We each grew up in different cities with completely different backgrounds, but God knit our hearts together more than 10 years ago when we found ourselves attending the same church. Over time, our friendship has only continued to grow stronger.

Having been there for each other through life’s many ups and downs, we’ve seen each other at our best and at our worst.  The conclusion we have all reached is that sharing our “uglies” (our faults, our failures, and our mishaps) has been just as beautiful as sharing our “pretties” (our joys, our victories, and our accomplishments).  Being REAL and AUTHENTIC is so much more attractive than being PERFECT!  Over the years, we have built such a circle of trust that we know that we can be completely honest with each other without fear of judgment, critique, or comparison.  By creating that safe place, we have been able to shed our masks and freely be who we are, with no pretenses.

Society tells us jealousy and competitiveness hide and simmer underneath the surface of women’s relationships. We believe women can choose to create a different culture!  A culture where we genuinely and wildly cheer on our fellow sisters in their accomplishments and successes because we know their successes don’t negate who we are!  A culture that reflects the heart of the Father, where truth is spoken with so much love that even if it’s hard to hear, you reach for it and accept it because your heart has been cared for so well. A culture where you don’t even have to say, “Please don’t tell anyone,” because you already know they’re not going to. A culture where there’s no competition or comparison and you can literally just BE YOU and breathe, because you know you’re completely safe, accepted, and valued for who you are.  A culture where you intentionally choose to peel off your masks, because you no longer need to pretend to be someone you’re not.

We invite you into this culture with us. It’s not a perfect place, because God is still working on us. However, we hope that as we openly share our hearts and minds and the things that God is teaching us, you will find a place where you can receive hope and encouragement, as we explore together what it means to live life out loud.
