We are a community of women, disciples of Christ, who believe in supporting other women right where they are in the adult entertainment industry. Our hope is to remind every woman that they are loved by their Creator, that they were created with a purpose
In Mark 4:35, the disciples found themselves caught in the middle of a violent storm while Jesus slept peacefully in the boat. What's powerful is that it wasn't the storm that woke Jesus — it was the sound of His disciples' voices crying out to Him.In today's episode, we talk about what it means to trust God in the middle of life's storms. Jesus wasn't afraid of the wind or the waves because even creation obeys Him. Sometimes the storm around us feels overwhelming, but our faith is not built on understanding God's activity — it's built on confidence in God's character.Romans 10 reminds us that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God. So wherever you are today — whether you feel exhausted, uncertain, stuck, or tossed around by circumstances — we pray this episode reminds you that Jesus is still present in the storm, and He is still speaking, “Peace, be still.”We also share a trauma-informed message for women who may feel pressure to leave difficult situations before they are emotionally, mentally, spiritually, or physically ready. Healing is not linear, and shame has no place in your story. There is grace for the process, and your life has immeasurable value.You are loved by your Creator.You are not forgotten.And the storm does not get the final word.If you need support:National Domestic Violence Hotline: 800-799-SAFE (7233)National Human Trafficking Hotline: 888-373-7888Text “BEFREE” to 233733
Episode Title: Born With PurposeIn this powerful episode of Whispers of Hope, we explore the truth that purpose isn't something you earn—it's something you're born into, even in the midst of pain, struggle, and imperfection.In our trauma-informed segment, we take a deeper look at trauma bonds—what they are, how they form, and the 7 phases of the cycle that can keep people emotionally and psychologically stuck. With compassion and clarity, we unpack these patterns to bring awareness, validation, and the first steps toward healing.In our devotional, Abby walks us through the story of Samson in the book of Judges. Though Samson was flawed and made difficult choices, he was still called, still anointed, and still used by God. His story reminds us that our imperfections do not disqualify us from purpose. God's calling remains, and His strength is made perfect in our weakness.This episode is a reminder that no matter your past or your present circumstances—you were born with purpose, and hope is never out of reach.

In this episode, we take a deeper look at what's really at the heart of the season-and it might not be what you think. In our trauma-informed segment, we unpack the subtle but powerful harm of "shoulding" on people-the expectations, pressures and judgements we place on ourselves and others. We explore how these messages can impact our healing, relationships, and sense of worth, and offer a more compassionate, grounded way forward. In the discipleship portion, Abby walks us through the final week of Jesus' life-from the celebration of Palm Sunday, through the intimacy of the Last Supper, the weight of the cross, and ultimately the hope of the resurrection. Together, we reflect on what this journey means for us today and why the story is so much bigger than surface-level traditions. Whether you're navigating your own healing, exploring your faith, or simply curious about the deeper meaning behind this season, this episode invites you to slow down, reflect, and engage with what truly matters.
In this episode, Lampstands, Abby shares a powerful discipleship message about what it means to truly know and apply the Word of God in our everyday lives. She reminds us that we aren't just called to hear truth—we're called to live it, carry it, and reflect it. As lampstands, we are meant to hold and shine light in dark places, not by striving for perfection, but by staying connected to God and allowing His truth to guide us. We also include a survivor-informed, trauma-aware segment focused on how trauma impacts memory. If you've ever struggled with gaps in your memory, confusion about what really happened, or frustration in your healing process, this conversation is for you. We talk about how your brain is designed to protect you, why there is grace in what you can and cannot remember, and how healing doesn't look the same for everyone. Whether you're navigating faith, healing, or both—you are not alone. You are deeply valued, and your story matters. If you or someone you know needs support, you can call the Whispers of Hope line at 1-877-363-8924 to be connected with resources.
You are not crazy. You are not broken. You survived. ♡In today's episode of Whispers of Hope Invitation to Wisdom, we talk about something that doesn't get said enough:It's ok that you're hypervigilant. Freezing doesn't make you stupid.Fawning doesn't make you weak.Running doesn't make you unhealed. Fighting doesn't make you hopeless. These responses kept you alive. There is no shame in survival. In our trauma-informed segment, we unpack how your body learned to protect you-and how healing doesn't mean pretending those responses never existed. It means gently teaching your nervous system that it's safe now. And in the second half, we lean into wisdom. Scripture tells us that if we ask for wisdom, the Lord gives it generously. He is not irritated by your questions. He is not withholding clarity. He invites you to come close and ask. This episode is an invitation: lay down shame. Receive wisdom. Believe that healing and faith can grow together. If this resonates with you, or a woman you love, share this episode and let her know-there is hope, and she is not alone. ♥
Cohost Abby Bailey encourages listeners that we all have the opportunity to hear from God. Abby references 1 Kings 19 when God appears to the prophet Elijah in a whisper. This passage happens to be our namesake. People often look for God to speak with booms of thunder and bounds of power. While he can and he has communicated that way at times, more often, he is in the quiet whisper. Will you listen for the whisper?
