Her teaching on generational connections and the power of mentorship changed my life. Now, she's sharing her wisdom that transformed my life - publicly here with you.   Tonya breaks down practical wisdom on what to look for in a mentor, how to approach those relationships with humility and honesty, and why "relational equity" is so vital. One of my favorite moments is when Tonya tells the story of her mother's obedience to God's prompting she witnessed growing up — a beautiful reminder that even the smallest "yes" to the Holy Spirit can change lives.

What if you're not behind—what if you're right where God has placed you, on a path towards His vision, simply based on each obedient yes?  Raised by her grandmother, Tiffany grew up not feeling chosen. So she did what so many of us do, Tiffany strove to be perfect. The Good girl. To do nothing wrong. She focused on safety and security. Get a secure corporate job. Climb that ladder. Stay. Safe. Be. Loved.  God had a very different, mind-blowing vision in mind for Tiffany's life.  Tiffany Alyssa Cardi - struggling in her own loneliness and hardships and seeking friends as a single woman in a new town - decided to try something. She had no idea if anyone would show up, not knowing the world was about to be dramatically impacted. Tiffany's one act of obedience led her to be the founder of Gals That Brunch, a global community movement that started with one morning meal and now reaches over 200,000 women in 155 cities across 33 countries. 🙌 This episode is about so much more than brunch—this is about stewardship, vision, and God's timing. Tiffany shares how God walked with her through media, ministry, and entrepreneurship—including (this was one of my BIGGEST questions!) how she bought an Airbnb in Italy and is now launching her own olive oil company (yes, really 🍈🇮🇹). All while helping women rise into their God-given callings. In this conversation of hope and encouragement, no matter your past, no matter what your family of origin looked like, listen in on:  ✨ The surprising story behind founding Gals That Brunch ✨ Why in-person connection is still so powerful in a digital age ✨ How to navigate faith in secular spaces without shrinking back ✨ What discipline, stewardship, and vulnerability really look like in the daily walk ✨ Tiffany's leap of faith that led her to international entrepreneurship ✨ Encouragement for anyone who feels "late," behind, or like they've missed their moment Whether you feel God calling you to launch a dream or want to finally feel the hope and confidence of Christ in everyday life, this conversation will stir something in your spirit. It's a reminder that God's vision never returns void—but it does ask for your "yes."

  Last year, I wrote an article about the pain of reaching age 32 as a Christian and still being unmarried.  Because with all my heart I looked to trust the Lord, to love Jesus, and...slapping verses on my emotions didn't mean I felt constant, hopeful joy in many of the realities and confusions I faced. I did not and will not sugar coat how I felt before meeting my now husband.   I was jaw-dropped at the number of messages and DMs I received from that article. It showed something. The loneliness and unique pain of being a single Christian over age 30 is a big deal, and there are silent pains and isolations I felt called to bring into the light.    In this episode, you'll sit with me as I share things I really haven't heard talked about anywhere else.    *Buying a home single...and how devastating that was *Examples of conversations and sentences that can be so hurtful as a single Christian in your 30s...that feel impossible to admit  *Some of the things I witnessed in ministry that weren't wrong and are beautiful, but felt like a proverbial knife again and again *The exhaustion from doing so much of life and decisions alone - for so long  *The struggle and question around advice that only focuses on the words "Trust God" - without the other pieces involved    Someone today is going to feel witnessed. Someone is going to feel seen.    The heartbeat of this episode is you know you're NOT alone. That you are SEEN.    Our stories may not match exactly, but the pain of our unique shared experience I sense will still connect us. I pray this episode sheds a light to address some of these shackles.      00:00 Introduction and Episode Overview 00:54 The Unique Pain of Singleness in Your Thirties 01:24 Addressing the Validity of Singlehood Emotions 06:39 The Impact of Church Leadership on Singlehood Perception 18:22 Personal Struggles and God's Guidance 23:18 The Challenges of Managing Life Solo 26:35 Empathy and Understanding for Singlehood 45:44 Hope and Encouragement for the Future   🎧 Subscribe & Share If this podcast spoke to you, share it with a friend and leave a review to help more listeners discover the healing power of Holy F! the podcast.

6 years ago, Sarah was searching for joy and hope. She became obsessed with self-improvement and finding herself in a spiritual awakening. Wanting to be a force for good in this world, she focused on manifesting her dream life, spending thousands and thousands of dollars on practitioners to get "well".  In the process of manifestation and self help, Sarah found herself sinking deeper and deeper into depression and (TRIGGER WARNING) with thoughts of ending her own life from negative, demonic voices.  Something wasn't working. Sarah only felt more empty, anxious, and increasingly tormented. Then, everything changed when she encountered Jesus. From a Direct Message sent through Instagram to a complete 180 transformation, Sarah recounts the peace, freedom, and joy she found the moment she asked Jesus into her heart. Maybe you've felt confusion about spirituality vs. Christianity or become skeptical about Jesus after a real, hurtful experience from church. Maybe you (like me and my guest) sought wellness and tried to manifest your dream life...only to still feel unwell. This is a raw conversation rooted in such experiences.  Whether you're a believer, a skeptic, or somewhere in between, you are so loved and held here. This episode dives into: The devesatation of spirituality practices that sound good and led Sarah to more depression and unwellness What "spiritual awakening" led to in Sarah's life The turning point that brought Sarah to Jesus and messaging Allison (Ally) on Instagram  The radical peace that replaced years of inner torment and demonic attack and what has happened in Sarah's life since  Sarah's testimony is a powerful reminder that Jesus does miraculous work to rescue, heal, and restore. If you've been searching for hope and to finally feel renewed, this conversation may provide deep healing relief, a kind of which I once searched for myself and pray is such a newfound open door today.  🎧 Subscribe & Share If this story moved you, share it with a friend and leave a review to help more listeners discover the healing power of Holy F! the podcast.

