    You Have Spiritual Gifts You Don't Even Know About with Kira and Shalese

    What if you have spiritual gifts you've been using your entire life without even realizing it? In this episode of The Joyful Path Podcast, Kira and Shalese explore spiritual gifts, intuition, and personal revelation. We share some incredible personal experiences of following God's promptings, recognizing gifts in ourselves and others, and learning to trust divine guidance. We talk about the many ways spiritual gifts can show up in everyday life, from clear knowing and spiritual sight to empathy, discernment, and the ability to recognize what others need. Some gifts come naturally, while others are waiting to be discovered and developed. One of our favorite reminders from this conversation is that our gifts aren't just for us. They're meant to bless the people around us. Sometimes the smallest prompting to reach out, speak up, or help someone can make a difference we may never fully understand. We also discuss how prayer, meditation, and stillness can help us become more aware of God's guidance, overcome fear, and develop the gifts we've been given. Here's a little challenge for this week: Ask God, "What gifts have You given me, and how can I use them to bless someone else?" We hope this conversation encourages you to recognize your own gifts, see the gifts in others, and have the courage to act on those little promptings that can lead to something beautiful.

    Take the Step, Ask for Help, and Watch Joy Expand with Kira and Shalese

    Sometimes the biggest change in our lives begins with one small shift in perspective. In this episode, Kira and Shalese talk about choosing faith over fear, trusting God with the next step, and finding more ease and joy—even when life feels uncertain or overwhelming. Through personal stories and honest conversation, they explore what happens when we stop trying to carry everything alone and become open to divine guidance, unexpected help, and perfectly timed miracles. They also discuss moving through the fear of judgment, healing the beliefs and stories that keep us stuck, asking for help, and learning to recognize God’s hand in the details of our lives. Hard experiences will still come, but they don’t have to be wasted. When we become curious about what they can teach us, practice gratitude, and focus on the good that is already appearing, our capacity for joy begins to grow. As Kira shares throughout this episode: “Everything you’re afraid of is afraid of Jesus.” What is one small step you feel prompted to take? Share it in the comments! We would also love to hear about a time when God provided unexpected help or worked out the details in a way you couldn’t have planned.

    Rooted in Love: Creating Deeper Connection in Marriage | Kyson Kidd & Shalese Bruce

    The patterns that create distance in marriage often run much deeper than the conflict we see on the surface. Honest conversations rooted in vulnerability, accountability, and love can help couples uncover those deeper patterns and begin creating genuine connection. In this episode of The Joyful Path Podcast, we sit down with Kyson Kidd, a coach who has spent years helping men uncover and heal the deeper roots beneath pornography use, shame, people-pleasing, emotional disconnection, and other protective patterns. Kyson shares his own journey from living emotionally shut down and trying to change through willpower to experiencing genuine healing through self-awareness, vulnerability, love, and Jesus Christ. He also shares how these principles transformed his marriage, helping him and his wife move beyond blame and control into greater trust, honesty, connection, and joy. We also introduce Rooted in Love Marriage Coaching, co-created by Kyson and Shalese. Together, they help individuals and couples create emotional safety, communicate authentically, work through protective patterns, and cultivate greater intimacy and oneness in marriage. In this episode, we talk about: • Looking beneath unwanted behaviors instead of responding with shame • The emotional roots that can contribute to pornography use • Why lasting healing requires more than willpower • Recognizing people-pleasing, control, and codependent patterns • Taking accountability without blaming yourself • Communicating difficult feelings with vulnerability • Understanding how marriage can mirror our deepest wounds • Allowing triggers to become invitations for healing • Creating emotional safety for honest conversations • Building trust within yourself and your marriage • Inviting Jesus Christ into the healing process • Moving from disconnection toward intimacy, playfulness, and oneness Real transformation begins when we become willing to ask, “What’s underneath this?” As we approach ourselves and one another with curiosity, compassion, accountability, and love, even the hardest parts of marriage can become opportunities for deeper healing and connection.

    What If God Never Asked You to Be Realistic? Shatter Your Ceilings & Create the Impossible With Him | Kira Ritchie

