Have you ever handed someone an invisible “manual” for how they must act so you can feel loved? In this episode, I unpack the coaching concept of The Manual—those thick, unspoken expectations we place on partners, friends, and family—and how tying our emotions to other people’s behavior keeps us stuck, resentful, and walking on eggshells. Through Scripture (Matthew 7:3–4; James 3–4; 1 Peter 2:21–24), we’ll shift from control to personal responsibility, learn the difference between emotional immaturity and abuse, and discover a Christ-centered path to show up with grace, boundaries, and peace. You’ll walk away with a simple practice to create a manual for yourself—so you can love others as they are, while honoring who God is forming you to be. ✨ Want deeper support?

Growing up in the LDS (Mormon) religion, she always believed she had the "truth" of the gospel. All of that was radically challenged after she was encouraged to read the Bible and defend the truths she was taught to believe in. After embracing the teachings of Jesus from the Bible, her faith journey has profoundly changed her life and the facts she has come to recognize. This podcast is aimed at supporting divorced Christian women to navigate their paths with faith in God, grace, resilience, and a renewed sense of hope for the future. Coming to learn and understand relationships, love, and marriage through Biblical facts and the Word of God, Katie discovered how deeply intertwined its teachings were with the tools she had learned as a LifeCoach, and she is here to teach you how to understand that the power of the Bible's teachings are more relevant and applicable to your life today than ever. With Katie, you'll learn how to understand the concepts of the Bible and how to apply them into your life with the knowledge and training I've received as a Life Coach.In each episode, we'll explore the powerful intersection of Christianity and thought work, uncovering how our beliefs and the stories we tell ourselves shape our lives, and more importantly, relationships. You'll learn practical strategies for becoming more aware of your thoughts, how they connect to Biblical teachings of Christ, and ways to align them with the life and love you know God has in store for you. #christianwoman  #daughterofgod #christiandivorce #blessed #love #godislove #lovelikegod #christlove #exmormon #ldsChrist #wisdom #trustinggod #divorcedchristian #Jesus #christ #bibleplan #bible #childrenofdivorce  #christainmoms #christianrelationships #postdivorce #faithrelationships #faithmarriage #faithdivorce #lds #empoweredwomen #exlds #faithafterdivorce #divorcedwomen #christianwomen #faithafterdivorce #womenoffaith #healingfromdivorce #christiansupport #divorcerecovery #spiritualgrowth #christiancommunity #righteousness #blendingfamilies #secondchances #biblicalcoaching #christianwomen #christianity #boundaries #selfworth #healingafterdivorce #lifeafterdivorce #faithoverfear #abundantlife #BeyondBelievingPodcast #PostDivorceChristianWoman #GodlyWomanhood #IdentityInChrist #RuthAndBoaz #Proverbs31Woman #EstherCourage #MaryOfBethany #BiblicalWomanhood #ChristianHealing #ChristianDating #SingleChristianMom #Fa