  In this raw episode, get out your feminine suitcases. I'm about to unpack my personal journey of once rejecting all things pink—breaking down my associations of the color with weakness, danger, and societal expectations of femininity—and how my aversion was rooted in deeper emotional wounds and trauma, things that were NOT of God or what He says in His Word.  Why this topic? I shared a short, 7 second clip on Instagram and was overcome by the emotional weight so many other women felt about: The color pink.  From years of only wearing black and hiding behind a tough exterior to rediscovering whole joy, softness, and healing (in a thrifted hot pink dress!), this story is about reclaiming parts of ourselves we learned to fear or reject. A pink thermos in hand and in pastel pink socks, I'll walk through exploring: Why so many women feel "anti-pink" without knowing why How color psychology reveals the power of pink The deeper cultural and spiritual implications of embracing femininity The enemy's tactic of twisting God-given beauty into something to fear Why the Proverbs 31 woman is the ultimate symbol of feminine strength (and what it says and does NOT say, which many us have taken on) And how a basement in New York City became a breakthrough moment This episode is for every woman who's ever said, "Pink isn't for me," and is now ready to challenge that narrative and embrace the full, God-crafted beauty of being a woman. 🌸 This audio experience is soft, gentle rallying dance to embrace pink—not as a stereotype, not because it does not have to be your new favorite color or obsession, but as a way to embrace the Lord's true calling of stepping into being women of God. With thoughts of pink tutus and sweet pastels, this milestone episode is a statement of strength in softness and the special, sacred identity as women of God. 📝 Resources & References: Proverbs 31 (The woman clothed in dignity and strength) Color psychology and feminine energy 🎧 Subscribe, rate, and leave a review if this episode stirred something in your heart.

If you're prone to people pleasing, fear judgement, and struggle to use your voice with honesty (no matter how "outgoing", "extrovert", or "introvert" you've labeled yourself as), this episode could transform someone's life.   I used to lose my voice one week a month. 25% of the time, I could not speak, which was absolutely delibitating to both life and work. Through years of challenges, an intense surgery at age 27, and ultimately a divine revelation, I've found that sometimes Jesus doesn't heal us instantly because there is something He's trying to transform for us.    In a story weaving through experiences with speech therapy, the role of a compassionate speech therapist, and the profound impact of one short sentence, I know someone is meant to hear my journey of constant voice loss that was revealing a deep terror and root struggle beneath.    The episode is infused with biblical references, particularly the story of Moses and the woman at the well, illustrating how God empowers us to speak and fulfill our purposes. Listener, my dear listener and friend, I pray this ignites someone to find courage in their struggles and trust in God's plan, knowing that their voice matters.   00:00 Introduction: The Struggle with Voice Loss 01:14 The Impact of Losing My Voice, the Detriment to My Life, Work, and Mental Health 02:21 A Turning Point: Surgery and Setbacks 02:46 The Role of Faith and God's Plan 03:16 Finally, I Got A More Clear Diagnosis and...A Surprising Next Step 10:40 Speech Therapy: The Mind-Blowing Way a Speech Therapist Saw My Heart and the Real Issues 20:58 Biblical Parallels: The Story of Moses and the Power of Voice 29:14 Conclusion: Embracing Your Voice and Purpose Because You Matter, Your Voice Matters, and Victory is Possible   Allison Evelyn Website:  AllisonEvelyn.com  Allison Evelyn IG:  https://www.instagram.com/allisonevelyn_/  Holy F Christian Podcast IG: https://www.instagram.com/holyfthepodcast/

Unsure what to do next? Did your plan or dream get flung out the kitchen window? This Christian podcast episode of hope and the power of God's plan may be perfect timing.  You'll hear how I was 28, sitting in San Diego, California…and had no idea what to do. The expected vision for my life had just vanished.  My ways were not working. I went all in for Jesus. I asked, "What's your will?" Jesus answered, and he called me to do something STARTLING that changed my life forever. Through prayer, unexpected confirmation, and a leap of faith, this is a story of what happened when Jesus took the wheel, car, and every other mode of transportation in my life.  If you're in your own moment of transition and uncertainty, if you're struggling with anxiety or asking, "What am I supposed to do?", this real life story can be a wild, jaw-dropping encouragement of what can happen when there's a trust in God's plan, even the tiniest minuscule mustard sead, and the power of obedience.   00:00 Sitting in San Diego, age 28, I asked God, "What do I do now?" 00:56 The Moment of Surrender and "God...is that you?!" 03:40 The Call to a Totally New Place (a WILD One) 04:37 Seeking Confirmation (And the 2 Hour Phone Call) 09:33 The Craigslist Moment 12:05 Letting God Choose My Apartment 17:20 Embracing God's Plan, When God is Transforming Our Desires to Match His 19:33 Encouragement, No Matter How Dark or Uncertain Things Feel Right Now     Allison Evelyn Website:  AllisonEvelyn.com  Allison Evelyn IG:  https://www.instagram.com/allisonevelyn_/  Holy F Christian Podcast IG: https://www.instagram.com/holyfthepodcast/
