According to today's guest, Restoration & Confidence Coach Tami Marie , grief is something we don't do well. We all experience it in various forms through a significant loss in our life. Loss of a loved one, loss of a dream or identity. But instead of learning from it, and thriving through it, we try to sweep it under the rug because, well, other people have it worse, or, especially as Christi...

Let's look at why we need to be embracing our emotions...the truth that we were made for happiness...and why vulnerability really is a critical component of co...

What does God really ask from us? How can we really please Him? What do we do when we can't find evidence in our life to prove that God is who He says He is? How do we move forward when we don't have answers? How long are we supposed to wait for a breakthrough? Who, or what, are we really trusting? Can we really ever know it all? Is control an illusion? In this episode, I answer these ques...

We have been sold a lot of lies but one of the biggest is that we can fix ourselves and our lives.  If we just think hard enough, and know enough, and learn more, we can get rid of everything that is wrong in our life and change everything inside ourselves that we don't like. Right?! And since we think that's true, we feel an almost unstoppable urge to identify, label, judge, diagnose, and fi...

Have you studied the doctrine of the Imago Die? Do you know what it really means that you are made in God's image?  In this episode, I unpack the unseen qualities that humans have that make us "like God." Not equal, but similar, in nature, and how they point us toward both our purpose and our "whole self."  As so many people search for purpose and seek to live "authentically," the doctri...

A first look at the question, "Should Christian women trust themselves?" and if so, how? In regards to what?  Do you find yourself doubting if you have what it takes? Maybe getting lost in too many good options or paralyzed by the opinions of others? Even naturally confident women can lose their self-trust if they make a big mistake. There is a sweet combination of trusting God and trusting y...

Does any of this sound like you... - I can't rest because I'm too busy - God is only happy with me when I'm doing things for Him - I have a hard time believing God can handle the things that are concerning me in my life, business, relationships, and family - When I achieve ... I will rest - I need to know or learn .... before I can relax - When I do take a break or practice self-care I still feel...

In this episode, Rebekah explores Biblical Repentance and its power to do what we simply can not. No matter how hard we try to find a root cause, think through an issue, change our mindset, learn a new way of being, focus on self-care ... sometimes, what we need to do bring about the change we desire to is simply repent.  Is confession a part of your life on a regular basis? It should be. It'...

Do you struggle to pray consistently? Do you feel like your prayers are powerless, bouncing off the ceiling, or kind of habitual? If what we are told in John is true at all (John 14:13-14 Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it) we should all be praying, all the time... and excited to do so!  Yet...

So, we all know (or at least often hear) that obedience honors God and leads to blessings. But did you also know that obedience fortifies our inner strength and peace in various ways? In this episode, Rebekah hits on all the things you are thinking: Why is obedience so hard in certain areas? Why does God even really care about things like who I sleep with, if I tithe, and the attitude of my heart?...

Women tend to fall into one of two categories. They over-evaluate their gifts and abilities (leading to a life of self-reliance, subject to a crash of confidence at any time) or they under-evaluate their gifts and abilities (which leads to a life of insecurity). Neither of these is Biblical confidence. If we want to be free to rightly feel good about ourselves (a disposition that allows us to live...

Society has taught us that our confidence (sense of worth) is found in what we look like and our list of accomplishments. Or maybe, if we try hard, we can just change our "mindset" enough to change how we feel about ourselves.  Where is confidence really found and what does it actually FEEL LIKE inside of us? Is it a lack of all fear? No. Is it a lack of all insecurity? No. It is a feeling of...

A lot of people think that their circumstances are creating their feelings. Or, that if they could just change their circumstances, they could change their life. However, modern self-help, psychology, and coaching have all embraced the TRUTH (yes, Truth, because it's God's design and idea) that it is our THOUGHTS that largely create our life and our happiness.  In this first two-part episode,...

Ahhh approval. Isn't it nice? We all want it. We can say we don't, but we do. We try to gain it in a million ways, but what if the only real way to get it is highly counter-intuitive and not something that we can explain, only feel. Rebekah leads you down a train of thought to help you see (or recall) the reality that we need (approval) and that it only comes from one place.  Website Home Boo...
