In part two of our conversation with Nicole Massey Martin, we dig deeper into what it means to embrace who we are as women—even when self-doubt creeps in—and the importance of bringing those moments back to the Lord. Nicole shares the heart and conviction behind writing Nailing It, and we explore how leadership has evolved not only in the church but across every sphere. We also talk about surrendering our ministry ambitions and idols, and what it looks like to walk faithfully through seasons of suffering and sacrifice.

In part two of our conversation with Jessica Rivers, we dive deeper into the battle for significance and the lies the enemy uses to distract us—especially through comparison and the constant noise of the world. As women, it’s easy to get caught up in measuring ourselves against others or numbing out through endless scrolling. Jessica shares wisdom on how to stay focused on God’s voice and the importance of guarding who we allow to speak into our lives. What distractions is the enemy using to pull your eyes away from truth?
