In the premiere episode of the Unqualified Podcast, hosts Paige Loehr and Danielle Welch reflect on their five-year journey to finally launching the show. They share heartfelt stories of faith, friendship, and spiritual growth, diving deep into why they feel "unqualified" in the world's eyes but fully empowered by God's calling.
This episode explores the tension between passion and credentials, the reality of healing from trauma, and the boldness required to speak truth in a religious culture. Paige vulnerably shares her testimony—how God has used her brokenness and lack of formal education to bring healing to others. Together, Paige and Danielle outline what listeners can expect from the show: real conversations, spiritual insight, and a safe space for believers and seekers alike.
