  • The 1 Question To Ask Yourself that Can Help Heal Trauma - Better Than Trying Harder and Beating Yourself Up Inside
    Jan 1 2026

    If you are tired of beating yourself up inside for trying harder and harder to make traction toward your emotional and mental freedom but feel like you are simply going in circles and feeling defeated, you may be asking yourself, "What is Wrong with Me?"

    However, the problem isn't you! The problem is that you are asking yourself the wrong question, and assuming that the problem is somehow you. This leads to shame, frustration, and hamster wheel running that keeps you from making traction toward your healing. To heal, you need to ask a different question, and I'll tell you what that is in this episode. Listen in!

  • Why Can't I Relax, Even Though I'm Safe?
    Dec 25 2025

    If slowing down makes you feel more anxious instead of calm, this episode explains why. You'll learn how trauma trains the nervous system to equate safety with staying busy, in control, or on guard - and why true safety isn't something you need to seek after, but something your body experiences.

    In this episode, we explore how to orient your nervous system to the present moment, why rest can feel unsafe after trauma, and how a felt sense of safety allows real healing to begin. This gentle, faith-integrated conversation helps you understand why your body struggles to relax -- and what it actually needs instead.
