Conversations With My Freshman Self

Find Your People, Find Your Community

In our final episode of the season, we’re discussing how to find your people and build community, especially in college, when it can feel challenging! We share stories about times we felt lonely, left out, or unsure of where we belonged, and how those seasons led us closer to God. From showing up to church alone to finding mentorship and friendships that truly build us up, this episode is a reminder that community takes time, patience, and a lot of faith! We also talk about what it looks like to stay close to people who aren’t in the same place spiritually, and why quality over quantity is so important! If you’re still figuring out where you fit or just need some encouragement to take that next step, we hope this episode encourages you! Thanks for being a part of this journey with us — we are so so so grateful!!!!

Chasing Identity in Shifting Culture with Special Guest Alyssa Brito

In this episode, we sit down with OU softball star and three-time national champ Alyssa Brito for an honest convo about what it looks like to stay rooted in your faith and identity when the world around you is constantly changing. Alyssa speaks about her journey from chasing success and identity in softball to discovering the true freedom of Christ, and how it has completely transformed the way she lives and plays. We discuss the pressure to live up to expectations, why worldly wins never fully satisfy, and how personal faith keeps us rooted when the world is telling us differently. If you’ve ever felt like you're trying to figure out who you are or how to hold on to your beliefs in a loud culture, this one’s for you.

We’ll explore the reality of trials in a believer’s life, the importance of humility, and the way faith impacts everyday moments. Whether you’ve wrestled with doubt, struggled with cultural misconceptions, or just want to grow deeper in faith, this conversation is for you!
