Burnt Out and Spiritually Empty: A Real Journey from Trauma to True Healing [ Part 1: with Ondrea Lynn]

Hi Sweet friend,

Today’s episode is tender, powerful, and real. If you’re a nurse or healthcare professional who has been:

• Spiritually curious but still searching
• Carrying unhealed trauma beneath a capable exterior
• Exploring “spiritual things” but feeling unsettled or empty
• Or quietly wondering if there’s more to faith than what you’ve experienced

This conversation is for you.

My guest today, Ondrea Lynn, courageously shares her story — one marked by sexual and emotional trauma, deep spiritual hunger, and a long road of searching for healing in all the wrong places. Like so many helpers, she wanted relief. She wanted peace. She wanted freedom from the pain she carried in her body and soul.

But the paths she took — including occult practices and counterfeit spiritual solutions — only left her more bound… until she encountered Jesus. Ondrea is a speaker and author of the book, ‘The Christian Women’s Weight Loss Victory Plan (How to Defeat the Enemy and Transform Your Body).’ Ondrea has helped thousands of women reach their personal health and wellness goals and improve their physical and nutritional health, as well as their emotional and spiritual well-being. She is a graduate of the Institute of Integrated Nutrition, affiliated with the Teachers College at Columbia University, some of her certifications include, NASM fitness trainer, behavioral change specialist, and self-sabotage coach. Her efforts in health & wellness have been featured in an article and on the cover of Woman’s World Magazine. She appeared as a personal trainer on Lifetime television’s Mission Makeover. Her ‘Christian Women’s Weight Loss’ podcast is currently ranking top 3% globally. Ondrea is passionate about helping Christian women lose weight and gain health so they can rise up in the Kingdom and take action on the assignment God has called them to do.

And as nurses, we are often exposed to suffering, death, and spiritual questions daily — yet we rarely have space to talk about our own souls. This episode gently invites you to pause and ask:

What am I actually seeking? And where am I going to find it?

Whether you’re listening for yourself, or because you know someone who needs this testimony, I pray this story meets you exactly where you are.

Shalom Shalom,

Xx, Shan
