This week, Jeanette sits down with licensed counselor, minister, and kingdom mentor Carrie Ann Barrett for a Spirit-filled conversation about healing, deliverance, and the divine design of womanhood. From breaking down Baptist barriers around female leadership to embracing her prophetic assignment, Carrie shares her powerful testimony of freedom, purpose, and resting in God's presence. If you've ever felt like you had to choose between being a mother or a leader, or if you've struggled with emotional baggage, burnout, or spiritual warfare, this episode will remind you that healing is possible—and it changes everything. You were made for wholeness, boldness, and walking in the authority of your divine identity! “Rest isn't passive—it's your secret weapon to healing and building with God.” “The blood of Jesus covered Eve too—women are not disqualified from leadership.” “You don't need to be the queen of the pride. Lionesses lead together.” In This Episode: ✅ How Carrie Ann transitioned from corporate to seminary and healing ministry ✅ Why healing and deliverance are still relevant (and needed!) in modern faith life ✅ The importance of godly boundaries and mentorship for women in leadership ✅ How unhealed trauma keeps women from stepping fully into their calling ✅ The divine balance of motherhood, ministry, and marketplace leadership ✅ Why we must restore true sisterhood and dismantle competition among women
