Have you ever been told you're too sensitive? Too emotional? Too intense? Too much? Maybe you learned to monitor how much you talk in conversations, always holding back. Maybe you apologize for having needs, or you've gotten really good at making yourself small so others feel comfortable around you.   Episode Description In this episode, we explore the "I'm Too Much" barrier and discover that you were never too much—you were just in spaces too small. Through stories of transformation, including the revelation that "enthusiasm" literally means "having God within," you'll uncover how religious environments fear female power and authentic expression. This isn't about becoming more demanding—it's about understanding that what you were told was "too much" was actually God's Spirit expressing through your unique design.   In this episode, you'll discover: → How the "I'm Too Much" belief gets installed through messages that your emotions are excessive, your needs are selfish, and your passion is prideful → Why you weren't born with a problem—you were born with a size eight foot but given a size seven shoe (or smaller) → What this barrier is costing you in your relationships, spiritual life, work, and even in your physical body → How real love—divine love—doesn't ask you to shrink but invites you to expand into bigger spaces → One brave action this week to stop apologizing for your fullness and step into spaces big enough to honor who you are   Healing Truth You were never too much. You were divinely designed. The fire in you, the passion, the deep emotions, the big dreams—none of that was ever the problem. What you were told was "too much" is actually God's Spirit expressing through your unique gifts. You didn't need to become smaller. You needed bigger spaces, bigger relationships, bigger containers that could honor your divine design. Real love doesn't require you to be less—it celebrates you being fully you.   Ready to go deeper?

Have you ever noticed how easy it is to give to everyone else... but when it comes to receiving—whether that's rest, support, money, or even joy—something inside you freezes up? Maybe you undercharge for your work, or buying yourself something beautiful feels almost... sinful.   Episode Description In this episode, we explore the "I Don't Have" barrier—a deep-rooted belief that there's never enough for you. Through Tekyia's transformation story from fear-driven obedience to love-based trust, you'll discover how scarcity thinking gets installed through religious messaging and infects both your material and spiritual life. This isn't about becoming materialistic—it's about understanding that God's pleasure is to give you the Kingdom, and you were always meant to flourish.   In this episode, you'll discover: → How religious environments confuse scarcity with holiness, teaching you that wanting more means you're selfish → Why "I Don't Have" is really about unworthiness—the belief you don't deserve abundance from God, others, or life itself → The connection between material scarcity and spiritual scarcity, and how both keep you depleted and afraid → How to shift from serving everyone from emptiness to serving from overflow and God's provision → One practical step this week to start receiving God's abundance without guilt or fear   Healing Truth You were never meant to live in scarcity. God delights in your thriving. It is your Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom—not His reluctant obligation, but His pleasure. You're not selfish for wanting rest, not greedy for desiring provision, and not spiritually immature for feeling depleted. God isn't glorified by your depletion or honored by your exhaustion. He came that you may have life to the full—and that fullness includes both spiritual and material abundance.   Ready to go deeper?

Have you ever felt like your presence only matters when you're doing something for someone else? Maybe you've spent years showing up for everyone - listening to their struggles, meeting their needs, celebrating their wins. But when it's your turn? When you're hurting or exhausted or just need someone to see you? The room goes quiet. The phone doesn't ring. And you tell yourself, "It's fine. I don't need much." If you've learned to be "low-maintenance" and the easy one who doesn't cause problems, or if you've been making yourself small and invisible just to keep the peace - this episode is for you.   Episode Description If you've been living as though your needs don't count, you're not alone - and you're not too much. Today we're exploring one of the most painful hidden barriers of religious trauma: the belief "I Don't Matter." Through Debra's story - from having major decisions made without her voice to discovering that God wasn't the one making her invisible - we'll uncover how religious environments can teach women that self-sacrifice means self-erasure and that asking for help is selfish. You'll discover how Jesus treated every individual as supremely valuable through His divine healing methods, and learn that the sacred parts of your soul were meant to be cherished, not trampled. This isn't about becoming more demanding - it's about discovering that you matter completely, not because of what you accomplish or how perfectly you serve, but because God placed immeasurable value on you when He created you.   In this episode, you'll discover: → Why minimizing your needs and making yourself invisible keeps you disconnected from authentic care - and how to recognize when you're doing it → How Jesus' far-seeing intuition took in the necessities of each person's case - from the blind man to the bleeding woman to Mary and Martha → The sacred parts of your soul that were meant to flourish in safety, to be seen with tenderness, to be valued without performance → The revolutionary truth that just as a baby doesn't have to earn her parents' care, you don't have to earn God's attention and love → One simple act of self-care this week that reflects your inherent worth - not because you earned it, but because you matter   Healing Truth You matter completely - not because of what you do, but because of who you are. Jesus' far-seeing intuition still takes in all the necessities of your case. Your pain still moves His heart. Your needs are sacred to Him. The sacred parts of your soul that were meant to be cherished aren't too damaged for His healing touch. The woman who allows herself to be seen, who honors her needs without guilt, who receives care without feeling she must immediately reciprocate - she's not someone you have to become. She's who you've always been, waiting to be remembered beneath all the minimizing.   Ready to go deeper?

