After exposing The Pretty Side of Deception in the last episode, we explore a powerful message from Colossians 3–4 — a passage that shows what happens after the deception is revealed.
In this conversation, I share her personal story of leaving karmic astrology and discovering what it really means to die to the old self and be raised in Christ. We uncover how New Age and New Thought movements have hijacked the word “resurrection” to glorify self-power — and why true resurrection isn’t a rebrand or “next-level season,” but a holy surrender that leads to quiet, lasting transformation.
If you’ve been in that in-between space — between who you were and who God is forming you to be — this episode will help you find peace in the pause, strength in hiddenness, and beauty that the world can’t manufacture.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- The difference between reinvention and resurrection
- How New Age mentors distort the idea of “rising” and “rebirth”
- Why true transformation requires death to self before new life in Christ
- How to let God fill the empty spaces instead of rushing to “manifest” something new
- What it means to be clothed in Christ — compassion, humility, gentleness, and peace
- How to live for Heaven’s applause instead of the world’s approval
When you stop striving to reinvent yourself and allow God to resurrect you, everything changes. The pace slows. The noise quiets. What once felt like loss becomes holy preparation. The Illuminated Woman doesn’t chase visibility or validation anymore—she learns to rest in the hidden work of God, trusting that what He resurrects in secret will one day reflect His glory in full light. This episode reveals it all.
The Illuminated Connection Call is a free conversation where we talk heart to heart—no pressure, no agenda. I’d love to hear what’s on your heart, where you are in your life and spiritual journey, and what you’re sensing God may be stirring in you. Whether you’re just beginning to question the New Age path, exploring Biblical truth, are already living a God-led life, or simply feeling lost and unsure—this space is for you. Schedule through this link.

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.
