  Rooted in Grace with Brittany Sawrey-Coulson

  Aug 10, 202638 min

  What if the greatest barrier to experiencing God's love isn't our circumstances—but the belief that we have to earn it? Terra Mattson welcomes licensed professional counselor and The Path co-author Brittany Sawrey-Coulson for an honest conversation about the difference between living rooted in grace and getting stuck on the treadmill of performance-based faith. As they explore the subtle messages of shame that tell us we're never enough, Terra and Brittany unpack how God's grace invites us into freedom, authenticity, and a deeper understanding of our identity in Christ. Performance vs. grace – How to recognize when we're striving for God's approval instead of resting in His love. Breaking the cycle of shame – Why bringing our fears into the light with God and trusted people is key to healing. Trusting God's heart – How small steps of vulnerability help us receive the love we've been longing for. Modeling freedom for our daughters – Why embracing our own identity and grace creates space for our girls to do the same. Performance tells us to keep striving. Grace reminds us we are already deeply loved. Through personal stories, practical encouragement, and biblical wisdom, this conversation offers hope for every mom who longs to let go of shame, trust God's heart more fully, and model a grace-filled faith for her daughter.

  The Power of Community with Aimee Eckley

  Jul 27, 202647 min

  What if the greatest gift we can give our daughters is not a perfect path, but a community of women who help us walk it alongside them? In this episode of Courageous Girls, Terra Mattson sits down with Aimee Eckley to talk about the lasting impact of intentional community, discovering our God-given gifts, and creating spaces where both moms and daughters can grow in faith, confidence, and identity. They explore how Courageous Girls groups become more than just gatherings—they become places where women are seen, encouraged, challenged, and reminded of who God created them to be. Discovering our gifts – How community helps us recognize strengths we may have overlooked and calls out the unique ways God has wired us to contribute. The power of women modeling faith – Why our daughters need to see a variety of godly women living out their gifts, passions, and purpose. Building lasting connection – How intentional conversations, consistency, and shared experiences create deep trust between moms and daughters. Starting before we feel ready – Why we don’t need to have everything figured out to begin building meaningful community. The journey of raising daughters is beautiful, challenging, and far too important to do in isolation. As we surround ourselves with women who speak truth, offer wisdom, and point us back to Jesus, we become the kind of community our daughters need to see. May we be women who are willing to start, willing to show up, and willing to trust that God can use our relationships to shape generations.

  Start Your Day Differently with Tara Beth Leach

  Jun 29, 202632 min

  We live in a world that is constantly competing for our attention. Before our feet hit the floor, our minds can already be filled with notifications, responsibilities, worries, and endless distractions. But God gently invites us into something different—a daily rhythm of beginning with Him. In this episode of Courageous Girls, we sit down with pastor, author, and teacher Tara Beth Leach to talk about cultivating meaningful time with God and why the first moments of our day can shape everything that follows. Drawing from her book The Great Morning Revolution, Tara Beth shares how a season of grief, caregiving, and spiritual exhaustion led her to rediscover the life-giving practice of meeting with God each morning. Together, we explore how quiet time isn’t about checking a spiritual box or striving for perfection—it’s about creating space to be present with God, receive His grace, and allow His voice to guide our hearts through every season. 🔹 Beginning with God, not distraction – Why the first moments of our day matter and how small, consistent rhythms can transform our spiritual lives. 🔹 Grace over guilt – How to release unrealistic expectations and embrace simple, sustainable practices that help us stay connected to God. 🔹 The power of daily spiritual habits – A practical look at Tara Beth’s GREAT framework: Gratitude, Reflection, Exaltation, Asking, and Trusting. 🔹 Modeling faith for the next generation – Why our daughters learn as much from what they see us practice as from what we teach them. 🔹 Trusting God in every season – How surrendering our plans, fears, and uncertainties to God helps us walk with greater peace and confidence. With honesty, wisdom, and deep encouragement, Tara Beth reminds us that meaningful time with God doesn’t require perfect circumstances or endless hours. Whether you have five minutes or fifty, God is always inviting you to take the next faithful step. As we learn to begin our days with Him, we discover that His presence is enough—and that His mercies truly are new every morning.

  Sacred Sisterhood: Why Women Need Women with Natalie Runion

  Jun 15, 202638 min

  Relationships with other women can be some of the greatest gifts in our lives—and some of the places where we've experienced the deepest wounds. From gossip and comparison to jealousy, competition, and church hurt, many of us carry stories that make friendship feel complicated. But what if God has something better for us and for our daughters? In this episode of Courageous Girls, we sit down with Natalie Runion, author of I Don't Even Like Women (and Other Lies That Get in the Way of Sacred Sisterhood), to talk about the challenges and beauty of building meaningful relationships with other women. Natalie shares her own journey from avoiding women's ministry to discovering that God often uses other women to bring healing, wisdom, and transformation into our lives. Together, we explore how moms can model healthy friendships for their daughters, navigate gossip and conflict with grace, and create communities where women of all ages can flourish together. 🔹 Moving beyond gossip – Why gossip is often rooted in a desire to belong, and how we can become women who build trust, safety, and connection instead of division. 🔹 Understanding jealousy and comparison – How insecurity, social media, and a scarcity mindset fuel competition, and how God's truth frees us to celebrate one another. 🔹 Raising daughters with empathy – Why it's important to look beyond labels like "mean girl" or "drama queen" and help girls understand the deeper hurts and needs behind difficult behavior. 🔹 The gift of sacred sisterhood – How women need women at every stage of life, and why multi-generational friendships can become a powerful source of encouragement, wisdom, and faith. With honesty, humor, and biblical wisdom, Natalie reminds us that we were never meant to navigate life alone. God often works through the voices, prayers, and presence of other women to strengthen us and our daughters. As we learn to pursue connection over comparison and grace over judgment, we create space for the kind of sisterhood that reflects the heart of God and leaves a lasting legacy for the next generation.