Have you ever felt like you just... don't fit? Maybe you've been told you're too sensitive, too analytical, too emotional, too intense, or that you ask too many questions. Maybe you think too much, feel too deeply, or see things in ways that other people just don't understand. Or maybe nobody said it out loud - but you sensed it. You picked up on the subtle messages that your natural way of being was somehow wrong. If you've ever wondered "Why can't I just have simple faith like everyone else?" or felt like the way God made you was somehow a mistake - this episode is for you.   Episode Description If you've been hiding your true self because you thought being "different" meant being defective, you're not alone - and nothing is wrong with you. Today we're exploring one of the most isolating hidden barriers of religious trauma: the belief "I'm Different (in the wrong way)." Through Debra's transformative story - from being shushed for her enthusiasm to discovering that "enthusiasm" literally means "God within" - we'll uncover how religious environments can label your God-given traits as flaws and teach you to suppress your spiritual intelligence. You'll discover that what you thought were defects are actually divine faculties - spiritual intelligence designed to connect you directly to God and fulfill your unique purpose. Your sensitivity, depth, questions, and way of seeing aren't problems to fix but gifts to celebrate. This isn't about becoming more like everyone else - it's about discovering that your differences are your divine design, and the world needs exactly what you have to offer.   In this episode, you'll discover: → Why feeling "different" in religious spaces often means your spiritual faculties are operating - and how to recognize your unique gifts → What spiritual intelligence really is - the mind faculties like intuition, perception, curiosity, imagination, and heart's desire that God installed in you at birth → How traits labeled as "too much" (sensitivity, analytical nature, questioning spirit, creativity) are actually evidence of your divine equipment → The revolutionary truth that different doesn't equal defective - it equals divine design for your specific calling → One simple practice to identify and honor your strongest spiritual faculty instead of hiding it   Healing Truth You're not different in the wrong way. You're different in exactly the right way for your divine calling. What you've been told are flaws are actually spiritual faculties - divine intelligence designed to connect you with God. Your sensitivity is spiritual perception. Your analytical nature is divine wisdom. Your questions are curiosity seeking truth. The woman who celebrates her unique spiritual intelligence instead of suppressing it - she's not someone you have to become. She's who you've always been, waiting to be remembered beneath all the hiding.   Ready to go deeper?

Have you ever done everything right... and still felt like something was fundamentally wrong with you? Maybe you've been the good girl your whole life - the rule-follower who memorized scripture, volunteered at church, showed up early and stayed late. You've tried so hard to get it all right. But somehow, it still wasn't enough. You still felt behind, disorganized, like you were failing at faith itself - even though you couldn't pinpoint exactly what you were doing wrong. If you've ever felt exhausted from trying to follow all the rules while the goalposts kept moving, or if you've wondered why being a "good Christian" still leaves you feeling like a spiritual failure - this episode is for you.   Episode Description If you're exhausted from religious performance and still feeling like you can't get it right, you're not alone - and you're not failing. Today we're exploring one of the most depleting hidden barriers of religious trauma: the belief "I'm a Failure." Through Debra's powerful story - from having every business dream shut down to discovering she could be brilliant AND imperfect at the same time - we'll uncover how religious environments create impossible standards that keep Christian women on an endless treadmill of trying harder. You'll discover the revolutionary difference between religious rules that exhaust you and divine principles that set you free, and learn why God's character isn't a measuring stick for your worthiness but a compass that guides you toward growth. This isn't about lowering standards - it's about discovering that principles are about direction, not perfection, and that you're not failing when you're learning.   In this episode, you'll discover: → Why the exhausting cycle of rule-following never brings the peace you're seeking - and how to recognize when you're measuring yourself by broken systems → The difference between religious rules (external, performance-driven) and divine principles (internal, character-aligned) - and why this changes everything → How God's principles like gentleness, individuality, free will, and love become your compass instead of condemnation → The liberating truth that principles are about trajectory, not perfection - you don't have to stay in the center of the lane to be heading in the right direction → One simple practice using divine principles to make decisions with clarity and peace instead of fear and guilt   Healing Truth You're not a spiritual failure. You've been trying to navigate by rules that were designed to measure and control instead of by principles that guide and transform. God's principles aren't new rules to follow perfectly - they're a compass pointing you toward His character. The woman who makes decisions from internal wisdom instead of external pressure, who lives from character alignment instead of performance anxiety - she's not someone you have to become. She's who you've always been, waiting to be remembered beneath all the striving.   Ready to go deeper?

