We can spend our entire lives waiting for someone to say the words we've been longing to hear—to affirm us, choose us, forgive us, or tell us we're enough.
Yet the deepest hunger of our hearts can never be satisfied by human approval.
The words we've been longing for have been spoken by God all along.
His Word is the nourishment our souls have been craving.
Jeremiah declared,
"Your words were found, and I ate them,
and your words became to me a joy and the delight of my heart,
for I am called by your name, O Lord, God of hosts" (Jeremiah 15:16).
At this year's Activ8Her LIVE Conference, you'll be invited to release the empty words
that have shaped your identity and receive the living Word that reminds you
whose you are and who you are in Him. Together, we'll feast on the truth of Scripture,
discovering that lasting joy isn't found in chasing better circumstances
or waiting for the approval of others. It is found in being nourished by
the One who has called us by His name.
Come ready to lay down what no longer gives life. Come hungry for the Word that does.
Release the Empty Words. Receive the Living Word. Rediscover Joy.

Kolleen Lucariello
Kolleen is the Executive Director of Communication & Content for Activ8Her. With her gift of storytelling and her sense of humor, she is always a conference favorite. Kolleen loves to share what God is showing her and has done so at retreats, conferences, MOPS meetings & Bible studies.
Kolleen discovered God had given her the ability to write when she found herself unexpectedly broken by a season of change. As she studied God's Word with a journal in hand, God began showing her that she had become lost in her identity by allowing her "do" to infect her "who." She had been living in a false identity; her true identity was found IN Christ.
Never imagining God would take the pages of her journal and use them to begin her journey into writing, over the course of time, #beYOU: Change Your Identity One Letter at a Time was published. It's been said that Kolleen has a way of taking the circumstances of her life to reveal a principle everyone can relate to from God's Word.
Throughout the years, Kolleen has written articles for numerous ministries. She is also a contributing author to the following books: Sage, Salt & Sunshine; Women Inspiring Women with Insight, Truth, Light & Joy (A WordGirls Collective). Gather the Goodness: A Taste of Kindness, Gentleness & More (A WordGirls Collective); Life in the Estrogen-Free Zone: Humor and Heartfelt Wisdom from Boy Moms; and Life, Repurposed: Stories of Grace, Hope, and Restored Faith. All available on Amazon.
You can connect with Kolleen on Facebook and Instagram as well as at Activ8Her.org.
