What if the key to true success is embracing your vulnerabilities? In today’s episode of the Overcomers Podcast, the tables turn—Lauren Chandler interviews me about a season of deep transformation. We’ll unpack my journey from external success in ministry to confronting the internal struggles I couldn’t ignore anymore. I was emotionally stuck, overwhelmed, and hiding behind humor and problem-solving. That’s when I decided to get help and began working with a counselor who challenged my approach to life.
The road wasn’t easy. Jack, the counselor, pushed me to face uncomfortable truths, confront my defense mechanisms, and dive deep into the emotional wounds I’d been avoiding. This wasn’t about fixing problems—it was about learning to engage in real relationships, especially with my family. That shift from trying to fix everything to truly connecting has changed the way I minister and live.
This conversation is about embracing change, having the courage to grow, and facing the most guarded parts of your inner self. If you’ve been feeling stuck, or know there’s more growth ahead, I hope you find strength and Christian courage from this conversation.
