Truth Speaks with Jessica Lauren

Hey friends, and welcome to the Truth Speaks podcast! I started this podcast because I believe that one of the best and most powerful things we can do is share life and conversations with others about the big things, about the hard things, & about the important things, and from this belief is where Truth Speaks was born. My desire is to cultivate intentional conversations with people in all kinds of different spaces, and I’m incredibly grateful you’re here to join us!

    Episode 14: Gina Hanna

    Gina Hanna is a world-shaker and I couldn’t be more stoked to be chatting with her today!! Gina is the founder of Beauty for Ashes, a prison ministry that serves incarcerated women here in Missouri. I’ve been working with the Beauty for Ashes program for the last three years and it’s truly been one of the best things I’ve ever been apart of. Today we are talking about how the Lord has used Gina's life and story to impact hundreds of women, what it looks like when you say yes to Jesus, trusting God with unknowns, and I just loved every minute. I have no doubt you will be incredibly encouraged by this conversation and I’m SO excited for you to hear!

    Episode #10: Tracy Smith

    Today’s episode is near and dear to my heart because I am chatting with none other than my sweet mom, Tracy Smith. She’s a wife, mom to four, owns a lavender farm (come on now!) and is all around one of the coolest people I know. Tracy has been a highly requested guest around here for good reason - because if you’ve met her, you’ll know she’s genuine to the core and loves her people so well. We’re talking about parenting, cultivating intentional relationships with your teenagers, navigating tough decisions like where to send your kids to school, and pretty much everything in between. My Mom is one of my best friends, so this really is us just hanging and chatting about life like we would on a random morning over coffee. I hope you’ll be so encouraged after today’s episode, because I know I sure was.  Find Tracy on Instagram!  Connect with Jessica Lauren on Instagram!

    Episode #7: Ty

    Y'all, today's episode is SO fun! I'm chatting with my friend Ty and goodness, we just had the best conversation. We chat about Ty's story, what it looks like to navigate hard & unknown decisions, his new life adventure as he heads overseas for two years, and of course - prison ministry. Because what's a podcast episode without talking about prison? Ty is such a genuine & passionate guy, and I'm so grateful we got to squeeze in this chat three days before he was leaving! I know that y'all will be incredibly encouraged by his heart and life, just like as was. So enjoy this conversation with my friend Ty!!  Stay in touch with Jessica on Instagram! @jessicalaurenphoto
