In this soul-stirring episode of Speak Up, Stand Out, and Change Lives, Whitney McDuff sits down with Sarah Soars—a former pastor whose radical transformation began the day she walked away from the pulpit and toward her own inner truth.

Sarah shares the deeply personal and courageous journey that led her to leave a career she loved, walk 175 miles on the Camino de Santiago, and ultimately build a life rooted in authenticity, spiritual freedom, and radical self-trust. This is not just a story of change—it’s a story of return. Return to self. To voice. To the quiet knowing that guides us when everything else falls apart.

If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to let go of the life you built to become the person you were meant to be, this conversation is your permission slip.

In this soul-stirring conversation, Whitney McDuff sits down with the extraordinary Jenny Glick, a transformational coach and thought leader, to explore the journey of self-awareness, relationships, and the radical act of shedding societal conditioning. Jenny shares her deeply personal evolution—from a fiercely independent feminist activist to a woman who confronted the unseen walls in her marriage, motherhood, and mindset. Together, they dive into the power of self-reflection, the cost of living in urgency, and the essential shift from front-body anxiety to back-body safety. Whether you're navigating personal growth, relationships, or the weight of external expectations, this episode is a must-listen for anyone ready to step into their true, unfiltered self.
