Grace shares insights from her book, 'The Better Friend,' emphasizing the need for vulnerability, accountability, and the significance of showing up for one another in times of need.

Let’s Talk about Sex: Women’s Pleasure in Marriage with Kingdom Sexuality Ministry
Let’s talk about it—women’s pleasure in marriage. For too long, Christian women have been taught that sex is just for their husbands, leaving many feeling disconnected, ashamed, or even unaware of God’s true design for intimacy. But here’s the truth: God created pleasure for women, too!
In this episode, I sit down with Tiera and Alana from Kingdom Sexuality Ministry to unpack what the Bible really says about intimacy, how to break free from shame, and why understanding pleasure is essential to a thriving, God-honoring marriage.
What the Bible says about women’s pleasure in marriage
How purity culture shaped our view of intimacy—and what needs to change
Practical ways to embrace intimacy as a gift from God
How to communicate your needs in marriage with confidence
Biblical encouragement for women struggling with shame, guilt, or trauma
This is a conversation every Christian woman needs to hear—whether you’re newly married, struggling in this area, or just wanting to grow in intimacy with your spouse.

Back with a New Name: Taylor Swift, Charlie Kirk, and Christian Hot Takes You Didn’t See Coming
After months away on maternity leave, we’re back — and a lot has changed. In this episode, I open up about life after becoming a mom, what God’s been speaking in this season, and why this break was so needed. We’re also unveiling the new name of this podcast: She Lives Freed — a bold declaration over the women in this community and the mission behind every conversation we have.
We’re diving into some real and raw conversations this week, including:
The heart behind the rebrand
Life after maternity leave and how motherhood has reshaped my calling
My thoughts on the recent Charlie Kirk situation — and why it’s stirred up such an important conversation for believers
Why I don’t believe Taylor Swift should be celebrated as a role model for young girls — and the importance of discernment in pop culture
And more unfiltered, Spirit-led thoughts on culture, calling, and living boldly in truth
This episode is a reset, a reintroduction, and a rally cry for the women who are done playing small.
Takeaways:
God often uses seasons of rest to refine our purpose.
Culture will always try to disciple the next generation — it’s up to us to point them back to truth.
Living “freed” means living fearless, bold, and anchored in the Word, even when it’s unpopular.
