I'm so happy to be here with you…the day before Don't Let That Hold You Back officially releases to the world! I can't wait for you to get it in your hands, so we can all start talking about how and why you've been held back and what we're going to do about it.

So, this is your invitation to pull up a chair and join us at the table. Jess has a book coming out in October called You Can't Be Brave Until You're Scared so she basically fear coached me about book launch week for half of this episode. We realized as we recorded that we both are releasing our 7th trade books this year, which is wild, so we both did a little coaching for each other and I'm just so grateful for Jess' friendship to all of us.

In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, Jess Connolly—author, podcaster, and speaker—invites us into a season of her life marked by heartbreak and uncertainty. Jess opens up about the winter of 2023, when her husband experienced panic attacks, heart issues, and a mental health crisis. At the same time, her family was facing major loss as her stepfather passed away after heart surgery, while also preparing for a book release. Followed by one of her children walking through a dark trial.

A “sister duo” joins this episode, as Katie Walters co-hosts with Joey Svendsen to talk to Katie's sister, Pastor Jess Connolly. Katie and Jess share about the special bond they have and how Katie, who was once a domineering big sister when they were kids, now has a "mamma bear" defensiveness toward anyone who talks negatively about Jess on social media. Birthed out of a very painful season for their family, Jess just released her newest book, What Comes Next: 40 Days of Healing After Heartbreak, Burnout, or Brokenness. As Joey discovers the book's content and learns about Jess's motivation for writing it, the three discuss contentment and how ones finds it. They also reflect on the idea of "surviving versus thriving," the meaning of Jess saying "everything happens for me to form me,” and "kingdom rewards" that come from pain. Pastor Jess also shares why she refuses to sing certain worship songs that churches often include in their worship services. At the top of the episode, Joey tries shares with his two co-hosting friends an experience in which a woman tried to witness to him, Lynne and Ciarrah not too impressed with how this lady went about it.

“Living awake” sounds great when it comes to the beautiful stuff, but it's much harder to live fully awake when the losses and disappointments and heartbreaks won't stop coming. If that sounds like your life, then you need to hear every minute of this conversation with my friend Jess Connolly—pastor, writer, and parent. We talked about how to begin the healing process, recovering from church hurt, parenting teenagers with trust, and finding your place in the kingdom of God. I left refreshed and you will too.Show NotesWhat we mentioned:Episode 85: Sex, Conflict, and Covenant with Nick Connolly - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-85-sex-conflict-and-covenant-with-nick-connolly/id1437912225?i=1000712379382All My Knotted Up Life: A Memoir by Beth Moore - https://a.co/d/5ignBRQThe GoodHard Podcast Episode 105: Beth Moore on Walking with God - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-105-beth-moore-on-walking-with-god/id1496882479?i=1000724538891The Fully Awake Women's Club - https://jessconnolly.substack.com/Jess on Instagram - @jessaconnollyJess's website -https://www.jessconnolly.com/Scriptures we referenced:Psalm 40Romans 5:3For more messages of hope, free resources, and opportunities to connect with me: https://hopeheals.com/Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hopeheals/Subscribe to The GoodHard Story Podcast!Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/good-hard-story-podcast/id1496882479Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/0OYz6G9Q2tNNVOX9YSdmFb?si=043bd6b10a664bebWant a little hope in your inbox?

