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.
I’m Brandy and this is the Eighth & Grace Podcast.

Ever feel like life just gets hard and MESSY sometimes? Because, girl – ME TOO.
Life doesn’t always go according to plan.
Dreams take longer than we expected.
Prayers go unanswered.
People leave.
Bodies break.
Faith gets complicated.
And somewhere along the way, many of us start believing that hope is waiting on the other side.
On the other side of healing.
On the other side of the breakthrough.
On the other side of finally getting where
we thought we’d be.
But what if hope isn’t waiting there?
What if it’s right here?
Welcome to the Wildly Hopeful Podcast.
This is a space for the woman living in the middle.
And here, we have wildly hopeful chats about
everyday life and everything in between.
Not where you started.
Not where you thought you’d be.
Not quite where you’re headed.
Just here.
In the tension.
In the waiting.
In the questions.
In the becoming.
In the fun.
In the grief.
And in the mundane.
Each week, we’ll have honest and sometimes spicy conversations about faith, grief, purpose, healing, disappointment, joy, and what it looks like to follow Jesus when life doesn’t unfold the way we planned.
Because this isn’t a podcast for women
who have it all figured out.
It’s for women learning that God’s presence is not reserved for the finished story.
It’s for women discovering that even in the wilderness, there is still beauty.
Even in the waiting, there is still purpose.
Even in the ache, there is still grace.
And even here,
there is still hope.
So whether you’re holding onto a promise, walking through a season you never would have chosen, or simply trying to find God in the ordinary rhythms of everyday life, pull up a chair.
You’re not alone here.
Because hope isn’t waiting
on the other side.
It’s right here.
And somehow, that’s where Jesus
has been all along.
I’m Brandy.
And this is the Wildly Hopeful Podcast.

Christmas in October, Adult Freindships & Holiday Cheer, oh my!
Can Thanksgiving and Christmas lights coexist? Yes. My answer is yes. Can the woman hosting dinner please sit down and eat while the food is still warm? Also, that’s a yes from me. Brandy is back with What About This? on Fridays corner of Wildly Hopeful with seventeen tabs open in her brain to yap about. Life updates you did’nt ask for, group texts gone quiet, and a cookie skillet situation involving questionable amounts of butter. It’s all here and we’re also talking about friendships, holiday stress, Thanksgiving games to play, thoughtful gift ideas, and finding joy while you’re still asking God to change some things in your life.
A little Jesus, A little Tinsel magic, and permission to let somebody else make the potatoes. Grab your coffee and let’s catch up. Shall we? Also, would you send this to your Christmas in October friend so she knows we are a whole community? And send it to your friend who just needs a laugh and a seat at the table.
