The Becoming Series: Coming Home to the Woman God Created You to Be
There’s a sacred messiness in the middle, that space between who you were and who you’re becoming. It’s uncomfortable, uncertain, and if we’re honest… sometimes it just feels funky.
This week inside The Growth Lounge, we’re getting practical. Because unbecoming isn’t just spiritual - it’s somatic. It’s emotional. It’s physical. And the way we move through it matters.
In this episode, I’m walking you through simple, holistic ways to un-funk yourself. The kind of practices that calm your nervous system, create mental clarity, and reconnect you with your faith and purpose again.
We’re talking about the kind of healing work that happens behind the scenes. No filters, no applause, just real growth that lasts.
The power of journaling and how writing things down moves emotions from your amygdala (emotional brain) to your prefrontal cortex (rational brain)
How Christian meditation helps lower cortisol, regulate your breathing, and create space for God’s peace to enter
The science behind grounding in nature and why connecting with the earth literally calms your nervous system
How laughter shifts your body chemistry and brings joy back into your healing journey
Why changing your circle of influence can change your energy, mindset, and belief system
What it means to do the “dark work” the unseen, unglamorous, behind-the-scenes steps that build unshakable growth
This is the episode that helps you take your healing from concept to practice, from thinking about change to living it.
Where do I feel “stuck” or emotionally foggy right now?
What could I release through writing that I’ve been holding in my body?
What does stillness feel like in my day and how can I make more space for it?
Who in my circle makes me feel peaceful, supported, and spiritually grounded?
What “dark work” am I avoiding because no one will see it but God?
Friend, this season isn’t meant to break you, it’s meant to balance you.
When you begin supporting your healing from the inside out - your body, mind, and spirit start speaking the same language. You feel lighter, clearer, and more aligned with who God created you to be.
So if you’ve been walking through a funk… you’re not lost. You’re just in process.
Let this be the week you slow down, journal it out, laugh a little more, step outside, and start doing the quiet work no one sees because that’s the work that changes everything.
If this episode spoke to you, share it with a friend who’s in her own unbecoming season and needs a little hope today.
Tag me on Instagram @jessicaphillipsco and tell me which “un-funk” tool you’re starting with first; journaling, grounding, laughing, or changing your circle.
And if you’re ready to go deeper, DM me the word UNFUNK and I’ll send you my 7-Day Reset Guide to help you find peace and flow again.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