Have you ever cried... and then felt ashamed for crying? Maybe you poured out your heart to someone you trusted - a spiritual leader, a friend, even God - and instead of being held in your pain, you were told to have more faith, pray harder, or just get over it. Or maybe you've learned to hide your struggles altogether because somewhere along the way, you started believing that your pain was proof something was fundamentally wrong with you. If you've ever felt like expressing honest emotion meant you were spiritually weak, or if you've been waiting for others to notice you're hurting while never actually telling them you need help - this episode is for you.   Episode Description If you've been hiding your heart because you thought your pain made you unlovable, you're not alone - and you're not damaged goods. Today we're exploring one of the most devastating hidden barriers of religious trauma: the belief "I'm Unlovable." Through Debra's deeply personal story - from being told her grief was spiritual adultery to discovering God's inexpressible love in sacred sorrow - we'll uncover how religious environments can silence women's pain and teach them that honest expression equals weak faith. You'll discover an ancient language of worship that was stolen from you but has always been yours - the practice of lament - and learn why your pain doesn't repel God but actually moves His heart toward you. This isn't about becoming less emotional - it's about discovering that nothing you feel is too much for God, and that your wounds don't make you damaged, they make you beautifully, achingly human.   In this episode, you'll discover: → Why hiding your pain and minimizing your needs keeps you disconnected from authentic love - and how to recognize when you're doing it → The ancient practice of lament - bringing your unfiltered heart directly to God without cleaning it up first → How God's ḥesed (loyal, covenant love) meets you in your deepest places, not because your pain disappeared but because you've encountered His presence in the middle of it → The difference between being unloved and being under-nurtured - and why this reframe changes everything → One simple practice to start bringing honest emotion to God each day and watch for the moment when His inexpressible love breaks through   Healing Truth Your pain doesn't make you unlovable. It makes you human. And God's ḥesed - His loyal, covenant love - is specifically for humans in all their beautiful brokenness. You don't have to be healed to be loved by Him. You don't have to have it all together. The woman who brings her whole, broken, furious, grieving heart directly to God - she's not someone you have to become. She's who you've always been, waiting to be remembered beneath all the hiding.   Ready to go deeper?

Do you ever catch yourself walking on spiritual eggshells—even in spaces that should feel safe? Maybe you find yourself scanning the room before you speak, wondering if your question will be received well, or if your honesty might be labeled as having "the wrong spirit." Maybe you've learned to adapt, to become whoever the room needs you to be, because authenticity feels dangerous. If you're a Christian woman who loves God deeply but still feels like you're constantly braced for correction or rejection, this episode will help you understand why—and show you the path to the spiritual safety you're longing for. Today we're exploring the profound truth that could heal one of religious trauma's most painful barriers: your hypervigilance wasn't paranoia - it was wisdom protecting you from real spiritual danger.   Episode Description If you've been living in spiritual hypervigilance, constantly adapting to survive instead of standing in your truth, this episode will revolutionize how you understand safety in your faith. Today we're healing the devastating "I'm Not Safe" barrier by discovering how to distinguish between God's safe love and the harmful dynamics that taught you to live on guard. Through a personal story of spiritual manipulation disguised as loving guidance, we'll explore how religious trauma teaches us that safety comes from human approval rather than God's unchanging love. You'll learn why your constant vigilance wasn't paranoia—it was wisdom responding to real spiritual danger. Most importantly, you'll discover how to separate God from the people who misrepresented Him, and find the courage to trust your own God-given discernment. This isn't about avoiding all spiritual guidance, but about learning to hear God's voice directly instead of through human interpretation. You'll walk away understanding that questioning isn't rebellion—it's relationship, and that God delights in your authentic heart, not your spiritual performance. Safety isn't found in avoiding all risk, but in the arms of a God who has prepared a future for you with hope.   In this episode, you'll discover: → Why your spiritual hypervigilance was actually brilliant wisdom protecting you from real manipulation→ The difference between healthy spiritual guidance and controlling authority that uses Christian concepts for manipulation→ How to separate God's character from the people who misrepresented Him through fear-based teaching→ Practical steps to practice authenticity with God first, then with safe people in your life→ The revolutionary truth that questioning deepens relationship with God rather than threatening it   Healing Truth You are safe in God's love, and that safety isn't dependent on anyone else's approval or interpretation of His will for your life. God delights in your authentic heart—questions, emotions, and all. You were never meant to live in spiritual fear. You were meant to rest in His perfect love that casts out all fear.   🎧 Ready to go deeper?

