14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good[a] is that? 17 So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.18 But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. 19 You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe—and shudder! 20 Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by his works; 23 and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a friend of God. 24 You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. 25 And in the same way was not also Rahab the prostitute justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way? 26 For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead. -James 2:14-26 ESV

What happens when a stay-at-home mom in Indiana gets so fired up about injustice that she starts a movement that changes America? Shannon Watts, founder of Mom's Demand Action and author of the instant New York Times bestseller "Fired Up," knows exactly what it feels like to go from folding laundry to fighting the most powerful lobby in the country. Her story isn't just about gun safety—it's about every woman who's ever been told she's not the right person to create change. How do you know when it's time to stop letting someone else handle it and start taking action yourself?Shannon's journey from corporate communications executive to one of America's most powerful activists didn't happen overnight, and it sure as hell wasn't easy. In this raw, honest conversation, she breaks down exactly what it means to live "on fire"—and why the blowback you'll face for stepping into your power is not only predictable but completely worth it. We're diving deep into the messy middle of creating change, the double bind of "fucksgiving" that women navigate, and how to sustain yourself when fighting for what matters feels impossible.What You'll Learn in This Episode:• The bias towards action vs. letting someone else do it - and how to recognize when it's your turn to step up • Why blowback is predictable and none of it is personal - plus practical strategies for handling criticism when you're creating change • The "fire formula" for identifying your abilities, values, and desires to live authentically • How to distinguish between "false fires" (purpose, happiness, busyness) and what actually fulfills you • Why taking no pay for 11 years was Shannon's biggest mistake - and the martyrdom trap that keeps women small • The double bind of "fucksgiving" - being expected to give all the fucks about everything while giving zero fucks about criticism • How to build sustainable activism that doesn't burn you out (hint: it's about winning and finding your people) • The bridge-building strategies for having political conversations across divides without compromising your valuesShannon's story proves that you don't need permission, credentials, or the "right" background to create massive change. But here's what hit me hardest: her revelation that women's biggest fear isn't failure—it's that pursuing what they want will make them bad mothers. What would change in your life if you stopped believing that taking up space meant taking something away from others? Ready to discover what's limiting you and what's calling you?

“You can't burn what is already on fire.”Meggan Watterson, a feminist theologian with master's degrees from Harvard Divinity School and Columbia University's Union Theological Seminary, is a bestselling author and founder of the REDLADIES, a spiritual community focused on studying ancient Christian texts that were excluded from the New Testament. Her new book, The Girl Who Baptized Herself, explores a nearly lost first-century scripture about Saint Thecla, a young woman who survived multiple execution attempts and became a reigious teacher, using her story as a roadmap for readers to understand their spiritual worth and reclaim their power. In our conversation, Meggan and I explore how religious institutions have systematically excluded women from spiritual narratives for millennia, how connecting with the feminine divine helped her reclaim her sense of self-worth following sexual assault, and how embracing women's righteous anger can inspire us all to take action in protecting ourselves and others. Meggan invites us to align with our divine purpose, embrace vulnerability as strength, and honor our unique spiritual callings.To read more about inspiring stories about Firestarters like Meggan, grab a copy of my new book Fired Up: How to Turn Your Spark Into a Flame and Come Alive at Any Age at firedupbook.com.Join me on my book tour!

As founder of Moms Demand Action — the nation's largest grassroots movement against gun violence — author Shannon Watts has helped thousands of women find their voice and take action. In her new book, Fired Up, Watts outlines a practical and inspiring framework for reigniting purpose, confidence, and ambition. With real-life stories from women across generations and backgrounds, Fired Up offers tools to help readers identify what sparks them and live with greater intention and impact. Watts seeks to challenge the negative narrative that many women hold, asserting that empowerment begins where expectations end. In a world that often pressures women to shrink themselves, choosing to embrace desire and step outside prescribed roles becomes a powerful, even radical, act. Shannon Watts is the founder of Moms Demand Action, the nation's largest grassroots group fighting against gun violence. Known as the ‘summoner of women's audacity,' she spent more than a decade leading one of the world's largest field experiments for mobilizing women. She has been named one of TIME's 100 Most Influential People, a Forbes 50 over 50 Changemaker, and a Glamour Woman of the Year. She is an active board member of Emerge America, one of the nation's leading organizations for recruiting and training women to run for office. She is the author of the 2019 book Fight Like a Mother, and she writes regularly for Substack and outlets like The Washington Post, Elle, TIME, and more. Brooke Baldwin is a TV host, award-winning journalist and bestselling author. She writes a weekly Substack entitled “Unraveling, with Brooke Baldwin.” It's inspired by her bombshell first person essay published in Vanity Fair entitled: “Leaving CNN Was How I Found My Voice.” For more than a decade, Brooke anchored her own live daily news show on CNN and was renowned for her versatility, authenticity, and humanity at the news desk. After CNN, Brooke hosted a popular social experiment show on Netflix called The Trust. Brooke is the author of the bestselling book Huddle: How Women Unlock Their Collective Power, redefining the word ‘huddle' to explore how women lean on one another to provide support, empowerment, inspiration, and the strength to enact meaningful change. Brooke now lives in Los Angeles after a ten-year run-in New York City. She is a proud graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Summer at Bay Chapel | July 13, 2025Pastor Bria BradshawJohn 11:17–27 ESV Now when Jesus came, he found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb four days. Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles off, and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them concerning their brother. So when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary remained seated in the house.Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died. But even now I know that whatever you ask from God, God will give you.” Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.” Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.” Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?” She said to him, “Yes, Lord; I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming into the world.” ✓ Yesterday's DisappointmentsJohn 11:21 “Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”John 11:32 Now when Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” ✓ Tomorrow's DistanceJohn 11:23-24 Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.” Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.” Key Thought: Jesus doesn't just want us saved, He wants us ALIVE!COME ALIVE 1.

