Summary

Hey friends! Welcome to Girls Night! At the moment we’re in between seasons here on the show. But while we’re waiting for our next official season to begin, we thought this would be a great time to pull some of our favorite episodes out of the Girls Night archive. This is the perfect time to catch up on episodes you might have missed, or listen again to old favorites. Today we’re talking about the beautiful things that can happen when your life doesn’t go according to plan. Several months ago, I had the privilege of being a guest on a podcast called, On the Front Porch. The hosts are two amazing women from our Girls Night community, Angela and Mary. They are so much fun. They asked amazing questions. And I loved the conversation so much I just knew I had to share it with y’all. I asked them if I could share the interview we did for their show here on Girls Night and they so graciously said yes! I’m excited about this episode because if you’re anything like me, you’ve had this picture in your head for a long time of how your life was going to play out. You were going to attend that school, get that degree, get hired for that one job you’ve always wanted, get married, have kids, buy your dream house and the list goes on! But, as most of us know, life doesn’t always play out like we want it to or in the time frame we hope it will. Sometimes God has a way of wrecking our plans, or at least that’s how it’s felt to me at several points along the way. And that’s the story you’ll get to hear today. In this episode, I’m sharing about my faith journey and how I met Jesus in the most unexpected way, and in the most unexpected place. I’m talking about several times when God completely wrecked my plans when it came to my career. And finally, I’m sharing how God completely transformed my outlook on dating and relationships and helped me make the most of my single life. You guys, I share so much of my story in this episode and how God has shown up in the BEST ways possible, and I truly believe he can and will do the same for you! Learn more about your ad choices.

0:00.0	Hey friends, welcome to Girls Night. I'm Stephanie May Wilson and I'm so happy that you're here.
0:09.8	Each week I have a girlfriend over and we talk through one of the biggest questions
0:13.1	we have about our lives as women. We're talking about friendships and faith and relationships
0:18.2	and self-confidence. A better calling in life and how to live every bit of our lives to the full.
0:23.8	Life is so much better and easier and absolutely more fun when we navigate together as
0:28.5	girlfriends and I cannot wait to get started. So at the moment we are in between seasons here
0:34.2	on the show. But while we're waiting for our next official season to begin, we thought that
0:38.0	this would be a great time to pull some of our favorite episodes out of the Girls Night Archive.
0:42.9	This is a great time to catch up on episodes you might have missed throughout the years or to
0:46.9	listen to old favorites all over again. Our guests are incredible. I know that I learned something
0:52.1	new each time I listened to an episode, even if it's one I've heard a million times before.
0:57.5	Okay, now without any further ado, let's dive into the episode.
1:05.6	Before we dive into the episode, there's something super fun I wanted to share with you.
1:09.9	Now there is nothing I love more than a girls trip. Friendship plus travel, is there anything
1:14.4	better? Nothing leaves me feeling more inspired, more rested, or more like my very best self
1:19.9	than an adventure with my best girls. It's truly my favorite form of self-care.
1:24.6	I was meeting up with my three best friends at a lake in Minnesota this last summer when we
1:28.6	decided that we needed matching girls trip shirts. Wanted? No, needed? Absolutely.
1:34.8	The problem was we couldn't find anything we liked. We couldn't find anything that was our style,
1:39.3	first of all. And then many of the shirts we did find had phrases we just really didn't resonate with.
1:44.8	We ended up buying some shirts that none of us were particularly excited about, but they worked
1:48.4	for a photo or two. And it was while I was on that trip, wearing that t-shirt that I had an idea.
