The Becoming Her Podcast with Jessica Young

Jessica Young

Welcome to The Becoming Her Podcast with Jessica Young. I’m so glad you’re here. A little about me — I’m someone who’s deeply passionate about helping women grow into the strongest version of themselves mentally, physically, and spiritually. Faith is the center of everything I do, and through coaching, fitness, and the conversations I’ve had with women over the years, I’ve seen how much our mindset, our habits, and our relationship with God shape the direction of our lives. I’ve also learned that a lot of us feel the same things at different points in life — stuck, overwhelmed, unsure of where we’re going, or feeling like we were made for more but not knowing how to get there. That’s exactly why this podcast exists. Each week we talk about real life — faith, mindset, discipline, relationships, confidence, health, and personal growth — the things that truly shape the woman you’re becoming. Some episodes will feel like encouragement you didn’t know you needed. Some will challenge the way you think. And some will simply remind you that you’re not walking through life alone. Think of this podcast like sitting down with a friend who genuinely wants to see you grow, believes in who you’re becoming, and is here to help you move forward with stronger faith, more confidence, and a clearer sense of purpose. And if you’re a guy who somehow found your way here… welcome and don't worry I will be talking about things that will apply to you too. So, yes, you’re still allowed to listen — you might even learn a thing or two about the women in your life. Becoming the woman (or man) God created you to be doesn’t happen overnight. It happens one decision, one mindset shift, and one step of faith at a time. And day by day… you become her.

    Hey You — God Can't Fill Hands You Won't Open

    Hey you… maybe the reason you feel stuck isn’t because God isn’t listening. Maybe it’s because you’re still holding on too tightly. We pray for healing, growth, freedom, purpose, relationships, opportunities, and breakthrough — but so many of us struggle to actually let God into the places that need to change because we’re consumed by fear, doubt, control, or old attachments. It’s hard to receive from God when you’re walking around with closed hands. In this episode, I’m talking about surrender, doubt, spiritual strongholds, and the reality that before the promises of God can fully be received, some ties to the enemy have to be broken first. Because sometimes the thing blocking your breakthrough isn’t God withholding something from you — it’s the fear, habits, mindsets, distractions, or attachments you’re still refusing to release. God can’t fully move through hands that are too busy gripping control. If you’ve been praying for change while still struggling to let go, I hope this episode reminds you that surrender isn’t weakness — it’s trust. Open your hands. Open your heart. And let God do what needs to be done. If this episode spoke to you, send it to someone who needs it. And if you’re working on your faith, your mindset, and becoming the woman God created you to be, make sure you’re following The Becoming Her Podcast. If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who needs it. And if you’re working on your faith, your mindset, and becoming the woman God created you to be, make sure you follow The Becoming Her Podcast so you don’t miss what’s coming next.

    Can We Talk About Why We Treat God Like a One-Hit Wonder?

    Can we talk about something? I think a lot of us treat God like He's a one-hit wonder. We celebrate the prayers He's already answered, the miracles He's already done, and the ways He's been faithful in the past… but the moment we walk into a new season of uncertainty, we start wondering if He's forgotten about us. I've caught myself doing this too. In this episode, we're talking about our tendency to forget God's faithfulness when life gets hard, why we have such short spiritual memories, and how quickly we let fear become louder than everything God has already done in our lives. We'll also talk about the difference between remembering God's miracles and remembering His character—because miracles may look different from season to season, but God's character never changes. Maybe the reason you're struggling to trust God today isn't because He's changed. Maybe it's because you've forgotten how faithful He's already been. In this episode, we talk about: • why we have "spiritual amnesia" in difficult seasons • why we remember our problems more than God's provision • how fear causes us to forget God's faithfulness • why God isn't a "one-hit wonder" • practical ways to remember what God has already done in your life If you've been questioning God lately, waiting on an answer, or wondering if He's still working, I hope this conversation encourages you to look back before you look ahead. Sometimes the greatest reminder of God's faithfulness isn't found in what's next. It's found in remembering where He's already brought you from. Reflection Question: What has God already done in your life that you've forgotten to thank Him for? If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who needs the reminder. And if you're working on your faith, your mindset, and becoming the woman God created you to be, make sure you're following The Becoming Her Podcast. If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who needs it. And if you’re working on your faith, your mindset, and becoming the woman God created you to be, make sure you follow The Becoming Her Podcast so you don’t miss what’s coming next.

