*** I am labeling this as explicit simply because it may not be suitable for younger children - the topics include trafficking, addiction and domestic abuse, however, no profanity. The content that is discussed is done so respectfully to Kristin and all who have endured any kind of abuse.

Welcome to the Official Podcast of Ladies Full of Grit. In this episode you'll meet Kristin Vaughn, a dedicated advocate for those that have endured addiction, abuse and trafficking. Why has she dedicated her life to this mission of saving others out of those situations? Because SHE is a trafficking and domestic abuse survivor. While this episode does not have strong language, it does include topics where listener discretion is advised for younger ears. We want you to be aware of that! This is HER story. She doesn't sugar coat, hold back or shy away from what she endured.

Welcome to the Official Podcast of Ladies Full of Grit. In this episode I am honored to have had a surprise guest for our Ladies Full of Grit group, Amy King, formerly known as Amy Duggar, who was on a TLC show for 14 seasons. I was excited for her to pour into us from a professional level but we got to learn so much more too. She is full of grit, has taken her own path in life and is passionate about serving her community.
Who is Amy King? Aside from being in the spotlight for 14 seasons, she's a wife, mom and entrepreneur! What excited me most about interviewing her, along with her insight, was that this was an opportunity to shine a light on who she is outside of the spotlight. She is so kind, caring, humble, hilarious and fun to talk to! It was great to celebrate her for being her.

Amy King was a business owner of 3130, a clothing boutique. Her husband has owned a renowned restaurant with an award winning chef you'll get to hear all about! She has mastered the pivot when it comes to business, overcoming hardship and she's a dedicated wife and mom that loves the Lord. Her experiences are hers and she speaks of those from the heart. My purpose and goal was to hear first hand how she's built her professional life, what routines she has in place and get any advice that can help our group and listeners persevere through whatever hardships or obstacles they're facing.

If you'd like to connect with Amy please go follow her on her Instagram here and her Facebook here.
