Episode 37: Your Body Is Ready for Summer
Jess’s newest book, Tired of Being Tired, just came out on April 9th, but since Summer is upon us, we thought this would be a good time to bring out Jess’s last book, Breaking Free from Body Shame.
If you find yourself thinking you have to jump on a new fitness challenge, change your diet, or find yourself wanting to avoid the community pool for the next few months, this episode is for you. In this episode, we brought in our friend and team member, Katie Smith, to share her story of body shame + healing. You’ll hear Jess and Katie share openly and honestly about their past experiences, what they learned, how the Lord was able to carry them through, and how this one thing remains true: YOUR BODY IS GOOD.
This is for the woman who has never felt free, for the new mom dealing with a body she doesn’t recognize, and/or the woman who thought she’d conquered this issue, but it’s still cropping up.
If you have a body and want to live free, this episode is for you.

Episode 36: What Your Single Friends Wish You Knew
This isn’t my podcast, it’s OUR podcast. So today we're hitting one of our most requested episode topics: singleness and marriage! Since Jess has been married for nearly 20 years, we brought in our friend and team member, Liz Cox, to share her experience as a single gal.
You’ll hear Jess and Liz share their life experiences and how they’ve learned to understand each other better, learn from one another, and be on one another’s team despite being in different seasons of life. They’re answering the question, “What do you wish your married friends/single friends knew?” and their answers might surprise you. If you’re single, this episode is for you. If you’re married, this episode is for you.
We encourage you to send this episode to a friend because we know there are amazing takeaways that could spark helpful conversations between you and your friends!

Episode 35: We Didn't See This Coming
In this episode, Nick Connolly, husband, father, pastor, and author, interviews Jess Connolly about her newest book, ‘Tired of Being Tired.’ You’ll hear raw and honest conversations about how this current season has been for Jess, as she experienced deep grief from an unexpected family loss while also experiencing great joy in seeing this book being launched into the world.
There is no better time for this book to come out, as 'Tired of Being Tired' is all about finding rest. When rhythms fail, the principles of spiritual, physical, mental, and emotional rest hold us up. The biblical truths Jess found while writing this book carried her through when she couldn’t get enough sleep or follow all the practical tips.
This is not just my podcast, it’s our podcast and we pray this episode is a blessing to you!

Episode 34: Community + Rest
If you like the idea of rest, if you're tired of being tired, if you're ready to stop living exhausted, this episode is for you. But what in the world do you do about your community? What do you do about your spouse who has a different schedule than you? How do you handle rest if you’re an overwhelmed caregiver of small kids? These questions are ones that Jess gets asked all of the time. So, let’s talk about it!
This episode is all about community and rest and how we can have both, together. God has placed us where we are on purpose. And what if all of that was so compelling that it started a wave in our communities?
One woman willing to rest changes her life. A group of women resting changes the world. Let’s go.

Episode 32: Am I Doing Enough for God?
Everything in the world tells us we have to earn our place and go to extremes to be rewarded. We live in a culture that praises "the hustle", but that is the antithesis of the gospel.
Friend, you do not have to burn out and check off all the boxes or work to extreme limits to earn your place in the Kingdom.

Episode 20: New Goals, Fresh Grace, Same Us
We love the New Year and love goal setting, but we love the gospel and grace more. So we’ve got to let the Good News of Jesus be the banner over any new year and we can’t keep pretending that a self-help equation of striving will keep us from needing Jesus. It’s a new year, there’s fresh grace, and we can even set new goals - but let’s not pretend we need to be or can be completely different people to step into what God has for us in 2024.

It’s funny that we corporately get so excited about the holidays and at the same time, we corporately talk about how crazy we felt during them once they’re over. We post a million memes about Mariah Carey in October, and then we all post the same meme the week after Christmas about how confused we are. We join in on the narrative of joy and celebration, but we also join in on the preset narrative about how this season leaves us feeling.
If this resonates with you, this episode is for you. Join Jess on this episode as she shares 4 things to say no to during the holiday season and 4 things to say yes to.
Let’s not lose our minds this Christmas.

Will rest help when you feel like you’re in a debilitating or painful season? Do you already feel bad about how much you work or how full your life is? Does it sound exhausting to be told unrealistic ideas about fighting your own fatigue by someone who couldn’t possibly understand your life?

Make time to feel this week. Make time to commune with others this week. Make time to rest in the name of Jesus this week. Make time to testify, to go and tell. Because this is who you were made to be. Let’s go!

As we grow in practice of hearing from God, remember this - even if we hear from Him wrong, that’s okay. God will still love us and talk to us, even if we don’t take every step exactly right. There’s freedom in this truth.

Do you feel fear about your calling? | Episode 172
Welcome to the Go + Tell Gals Podcast! This season on the podcast, we want to answer the questions you’re already asking. In this week’s episode, we are diving into very human emotions: Do you feel fear about your calling? Jess and GATG team member, Emily, speak truth over these common feelings, provide different responses to fear and ways we can fight back.
The presence of fear, worry and anxiety does not negate your courage. It’s the beginning of stepping into all God has called you to. It means you’re human, you love people and God, and want to handle all this well. We see you and are walking with you.
Because instead of allowing fear to be a constant background noise in our lives, we need to pull the car over, turn the engine off, turn to the backseat and speak truth to it, so we can move past the fear in Jesus’ name.
He is mighty in you.

Phylicia Masonheimer: Every Woman A Theologian | Episode 171
Welcome to the Go + Tell Gals Podcast! This episode, we are chatting about an upcoming book to help equip women to speak more plainly about the Gospel: Everyone Woman a Theologian. Jess and special guest, Phylicia Masonheimer, break down theology before the book hits the shelves. Phylicia Masonheimer is multi-missional: the founder of the ministry Everyone Woman A Theologian, a traditional writer, podcast host, coffee brand guru, foster care sponsor and leader of the annual women’s theology conference, Verity.
Her new book Everyone Woman a Theologian helps make what she learned in college and seminary available for all women to equip them to be confident in talking about the Gospel to others in their communities.
We hope this episode encourages you in wanting to know God more intimately because if we truly love Him, we want to know what He says about things in the Bible - not just knowing His character. Preorder Phylicia’s new book and pick up a copy to dive into theology more for yourself!
He is mighty in you. Let’s get in the boat today, friends.
