This episode is a reintroduction — not a rebrand.

A personal testimony of growing up in cycles of trauma, becoming a cycle breaker, and discovering how God brings purpose from places the world dismisses.

This is a Nazareth story — one of healing, re-regulation, faith, and the truth that change is possible.

If you’re constantly multitasking, staying in control, and still wondering why your focus feels scattered, this episode is for you.

In this conversation, we explore how overstimulation overloads the nervous system, why multitasking fragments attention instead of improving it, and how control often develops as a survival strategy rather than a personality trait. You’ll learn what’s happening in your brain under chronic stress, why pushing harder backfires, and what actually helps restore clarity.

Blending accessible neuroscience, real-life examples, and compassionate insight, this episode offers practical ways to work with your nervous system instead of against it.. Without shame, hustle, or forcing productivity.

David was anointed long before he was crowned. First as a shepherd, not a king.

This episode explores the hidden years of the Anointed Shepherd: faithful, unseen, and still trusting God.

In this Wait Training episode, Erica walks through the fifteen unKing-like years between David’s anointing and his appointment, offering a grounded, faith-forming reflection on what it means to remain obedient when the promise has been spoken but fulfillment feels far away.

From caves to conflict, worship to waiting, David’s story reminds us that faith isn’t formed on the throne..it’s forged in the hidden years.

If you’re faithful but unseen, obedient but discouraged, or trusting God while life feels harder instead of clearer, this episode will meet you right where you are.

Your waiting is not wasted. God is still working.

What do you do when the battle is real — and God hasn’t changed the circumstances yet?

In this Bible Rx episode, we reflect on Psalm 27, a passage written from the middle of tension, not the end of the story. David doesn’t deny fear, opposition, or uncertainty — instead, he anchors his heart in God’s presence while he waits.

This episode is an invitation to stop rushing outcomes and learn how to remain confident, connected, and grounded in God when answers feel delayed. Psalm 27 reminds us that waiting is not passive when trust is active.
