Girls Night with Stephanie May Wilson
That Sounds Fun Network
Are you in your “Everything Era”... aka, that wildly confusing decade-ish where you have to make some of the most significant decisions of your life – all at the same time?Your 20s and 30s are full of big transitions — career pivots, changing cities, wondering if/when you’ll get married, having kids, not having kids, losing friendships, building new ones…It’s a lot. And somehow, the world expects you to make all the right decisions with no real guidance (and a highlight reel constantly playing in the background).Here’s the good news: You don’t have to figure it out alone.Introducing the “Girls Night” (hosted by me, Stephanie May Wilson, 9x author and TEDx speaker!) – the podcast version of the group chat that fills your cup instead of draining it.You know that rare kind of girls' night…the one where you laugh until your stomach hurts, cry a little, get real about what’s going on in your life, and leave feeling like you can actually do this?That’s exactly what the Girls Night Podcast is all about.With over 7.3 million downloads and 3,900 five-star reviews, it’s where women in their “what-am-I-doing-with-my-life” era come to feel less alone and way more equipped.Because let’s be honest.. googling “What am I doing with my life?” at 2 AM isn’t working, and you know it. As listener Adrienne puts it:“It feels like being welcomed into the coolest inner circle of incredible women who want you to be the best version of yourself possible. Stephanie and her pals make you feel loved, seen, and heard. The episodes are honest, they're raw, and they're hilarious.”So, if your brain feels noisy and your heart feels uncertain, put your earbuds in. You’ve got a Girls Night waiting.

Girls Night #154: The Beautiful Things that can Happen When Your Life Doesn’t go According to Plan
I’m so excited about today’s episode. Today we’re talking about the beautiful things that can happen when your life doesn’t go according to plan.I recently had the privilege of being a guest on a podcast called, On the Front Porch. The hosts are two amazing women from our Girls Night community, Angela and Mary. They are so much fun. They asked amazing questions. And I loved the conversation so much I just knew I had to share it with y’all. I asked them if I could share the interview we did for their show here on Girls Night and they so graciously said yes!I’m excited about this episode because if you’re anything like me, you’ve had this picture in your head for a long time of how your life was going to play out. You were going to attend that school, get that degree, get hired for that one job you’ve always wanted, get married, have kids, buy your dream house and the list goes on! But, as most of us know, life doesn’t always play out like we want it to or in the time frame we hope it will.Sometimes God has a way of wrecking our plans, or at least that’s how it’s felt to me at several points along the way. And that’s the story you’ll get to hear today.In this episode, I’m sharing about my faith journey and how I met Jesus in the most unexpected way, and in the most unexpected place. I’m talking about several times when God completely wrecked my plans when it came to my career. And finally, I’m sharing how God completely transformed my outlook on dating and relationships and helped me make the most of my single life.You guys, I share so much of my story in this episode and how God has shown up in the BEST ways possible, and I truly believe he can and will do the same for you!

Girls Night #153: How to Like Your Life (even when you’re not exactly where you want to be) with Jordan Lee Dooley
Today we have my real life friend, Jordan Lee Dooley back on the show to teach us how it’s possible to really like our lives (even when we’re not exactly where we want to be).Jordan has a new book called, Embrace Your Almost: Find Clarity and Contentment in the In-Betweens, Not-Quites, and Unknowns. I love this because so many of us have found ourselves here. So many of us are experiencing heartbreak, disappointment, lost dreams, and never-ending delays. We’re in seasons of waiting — waiting for a relationship, a promotion, a baby, or a big move. We’re in a place where our life just isn’t working out the way we thought it would, the way we really, really want it to. And that’s HARD. It’s even harder to know what to do when we’re in this place. Do we try harder? Do we keep pushing? Do we give up and walk away? How do we know? And as we’re waiting, what do we do in the meantime? Jordan’s going to walk us through all of this and more. I can’t wait for you to hear from her.Episode Links:Jordan’s Podcast: She PodcastJordan’s Book: Embrace Your Almost: Find Clarity and Contentment in the In-Betweens, Not-Quites, and UnknownsPast Girls Night Episodes with Jordan:Girls Night #5: How to Keep Comparison from Stealing Your JoyGirls Night #58: How to Overcome Impostor Syndrome: Pursuing Your Dreams When You Feel Like a FraudCONNECT WITH JORDANFacebook // Website // InstagramCONNECT WITH STEPHANIEFacebook // Bookstore // InstagramOur sponsor for today’s episode is Faithful Counseling.
