In this episode of "Sitting Down With Tessa," I wanted to touch base on a topic that is rather cliche in the Instagram world, but one that is defining and redefining an entire generation.

In this very special episode, I invite my very first guest on the show to talk about the importance of using social media to empower women to walk about their calling. My friend Blake Guichet, powerhouse instagramer and talented website and brand designer of Magnolia Ink is here to talk about why she felt called to use social media as a means to influence women.

This episode is packed full of vulnerable moments about life before our marriage, sex, failures, misconceptions, and unbelief. In this message, I bear it all from my life before marriage to the many struggles me and my husband faced as young newlyweds and soon to be parents.

In this episode we will dig deeper into the topic of what it means to be an internet influencer. We will peel back the many layers on our understanding of what an influencer is and what it means to influence. Are we influencing based on a desire to change the world? Or are we influencing based on a desire to be seen?