Show Summary: It can be easy to struggle with body image, feeling like we're not enough, or feeling exhausted by our day-to-day life. Jess Connolly wants to recharge you and share how to shake off the shame! Join hosts Elisa Morgan and Eryn Eddy Adkins as they learn how to break free from shame during this God Hears Her conversation. Notes and Quotes: “I had this really strong understanding early on that the Gospel is the best thing about me. That people that had tidier lives still needed God, that the messy parts of my life did not disqualify me from His love, from ministry, from calling, from any of those things.” —Jess Connolly “I'm thankful for the victory and the vision that pain afforded me.” —Jess Connolly “If John says, ‘if the Son has set you free, you are free indeed,' how much of that do I get to experience here on earth? How much of that do I get to experience as it pertains to my body?” —Jess Connolly “If You created our bodies as good, do we spend the rest of our lives trying to make them good, or can we spend the rest of our lives agreeing that they're good? If so, what would that look like? What would it look like to stop trying to make my body good and instead just come into alignment with the truth that it already is? That's what breaking body shame is about for me.” —Jess Connolly “For many of us, we don't know where we end and where He begins. We don't know what we're responsible for and what He's responsible for. We've somehow bought this lie that we graduate from needing Him—but I don't want to get over that. I still want to be a girl that acknowledges that I need God.” —Jess Connolly Verses: 2 Corinthians 12:9 John 20:11-18 – Jesus appears to Mary Magdalene Luke 8:2 – Jesus healing Mary Magdalene Related Episodes: GHH Ep 146 – Reading Truth with Amanda Williams: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/reading-truth/ Links: Jess Connolly's Website: https://www.jessconnolly.com/ God Hears Her website: https://go.odb.org/ghh191 Subscribe to the God Hears Her YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@GodHearsHerODBM Share Your Story: https://godhearsher.org/share-your-story/

If you've ever felt the tension of having more than one lane to run in—or wondered how to keep it all connected—this conversation is your roadmap. Jess shares how identifying and staying passionate about her “who” has given her the focus, freedom, and stamina to build a body of work that leaves her generation more in awe of God than she found it.

Words matter—and numbers can be deeply triggering, especially when it comes to how we see our bodies. Jess Connolly joins Sadie for a vulnerable, honest, and empowering conversation about body image, shame, regret, and the lies we believe about ourselves. Together, they explore how we can break these toxic patterns and walk in freedom. Jess opens up about how her body insecurities began early in life and actually intensified after she became a believer. Sadie shares her own story of disordered eating and how seemingly small, careless words fueled a painful downward spiral. Sadie and Jess talk about the confusion when they both became smaller after disordered eating — but were then praised for it.

In this delightful end to season four (season four! huzzah!), I am joined by my friend Jess Connolly to talk about friendship, legacy, heartbreak, joy, and just for a plot twist, Jess's current obsession with an obscure but very useful Amazon product. I'm saying we hit it all, and I loved it all. This ep is the perfect way to cap off a season, so lean in and listen to my life-drenched conversation with author, coach, podcaster, exceptional speaker, and dear friend, Jess Connolly.Jess Connolly is an unlikely leader who is obsessed with helping other women. Her story might surprise you, but here's the gist: God has taken her from defeat, despair, and overwhelmed exhaustion to abundant life. She barely graduated high school, and now she writes books.

The first time I looked in a mirror after my stroke, I didn't know who was staring back at me. My face was unrecognizable, and my body might as well have been a stranger's. It took me years to accept the reality of my new appearance. Feeling anything close to "positivity" was not in the realm of possibility.We're living in the era of body positivity and I am HERE for it! But as a woman living with disabilities, I can't always muster up positive feelings about a body that doesn't function well much of the time. This reality could set me up for some major body negativity, but I've found another option.Today we're talking all about body neutrality—what it means, how I got here, and why I'm convinced it's the healthiest relationship I can have to my body. In this unguarded episode, my teammate Leah and I get vulnerable about our physical insecurities, the cultural beauty standards we have (and haven't) internalized, our experiences with weight loss, and the weirdness of postpartum body changes.If body positivity feels out of your reach, you need to hit play on this episode in your favorite podcast app.Show Notes:Suffer Strong - https://a.co/d/8DKyzM7Jess Connolly - https://www.instagram.com/jessaconnolly/Breaking Free from Body Shame by Jess Connolly - https://a.co/d/fAj7sL8Episode 85: My New Way of Understand Beauty with Brook HensleyMy Body Neutrality writing that appeared on Live Original: https://liveoriginal.com/author/katherine-wolf/Scriptures referenced in this episode:2 Corinthians 4:162 Chronicles 20:12 (Katherine did not make it up!)***There's so much more to the story.For more messages of hope, free resources, and opportunities to connect with me, visit https://hopeheals.com/katherine.Follow me in Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hopeheals/Subscribe to The GoodHard Story Podcast!Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/good-hard-story-podcast/id1496882479Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/0OYz6G9Q2tNNVOX9YSdmFb?si=043bd6b10a664bebWant a little hope in your inbox?

