This week on the podcast we were joined by Shauna Azariah. She spoke a lot of wisdom about identity, integrity, life goals and having a relationship with God.
Shauna serves on team as part of our church and also works in a very high pressure job in the events industry. This experience has given her great insight into what it’s like to be a working professional while also being a Christian. In this episode, Shauna gives some fantastic practical advice on how to stick to your values at work and with friends, how to achieve all sorts of life goals - both personal and career related - and how to overcome obstacles along the way.
There was also an almost perfect 60 seconds score in this episode… tune in to find out the record to beat!
We’re back with another breakout, this time with Jess McDonald who joined us last week to speak about her experience with a life threatening allergy. In this short discussion Jess talks more about how she continues to trust God day to day and how she has handed God the anxieties that come with something this serious.
In a previous episode, we were joined by Abi Soganile, however she had more wisdom than we had time for! In this first breakout session we are following up from that episode with a short, focused discussion with her on the topic of singleness.
