Tue, 11 Mar 2025
"Are you scrolling through life instead of living it?" In this episode, CCB, Allie, and Natasha explore the challenge of balancing life online and off. They talk about how social media can be fun but also overwhelming, leading to being anxious all the time. “Scrolling can feel like a comfort blanket, but it can also keep us from real connections!" They share personal stories about their experiences with social media, like how doom scrolling affects mental health. The conversation shifts to the importance of community and being present. They emphasize the value of personal connections over online ones and suggest ways to set boundaries with technology. The episode ends with a listener question from Jessica, who asks, "Do you ever give yourself rest?" Listen in to hear their answers about how rest can involve more than just sleep.

Life can feel like a roller coaster, but it's so much better when we go through it together. Welcome to the Candace Cameron Bure podcast. Season nine is Girls Under Pressure with Ali Schnacki and Natasha Bure. Come join us. Hi, ladies. Hi. You're looking so beautiful. Thank you. Thank you so much. You're welcome. And yourself. Oh, thank you. I'm so happy that you guys are here. These are so fun.
Before we get into this conversation, and today we're talking about finding balance online and offline. So lots of social media talk. But Allie, tell me again, I want to know about Jay Walker's podcast. Yeah. And your women's ministry. So give us the rundown and a recap.
Yeah. So I always felt called to do ministry growing up and I didn't know how God was going to do it, but through social media, he started my ministry chosen in free co, which is a women's ministry just based around finding your identity and then connecting you with girls that really help you discover what God's purpose over your life is. And so that was something I needed.
And so, you know, God created a burden in me to start that for someone else. And he's just grown that we do in-person events, Bible studies. We have an Instagram page that girls just connect. It's really cool, especially because I mean, like you Natasha, I didn't really have that community growing up. So to be able to provide that for girls is just a huge blessing. And I'm part of it too.
And then Jaywalkers Worship, is actually, it was our youth group. Like growing up, my family felt called to start a youth group. And through the years, God has just transitioned it. And now it's a worship collective. I do a podcast because we believe worship is just using what God's given you to bring glory back to Him. And so I speak on the podcast. I interview like-minded believers and...
We do a lot of music and now we're just trying to use everything God's given us to really advance the kingdom.
So tell us where you can find Jacob Walker's podcast anywhere. You listen to podcasts also on YouTube.
Yes, on YouTube, Spotify podcast and also Apple podcast. OK, great. Our music, too. OK, awesome. Natasha, tell us what you're up to these days.