  3. Hey You — Even Leaders Need Leadership

    Hey You — Even Leaders Need Leadership

    Hey you… frustration does not mean you’re failing. One thing I’ve been learning lately is that great leaders and strong people learn how to sustain ambition even in the face of frustration. And honestly, that’s easier said than done. Because frustration can make you question everything. It can make you feel discouraged, emotionally exhausted, and tempted to give up on the very things you once felt called to. But something else I’ve realized is this: leaders still need leadership. Strong people still need support. And trying to carry everything alone will eventually wear you down. In this episode, I’m talking about what it feels like to keep showing up while frustrated, why having people to talk things through with matters more than we realize, and how growth becomes so much harder when you isolate yourself. Even the people pouring into others need someone pouring into them too. I also open up about the importance of coaching, guidance, and having the right people around you in seasons where your mindset, ambition, and emotions are being challenged. Frustration is part of growth. But you were never meant to carry it all by yourself. If this episode spoke to you, send it to someone who needs it. And if you’re working on your faith, your mindset, and becoming the woman God created you to be, make sure you’re following The Becoming Her Podcast. If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who needs it. And if you’re working on your faith, your mindset, and becoming the woman God created you to be, make sure you follow The Becoming Her Podcast so you don’t miss what’s coming next.

    Can We Talk About Why We Neglect the Bodies God Gave Us?

    Can we talk about something? I think somewhere along the way, we've accidentally separated our faith from our health. We pray for more energy, more time, more discipline, and for God to use us in bigger ways… but we often neglect the very body He gave us to carry out that purpose. And no, I don't believe God cares about your health because He wants you to look a certain way. I believe He cares because He loves you. In this episode, we're talking about why your health is so much bigger than weight loss, why taking care of yourself isn't vanity, and how stewardship, consistency, and honoring your body can actually be an act of obedience. Because God didn't create our bodies to be worshipped… but He also didn't create them to be ignored. We'll talk about the pressure to be perfect, how diet culture has distorted our perspective, and why sustainable habits matter more than extreme transformations. Most importantly, I want to remind you that taking care of yourself isn't selfish. It's stewardship. In this episode, we talk about: • why God cares about your health • why health is bigger than weight loss • how your body is part of your purpose • why consistency matters more than perfection • how diet culture has distorted our view of health • why taking care of yourself is an act of stewardship, not vanity If you've been struggling to prioritize yourself, this is your reminder that your health matters—not because of how you look, but because of the life you've been called to live. Your body is part of your purpose. And maybe taking care of yourself isn't about changing your body at all. Maybe it's about honoring the life you've been given. If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who needs it. And if you’re working on your faith, your mindset, and becoming the woman God created you to be, make sure you follow The Becoming Her Podcast so you don’t miss what’s coming next.

    Hey You — This Leprosy Is Not Your Legacy

    Hey you… this leprosy is not your legacy. That phrase hit me deeply after hearing it in a sermon because for so long, I allowed other people’s opinions, labels, and perceptions of me to shape how I saw myself. I believed what people said about me. I carried shame from past mistakes. And I started identifying with old versions of myself that God was trying to heal me from. But just because you’ve gone through something doesn’t mean it’s supposed to define the rest of your life. In this episode, I’m talking about letting go of the labels people placed on you, breaking free from the shame tied to your past, and learning how to stop carrying an identity that God never intended for you to keep wearing. Your struggle is not your identity. Your mistakes are not your future. And what hurt you does not get to name you forever. This leprosy is not your legacy. If this episode spoke to you, send it to someone who needs it. And if you’re working on your faith, your mindset, and becoming the woman God created you to be, make sure you’re following The Becoming Her Podcast.

