She Walks in Truth is a podcast where you can listen in on and hear God-inspired messages and faith stories to encourage people to walk confidently in Christ.
Upon return to the states, I will be joining the She Walks in Truth team, working part time as a content creator with a focus in the areas of social media, podcast, & blogging platforms.
For this I am thrilled and am excited to share with you the why behind it.
So…how did I get connected with this gig? Good question!
The founder, Carrie Robaina is a cherished friend & mentor. She is a sister in Christ I met while living in MN several summers back. Carrie is gifted in many ways. She is an entrepreneur, encourager, wife, mother of 3 kiddos, CEO, speaker, passionate about sharing the gospel, & a natural at empowering people to be the world changers they are capable of being in this lifetime.
I just adore this woman & truly look up to her in numerous ways (Check out the photo of us together above! That is from our time together on a recon trip helping prepare for a missions trip in San Francisco 2015)
I am so excited to learn from this opportunity & feel in my heart this is going to help me build a foundation of knowledge for starting something unique like this too. To learn from such a trusted mentor & friend, is almost too good to be true.
A little background on this part time gig: Carrie & I catch up over the phone on a regular, usually monthly basis & after a long phone call with her in China this past year…I finished that conversation totally inspired, challenged, and free to dream BIG.
It was that conversation I felt the Lord use as a turning point for me regarding vocations to pursue after the race. I had decided that upon return to the states I would try & give it a shot to pursue something with deep purpose that involved creating, encouraging, equipping, & Joy, all with a Jesus centered focus.
(What that would look like a year from now…I didn’t know exactly & either do I know right now…but I know together, God & I are onto something & love the thrill of it!)
I also remember thinking to myself after that phone call, “man, how cool would that be to partner up with Carrie on what she is doing & learn from her on this whole podcasting/blogging platform she has going on”.
& I said a quick prayer to God, something along the lines of “Who know’s God, I know you’ll work things out the way you see fit & I give all these dreams and desires to you”.
Fast forward several months later….
Carrie & have our regular phone call catch up. In that conversation we were chatting about “post world race opportunities.”
Long story short…it clicked in our heads at just about the same time. Carrie shared the need for some extra help with She Walks in Truth & I shared that I was interested in learning from her. She said it would be a flexible means of employment & I would learn a lot from it. I said, YEP that sounds like a good plan to me. I’m in.
Sometimes you just know. You can feel it in your spirit. A big YES! Joy. Timing. Growth. Answered prayers. BOOM.
Friend, may this encourage you today. God’s timing is perfect. He hears the desires of your heart & cares infinitely more than we can fathom ourselves. This is just one glimpse of that.
So, for all you podcast lovers…you can find She Walks in Truth on itunes, Lybsyn, Stitcher and Facebook. You can follow she walks in truth on instagram too. Feel free to shoot Carrie a message, she would love to connect no doubt 🙂
Over the past year I’ve had the privileged to listen to these podcasts on a regular basis & walk away encouraged and refreshed every time. Carrie interviews woman of the Christian faith from all types of backgrounds & there is something I have taken away from it every time. So whether you are driving, taking a walk, resting, or taking a break from work…this is a great show to tune into.
I would love for you to be part of this journey with me too. I really believe what She Walks in Truth is doing, will minister to your heart in priceless ways.

Kailey,
I am so excited for you! Don’t you love how our God takes us on a journey and every time there’s a question, He never leaves it unanswered?! Your new venture sounds awesome! I have never heard of this organization. I want to hear more about your future plans and I want to see you. Please let me know when you get back to the states. I want to take a weekend trip and maybe stay at your moms one night just to visit with you. You are such an inspiration to me! Through your World Race experiences and blogs, I have grown so fond of you and excited about your passion for Christ. I can’t wait for you to get back! Please call me when you’re home. I’d really like to drive up and see both you and your mom.
Lots of love, Aunt Karen.
Hi Kailey,

Kailey
The foundation you are laying right now as a young person to live a God-filled life is going to direct you going forward. I love the stories and places you have been. You have a courageous heart for God. In some ways, I think it will be tested more when you return to the states that some of the places you have been. Wait and see I guess. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Watching in admiration and learning from you about God’s desire for us – being open to his will and desire for each of us. You are serving as a great model for many of us. Continued blessings and prayers your way.
Yes yes Kailey!
What an awesome next step I have no doubt. What a brilliant collection of your various gifts, skills and passion, combined with the optimum vehicle to pour them all into, all while being mentored and discipled along the way. Knowing your ever enlarging heart to be about your Fathers business, makes us Proud of you for having have been patient enough to have allowed HIM the space and time to connect the dots!
I couldn’t be more thrilled than to have you on this journey with She Walks In Truth. Kailey, you are a remarkable young woman and I have been so blessed by you, your friendship and deep love for others and Christ. You are a joy-bringer and joy-giver. You will no doubt be an incredible creative talent and asset to the team and as much as I am excited to have you on board, I’m equally excited for you to learn and continue to spread your wings and fly in the exact purposes and plans the Lord has for you. I love you so much, my friend! Can’t wait to see you in January!!! xoxo
Kailey this is so cool! Wow I can’t wait to hear some truth wrapped in love! I’m sure this is just the beginning of the incredible adventure God has for you!
Aunt Karen! 🙂
Wow. What an encouragement you are. I am honored & so excited to visit with you and catch up upon return to the states. It’s going to be so good! Yes and yes and yes to all the above. I’ve already messaged my momma about it. We are PUMPED 🙂 & one day, when I have a place of my own–you are welcome ANYTIME!!!! Oh I just love how connections stay forever. Life long! You are a true treasure to our family.
I am so thankful for the world race & the people who have poured into me this entire year. It’s been refreshing & rejuvinating in priceless ways. I can’t wait to share more 🙂
Yes! I love Jesus so much! God has grabbed a hold of my heart forever & I just want to be a glimpse of that love the rest of my life. This is what we live for wahooo!!! 🙂
You know I will be calling you upon return to the states. Count on it! 🙂
SO much peace, joy, love, & blessings sent your way Aunt K!
Thank you so much Gammelgaard family! You guys are just the sweetest. Looking forward to hopefully seeing you again sometime in MN this spring 🙂
You are awesome!
JORDAN!!!! IT MEANS SO MUCH TO ME THAT YOU TAKE THE TIME TO READ THESE !!! OH HOW I LOVE YOU MY SWEET AND BEAUTIFUL SISTER! SOUNDS GOOD I PROMISE I WILL NOT STOP! 🙂
Mr. Vandermolen-
What a gift you are! There are very few people I know who have the honor to carry on a student/principal relationship beyond high school & look at it now…my goodness I am blessed! For you to encourage me like this is so impactful & I value every word of encouragement you said.
As far as returning to the states. I think you are correct. My prayer is to walk back into the states with a steady peace & rest in the Lord, knowing that yes, this faith will be tested probably even more from here on out. Learning to honor & love well-yet still stand firm in the truth of Jesus Christ no matter what is an ever growing process. But so so good.
Thank you again so much for your prayers & encouragement! You are super awesome, Mr. Vandermolen! I love to celebrate & share with others the goodness of God through writing & truly honored for you to keep up with this journey. wow.
Take care & I look forward to connecting again in the future!
Awe thanks Matt!!!!
You’ve got a real gift in describing things well. I love what you said above about being able to “use gifts, skills, and passions combined with a vehicle to pour them all into while being mentored & discipled”.
God has blessed me so much with incredible people like you & Kathy too.. its quite overwhelming in some ways! Thank you for your encouragement Matt. I can’t wait to see you & Kathy again so soon. What gifts you are too!

It is so cool!