It doesn't actually give you any meaningful information, so you can ignore it. You can just say it's broken.

Tired of living on autopilot while your dreams sit on the back burner? Shannon Watts knows that restlessness. Before founding Moms Demand Action and earning accolades including Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential, Shannon was an overwhelmed mom who broke down in a doctor's office, covered in stress-induced eczema from living a life that no longer worked. In her new book "Fired Up," Shannon shares her transformation from breakdown to fired-up founder of a grassroots movement against gun violence and champion of "summoning the audacity of women." You'll discover how to identify what's truly calling you, push through the fear of being "too late," and give yourself permission to live audaciously at any age.

This week I am re-playing my interview with advocate, Substacker, and "summoner of women's audacity," Shannon Watts in honor of the fact that her new book “Fired Up: How to Turn Your Spark into a Flame and Come Alive at Any Age” released just last week. Shannon first entered that national conversation when she founded Moms Demand Action, the grassroots movement for common sense gun reform that began with a Facebook post the day of the Sandy Hook school shooting and has grown to include more than 10 million members. Shannon writes regularly for her Substack, Playing with Fire, and outlets like The Washington Post, Elle, Time, and more. She has also been named Glamour's Woman of the Year and one of Time's 100 Most Influential People.Since leaving Moms Demand Action, Shannon has been on a quest to motivate more women to use their voices to advocate for change, whether that's within their own families, workplaces, communities, states, the country, or the world. It was an honor to talk with her and we really broke it down, covering: - Knowing when it's time to transition out of what you've been doing- ADHD and how its effects have changed as she's gotten older- Switching gears from being a very public person who had to keep her private life private (to not feed the trolls) to a private person who talks about private things (menopause, ADHD) publicly- The incredible origin story of Moms Demand Action (or what I call, "the Facebook post heard 'round the world)- Her standing desk fail Thank you for listening!

Shannon Watts thought she had it all figured out - marriage, three kids, and a steady job. But by her mid-thirties, she realized she was living someone else's life. After leaving an unfulfilling marriage and career, she spent years asking herself one crucial question: "What do I want?" That led her to found Moms Demand Action at age 41 after a mass school shooting - despite being an introvert with ADHD and a fear of public speaking. In this episode, Kelly reads a letter Shannon wrote to her younger self, where she shares her "fire formula" for transformation, why pursuing your desires is a radical act for women and how living authentically became her greatest legacy.

If you're ready to empower yourself to step into your true purpose but are paralyzed by fear, what-ifs, and imposter syndrome, you've found the right conversation. Today's guest is Shannon Watts, the founder of Moms Demand Action, the nation's largest grassroots group fighting gun violence in the U.S. Like many of us, Shannon was left outraged and broken after hearing news stories about school shootings and seeing the impact of gun violence on communities across the countries. One night, her sadness transformed to rage, and her life was changed after a Facebook post kicked off what would become Moms Demand Action, a movement of Americans fighting for public safety measures that can protect people from gun violence. They work to pass stronger gun laws and work to close the loopholes that jeopardize the safety of families and communities. They know that gun violence is preventable, and they are committed to doing what it takes to keep families safe. Shannon has been named one of TIME's 100 Most Influential People, a Forbes 50 over 50 Changemaker, and a Glamour Woman of the Year. She's also someone who went through an extraordinary transformation, and this is the focus of her and Dr. Alexandra's conversation, and of her new book, Fired Up: How to Turn Your Spark into a Flame and Come Alive at Any Age. Shannon empowers folks to break free from limits, trust their instincts, and lead with passion to create meaningful change. Shannon and Dr. Alexandra talk about activism and the way it impacts relationships, particularly marriage, and Shannon shares how her own marriage evolved as she went through this incredible unfolding. Relevant Links"Your Anxiety Toolkit" on MasterClass: www.masterclass.com/youranxietytoolkitFired Up How to Turn Your Spark into a Flame and Come Alive at Any Age by Shannon WattsOrder Dr. Alexandra's book, Love Every DaySubscribe to Dr. Alexandra's NewsletterSubmit a Listener Question

In this last episode of May for Mental Health Awareness Month, join me as I fly solo to get real + raw as to why I needed an 8 month break, and the power of taking a pause! For me it was the podcast + business, but the lessons gleaned here are for you if you are experiencing daily overwhelm + burnout, or that feeling that you are at your wits end! We are all so exhausted right now, and in my time away, I learned 6 lessons in recovery that touch on:Intention vs Isolation and when to be in the world versus needing alone timeHow relationships mirror your traumas + triggers Why the RIGHT support (feeling seen, heard, understood) is EVERYTHING Trusting your inner voice + the Splenic voice in Human DesignHow to master your Soul's DNA + evolve in this lifetime with this wisdomSomatic experiencing + how to find your GOLF!
