Summary

Have you ever doubted your gifts and abilities because you are a woman? Has it ever been difficult to rise to a leadership position in your career, as an entrepreneur or as a woman in ministry? Makayla and Valerie are young women with careers and businesses who also volunteer in ministry positions at The Father’s House OC. In this episode we touch on: Struggles using your gifts Navigating overwhelm when serving Rising up to your potential calling I thought that being sensitive was a weakness that I had to repress. That, my friend, is a lie from the pit of hell. I want to encourage women to continue to use their gifts wherever God has placed them for their good and the benefit of the Kingdom of God. I will continue to share my story to help women go places that I never could. Don’t be ashamed of how God fashioned you. Maybe you are not in a leadership role, but whatever you are doing, do it with excellence. Embrace your God given femininity and step into whatever season you are in with strength and confidence. Let us know how you are owning your femininity by tagging @BiancaOlthoff @Makayylay and @Valortega Until next time, friends! Love, B RESOURCES/LINKS The 5AM Club: Own Your Morning.

0:07.6	Girl, listen. We're going there. For International Women's Day, we are taking over Bianca's

0:47.6	All right. So what is your personal journey first off with leading and with ministry?
0:53.3	Well, I have to, I got to go back a number of years. So

1:09.5	team and captain of the soccer team, and yet I never
1:12.1	really found myself as a leader. And I found myself in leadership positions, but I always just

1:22.3	or identifying their leadership potential, I was like, that's cool for those people. That's just
