Join Stasi and her guest Melissa Johnson – therapist, teacher and author – as they discuss soul-deep beauty. Most of us have been sold a shame-based view of beauty which can rob us from resting in our true authentic beauty. Melissa defines authenic beauty as the life of God at work in us and among us. Friends, we are at our most lovely when we are living in union with God, embracing the fullness of the life for which we are created.