    In this episode of The Joyful Path Podcast, we sit down with Kira Ritchie, founder of the Go Bigger movement and creator of Studio Go, for a powerful conversation about vision, faith, identity, and what becomes possible when we stop playing small. Kira shares how one of the lowest seasons of her life caused her to lose sight of her vision—and how God helped her begin to see beyond her circumstances again. What started as a personal journey became a much bigger question: What if the ceilings we see in our lives aren't actually real? We talk about the limiting beliefs, fear, unbelief, and false humility that can keep us from stepping into the gifts and desires God has placed within us. Kira challenges the idea that wanting more is inherently selfish and offers a different perspective: What if expanding your gifts, resources, influence, and capacity allows you to do even more good in the world? We also explore what it means to stop obsessing over how our dreams will happen and instead bring our desires to God, take inspired action, and allow Him to help us create something bigger than we could create alone. In this episode, we talk about: • Why having a vision can change the way you experience difficult circumstances • Recognizing the invisible “ceilings” and limiting beliefs in your life • Why Kira says “thinking small is selfish” • The difference between false humility and truly knowing your divine worth • Letting go of the how and learning to surrender • Co-creating with God instead of trying to control every step • Why growth doesn't always have to come through struggle • Creating a vision for yourself and your family • Asking for help and allowing other people to use their gifts • The role of gratitude, visualization, and intentional thought • How Kira created Studio Go to help people keep their vision alive • Learning to receive, expand, and believe that more may be possible Kira reminds us that going bigger doesn't mean pushing harder. Sometimes it means challenging the ceiling, asking a better question, opening ourselves to help, and trusting that God has resources available that we can't yet see. Maybe the question isn't, “How am I going to make this happen?” Maybe it's: “God, what could we create together?” ✨ Learn more about Kira Ritchie, Studio Go, and the Go Bigger movement: 🎧 The Joyful Path Podcast Join us as we explore faith, growth, healing, identity, and what it looks like to create a life filled with deeper, lasting joy.

    Trapped Emotions, Forgiveness & Healing Through Christ | Jaclyn Taylor

    What if the emotions, experiences, and hurts we carry are affecting us in ways we don’t even realize? In this episode of The Joyful Path Podcast, we sit down with Jaclyn Taylor to talk about trapped emotions, forgiveness, healing, discernment, and learning to turn to Christ through every layer of the healing process. Jaclyn shares the story behind her book and how her experiences with foot zoning, anatomy, emotions, and prayer led her to create a resource designed to help people uncover deeper emotional patterns. We explore the connection she sees between the body and emotions, why forgiveness can come in layers, and how our triggers can become invitations to heal rather than something to fear. In this conversation, we talk about: • Trapped emotions and how they may show up in our lives • Why forgiveness can be so freeing • Taking responsibility without carrying shame • Learning to forgive yourself • How Jaclyn uses her book to identify and release emotions • Asking God to reveal what still needs healing • Seeing triggers as opportunities for deeper healing • Learning to recognize and trust personal revelation • The importance of spiritual discernment • The Armor of God and spiritual protection • Navigating empathic and spiritual gifts • Why Jesus Christ is at the center of true healing One of the beautiful reminders from this conversation is that healing doesn’t always happen all at once. Sometimes it comes in layers. As we become ready for the next layer, God can lovingly show us what is still asking to be healed. Ultimately, Jaclyn brings it back to one simple truth: Turn to God in every situation. That’s where the joy comes.

    Healing Is Always Possible | Jocelyn Peterson

    In this episode of The Joyful Path Podcast, we sit down with author and educator Jocelyn Peterson for a beautiful conversation about healing, spiritual awakening, revelation, and learning to walk with Christ in a deeper way. Jocelyn shares her powerful journey through severe physical illness and a season that challenged nearly everything she thought she knew. What began as a search for physical healing eventually became a profound spiritual journey—one that taught her how to hear God differently, trust the revelation she was receiving, let go of fear, and open herself to greater healing and connection with Christ. We talk about what it means to part the veil, embrace our spiritual gifts, move through fear with faith, and shift from constantly trying to do more to learning how to receive what God is already offering us. Jocelyn also shares her perspective on repentance as healing, the divine feminine, Heavenly Mother, generational healing, spiritual authority, and the courage it takes to follow God when He leads us somewhere unfamiliar. One of our favorite reminders from this conversation: Healing is always possible. No matter how impossible a physical condition, relationship, emotional wound, or life circumstance may feel, there is always hope. Christ meets us in the middle of our pain—and we can experience deep joy even while life is still hard. In this episode: • Jocelyn’s journey from physical illness to spiritual healing • Learning to recognize personal revelation • Spiritual awakenings and synchronicities • Parting the veil and communing with God • Receiving instead of constantly doing • Overcoming fear around spiritual gifts • Repentance, the Atonement & generational healing • The divine feminine and our identity as daughters of God • Letting go of expectations and trusting Christ • Finding joy and peace in the middle of sorrow • Why healing is always possible Jocelyn is the author of Seeds of Hope and All Things in One: Reuniting Religion with the Woman in the Wilderness. She is also the creator of Reclaiming the Woman in the Wilderness, a women’s event centered around healing, spiritual gifts, connection, and stepping more fully into our divine identity.
