Summary

You may recognize Leigh-Allyn Baker as the hilarious mom from Good Luck Charlie on Disney Channel, but there’s so much more to her story than what we saw on screen. In this episode, Leigh-Allyn opens up about her journey through Hollywood, the courageous moments when she had to stand firm in her faith, and how God showed up in unexpected ways. We talk about what it really means to follow your convictions, even when it’s unpopular, and how creativity and purpose can bloom when the path ahead feels uncertain. This is a conversation about boldness, faith, and trusting that God makes a way—even when it looks different than we imagined.
