The God And My Girlfriends Podcast
Women are born nurturers, but they sometimes overlook nurturing the three most important relationships in their lives: with God, their girlfriends, and themselves. Join hosts Marcia Ramirez and Stacey Wynn as they bring on friends and special guests to discuss ways to help enhance our spiritual lives, strengthen our friendships, and learn how to take better care of ourselves too!
