On this episode of WWL, we break from our usual format of one-on-one conversation and join a panel with other podcast hosts listening to Jess Connolly. Jess hosted a panel discussing body shame and her new book. I pray her words are powerful in your life and her message is an encouragement to your soul.


A little bit about the guest:


Jess Connolly is a woman who wants to leave her generation more in awe of God than she found it. She is passionate about family, God’s Word, and seeing women take their place in the kingdom. She’s an author, church leader, and a coach.


She’s written nine books - including Wild and Free with Hayley Morgan, You Are The Girl For The Job, and Breaking Free from Body Shame.


Jess and her husband, Nick, live in Charleston, SC where they’ve planted Bright City Church. They have four wild and hilarious kids: Elias, Gloriana, Benjamin, and Cannon. They also have an unruly dog named Deacon.
