Our friend, singer-songwriter Emma Valentine, sits down with Allie for a fun, off-script conversation designed to inspire and encourage teen girls and young women. Allie shares the wisdom she's learned in hopes of encouraging our community. Send this conversation to all the girls and women you love - to your daughter, best friend, the girls in your youth group, college group, etc.! This is the message our ministry seeks to share with every girl! Be sure to listen to part 1 - life wisdom with Emma Valentine, in which Allie puts her in the hot seat! 

Today's girls and young women have it hard! There are so many pressures they face daily. From social media and comparison to dating, body image, friendships, anxiety, and the pressure to have life all figured out, it can feel overwhelming to know who you are and where your worth comes from.
Allie shares honest encouragement and practical, faith-filled advice for navigating some of the biggest challenges teen girls and young women face. Together, Emma and Allie talk about building your identity in Christ rather than in others' opinions, finding confidence without chasing perfection, creating healthy relationships, setting boundaries with social media, and discovering the purpose God has for your life.
If you're looking for a mentor-like conversation for yourself or the girls and young women in your life filled with hope, truth, and encouragement, this is it!

Most young women are told that success, perfection, and social validation define worth. Emma Valentine's story challenges that belief. At just 23, she has faced public disappointment, criticism, and failure while performing as a finalist on The Voice only to discover that true identity is not found in achievements or appearances, but in God's unshakable love.
In this heartfelt episode, Emma shares how a painful moment on national TV became the catalyst for profound spiritual growth. Through failure and public scrutiny, she learned that God's love is the only reliable source of validation and that living for an audience of One brings freedom from comparison and self-obsession.
Together, we explore how to embrace your God-given worth, stay rooted in Scripture, and guard your heart in a culture obsessed with perfection. Emma offers practical wisdom for navigating setbacks, finding purpose, and experiencing true joy.
This episode is especially meaningful for teen girls and young women wrestling with questions of identity, worth, or confidence. Emma's story is a powerful reminder that failure does not define us—God's love does.
Emma Valentine is a singer, songwriter, and storyteller from Santa Cruz, California. Through her music and testimony, she shares hope, authenticity, and the love of her Creator.
Join us for an inspiring conversation about faith, purpose, and the freedom that comes from living for God's glory rather than the world's applause.

If you've ever felt like your pain was too deep for God to reach, this episode is for you. Sam Eaton — author, speaker, and founder of the Recklessly Alive Foundation — joins Allie to share his raw, honest story of walking through depression, suicidal ideation, and ultimately finding healing and a second chance at life. Sam has spoken at over 250 events across the US and has dedicated his life to helping others find hope, and in this conversation, he holds nothing back.
Together, Allie and Sam break down what depression actually is (hint: it's a brain health issue, not a faith failure), why it's okay to be angry at God, and how Scripture quietly speaks back to every lie depression tells you. From bold action to self-worth rooted in your identity in Christ, this conversation is full of real tools, not just inspiration.
Whether you're personally fighting to get through the day, or you love someone who is, this episode could genuinely change a life. God's purpose for your life is real — even when your brain is telling you otherwise. You are fearfully and wonderfully made, and this conversation is a reminder that healing is possible, hope is real, and you are not alone. Share this one widely.
