You were never meant to heal alone. In this episode, I share some personal stories behind my own breakthrough moments, from the first time I admitted I couldn’t cut contact, to the retreat where I experienced safety and compassion for the first time, to the women who held space for me when she was convinced I had to take my secrets to my grave.

I also reveal what I'm seeing inside my own group coaching community: the “me too” moments, the relief from isolation, the courage that rises when women hear their own thoughts mirrored in someone else’s story, and the unique healing that happens only in safe, faith-filled connection.

You’ll learn: ✨ Why you cannot read the label from inside the jar ✨ The brain science behind safety and co-regulation ✨ How God uses other women as mirrors and midwives for breakthrough ✨ The lies the enemy uses to isolate you — and the truth that sets you free ✨ Why healing accelerates in community (and why trying alone keeps you stuck)

💙 Plus, hear real testimonials from women inside Rooted in Joy who have found compassion, clarity, accountability, and a sisterhood they didn’t know they needed.

Sister, you’re not “too emotional” and you’re not a robot. God designed your body, brain, and heart to work together. In this episode, I teach a simple Christian & somatic approach to feeling your feelings without spiraling into old patterns. We’ll use The Model and The Domino Drill, parts-work in plain English (think Inside Out), and a handful of on-the-spot practices you can use today.

You’ll learn:

• Why emotions are messengers, not enemies, and how God meets you in them

• A Christian, embodied take on The Model + The Domino Drill to stop emotional spirals

• How to use parts-language (“Hi, loneliness”) to reduce intensity and increase compassion

• Quick somatic tools (sigh + anchor, orienting, etc.)
