Hello My Refreshed Sister❤️ If you've been following me for sometime now, you know that my heart is to release episodes that are God-breathed.

I pray you leave this episode encouraged the more to follow God's leadin...

We can hold ourselves captive to our past mistakes and shortcomings, and not give ourselves permission to receive the good that God wants to bless us with because we feel unworthy of it. So we sabotage relationships, jobs, opportunities…you name it. We punish ourselves by pushing the good we don’t feel we deserve, and settle for less. My sister, I want to let you know that your past does not quali...

I remember the place of feeling angry and frustrated, yet confused if it was ok to show it. The feeling of being scared but afraid to say it. I was torn between the ache of my feelings and how to respond in a way that still pleased God. The question that burned in my heart was, "God how do I be?" God so lovingly heard my heart without a word leaving my lips and sent an older lady to me to say, "Go...

I GIVE UP! I give up the weight of how I want things to look and go, for what God wants! There's only so far we can go with so much weight. What do you believe you need to surrender in order to move forward in who God is calling you to become? There is something(s) we have to give up to go forward. Let's talk about it!

When we daily decide to break up with the old version of ourselves, we can accept who we were always designed to be. Check out this week's episode as we continue to breakdown what we need to move forward.

You've been honest. You've addressed the pain. You've allowed yourself to feel. You've allowed God and His Truth into the sacred place of your heart. It's time to move forward. God's best for you is ahead of you.❤️

A Safe Space Form You have permission to ask questions.   I understand that your past may have taught you to keep your questions to yourself to avoid belittlement, offense, weird looks or an image of weakness…   …but my sister, in order to become what God already knows about us, we must tap into wisdom outside of our own understanding.   While there is an internal work and healing we are accountab...

A Safe Space Form How are you creating a safe space in your relationships, in your home, your job, or the ministry God has called you to?   Last week we covered some reasons why it's hard to be honest about your feelings, your desires, the need for help, etc...and ways we can begin to move out of that place.   This week we are discussing ways to create a safe space for others to be honest.   One m...

Space - Questionnaire Are you being honest with yourself, with God, and others?

Creating A Safe Space - Form   A safe space is required to recover and heal.❤️‍🩹   You must feel safe to share, ask, cry, get it wrong at times, and just be where you are without the guilt, shame or judgment for being there.   When our safety is threatened, we are distracted from the rest and healing that God so wants us to experience.   I believe God has called me to create a safe space for you...

He sees your progress and He sees you working the W...

I recently asked God to show me my heart in a particular area. What He revealed I did not like. To be completely honest, I felt a small sense of shame. 😞 I confessed and repented to God...and you know what His response was? The engulfing of His Loving arms! I felt an extreme wave of love consume me in a place where I felt unworthy.😭 He uncovered something in me so He could heal me with His love....

How do we begin to free the little girl in us?   Somewhere along the way, you were convinced that who you were brought embarrassment, punishment, and rejection. And so, you rejected who you were and began to hide.   When I took the hand of God to pull me out of hiding, He clearly instructed me, "You must embrace and accept her again."   When we choose to love the little girl in us, we are choosing...

As a little girl you may have experienced being shamed for doing something wrong, punished for voicing your feelings, or feeling unseen unless you performed well.   While you aged, the little girl who learned how to hide herself didn't.   She convinces you that you have to be perfect in order to be loved, to be quiet in order to stay safe, and to perform in order to be validated. It's time to free...

Hey Refreshed Sister! I'm BACK!!!   I can't wait to share all that God has been doing in my soul and how I am being refreshed by Him.   Over the summer break I have been taking "gratitude walks" with my oldest son. While it was meant to be a creative way to get him to see how much he has to be grateful for, it turned into walks of conversations that brought us closer together.   How is your walk w...

Have you been singing the same worry song in your soul?   God wants you to sing to Him a new song, but it requires you getting rid of the old song you have on repeat in your heart and soul. What if...I can't...I'll never...This is too much...If only...   Choose today to sing a new song! God is! God can! God will!

So often we look for peace in places outside of us...the calm of an ocean, a quiet and clean house, check marks off our to do list...but true peace resides in the God within us. In this episode, I have a conversation with Dr. PBJ about the signs we avoid when we are no longer in rest, how disrupt cycles of burnout, and that true peace starts with you!

Anxiety can feel like a giant in our soul. There are things that we have wrestled with for years that cause us to become anxious and to see our lives anxiety-free can seem impossible. But with God, there is no giant too big, no wall too high or gate too protected, for Him to tear down and win the battle for you! Listen to this episode to be encouraged and reminded that God has given you the victor...

Instead of normalizing and submitting to the bouts of anxiety, we can began to take control by slowing down and looking at what is triggering our anxiety. There's a root behind the anxiousness and it starts with our thoughts. Let's breathe, pause and ask Holy Spirit to help us pinpoint what areas in our lives we need to shift our perspective! I will also give you 3 simple identifiers to help you m...

Do you find yourself battling worries and trying to keep the anxiety in your soul at bay? Sometimes life can seem overwhelming and we can tend to hold it in our souls. Our souls were never meant to carry heavy weights such as anxiety. This week I want to refresh your souls by first coming to an honest place about your worries.
