    The Cafe with Carolyn | Healing, sisterhood, and real talk

    Healing, sisterhood, and real talk — straight from the heart. Are you letting past wounds define your story? Hey Girl, let's talk! In this episode of The Cafe with Carolyn, I dive into how important it is for us to maintain our character even after the "dealth" of a friendship. I heard the most amazing story about David and Jonathan, and it ties in beautifully with a real topic about integrity and character. I talk about not letting a bad season, give you a bad filter, and why we should embrace the Hope we have in Jesus. Next, I encourage you to age gracefully, aging is a blessing. Im thirty and loving it! I also unpack, the hard truth of spotting mean girl tendencies within ourselves and others. Women supporting Women isn't just a hashtag, it's a way we can advance The Kingdom. When we don't acknowledge our wounds, infection can set in, and things can get pretty bad. In this episode I talk about the importance of acknowedging your wounds, and allowing God to divinely dress them, so that healing can take place.If you're done with drama, tired of hurting, this is for you. For the woman ready to heal, seeking connection and community with women who are healing like you, press play! We have work to do.  takeaways We have victory through Christ regardless of current circumstances. True friendship is characterized by integrity and healthy commitment. Healing emotional wounds is essential for healthy relationships. Aging is a blessing and should be embraced with gratitude. Our words and attitudes significantly impact our relationships, and the filter through which we see life This isn't just a clever Call To Action, but an assignment to stand up for yourself, so we can stand up for each other.

    From Worship to a Win | My Benign Diagnosis

    Hi Cafe Crew! The months of June and July were so challenging, but here I am entering the clear of August extremely grateful. I'll be honest and say I am not the most patient person in the world, and waiting for results, or even sometimesTHAT text can make me super anxious, can you relate? Sit back and sip ☕️ as I reveal how God taught me the most beautiful lesson about waiting and victory, as I was waiting for my results to come in from a biopsy. This went from a total inner-self journey to a physical health situation, but God. ❤️ Make sure to subscribe to The Cafe With Carolyn on Apple Podcasts or Spotify and leave me a review, to support the show! ❤️ I hope to keep serving up good topics, so share some topics you would like to hear at The Cafe! #HealthisWealth #God #JesusisKing #Breastcancerawareness #love #mentalhealthpodcast #selfcare #cafe #faith #instagood #faithoverfear #TheCafeWithCarolyn #GoldMedalWins #Nottooyoung
