    The Guilt-Free Way to Set Boundaries Without Feeling Like a “Bad Christian”

    Have you ever said “yes” when everything inside of you wanted to say “no”? Maybe it was helping out when you were already stretched thin, or agreeing to avoid letting someone down. That guilty tug you feel afterward isn’t proof you’re selfish - it’s often a sign you need healthier boundaries. In this episode, we’ll discuss how to set boundaries without guilt, how Jesus modeled them, and how they can actually strengthen your relationships instead of straining them.

    Is Your Nervous System Stuck in Survival Mode? Here’s How to Tell

    Do you ever feel like you’re moving through life on autopilot - exhausted, tense, or numb - and you can’t figure out why? You’re praying, showing up, doing all the “right” things, but your body still feels like it’s bracing for impact. That’s often what survival mode looks like - your nervous system stuck in protection mode long after the real threat has passed. In this episode, we’re going to talk about how to recognize the signs, why it’s not a faith failure, and how God wants to meet you right in the middle of it.

    The Bible Says, “Renew Your Mind," But How Do You Do That With Negative Thoughts?

    We’ve all heard it - “renew your mind.” It’s one of those phrases that sounds powerful on Sunday, but feels impossible on Monday when negative thoughts won’t quit. I know that cycle personally: waking up already discouraged, fighting fear before the day even starts, and wondering if I was broken because I couldn’t just “think positive.” What I had to learn is that renewing your mind isn’t about ignoring your thoughts or stuffing them down; it’s about inviting God into the process of noticing, naming, and replacing what isn’t true. That’s what we’re unpacking in this episode.

    Nobody Talks About THIS Part of the Healing Journey (But I Will)

    So often we think healing is supposed to feel light and happy, but the reality is that it can be messy, repetitive, and downright uncomfortable. The church doesn’t always give us language for this, and social media usually skips the hard parts, showing only the highlight reel of freedom. But real healing often means sitting in emotions that don’t feel good, practicing rhythms that feel too simple, and learning to honor your body as the place where God Himself dwells. In this conversation, we’ll talk about what healing actually looks like and why not feeling “good” doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong.

    The Fight Between Fear and Faith Isn’t About Strength—It’s About Safety

    Have you ever noticed how you can be praying, declaring truth, and reminding yourself of God’s promises, yet still feel fear sitting heavy in your chest? It’s easy to assume that means your faith is weak. But what if that fear isn’t failure, it’s simply your body’s way of saying, “I don’t feel safe right now”? In this episode, I'm unpacking how faith and fear can coexist, and why your nervous system often needs calm before your spirit can fully lean into trust.

    The Real Reason You Feel Anxious, Edgy, and Unmotivated Might Be Your Blood Sugar

    Ever had one of those days where you’re convinced you’re spiraling, only to realize hours later you haven’t had an actual meal? Maybe it’s not burnout or a character flaw - maybe it’s just that your body is running on fumes. The truth is, your mood, energy, and focus are all deeply tied to how (and when) you fuel yourself. In this episode, I'm breaking down how something as simple as blood sugar can shape your emotions and why even God built rhythms of eating and resting into the way we’re designed.

    You Can’t Pray Away a Dysregulated Nervous System—But You Can Heal With God

    I used to think peace was something I could force. If I just prayed harder, thought better, or pushed through, surely I’d feel normal again. But even in quiet rooms and calm moments, my body was buzzing. I couldn’t shake the edge, the restlessness, the sense that something was off. And for a while, I thought that meant I was the problem. But I’ve come to understand what felt like “too much” was actually my body asking for safety. In this episode, I'm talking about nervous system dysregulation, and why feeling overwhelmed doesn’t make you broken - it makes you a human who’s ready to heal.  Rooting for you, Jessica   Click here to get 30% off my Untangle Your Thoughts program today AND get access to my course Biblical Framework to Overcome Emotional Eating for FREE!