What if your "character flaws" were actually brilliant survival strategies? Maybe you've been looking at your people-pleasing, perfectionism, or emotional sensitivity and thinking, "Something is really wrong with me." Maybe you carry quiet shame about the ways you learned to cope, believing they prove you're selfish, manipulative, or fundamentally flawed. But what if you weren't bad - you were surviving? And what if you were brilliant at it? Today we're exploring the truth that could heal one of religious trauma's deepest wounds: your survival patterns aren't evidence of your badness - they're evidence of your brilliance.   Episode Description If you've been carrying shame about your survival patterns, believing they prove something is fundamentally wrong with you, this episode will revolutionize how you see your story. Today we're healing the devastating "I'm Bad" barrier by discovering the truth that changes everything: you weren't bad - you were a brilliant survivor. Through Tekyia's powerful story of transformation from shame-driven faith to love-driven relationship with God, we'll explore how God-given gifts like sensitivity, intelligence, and compassion get repurposed as survival tools when trauma occurs. You'll learn the difference between the "shame lens" that sees character flaws and the "wisdom lens" that recognizes brilliant adaptation. Most importantly, you'll discover how to reclaim your gifts from survival mode and use them for their original purpose - not just surviving, but thriving. This isn't about excusing harmful patterns, but about recognizing the wisdom in your survival so you can transform it into authentic living. You'll walk away understanding that your sensitivity is a superpower, your intelligence is a gift, and your compassion is exactly what the world needs - not despite your survival patterns, but because of the brilliance that created them.   In this episode, you'll discover: → The revolutionary difference between the "shame lens" and "wisdom lens" - and how it transforms your entire self-perception→ Why your people-pleasing, perfectionism, and hypervigilance were actually God-given gifts being used brilliantly for survival→ How religious trauma teaches us to see our natural gifts as dangerous, forcing them into survival mode→ The "survival pattern appreciation" practice that helps you recognize your brilliance instead of your brokenness→ Practical steps to reclaim your gifts for thriving instead of just surviving - moving from defensive to authentic living   Healing Truth You are not a collection of character flaws that need fixing. You are a brilliant survivor with God-given gifts that got repurposed for survival when life wasn't safe. Those gifts - your sensitivity, your intelligence, your compassion - they were never the problem. They're your superpowers waiting to be reclaimed. You weren't bad. You were surviving. And you were brilliant at it.   🎧 Ready to go deeper?

Have you been giving until you disappeared, believing that's what God wants from you? Maybe you've spent years believing your worth is tied to your output - constantly proving yourself through spiritual performance, serving until you're empty, trying to earn God's love through perfect behavior. But here's a revolutionary truth: God never required your exhaustion. He asked for your presence - not your performance. If you've been living like "a mirror that lies," constantly reflecting back your worth based on what you produce instead of who you are, this episode will change everything about how you see yourself and your faith. Episode Description If you're bone-deep tired from running on what feels like a spiritual performance treadmill, this episode reveals the profound difference between artificial motivation that depletes and natural motivation that energizes. Today we're healing the exhausting "I'm Not Enough" barrier by discovering that God never required your exhaustion - He's been inviting you into rest all along. Through Kristina's powerful transformation from crushing striving to peaceful presence, we'll explore how religious trauma dresses itself up as virtue, convincing women that giving until they disappear is what faithful service looks like. You'll learn to distinguish between artificial motivation (driven by fear, guilt, obligation) and natural motivation (flowing from love, inspiration, genuine desire). Most importantly, you'll discover that your worth was never meant to be tied to your output. This isn't about becoming less committed to God - it's about understanding that He wanted your heart, not your hustle. You'll walk away knowing how to stop living like a mirror that lies and start reflecting back the truth of who you really are. You'll finally understand that trauma dressed in religious language convinced you to serve from depletion, but God's invitation was always to serve from overflow. In this episode, you'll discover: → The life-changing difference between artificial motivation (depleting) and natural motivation (energizing) - and how to tell which one is driving you→ Why "giving until you disappear" isn't virtue but trauma dressed in religious language→ How the belief "you are only as worthy as your output" gets installed in religious environments→ The "motivation check" practice to help you distinguish between serving from fear versus serving from love→ Why God asked for your presence, not your performance - and what divine rest actually looks like Healing Truth You are not only as worthy as your output. God never required your exhaustion - He's been inviting you into rest all along. His love for you isn't conditional on your performance. The woman who serves from natural motivation, who rests without guilt, who knows her worth isn't tied to what she produces - she's not someone you have to become. She's who you've always been, waiting to be remembered beneath all the artificial striving.   🎧 Ready to go deeper?

