Are you wanting to know how to grow your relationship with God? Maybe you’ve been stuck in the new age and you’re feeling something is off with the spiritual gurus and self-help world? Or, maybe, like me, you’ve been saved by God but you’re struggling in how to live your life day to day?
Welcome to Like the Dove podcast, hosted by Eliza Ceci - a women’s life coach, business owner, blogger, ex new ager, and firmly rooted Christian. After almost a decade of being completely immersed in and teaching new age practices, God opened my eyes and heart to follow Him. This meant giving up my business and all of the ways I was living for my own ambitions and now I’ve re-built my life living for God.
This podcast focuses on supporting the ups and downs you experience as an ex new ager and new Christian. Whether you’re newly saved, Christian-curious, or fully immersed in your walk with God, my intention for this podcast is to support you in growing your trust and love for Jesus.
We talk about re-building our lives with Jesus as your cornerstone, entrepreneurship, loving God + studying the Bible, and the journey of what it’s like to listen to the Holy Spirit.
My intention with this podcast is that you’ll feel less alone as God does a good thing transforming your heart from one of stone to one of flesh. (Ezekiel 11:19)
Topics we explore often:
- unhealthy family dynamics, mother wound / father wound
- studying the Bible
- scripture memory
- common traps of the new age and how to break free
- what life looks like as a new Christian being obedient to God
- lots of book recommendations and resources for Christian women
- stories and personal reflections to help you feel less alone
- testimonies of ex new agers
- encouragement from Eliza who’s a life coach with 15 years experience supporting women through huge life transitions

[covered in prayer] Praying for Unsaved Friends and Loved Ones
In this episode, let's pray for our unsaved friends, family, and loved ones. Sometimes the Holy Spirit really presses on me to stop, drop, and pray for someone specific. I'm sure I'm not alone in this. So, let's pray together for the poeple in our lives who don't know the peace, joy, and grace of Jesus (yet). Let's lift our prayers up to the Lord today and focus on the miracle of salvation.
The blog post I mentioned with the scripture to pray over your unsaved loved ones is here: https://www.elizaceci.com/blog/praying-for-unbelievers

giving up comforts for a meaningful Lent
In this episode we talk about what will feel meaningful to give up this Lent, how to find the right balance for yourself (not under or over-doing your commitments), and ideas and encouragements for how to let go of comforts to cultivate a more good and holy posture toward the Lord this season. I hope it blesses you.

[covered in prayer] Prayer for Spiritual Protection + Coming into Agreement with Your Identity in Christ
We're starting a new thing on the pod. At the beginning of every month we'll have one episode dedicated to praying over you and your month. This month I pray for your covering and protection from spiritual warfare, for your Lent season to be blessed, and for you to come into agreement with who you are through your identity in Christ. I hope this prayer supports you. If you know someone in your life who could use this prayer please pass it along to them. Scripture references: Psalm 91 and 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24

Truly a Godly woman
Eliza has this amazing way that feels like she is speaking directly to you when listening to her podcast. She is clear, practical, and relatable. I take little notes with her nuggets of wisdom listening. Thank you!!!
encouraging!
Just finished the episode on leaving social media! So needed for everyone! I used to do my business on social media and I also recently left it, January 2023.
It’s been so freeing, and I definitely have more time to be more present with my family and devote my time to things that truly matter.
Thank you for being open about your story, I’m sure it will encourage other listeners to do the same.
Elizabeth
