She Speaks Life is a weekly encouraging podcast where everyday women share their God stories hosted by Jayme Elizabeth.
What if the very thing you see as a limitation is actually the place where God’s greatest purpose is revealed?
In this powerful and heartfelt episode of She Speaks Life, Jayme sits down with CEO, leadership mentor, and first-time author Lisa Nichols to talk about her newly released book, Something Extra: Uncover Your Strengths, Unlock Your Potential, Unleash Your Impact. This conversation is rich with faith, wisdom, and real-life stories that will stir your heart and challenge the way you see leadership, purpose, and obedience to God’s call.
Lisa shares the deeply personal story behind Something Extra, inspired by her daughter Allie, who was born with Down syndrome and truly embodies “something extra” — extra joy, extra love, extra courage, and extra faith. Through Allie’s life, Lisa learned profound lessons about humility, identity, fearlessness, and what it means to fully use the gifts God has given us for His glory.
Together, Jayme and Lisa explore:
Why leadership always starts on the inside
How humility shapes effective, God-honoring leadership
The danger of seeking man’s approval instead of God’s
What it means to abide in Christ (John 15) and bear lasting fruit
How obedience, gratitude, and surrender shape our daily walk
Why your gifts are not meant to be hidden, but shared
Lisa also opens up about a life-altering car accident that reshaped her understanding of humility, the power of vulnerability in leadership, and why consistency and surrender are essential for long-term impact. You’ll be encouraged by her family’s nightly gratitude tradition, her biblical insights, and her reminder that what you do today is part of God’s eternal story.
This episode will inspire you to unwrap the gifts God placed inside you, lead with humility, and live with eternal perspective — because the world truly needs what you carry.
📖 Something Extra is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and at somethingextrabook.com
🎧 Listen in, be encouraged, and step boldly into the “something extra” God has placed within you.

In this powerful episode of She Speaks Life, Jayme Elizabeth sits down with author, speaker, and YouTube teacher Kris Reece to unpack a topic many believers may quietly struggle with: narcissism and toxic relationships.
Kris shares the heart behind her book, Breaking the Narcissist’s Grip, and how God called her to help believers break free from controlling, manipulative dynamics so they can reclaim the peace, identity, and confidence God intended for them. Kris dives into what narcissism really looks like, why it’s more common than we think, and how it shows up in families, marriages, friendships, and even Christian spaces.
You’ll gain biblical clarity on:
The different types of narcissistic traits (including covert narcissism)
Why toxic relationships create confusion, self-doubt, and spiritual exhaustion
How codependency and trauma bonds keep people stuck
What Scripture teaches about confrontation, discernment, and obedience
How to set healthy, biblical boundaries—and why boundaries don’t look the same for every relationship
The difference between forgiveness, trust, reconciliation, and access
This conversation will bring validation, wisdom, and hope. Most importantly, it will help you shift your focus off the toxic dynamic and back onto what God wants to heal and restore in your life.
✨ Takeaway: You are responsible for obedience—not outcomes. When you stop striving and invite God to do His work, freedom begins.

✨ Why studying the supernatural realm helps us overcome fear—not feed it
✨ Common misconceptions about angels (Do they really have ALL have wings? Do we become angels when we die?)
✨ Surprising biblical truths—including angels who pray, worship, defend, deliver messages, protect God’s people, and enact His judgment
✨ How angels point us to the greatness, power, and holiness of God
✨ Melissa’s A-N-G-E-L-S acronym that breaks down six key roles angels play in Scripture
✨ Why remembering the unseen realm changes the way we pray, discern, and walk with Jesus
This episode will expand your understanding of the supernatural, strengthen your confidence in God’s protection and purposes, and renew your awe for the One who reigns over both heaven and earth.
Whether you’ve always been curious about angels or never given them much thought, this conversation will open your eyes to the beauty, order, and intentionality of God’s heavenly hosts—and how they’re still at work today pointing us back to Him.

Yana unpacks why forgiveness is one of the most challenging yet freeing commands God gives us—and how we can walk it out in real life.
Yana shares her personal journey of navigating abandonment, the pain of her father’s absence, and how those early wounds shaped her view of God. She opens up about the anger she had to confront, the grief she had to acknowledge, and the healing that began when she learned what forgiveness truly is—and what it is not.
Throughout the episode, Jayme and Yana talk through:
✨ What the Bible actually means when it calls us to forgive
✨ A powerful definition of forgiveness rooted in mercy, not emotions
✨ Why forgiveness doesn’t require an apology
✨ How unforgiveness keeps us stuck, closed off, and spiritually imprisoned
✨ What happens when confrontation doesn’t go the way we hoped
✨ The difference between forgiveness, reconciliation, trust, and forgetting

In this episode, we’re diving into one of the most powerful promises in Scripture—Matthew 6:33: “But seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.”
Have you ever found yourself chasing direction, or provision and still coming up empty? God doesn’t want you to chase what He’s already promised to add. Jesus gives us the answer in this one verse: it’s not about chasing things—it’s about seeking and pursuing Him.
We’ll look at what “seek” means in the Greek and how “first” reveals God’s divine order in our lives. When we align our hearts under His Kingdom, everything is added by Him already!
Through personal reflection, scripture personalization, and faith declarations, we’ll discover how to live from a place of divine order instead of striving. When God is first, everything else follows.
You’ll learn how seeking God first isn’t just about putting Him at the top of your to-do list, but that every thought and action flows from Him being in the center—a God-centeredness position that opens the flow of divine provision, direction, and peace. When you seek first His Kingdom, you’ll never come up empty-handed!

I share personal insight, practical steps, and a spoken declaration that will help you replace lies with God’s truth, discern His will with clarity, and live each day in alignment with His purpose. This isn’t about striving for change—it’s about surrendering to the Holy Spirit’s renewing work and allowing God to build something new within you.

What does it really mean to trust in the Lord with all your heart? In this powerful episode of She Speaks Life, we dive deep into Proverbs 3:5–6 — a timeless passage that teaches us how to walk in total dependence on God, even when life feels uncertain.
Through a rich breakdown of the Hebrew meanings, you’ll discover how “trust” (batach) means to feel secure and confident in God’s faithfulness, and how “acknowledge or submit” (yada) invites us into intimate relationship with Him in every decision we make. Together, we unpack how this verse reveals God’s unwavering character—faithful, wise, and personal—and how we can personalize this promise in our own lives.
You’ll walk away encouraged to surrender control, strengthened to trust God’s guidance, and equipped with declarations and reflection questions to help you live this truth daily.
Friend, you don’t have to live confused. Direction is yours in Christ Jesus!
