Truth Bomb: Saying “I’m fine” is the easy way out, and it’s robbing us of the connection we all crave.
In this powerful conversation, Kristen Hallinan and Taylor Joy Murray dive into the hidden struggles behind anxiety, the disconnect between how we appear and what we truly feel, and why honesty with ourselves—and with God—is the first step toward healing. From the role of spiritual warfare to the integration of faith and therapy, they unpack what it means to stop masking pain and start embracing true freedom.
If you're ready to move beyond surface-level answers and find connection through authenticity, this episode is for you.
