đââď¸ Have you ever felt like your emotions were too muchâor worse, that feeling them meant you lacked faith? Many Christians think scripture teaches us to suppress emotions, but upon closer look, we see scripture encourages us to process them in a healthy, biblical way.
What if your emotions arenât the enemy? What if God designed them to be a powerful tool for healing and growth?
In this episode, I sit down with Alicia Michelle, a Christian life coach and neuroscience expert, to talk about how to break free from perfectionism, people-pleasing, and shame cyclesâusing both science and Scripture.
đ§ Listen now to discover:
âď¸ Why so many Christians struggle with emotions (and what the Bible actually says)
âď¸ The shocking near-death experience that changed Alicia Michelleâs view on emotional health
âď¸ The science-backed, biblical approach to breaking free from perfectionism & people-pleasing
âď¸ How to manage emotions with the Holy Spirit (without suppressing them)
âď¸ A simple 3-step method to process emotions in a healthy, faith-filled way
đĽ If youâve ever been told to "just pray more" or "push through," but still feel stuck in emotional strugglesâthis episode is for you.
