I chat to the phenomenal Olga Thompson, otherwise known as the Big Fat Greek Mother. Currently taking Instagram by storm with her comedy, kindness and compassionate social media presence, Olga shares some of her beautiful journey with me. We unpack her creative journey and her desire to boldly and unapologetically use her experiences, her talents and gifts to glorify God in spheres of society that the church may find controversial. We talk about resisting people-pleasing and obeying God with our callings even when it’s seems unconventional!
Olga keeps it real as she shares her experiences of dealing with postnatal depression, confusion and deep pain where she found God addressing her childhood brokenness and hidden wounds. Incredibly it was here that she began to experience God’s prompting to explore her creativity, not waiting for a future season but starting exactly where she was, as a mother of three, and going for it, with what was in her hand. Exciting and inspiring stuff!
She unpacks some of her journey, her convictions and her heart's desires and we also get to hear some of the stories, struggles and creative processes behind her comedy and fabulous online characters!

Lu Hardy and Ellie Barrett join me for a super fun chat about our experiences of seeing God radiate His love and light so beautifully and compassionately in some of society's darkest places. We chat about our own life experiences of being part of the partying lifestyle and the personal convictions that drive each of us to share the love of God in the nightlife scene.
We chat about our work with Club Angels, as we reach out with the love and compassion of God in the nightclub scene. Lu and Ellie share how Club Angels got started and what a typical night looks like! We talk about some of the struggles associated with ministering to people caught up in hedonistic lifestyles and how we have had our minds renewed and belief systems challenged by God as we confront our own misconceptions. We share some of our fave testimonies from our nights in the clubs and marvel at all that God is doing!
We we also hear about the incredible way that God is invading the Strip clubs with His love, kindness and mercy and the wonderful work of Illuminate Soho.

In this Episode I chat to the wonderful Shay Douglas featured in Netflix Documentary Liberated, who candidly and passionately shares his journey away from counterfeit intimacy towards true intimacy.
Shay Douglas was born in Cairns, Australia and spent many years in the US on a Soccer scholarship. Whilst partying at Spring Break, Florida with friends, he found himself getting involved in a documentary project which was being filmed by Exodus Cry. The documentary explored the hook-up culture amongst young adults in our generation and common attitudes and behaviours about sex.
After the filming finished, what followed for Shay was a journey of emptiness, regret, soul searching and reflection before he found himself making some powerful decisions that would lead him towards radical forgiveness, restoration and freedom. A journey that he is still on.
Shay reflects on his childhood and upbringing, and shares his evolving belief systems and perspectives about sexuality and intimacy. He tenderly yet honestly speaks of the demons he has had to face and the struggles that he has experienced around identity, intimacy and his role in today's hook up culture.
Shay also shares with us his current projects and future dreams to help young men develop healthy and honouring belief systems about manhood, respect, intimacy and valuing human dignity.

This is part two of my fabulous chat with the amazing Manny and Ayo-Dele Edwards! We delve deeper into what it means to be a Christian creative who loves well and how our traditional cultures often impact our art. We also chat about the churches role in the arts and entertainment industry and how there is a desperate need for Christians to rise up and be who they have been called to be without fearing what people will think.
We also unpack the beauty of trusting God with our callings, characters and the seasons of our lives. In this second episode Manny and Ayo-Dele continue to inspire and delight with their experiences, wisdom and honesty about being bold and unapologetic to be who you've been created to be!
