You love God. You're trying. And you still feel angry, anxious, and stuck. You're not broken. But something is driving your patterns, and until you understand what it is, you can keep doing all the right things and stay exactly where you are. Made Whole is a faith-based podcast for Christian women who are tired of going through the motions, done with the overwhelm, and ready to finally get to the root of what's keeping them stuck. If you've struggled with anger, anxiety, depression, loneliness, or the feeling that you're never enough, you have found your place. Each episode brings together Biblical wisdom and psychology to help you understand why you feel and react the way you do, and gives you real, practical tools to actually change it. This isn't surface level inspiration. This is where the path to healing begins. Hi, I'm Brittany. Former licensed marriage and family therapist, pastor, and founder of Made Whole. I spent years battling depression, anger, and the deep belief that I would never be enough. God used the hardest seasons of my life, including a miscarriage that changed everything, to bring me to firm ground. I built Made Whole for the woman I used to be. If you're ready to move from feeling stuck to feeling free, from overwhelmed to whole, grab your coffee and let's go.

    You keep making the same decisions and wondering why you never end up where you want to be. This episode gives you one simple question that changes that. You've built the vision.