How do we experience true rest in a culture that demands striving and encourages fatigue? What does it even look like to live from a place of rest instead of burnout and exhaustion like most people around us do? For author, pastor, speaker, and mom of four, Jess Connolly, these were the questions she had to wrestle with in the face of all the demands coming at her from her various roles. When life hit a fever pitch and she seemed to reach a breaking point in every way, she knew that she needed more than some sort of watered down self-care answer. She needed to find a way to truly live from a place of trust in the goodness of God to provide and carry her through the noise and speed of life around her. It was through her own journey of figuring out how to deal with the soul-deep exhaustion that she decided to take others along in her latest book, Tired of Being Tired: Receive God's Realistic Rest for Your Soul-Deep Exhaustion. In this episode, Aubrey and Jess talk about how difficult it is to find rest in our modern culture, the different ways fatigue can show up, and how to lead in our pain and grief. If you are tired of being tired--mentally, physically and spiritually--this conversation will show you that you don't need the world's false versions of rest, but you need an encounter with the one who offers you true rest in the depths of your being.

Jess and I want to share some laughs with you and also fill you up.

Jess's life is full with being an author, Bible teacher, podcaster, and coach so she knows the challenges of finding pockets of rest in a full schedule.

Welcome back! We are in a mini-series of two episodes. These are my favorite shows where I get to bring you the best of the best around a certain topic. Today, we're talking about boundaries and rest, and I'm bringing you some amazing people with so much wisdom to share. We're diving into boundaries, sabbath rest, social pressure on women, practical strategies for incorporating rest, and more. You see why this type of episode is my favorite! I'm just bringing you the best of the best this week and next week in this mini-series. If you want to establish boundaries and create space for rest, but you're just not sure how to do that, this podcast will be a game-changer for you. Join us as we learn about: The dangerous effects of busyness, why it's so important to slow down, and Sabbath rest with John Mark Comer How we can reframe work and rest in Christian culture with Terra Mattson What women get wrong about boundaries with Dr. Sasha Shillcutt Practical strategies for incorporating rest with Jess Connolly Favorite quotes: 1:48 - John Mark Comer - “There are two different types of busyness. There is the healthy kind of busyness that just says you have a lot to do and that you are not wasting your life on Netflix and Facebook, but you are doing something meaningful with your life. I am 100% for that kind of busyness, and by that definition, Jesus was very busy.” 3:44 - John Mark Comer - “Love, joy, and peace are incompatible with hurry.” 8:12 - John Mark Comer - “Some kind of a daily touch point of quiet with God where you come to rest is so important. Start where you are at not where you feel like you should be.” 11:39 - Terra Mattson - “Rest can look lots of different ways.” 15:03 - Sasha Shillcutt - “Boundaries are more about keeping the good in than they are about keeping the bad out.” 26:46 - Jess Connolly - “Start with the small stuff, and it gives you the bravery for the big stuff.” 31:04 - Jess Connolly - “I can extend my boundaries and borders to love and to take care of other people, but I have to have boundaries to extend first. I have to have a sense of self and wholeness with God with me before I can be generous with other people.” Links to great things we discussed: John Mark Comer Website John Mark Comer Instagram Terra Mattson Website Terra Mattson Instagram Sasha Shillcutt Website Sasha Shillcut Instagram Jess Connolly Website Jess Connolly Instagram Build a Coaching Business Quick Start Challenge Create a Course Alli on YouTube Remaining You While Raising Them Alli Worthington.

As Sadie puts it, Jess Connolly is your new "best friend" who is here to encourage us ALL that being a woman in 2024 is exhausting. It is! And it's easy to start wearing the "I'm tired" badge with pride — even, like Jess, thinking we're more godly because of it! — when it's probably the last thing we should be doing. Jess talks about finding herself at her publisher's office pitching a book about being tired when she was as close to complete burnout and a breakdown as she'd ever been. But through doing a deep dive on what "tired" really means — and what God meant when He said, "Come to Me all who are weary" — she discovered a wealth of knowledge about how we navigate exhaustion and WHY we're all so tired (it's not always because we need sleep!).
