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

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

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

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

Life is so much better and easier and absolutely more fun when we navigate it together as

girlfriends and I cannot wait to get started. Our guest for today's episode is my new friend

Tony Collier. Tony is a Hope coach, the author of Brave Enough to Be Broken and the founder of

Broken Cran Still Color, an international women's ministry that helps women process their brokenness

and reclaim hope. After a lifetime of Caldhatt trauma navigating a toxic marriage and divorce,

an unhealthy church becoming a single parent, feeling betrayed and more,

Tony has learned how to find hope and healing in the midst of her pain and that's what we're talking

about today. Here are just a few of the things that she's going to talk to us about in this episode.

We're going to talk about how to rebuild your life after experiencing brokenness and pain,

how to release ourselves from the pressure of perfectionism, how God can restore our hope and

use our past experiences for good, why therapy has played a vital role in her healing journey,

and how the practice of gratitude can change your life.

Ren, if you are in hard season right now or if you're looking back at your past and wondering how

any good can come from it, this episode's for you. I'm praying that you walk away feeling so

encouraged, your story is not over. But before we dive in, I have a resource I wanted to share with

you and it's called The Between Places, a hundred days to trust in God when you don't know what's next.

Here's the thing, we all find ourselves in between places throughout our lives, especially these days,

right? Maybe you're waiting for something, longing for something, or working for something,
