Amiga Arise | Awaken Identity. Discover Freedom. Journey With God.

Hola Amiga, this is Priscilla Gomez and Haley Martnick, your hosts for the Amiga Arise Podcast. Haley and I are two women of faith, and who are called to care for others. We are passionate about educating, empowering and equipping women of all ages and backgrounds to deepen their relationship with self, God and others. Priscilla and I have our own unique testimonies, and that God beautifully brought us together to share the same freedom we experienced in our walk with Christ. This podcast is discipleship, an invitation to awaken your true self, find God’s presence, and allow His love to transform each part of your life. Priscilla is a Licensed Clinical Therapist who entered this field to help others find healing from emotional wounds and trauma, but she quickly realized true healing was not possible without the love of God. She has then introduced faith into her treatment care for others and invites all to journey with God for their well-being. Haley has her Masters in Leadership Studies with an emphasis in Spiritual Formation. She is a Mentor, Spiritual Director, and Creative! Haley seeks for all to discover freedom and their royal identity in Christ. Her heart is to mentor youth and counsel women in all seasons of life. She believes every person has a beautiful calling on their life and wants to walk with others into their true, whole beloved self. We will tackle hard conversations and explore a wide range of topics related to spirituality, psychology and relationships. We will be using our educational background and experience in mental health, theology and leadership to challenge current norms, broaden your awareness, and encourage your faith. We invite you to embark on this journey together. We promise to have fun, learn, laugh, cry and pray together.

Hola Amiga,
In today’s episode Haley and Priscilla talk all things surrounding the topic of sex, sexuality, and desires all within the context of faith. 
What is your relationship with sex? Priscilla and Haley answer this question with Biblical truth.  They explain the importance of relationship with God to fully understand underlining issues or concerns that arise with sexual sin.  Priscilla and Haley dismantle the idea of shame around sex and sexual desires and encourage all to get curious with God.
Love your, 
Amigas!

Hola Amiga,
In today’s episode I chat with Sabryna Costello about her process and journey on finding Jesus.  Sabryna shares vulnerably how her life before Jesus revolved around body image, sexuality, drug use, performance and perfectionism.  She thought she had found peace through Buddhism, but it wasn’t until she found Jesus that she actually found real peace, grace and mercy.  Her story is incredible and a beautiful testimony of God’s work at hand.  Her story and her friendship has blessed my life.  I pray this episode blesses you, and if so, please share this episode with anyone else you think could also benefit from listening. 
Love,Priscilla