Have you ever felt that tension between the God you personally sense and the religious expectations around you? Maybe you've spent years making yourself small to keep everyone else comfortable, while your true self remains hidden even from those closest to you. You've perfected what I call "helpful invisibility"—being indispensable but somehow still unseen. People notice your service, your put-together life, your ability to care for others, but no one really knows your dreams, your struggles, or who you are when the lights dim. Episode Description If you've ever felt invisible in the ways that matter most—seen on the surface but unknown in your depths—this episode is for you. Today we're exploring the #1 hidden barrier of religious trauma that keeps Christian women feeling unseen: the belief "I'm invisible." Through Simone's powerful story of navigating the tension between the God she sensed and religious expectations around her, we'll uncover how religious environments can teach women that being seen is dangerous, prideful, or inappropriate. You'll discover why invisibility isn't humility—it's often a survival strategy that once kept you safe but now keeps you from the deep connection with God and others that your heart is longing for. This isn't about becoming the center of attention. It's about recognizing that you were never meant to disappear, and that the God who sees you has been calling you by name out of hiding and into the light all along. Through biblical grounding in the story of the woman with the issue of blood, you'll see how Jesus stops everything to notice those who feel invisible and calls them "Daughter." In this episode, you'll discover: → Why "helpful invisibility" is actually a trauma response, not a spiritual gift—and how to recognize it in your own life→ How religious trauma teaches women that being seen is dangerous for their souls and spiritualizes self-erasure as virtue→ The beautiful truth about Jesus stopping everything to see the woman who touched His robe—and how He restores her name, place, and visibility→ One simple practice called "the one true thing" to start letting yourself be seen in small, safe ways→ How your visibility becomes an invitation for other women to step out of hiding too Your Practice for This Week When someone asks how you are, pause and share one true thing instead of automatically saying "fine." Notice what it feels like to let yourself be known, even in that small way. Healing Truth You are not invisible to the One who made you. You never have been.

"What if I told you that you have permission to rewrite your story—your faith story, your relationship with God, even your understanding of who you're meant to be—without losing the God who loves you?" If that sounds impossible because you've been taught that questioning anything means losing everything, this episode will set you free. God isn't threatened by your growth. He's actually been waiting for you to step into the fullness of who He created you to be.

"What if I'm being deceived? What if I can't tell the difference between truth and trauma?" If you've ever been terrified to trust what might be God's voice because of spiritual harm, this episode will change everything. When you've experienced religious trauma, every spiritual voice starts to sound suspicious. But here's the beautiful truth Debra discovered: God's real voice sounds nothing like the voices that caused harm. Nothing like shame, manipulation, or fear.

Have you ever walked away from church feeling heavy and confused—then immediately told yourself, "I'm probably just being too sensitive?" If you've ever felt that spiritual discomfort but didn't have words for it, this episode is your gentle awakening call. In this foundational conversation, Debra shares her own powerful story of finally finding language for her experience—that life-changing moment when her daughter sent a video that made everything click. Through tender storytelling and compassionate teaching, you'll discover why one in three adults carry religious trauma, yet most Christian women don't even recognize it's what they're experiencing. This isn't about extreme cases you see on the news. It's about the subtle, quiet ways spiritual harm can happen—and why your sensitivity might actually be picking up on something that really was wrong. In this episode, you'll discover: → What religious trauma actually looks like for faithful Christian women→ Why we've been taught to blame ourselves instead of recognizing harmful patterns→ The difference between God's loving conviction and the voice of condemnation→ How to start trusting your inner compass again—without fear→ Why questioning doesn't make you rebellious (it makes you brave) The truth that will change everything: You can't heal what you can't name. Once you have language for your experience, everything can start to shift. Action Step: Pay attention to how different spiritual messages make you feel in your body. Does this make you feel closer to God or farther away? Does it leave you with hope or with shame? Healing Truth: Your confusion isn't rebellion. Your questions aren't lack of faith. Often, it's your soul recognizing that something claiming to represent God was actually misrepresenting Him. 🎧 Ready to go deeper?→ Take the free quiz at ReligiousTraumaQuiz.com to discover your personalized healing path and get a bonus 3-part audio series→ Grab your copy of He Is Enough at HeIsEnoughBook.com — your redemptive memoir and healing guide plus audiobook, mini-course, weekly reading circles, and support community for just $17 Have questions or want to connect?
