Meet Candace Oliver
Hi, I'm Candace.
I'm a wife, mom of four, pastor, speaker, entrepreneur, podcast host, and forever a girl's girl.
I love Jesus. I love people. I love life. I love all things beauty. I love deep conversations that challenge us to grow. And every single day, I choose joy because I'm deeply grateful for the life God has given me.
I believe every person has been intentionally created with unique gifts, purpose, and dreams that are meant to be lived.
I also know what it's like to be a prisoner to insecurity. I know what it's like to lose your voice trying to please everyone else. I've walked through heartbreak, fear, and seasons that tested everything I believed. But I've also experienced the faithfulness of God, and I believe freedom is possible for every person.
Part of my calling is to help unlock the voices of women, equip leaders, and remind people who they are in Christ. My desire isn't simply to encourage you, it's to help you build a life of courage, conviction, and confidence so you can boldly pursue everything God has placed inside of you.
I'm also crazy enough to believe that when women stop competing, start celebrating one another, and courageously walk in their God-given calling, we don't just change our own lives, we help change the world.

💛 Listen & Grow
Strong Confident Girls is a movement I co-founded with my bestie, Emily, to help girls and women discover who God created them to be and have the confidence and courage to live it out.
Through our podcast, curriculum, school assemblies, speaking events, and practical resources, we're equipping the next generation, and the women raising and leading them to walk in their God-given identity, use their voice, and live with boldness.
We believe confident women build confident girls. And when women stop competing, start celebrating one another, and courageously step into their calling, we can change generations.

My prayer is simple: that every email leaves you stronger, more encouraged, and more confident to pursue the dreams God has placed inside of you.
