Pre-marital sex. Abuse. Divorce. Depression. A woman who desperately loved God and also felt insanely distant from Him, making decisions that compromised her heart, her mind, her heart. Can you relate? What about this: Do you ever find yourself intimidated by the accolades and attributes of the women in the Bible? I mean, you admire their strength and vigilance and purity, but you also feel as though they are a bit hard to relate to? Today on the Graceful Gladiator podcast, meet your girl Autumn Miles. She shares her honest, unfiltered story where she relates deeply to the harlot Rahab in the Bible. And while you may know of Rahab as a woman involved in a scandalous life and behaviors, today we shed light on the beauty and majesty and honor of Rahab... Ultimately the character traits that when combined with the grace of God led her straight into the lineage of Jesus.

Dear Graceful Gladiator, The lie in your head is that your talent, skills and abilities aren’t sufficient for the task. You feel inadequate, while failing to realize that weakness and deficiency is actually a spiritual prerequisite to greatness in the Kingdom of God. Your degree of talent is irrelevant; what matters is your heart of service, your curiosity, your willingness to start from scratch and be a student. Did this message speak to you today?

Have you ever felt like you and your husband are literally speaking two different languages? I think we have all had a moment where we experience defeat because we want so desperately to have a relationship that is full of love and understanding, but what we see manifesting is chaos and frustration!! As a Graceful Gladiator- sometimes we get overly passionate in our communication or we can easily retreat and protect ourselves when we don’t feel understood. Maybe your husband has stone walled you and you both have left the conversation feeling less connected than before. Today we are all in for a treat because communication expert Ellie Parvin is here to mediate and to give us the strategies we need for powerful communication in our marriages and relationships. Ellie Parvin is a Communication Expert, University Professor, and creator of the Speak Live Online communication course. She is passionate about understanding the way people communicate and how various factors and environments can alter the perception of information/message/meaning delivered and received between those communicating. I should note that Ellie's Thesis was focused on gender communication where her research uncovered some interesting facts about non-verbal and verbal messaging between the sexes. And that is where we are diving in deep today. So Graceful Gladiators, join us in the arena, take off your armor, and prepared to be sharpened by Ellie's training today.

This episode is for you if: You feel as though your prayers are being hindered You aren't seeing breakthrough You feel defeat You feel stuck You lack energy, confidence, or fervor in your prayer life This episode is so, so special to my heart because it is one of my absolute favorite topics in the world: spiritual warfare. I grew up as a Christian but it wasn't until I was in my mid-to-late twenties that I began to truly learn about spiritual warfare and personally engage in the battle.

Do you ever struggle with feeling as though your power is diluted? Do you say "YES" so often that you lose sight of your purpose? As Graceful Gladiators, we are high achieving, big dreaming, far-fetching thinking, passionate women who want to live big lives for God..... and we will! Once we are able to plant our feet firmly in the truth of who God says we are, and when we honor the calling He has placed on our lives. In this episode, you will find out what our air conditioning repairman and Acts 6 have to do with one another!!! Battle Plan Overview: Part 1: Pull out your month view calendar and write in all of your commitments. Then, take out a fresh sheet of paper and write down your priorities, starting with THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS. Place the two next to one another. Does your schedule reflect your priorities? Or are you diluted? Part 2: Prayerfully consider your commitments and seek God's direction over how you will continue to commit yourself this month. Delegate and empower when possible. Let God fill the gaps. Connect with Hannah on Facebook and Instagram! #GracefulGladiator to share your story and update son your Battle Plan. Shop the Graceful Gladiator tees!
The Weapon You Must Be Aware Of: Is this weapon being used against you in your battle and arena of life? Maybe your battle is called depression. Maybe your battle is called parenthood. Maybe your battle is called work. Maybe your battle is called fibromyalgia. Maybe your battle is called infertility. Maybe your battle is called divorce. Or, maybe your battle is called August. Today we are going to train on the main tactic and weapon that the enemy is using against you to keep you from living the abundant, bold, passionate life of a Graceful Gladiator. It's time to be strengthened, to arise, and to claim the victory you were destined for as a Daughter of the King! Connect with Hannah on Facebook and Instagram.

