When life feels lonely, messy, or uncertain, it can be easy to wonder if God still sees you. In this heartfelt conversation with coach and seminary teacher Anna Stice, we explore one of the most powerful stories of faith in the New Testament: the woman with the issue of blood. For twelve years, she suffered physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Isolated from others and out of options, she made one courageous decision: she reached for the Savior. She believed that even touching the hem of His garment would be enough. Her story reminds us that Christ not only heals, He notices. He sees every effort, every tear, and every quiet act of faith. In this episode, we talk about what it means to keep reaching for Jesus when life doesn't look the way you hoped. We discuss perfectionism, shame, agency, motherhood, and the peace that comes from trusting Heavenly Father with the people we love most. If you've ever wondered whether you've done enough as a mom, or if you've carried guilt over your adult child's choices, this conversation will remind you that your worth has never been determined by someone else's agency. You'll also hear why we don't have to wait until we're "good enough" to come to Christ, how small daily acts of faith strengthen us, and why understanding our divine worth changes everything. The Savior doesn't ask us to be perfect. He simply invites us to keep reaching. In this episode you'll learn: Why the woman with the issue of blood is such a powerful example of courageous faithHow Christ sees and knows you personally, even when you feel forgottenWhy perfectionism keeps us stuck and how the Savior invites us to let it goHow to stop carrying responsibility for your adult child's choicesWhat it means to trust God's timing and His plan for your familyPractical ways to stay connected to the Savior during difficult seasonsWhy your worth has never changed, no matter what your life looks like todayIf you're carrying worry, guilt, or fear about someone you love, this episode will leave you feeling hopeful, seen, and reminded that you are never reaching for the Savior alone.
