Do you struggle with the fear of sharing your story—afraid of being judged, misunderstood, or rejected? In this episode of The Living Story, we explore why so many women hesitate to tell their stories and how God can transform fear into freedom.
Through the lens of Elizabeth Acevedo’s novel The Poet X, the biblical journeys of Jeremiah, Moses, and Esther, and my own personal reflections—from teaching and career shifts to singleness, family conflict, friendships, and creativity—we’ll uncover the patterns that keep us silent and the growth that comes when we step out in courage.
This episode is packed with scripture, storytelling, and practical encouragement to help you:
If you’ve ever asked, “Who am I to share this?” or felt the pull to hide your testimony, this conversation will remind you that your story matters—and that God meets you right in the trembling.
Whether in family, work, relationships, or your creative journey, this episode will encourage you to honor the person you are becoming and embrace the sacred power of your voice.
