What story have you been living in?

At 17 years old, Cassandra Smith was living in silence, withdrawn from others, and facing a severe mental health crisis. Never did she imagine that years later she would give keynotes and TEDx talks, write books, lead mentorship programs, and create more than 200 downloadable resources to rally around the power of living your story to the fullest.

IF YOU’VE EVER WANTED TO REWRITE THE STORY OF YOUR LIFE, THIS IS THE EPISODE FOR YOU!

Cassandra is passionate about mental health wellness, believing people are not defined by what has happened to them in their life, but rather where they want to go. Her core message comes from asking the question: “What would your life look like if you were to take back the pen to the story of your life?”

The encouragement she brings comes from her personal story of moving out of darkness and into the light of believing God’s truth and stepping into a big dream He had given her.

Listen in and discover how you can learn to trust the Lord despite fear and how that’s just the beginning of changing the narrative of your life’s story.

In this episode she shares:

💡 how our dreams come alive through the everyday moments,

✨ practical advice on overcoming fear so you can find your voice, and

❤️ how building a support network is essential in navigating the uncertainty (and the meltdowns) that come when you start to pursue a dream

This inspiring podcast episode is for any Christian woman in search of encouragement about how to use your skills, talents, and life experience for the big dreams God has planted in your heart.

Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear
a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.”

Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let your hands not be idle, for you do not
know which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both will do equally well.

There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do
with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.