    Let's Talk About What Happens After the Mountaintop

    Have you ever noticed how easy it is to feel close to God, inspired, motivated, and excited when you're at a conference, retreat, church event, race weekend, or surrounded by people who are pushing you forward? But then you come home. The event ends. The excitement fades. The routine returns. And suddenly you're left wondering how to carry everything you experienced back into everyday life. In this episode, I'm sharing some thoughts I've been processing after returning home from Summer Smash and why I think so many of us spend our lives chasing mountaintop moments instead of allowing God to transform us in the ordinary days. Because the truth is, the event isn't what changes your life. What you do when you get home does. We're talking about motivation, discipline, emotional highs, spiritual growth, and why God isn't just present in the exciting moments—He's present in the quiet, ordinary ones too. If you've ever come back from a trip, conference, retreat, church camp, race, or major life experience feeling inspired but unsure how to carry it forward, this conversation is for you. In this episode, we talk about: • why we become addicted to motivation and inspiration • the difference between emotional highs and real transformation • why growth happens after the event ends • how to steward what God teaches you in mountaintop moments • finding God in ordinary, everyday life Sometimes we're so busy looking for the next breakthrough that we forget to live out the last one. Maybe the next season of growth isn't found at another event. Maybe it's found in what you do when you get home. If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who needs it. And if you're working on your faith, your mindset, and becoming the woman God created you to be, make sure you're following The Becoming Her Podcast. If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who needs it.

  7. Hey You — Are You Following God, or Expecting Him to Follow You?

    Jun 13

    Hey You — Are You Following God, or Expecting Him to Follow You?

    Hey you… are you truly following God, or are you asking Him to follow the life you already planned out for yourself? A lot of us say we trust God, but deep down we still expect Him to bless our timeline, our plans, and our version of how life is supposed to go. Then when things don’t work out the way we wanted, we become frustrated, disappointed, confused, or even angry at God. But what if the problem isn’t that God failed you? What if He’s simply not following a plan He never created in the first place? In this episode, I’m talking about surrender, control, disappointment, and the uncomfortable reality that following God sometimes means letting go of the version of life we thought we wanted. Because real faith isn’t asking God to walk behind your plans. It’s trusting Him enough to follow wherever He leads. If you’ve been frustrated with where life is going lately, maybe this is your reminder that God sees a bigger picture than you do. And maybe where He’s leading you is better than where you were trying to go on your own. If this episode spoke to you, send it to someone who needs it. And if you’re working on your faith, your mindset, and becoming the woman God created you to be, make sure you’re following The Becoming Her Podcast. If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who needs it.

    Hey You — Why Do We Trust Planes More Than God?

    Hey you… isn’t it crazy how easily we trust a plane to take us somewhere we’ve never been, but we struggle to trust God with our lives? We’ll book flights, pack our bags, and confidently travel to places we’ve never seen before without fully understanding how we’re getting there. But the moment God starts leading us into unfamiliar territory, we panic, overthink, doubt ourselves, and start questioning everything. In this episode, I’m talking about trust, fear, uncertainty, and why so many of us are tempted to give up the moment life feels unclear or uncomfortable. Just because you can’t see the full picture doesn’t mean God isn’t leading you somewhere beautiful. If you’ve been feeling discouraged, exhausted, or unsure about where your life is headed, I hope this episode reminds you that faith was never about having all the answers — it was about trusting God enough to keep going anyway. You don’t need the full map. You just need to trust the One guiding you. If this episode spoke to you, send it to someone who needs it. And if you’re working on your faith, your mindset, and becoming the woman God created you to be, make sure you’re following The Becoming Her Podcast. If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who needs it.
