EPISODE SUMMARY

It’s our 30th episode—and you know what that means… it’s Q&A time! Every 10 episodes, Josie and Symone turn the mics on themselves to answer your questions—from the silly to the spiritual. This episode is full of laughs, powerful God moments, personal stories, Bible reflections, and real talk about fear, obedience, identity, and joy.

You’ll hear everything from their biggest regrets and favorite childhood toys, to what it means to follow Holy Spirit promptings and pray the promises, not the problems. Josie shares the story of becoming a state press secretary by surrendering her dreams to God, while Symone talks about a powerful “no” to LA that became a “yes” to something better. They also dive into Bible stories they’d love to witness, what makes a great husband, and the importance of not letting fear dictate your steps. This is the most fun + faith-filled Q&A yet—and it’s proof that when you're Rooted in truth, the freedom and prosperity will follow.
