Ep 129 // How to Stop Playing Small and Live Unapologetically in Your Assignment with Jeanette Peterson

What would change if you lived fully into who God says you are—without apology, hesitation, or fear?

In this empowering conversation, Megan Nilsen sits down with Jeanette Peterson, a bold woman of faith, veteran, and kingdom entrepreneur. Together, they explore the intersection of faith, military service, personal healing, and God-given identity. Jeanette shares how she transitioned from military life to ministry, healed from deep trauma, and embraced her calling with fierce clarity.

This episode is a rallying cry for women who are ready to live unapologetically, walk in their kingdom purpose, and support one another in faith-filled community.

Takeaways:

• Your identity is not your past—it's who God says you are.
• God doesn’t ask for perfection, but for presence and obedience.
• Healing from trauma equips you to help others find freedom.
• Spiritual transformation > behavior modification.
• The Proverbs 31 woman isn’t just one person—she’s a picture of what we can build together as women of faith.

"Your identity is not who you were."

"I want you to be whoever God called you to be."

"Behavior modification is not the goal—spirit-led living is."
