Are we acquiring the knowledge needed?
Are we living each day in peace?
Take a few minutes to listen to these thoughts and share with a friend who comes to your mind. Let’s all seek to run each day with the Kingdom in mind first!
Find Dawn Magagnotti on Facebook or Instagram and give her a follow to stay up on her latest encouraging thoughts.
So often in life we look towards becoming successful, but what is true success?
Often we can look at “success” as an amount of money we have or a level to arrive at in a job, but can we be successful without these?
Is it possible to be “successful” as God would define success and be “poor”?
How can we live each day successful and what does the Bible tell us about success? This conversation with Dawn was so insightful and encouraging.
I encourage you ladies to research and seek the Fathers heart on these questions.
When we can get into agreement with what God calls success and live that way every day we can find a level of peace and freedom that is incredible!

Hi ladies,
Have you ever noticed that we as woman can be quick to judge?? Sometimes we don’t even notice we are judging or maybe we are unknowingly engaging in judgmental and hurtful conversations. My friend @Leah shared a conversation with me around this recently and I wanted her to share with you ladies too. No, this isn’t one of those flashy and exciting episodes, but it is truthful and I found it so helpful in my life. Leah has a heart of gold and spoke some incredible and powerful truth on this episode. I know it will be eye opening for you ladies and has an opportunity to help you navigate to new conversations.

Hey Girlfriends, I am excited to introduce to you Christa Ragland on this episode - Talking, Believing everyone is trying their BEST! I had the opportunity to get to know Christa and hear about her childhood. I learned Christa grew up in a much different home life than I did. She grew up in a divorced home and her outlook to her parents is what has me amazed. Through conversation Christa mentioned several times “I knew my mom was doing the best she could.” Hearing Christa say this reminded Brene Brown has mentioned in one of her books “Do you truly believe that everybody is trying their BEST?” This thought has had me captivated recently and changed my view of people. I know this episode will help you and if you find you are in a struggle similar please send a message and we will connect you with Christa for some personal prayer and encouragement. #GirlTalk #BelievingtheBEST #believeingeveryoneistryingtheirbest

Hey, Hey Girlfriends, We have a new episode to share today!! We are talking all about EMOTIONS!! Does anybody else just feel like you can go through a million emotions in just one day 😬😭😊😂🤪 @Ashleigh and I talk in detail about emotions and how we get to decide if we allow the emotions to control us or not.
