Ep. 041 -Divine Confidence, Joy, and the Courage to Smile With Sonrisa Hasselbach

In this uplifting and honest conversation, Rachel sits down with religious educator, speaker, and digital missionary Sonrisa Hasselbach to explore joy, confidence, faith, and the courage to keep showing up—even when life feels hard. Known for blending gospel truth with humor, Sonrisa shares how her love of making funny videos eventually merged with her testimony of Jesus Christ, creating a unique ministry of encouragement online. Together, Rachel and Sonrisa discuss why joy isn't merely the result of favorable circumstances but a divine attribute woven into our purpose as children of God. They also dive into the story of the woman with the issue of blood, the difference between worldly confidence and divine confidence, and how many women unknowingly sabotage themselves through negative self-talk. Sonrisa offers a powerful perspective on repentance—not as shame, but as turning toward Christ whenever our thoughts drift away from truth. If you've ever struggled with comparison, imposter syndrome, discouragement, or feeling "not enough," this episode is a reminder that confidence doesn't come from perfection. It comes from trusting the Savior and moving forward anyway. Connect with Sonrisa on Instagram: @once.upon.sunrisa
