Summary

The one and only Lisa Bevere. Lisa brings the fire and preaches the "bark off a tree" as I say in this episode, as she shares about her new book Godmothers. Lisa shares what a Godmother really is (spoiler alert: it's not a magical fairy or mafia mother figure!) and why we all need spiritually mature women intentionally speaking into our lives. We also tackle mom guilt, how to start actually enjoying our lives instead of performing for others, and why it takes courage for older women to approach mentoring relationships. We also talk about: -How to nurture your dream in the early stages -The amazing advice another mom gave her early on -Why women need each other more than ever in 2020 Favorite quotes: A godmother is a mother who is always going to point you towards godliness. This means she’s going to ask you the questions you don’t want to answer and tell you the things you don’t necessarily want to hear. A godmother is someone who will be by your side, not necessarily on it because you could be wrong. But she will be by your side pointing you to growth and blessing what is in your life from your own hard lessons. I have the right to write my life. I have the right to move forward with strength just like everybody else does. God is inviting us to write our lives well. Which means we need to do it with intent and an awareness that we have a story behind us and a story in front of us. You are not allowed to let the enemy’s narrative be the last page of your story. Sometimes God says step outside so that something inside of you can be enlarged. We need to be people who understand that our God turned hopelessness into a victory.
