Have you ever walked into a church women’s event, a Bible study, or even a casual gathering and felt… disconnected? Like you had to hold back, filter yourself, or downplay your success just to fit in?
💡 What if I told you it’s not just the church that’s making you feel this way—it’s also you?
In today’s episode, we’re going deeper than external church culture and into the hidden trauma patterns that cause high-achieving Christian women to shrink, self-isolate, and feel unseen in faith spaces.
We’ll talk about: ✨ Why church feels like it wasn’t built for women like us (but why that’s only half the story) ✨ The subconscious trauma responses that make you pull back before anyone even rejects you ✨ How shrinking, self-isolating, and filtering yourself started as a survival strategy ✨ Why this isn’t just a ‘church problem’—it’s showing up in your business, marriage, and relationships too The first step to breaking free so you can bring your whole self to both faith & business
This episode is for you if: ✔ You’ve ever held back in a faith setting, afraid of being “too much” or “not spiritual enough.” ✔ You’ve felt unseen, misunderstood, or like an outsider at church—even when no one is rejecting you. ✔ You struggle to fully show up in business, relationships, or even prayer because part of you still fears being fully known. ✔ You’re ready to stop shrinking, striving, or second-guessing yourself in spaces God has called you to.
The truth? You weren’t meant to fit in—you were meant to lead. But healing is what allows you to step into your calling with confidence and peace.

Let’s break free together. 💖
