In this episode, I’m sharing what God taught me about releasing relationships that were hurting more than healing. W...

I used to believe that if I could just manage everything perfectly: my emotions, my kids, my goals, then healing would come. But God had to show me: healing doesn’t flow from control, it flows from surrender.

Have you ever felt like your past mistakes disqualified you from being used by God? Like no matter how much you try, shame keeps whispering that you’re not enough, not worthy, not lovable?

Are you feeling the weight of God’s call on your life? Maybe you’ve said “yes” to your purpose, but the journey feels heavy—lonely nights, unanswered prayers, and the temptation to quit.

I’ve been there. I know what it feels like to be stuck between guilt, regret, and fear of what’s next.

Let’s talk about it.

There’s a fine line between being self-aware and being self-conscious—and for a long time, I didn’t know the difference. I thought I was doing the “inner work,” but really… I was just overthinking everything, watering myself down, and calling it humility.

Let’s be real—freedom doesn’t always feel like butterflies and breakthrough.

Sometimes it feels like fear, stretching, awkward obedience, and faith that shakes while it moves.

In this episode, I’m breaking down what it means to walk in freedom—even when your emotions haven’t caught up yet. I’ll share how I had to decide I was free long before I felt healed… and how Galatians 5:1 became my l...

Because I used to believe that rest was something you earned—after you performed, produced, and proved yourself. But sis… rest is not a reward—it’s a weapon.

In this episode, I’m calling out the spiritual addiction to busyness and helping you unlearn the lie that healing comes through hustle. If you’ve ever felt guilty for slowing down or anxious when you’re not doing enough...

In this episode, I’m getting real about something that used to keep me bound—shame.

For years, I carried the weight of a decision I made at 14 when I had an abortion. I thought I had to earn God’s love back. I tried to perform my way into freedom. But it wasn’t until I started telling the truth—in my Broken 2 Healing docu-series—that the shame finally lost its grip.

If you’re a woman who’s ...

Let me ask you something real—are you actually ready to heal that trauma… or just hoping it won’t hurt?

In this episode, I’m getting all the way real about what it takes to break free from cycles of stuckness, survival mode, and spiritual numbness. Because healing? Healing will cost you.

That mental fog? The confusion? The sudden exhaustion when it’s time to pray or create or show up? It’s not random. It’s spiritual warfare.

We’re breaking ...

Let’s get honest, sis.

You can read all the devotionals, serve every Sunday, and still feel stuck in shame. I know—because I’ve been there.

In this raw, redemptive episode, I open up about a part of my story I carried in silence for 15 years—having an abortion at 14 and silently believing it disqualified me from healing, wholeness, and even purpose. But God had something else to say.
