    Don’t Abandon Yourself Now | When Healing Opens Something New

    You had the breakthrough.You felt God move.You released something you’ve been carrying. But what happens after the moment? In this episode of Permission to Leap Radio, we talk about the part of healing that doesn’t always get discussed: integration. Because sometimes the hardest part isn’t opening up—it’s learning how to stay open. It’s resisting the urge to go back to old patterns, old survival strategies, and old versions of ourselves simply because they feel familiar. After a powerful encounter with God, your next step isn’t to rush forward. It’s to tend to what was revealed. Together, we’ll explore: 🌿 Why we often feel the pull to return to what we’ve outgrown🌿 How your mind and body respond when something shifts🌿 The difference between a breakthrough moment and a transformed life🌿 How to create space for healing to deepen instead of disappear You didn’t imagine what God revealed.You don’t have to abandon the version of you that finally felt safe enough to be seen. This is your reminder: Don’t rush past what God just touched. Tend to it. Take a breath. Stay present. And give yourself permission to leap.

    What Happened to You Is Not Who You Are

    Have you ever looked at your past and started defining yourself by what happened to you? Maybe rejection became “I’m unwanted.” Maybe failure became “I’m not enough.” Maybe someone else’s words became the voice you now use against yourself. In this episode of Mother, Heal Thyself on the Zig Zag Leap, we’re going deeper into the connection between shame and identity. Because shame doesn’t just remind us of painful moments—it tries to turn those moments into labels. We’ll talk about how to separate your identity from your experiences, how survival patterns can become limiting beliefs, and how God’s truth restores the parts of you that were shaped by hurt. You are not your trauma. You are not your mistakes. You are not the names people called you. What happened to you matters. But it does not get to define you. Through Scripture, reflection, and a grounding practice, this episode will help you begin the process of returning to who you were created to be. Key themes: identity, shame, healing, rejection, trauma recovery, forgiveness, spiritual growth, renewing your mind Scripture focus: Genesis 1:27, Psalm 139, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Romans 12:2

    That Voice Isn’t Yours: Breaking the Agreement with Shame

    Have you ever replayed a mistake so many times that it started to feel like your identity? Have you carried words someone spoke over you long after they said them? Have you found yourself hiding parts of who you are because you’re afraid that if people really knew you, they wouldn’t choose you? In this episode of Mother, Heal Thyself on the Zig Zag Leap, we’re talking about shame—what it is, where it comes from, and how it keeps us trapped in cycles of hiding, self-condemnation, and fear. Shame tells us we are the problem. It convinces us that our failures, our wounds, and our past define us. But the gospel tells a different story. Through Scripture, reflection, and practical tools, we’ll explore the difference between guilt and shame, how shame entered the human story in Genesis, and how God’s response to our brokenness has always been restoration—not rejection. In this episode, you’ll learn: • The difference between guilt that leads to growth and shame that keeps you stuck• How to recognize the voices and beliefs you’ve agreed with that were never God’s truth• Why what happened to you is not the same as who you are• How to begin replacing shame-filled thoughts with the truth of God’s Word• A simple breath and reflection practice to help your mind, body, and spirit reconnect with safety and truth You don’t have to keep carrying the weight of who you used to be. You don’t have to hide. You don’t have to live under the condemnation of your past. The voice of shame is loud—but it isn’t the voice of God. This episode is the beginning of our Free From Shame series, a journey exploring how the gospel redeems our past, restores our identity, and frees us to live as people who are loved, chosen, and redeemed.
