    Boundaries vs. Walls: How to Protect Yourself Without Shutting Down | EP145

Together, they break down what boundaries actually are, how to be proactive instead of reactive, and how discernment helps you show up as yourself without giving everyone full access.

    Joseph’s Destination Wasn’t the Palace… It Was the Famine | FT Joy Pittman | EP144

    Jess sits down with Joy Pittman to unpack Joseph in a way that shifts everything. What if the destination was never the palace… but the famine? What if elevation wasn’t about validation, but positioning? This episode challenges labels, reframes calling, and reminds you to occupy your seat wherever you’re placed. If you’ve been shrinking or questioning your assignment, this conversation will give you language — and the prayer at the end will seal it. Share it. Review it. And let’s keep building.

    When Creating Feels Like Warfare: Desiree Danielle’s Story + New Book | EP143

    Description: Jess and Desiree Danielle have an honest conversation about what it means to be “created to create” — and why your obedience still counts even when the response is quiet. Desiree shares how her new book was birthed through prayer, the fear of opinions, and the vulnerable shift from producing others to releasing her own voice. Together, they talk excellence vs. perfection, using what’s in your hands, and why God can trust you with more when you’re faithful with what you already have. Connect With Our Guest: Desiree Danielle is a multi-faceted creative—photographer, writer, podcast producer, licensed cosmetologist, and worship dancer—whose life and work flow at the intersection of faith and creativity. Through her words, images, and ministry, she empowers others to see their gifts as sacred assignments rather than just talents. Desiree is passionate about helping people embrace their God-given identity with boldness and obedience, reminding them that creativity is not extra—it’s embedded in their design.
