Eighth & Grace with Brandy Dawson
Podcast Description
Ever feel like life just gets hard and MESSY sometimes? Because, girl - ME TOO.
Welcome to the Eighth & Grace Podcast.
I’m Brandy. Daily, I delicatly juggle and balance being a mama, wife, nanna B, seminary student, writer, Bible teacher, coffee re-heater, and recovering overthinker. Also, going on 16-years of being a Nurse Practitioner. So when I say I’ve seen messy, I reallyyyy mean it.
But, the physical body can sometimes be a lot easier to treat than the emotional and spiritual aspects of our body. You see the pain, most of the time, you can fix the pain.
Our faith and emotions aren’t quite so obvious.
After walking alongside women through the high and hard seasons of life, I wanted to create a grace space for messy faith - so we can all know we aren’t alone and be singing GIRL ME TOO collectively. WE are in this TOGETHER.
Life is hard. AND you're covered in grace. Life is complicated. AND you can still hope again. Both can be true and I want to stand with you as I remind us that God is still good. Even when this world is broken.
Eighth & Grace is a hub for broken vessels so we will be covering everything from the mundane moments of everyday life and self exploration to clinging to our faith and holding onto the thread of Jesus garment.
Girl, you’ve got a place here. And I’m so honored to be part of your journey. Let's grow together.

What if the walls trying to keep you out were actually the ones God called you to break down?
Have you ever felt like you were living a life someone else scripted for you? Like the blueprint doesn’t quite fit your soul? If you said yes, you’re listening to the words meant for you today. For the one who’s tired of waiting for permission- because deep down, she knows she was born to build…
Buid dreams. Build Legacy. Buid differently.
In this raw and hope-filled conversation with Elizabeth Scruggs, a trailblazer in the male – dominated world of construction and design.From building her first home at 21 to running a respected contracting and design firm, Elizabeth’s story is proof that calling doesn’t always come wrapped in convention.
We recorded this episode in her beautifully curated home office, surrounded by samples, blueprints, and legacy. But what she shared went far beyond design- It’s a story of resillence, faith, and fierce obedience.
Breaking Ground In a Man’s World
Elizabeth opens up about:
- Finding her voice when she was the only woman in the room
- Building a career while raising a family and keeping the faith
- Why mentorship and community make all the difference
Redefining Success on Your Own Terms:
We talk about the sacred tension between ambition and surrender, and the courage it takes to chace a dream that doesn’t look like anyone else’s. Elizabeth’s wisdom will leave you asking what am I building and who told me it had to look this way?
If you’ve ever questioned your calling, felt out of place in a room, or needed a reminder that you can be both soft and strong – this episode is for you.
