UncommonTEEN for Christian Teen Girls

You have a list. Things you want to be different when you walk back into school this fall — less anxiety, more peace, bolder faith, actually liking who you see in the mirror. But here's the truth nobody's going to sugarcoat for you: just because you want something doesn't mean you're going to get it. In order to see a change, you need to change.

This summer is not a pause from becoming — it's the building season. In this episode Coach Jamie shares five habits you can start today that will take you exactly where you want to be by September.

Plus — details on UncommonTEEN Live: Known 2026. Early bird pricing ends July 18th. Don't miss it.

Have you been hiding your light? Not because the light went out — but because fear, insecurity, or the pressure to fit in talked you into staying small?

In this episode, Coach Jamie gets real about what it actually means to shine different — and why blending in is costing you more than you think. We're diving into Acts 4:13 and talking about what God says about ordinary girls doing extraordinary things.

Plus three practical things you can do THIS WEEK to stop shrinking and start shining.

You were not made to hide. You were made to shine different.

Are you actually living like a Christian — or just blending in?

Jesus didn't suggest it. He said you are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. But what happens when salt loses its flavor? What happens when you hide your light because of fear or peer pressure?

In this episode of the UncommonTEEN Podcast, Coach Jamie breaks down Matthew 5:13-16 and gets really honest about what it looks like to live as salt and light in today's culture — at school, in your friend group, on social media, at the pool.

In this episode:

What salt and light actually meant in Bible times (this will change how you read it)

The real meaning behind "tasteless salt" — and why Jesus used the word for moron or fool

How to know if you've been blending in more than standing out

A practical 3-step reset if you've lost your saltiness

How to shine your light without being preachy or weird about it

The one-week cultural detox that could genuinely change how you think

This isn't about being perfect. It's about being different — in the most beautiful, compelling way.

You are not too broken. You are not too far gone. You are not too anything for God to use. 🤍

I am beautiful. I am valuable. My beauty and my value don't change — even if someone fails to see how incredible God made me.

Have you ever wanted a mentor but had NO idea how to actually find one? 👇

Reese asked the question so many of you have thought but never said out loud — and today we're answering it.

In this episode, Coach Jamie breaks down:

What a mentor actually IS (and isn't)

Why God never intended you to do life alone

What to look for in a godly mentor

The exact steps to finding one — even if you don't know where to start

Because here's the truth: when you don't know who you are in Christ, you'll look for validation everywhere else — and it never fills you up. A mentor helps you get rooted in your God-given identity so you can walk in real confidence.

Not self-confidence. God confidence.

Whether you have a mentor, you're looking for one, or you don't even know where to begin — this episode is for you.
