Hey y'all, welcome back to another episode of the Confessions of a Crappy Christian

Podcast.

I'm your host and resident crappy Christian Blake Giche, and I'm so pumped to be bringing

you season two of this show, packed full of more people telling incredible stories of who

God is and what he's done.

Today's episode is with Melissa Wilkins.

Melissa is a blogger, speaker, and author of Permission Granted.

Today we're talking about giving yourself permission to be who you actually are without

hiding or pushing other people away or apologizing.

Melissa, hey, thank you so much for coming on the show today.

Blake, thanks so much for having me.

I'm super excited to talk.
