Hey friends, welcome to Girls Night. I'm Stephanie May Wilson and I am so happy that you're here.

Each week I have a girlfriend over and we talk through one of the biggest questions we have

0:14.0

about our lives as women. We're talking about friendships and faith and relationships and self-confidence

0:20.0

about our calling in life and how to live every bit of our lives to the full.
