We are SO excited to have Dija Henry as our guest for this final episode of season four (don’t worry, we’ll be back in the Spring with fresh new testimonies from AH-MAZING women of faith)! Dija’s a wife, mama to three, an actress, filmmaker, and most importantly, a woman of God.

Dija’s journey to becoming a filmmaker is unlike any we’ve ever heard but there are lots of similarities with which many of us can easily identify. Take marriage, motherhood, and life with MS for example. Many think these roles/conditions must put a stop to our dreams as women but this isn’t the case for Dija.

In today’s episode we chat about:

how MS (multiple sclerosis) can affect daily life,living as a multi-ethnic family,becoming a filmmaker without attending film school,social impact theater,waiting for God to answer prayers + give direction, and more!