Your pursuit of happiness will commence the moment you decide to invest your emotions in authentic expression rather than specific outcomes. Why? "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." Isaiah 55:8-9 Let this podcast episode be your permission slip to pursue your unique happiness- to find joy in the small things, to pursue seemingly insignificant pleasures this week. And when you do, know that our God loves the mustard seed. He loves tiny gifts. He will speak to you in the stillest of voices that you can hear so clearly once you clear out the noise and the feedback of others, and instead, relentlessly and recklessly pursue His unique purpose for you life. And that, Graceful Gladiator is the ultimate Pursuit of Happiness. Battle Plan: Enroll now: Amplify Your Purpose is now open for a limited time!

Keenya and I are a part of a business mastermind group and both share a love of the Lord, so it was natural that we would connect and to have her on the podcast. But what I DIDN’T EXPECT was all of the things that God would bring up in our conversation together. We’re talking divorce, dreams, tongues, spiritual warfare, stepping out in faith, depression, healing, and forgiveness. Graceful Gladiator, I KNOW this message is for YOU today. There are no coincidences, only God sequences, so if you stumbled upon this podcast then I encourage you to block these 50 minutes off your schedule today, even if it’s while you’re driving, cooking, cleaning, or something else, and LISTEN with your Spirit to see what God has for you in this message.

Graceful Gladiator, have you ever felt that your migration, or transition is being wasted? Do you feel stuck in the middle season of something? This podcast is for you.

Hannah Place is a speaker, podcaster and Founder of Graceful Gladiator, a movement to empower women to embrace the feminine and warrior natures we all inside so we can make our highest contribution to ourselves, our families and the world. Testimony (2:24) Hannah is a pastor's kid and talks about how she had an incredible childhood with parents who created a safe home. Her testimony begins during high school when she wanted to be a wife and a mom. Hannah talks about although she saw red flags in a relationship, she entered into that marriage with her eyes half open. Everything that she prayed for and hoped for came to a screeching halt. After two years into it she ended up divorced and went through a season of thinking she let the Lord down but realized that the Lord allowed her to go through that season so that she could be yielded to him. Gladiator Friendships (8:15) Hannah talks about how good friendships are similar to how Gladiator's train. They train with other gladiators who are willing to hurt them but not kill them. She feels friendship is the same thing. That women should be surrounded by other women who are willing to hurt them so that when they're up against the real enemy they're trained and ready. A Heart For Battle (14:00) Every woman has a battle to fight and often we pray for him to keep us safe. Hannah feels that we have territory to claim just like the Israelites but we were made to step up to the plate and fight it with the Lord. Warrior Spirit (17:30) Hannah's heart is for women to claim their warrior spirit. That God calls us to fierce warriors but we also have a feminine, soft side that is a picture of his grace. Beauty In Submission (19:32) Hannah and I chat about Biblical submission and marriage. Working With Your Spouse In Marriage (27:00) Hannah and her husband work together and they absolutely love it. She shares tips on how to make it work when a husband and wife work in business together. The biggest thing is looking as your spouse as an ally and more!

This is for the Graceful Gladiator who has been trying with all her heart, soul, and mind to stay strong but the waiting is starting to feel unbearable. Find out what God has for us in our season of waiting and the promise He has for us!
As a woman, we have two parts to our soul: GRACE AND GLADIATOR. Most of us have learned to cling to one nature and disassociate with the other: we are either meek and gentle, or independent and strong. However, God's design for us is different, He created both natures with a purpose. When the two are combined they create the most powerful singular nature that we call being a woman. It is time for us to embrace both; to lean into the soft, feminine gracefulness while also empowering the capable and valiant gladiator inside of us. For each of us this is a different journey. We will either have to fight the battle to become vulnerable, or, learn to believe in our capabilities and strengths; begin to break down walls of protection and be seen, or shake off the dust and stand up for who we are. When we find the balance between both of these natures, embrace and invite them back together into the arena of life, that is when we will finally make our highest contribution to ourselves, our families, and the world. And that, Graceful Gladiator, is what we were created for. Subscribe now and Join the Movement! www.GracefulGladiator.com
