Podcast Overview
<p>Naturalies. My name is Samantha-Jo, I am the host for this amazing podcast that I am hoping save souls. My reasoning for starting this podcast came about after I gave my life to Christ on July 11, 2021. I started finding myself constantly want to talk about my struggles (HOT: humble, open & transparent), the things that have given me strength, the things God has done for me & most importantly the things I know that God has for me. I know you're thinking "oh here we go with some religious podcast" but I'm asking that you look deeper than that. I am a Christian & yes I pray this podcast changes lives in ways beyond my belief but if its not enough to convince you to stay I will also mention the other things I am that God has allowed me to be. I am a single Mother of 4, YES FOUR amazing boys who at the end of this year will be 12, 6, 4 & 2. I am a business owner (if you have instagram JosCraftShack & Sheis.waisted). I am also a nurse, I have been for almost 4 years now. So again if religion isnt enough to convince you to stay then stick around for the other things I have to offer. Why Naturalies? I recently (1 year ago) left a very toxic relationship after 8 years & literally started completely over in the middle of the pandemic with all 4 children. I literally built my own kitchen table, tv stand, coffee table, my bed & childrens bed & started over knowing only what I thought I knew. Black women have been placed in boxes all of our lives. "Starting over is harder than you think so you should probably stay" "You cant do it without this person or that person", "You have to act this way, its not lady like to do it that way", "You cant jump out on faith because nobody in our family has done that", "You cant be better than what you come from", "your idea isnt good enough to take you there" ALL LIES, LIES, AND MORE LIES THAT PEOPLE HAVE PLACED ON BLACK WOMEN & LADIES YOU DO NOT HAVE TO AGREE TO MEET ANY STANDARD YOU, YOURSELF, DID NOT SET! This is my safe haven for black women, no matter what you look like, your body size, your bank account or profession, single mom, married mom, in a bad situation, left a bad situation LISTEN I do not care. Come, let your hair down, act the way you want to act even if it doesn't make sense to anyone else, cry a little, heal a lot & know that this is a sisterhood. Im so ready for this journey. I love you ladies.</p>

Im Back
<p>OMG I FORGOT TO UPLOAD EPI 1 & 2 TO THE AUDIO!!!!!!!!! I DELETED THEM OFF MY COMPUTER, SO YOU WILL HAVE TO GO TO MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL TO LISTEN TO EPISODE 1 & 2, WHICH ARE ALREADY POSTED!! I AM SO SORRY!! IM BACK & I BEEN BACK!</p><p></p><p>Episode three is so fire, raw and real! I asked The Holy Spirit to help me with what I should talk about ("What my marriage taught me"), I didnt know where to begin because boy it's been so much! I got the revelation while running and boyyyyy did God drop it on me! "Run your race at the pace that I set forth for you to run at; remove the time and destination from your focus and just enjoy the journey." I remember being married and the biggest thing I dealt with was someone leading me somewhere God wasn't and him rushing me to do the things he felt I should be doing that I KNEW God hadn't asked of me. </p><p>Sometimes we will let people have an input on what we should be doing, how we should be doing it etc and when you are unclear of what God has said you should be doing in this season of your life; you will let those people persuade you. </p><p>In my marriage and on my walk with Christ these past almost 5 years, I have been at Jesus feet, and he has been the center of my life and everything I do. I knew what God was asking of me and it wasn't matching what my spouse was asking of me. This was my biggest deal breaker because you can't lead if you're not being led, and if I would have stayed he would have led me to hell. </p><p>This episode teaches the importance of knowing what God has instructed you to do, and being okay running your race as that pace even if you sprint past others, if they sprint past you or maybe you'll pass others who are running slower. Let God do what he needs to do in you so that you will live out to do his will.</p><p>I got divorced so you could get delivered. </p>

IM BACKKKK!
<p>Girl where have you been? Why haven't you posted anything? All your questions get answered in this season of the podcast. Not only will we go over where I have been but what God has done through my absence and also what he has taught me during my season of isolation. This season is going to be so good and I am thrilled to be back doing what I love so much! Chapters of my life have ended, healing has taken place, adjustments have repositioned me, and new doors have opened like no other. I pray that you are just as excited as I am because it's been such a long time and I am so happy to be back!!! SEASON 6, LET'S GO!</p>
