Summary

Jennie sits down with Reece Weaver - Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader and breakout voice from Netflix’s America’s Sweethearts - to talk calling, character, and choosing to represent something bigger than yourself.

Reece shares her journey from a three-year-old dancer to D1 athlete to DCC, plus the unexpected spotlight of a hit Netflix show and how she’s learning to give every gift back to God for His glory. From body image and online pressure to marriage, mentorship, and leading with a servant’s heart, this conversation is tender, practical, and full of Jesus.

You’ll hear:
How to keep your identity rooted in Christ when the world has opinions
The power of servant leadership: representing something greater than yourself
Body image, health, and setting a realistic, healthy standard for the next generation
Why community, mentors, and Bible study matter when life gets loud
Marriage in the spotlight: staying a team when everything changes overnight
A simple posture for calling: “Lord, use me—one obedient step at a time”
