How Following the Prophet Helped Me Find My Voice Artwork

The Articulate Women Podcast

We are talking to women in the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints about how they are articulate in their faith, and find more clarity through their trials. Becoming an articulate woman in the last days is not just about speaking clearly without mumbling—it is about sharing from the heart and bearing a strong testimony of what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. Join host Melissa Buckley as she interviews women about their unique journeys towards articulateness and what it means to them to more fully communicate their personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

How Following the Prophet Helped Me Find My Voice

March 29, 2021 • Melissa Buckley • Episode 1

As I approached General Conference in the fall of 2018, I was in a deep depression and grasping for light and knew that I could find it through asking questions at Conference. When President Nelson issued the four challenges to the women, I jumped at the chance to follow the prophet. I knew it would change me, but I was not prepared for how it would change my whole life in a variety of ways. Following the Prophet helped me find my voice.
