Everything Between with Tori Dixon

Podcast Description (Spotify): Season One comes to a close with a conversation that reaches beneath the surface and into the sacred space God never overlooks—the heart. In this finale episode, The Honest Heart God Honors, we explore the power of authenticity before God and what it truly means to be seen, known, and still loved. Too often, we’ve been taught to present perfection, polish our prayers...

What happens when grief doesn’t just visit your thoughts—but takes up residence in your body? In this episode, we explore the reality that grief is not only emotional—it is physiological. It lives in your chest as heaviness, in your throat as tightness, in your nervous system as fatigue, tension, and disorientation. Science reminds us that grief is not something to “get over,” but a biological pro...

Faith isn’t always soft or peaceful. Sometimes faith looks like surviving the day. In this episode, we talk about the kind of faith you need when life turns into a fight—when grief is heavy, your mind is tired, and the prayers don’t seem to move anything. Faith for the fight isn’t polished spirituality. It’s the quiet, stubborn decision to keep showing up, keep believing, and keep standing when ev...

“You’re too much.” Too loud. Too passionate. Too emotional. Too intense. Too honest. Many of us have heard it before. But what if the problem was never that you were too much—only that the spaces around you didn’t have the capacity to hold who you are? In this episode of Everything Between, we explore what happens when your personality, passion, grief, faith, or voice exceeds the limits others try...

How often do we apologize for things that don’t actually require an apology? “I’m sorry I feel this way.” “Sorry for being emotional.” “Sorry if that bothered you.” Somewhere along the way, many of us learned to apologize for our humanity—for having feelings, for needing space, for grieving, for setting boundaries, for not always being okay. In this episode, we explore why people feel the need to...

Good Grief: How Something Good Can Feel Bad Sometimes the promotion hurts. Sometimes the answered prayer feels heavy. Sometimes the blessing costs more than we expected. In this episode, Tori Dixon explores the emotional paradox of growth, transition, and answered prayers. Why does something good still feel like grief? What happens in the nervous system when we outgrow old versions of ourselves? A...

Does grief mean your faith is weak? In this episode of Everything Between, Tori Dixon challenges the idea that strong believers don’t struggle with sorrow. As a therapist, minister, and grief expert, she unpacks what it truly means that Jesus was “acquainted with grief” — and why performing faith can quietly suffocate healing. If you’re navigating loss, transition, church hurt, or silent disappoin...

In this first episode of Everything Between, Tori Dixon tells a simple story about a ham that reveals something profound: many of us are still living by emotional rules we inherited—but no longer need. Through storytelling, Scripture, and reflection, this episode explores emotional inheritance, survival patterns, and why God is far more comfortable with your tears than you’ve been taught. It didn’...

In this first episode, I’m introducing myself—Tori Dixon, therapist, minister, and former mortician—and sharing why Everything Between exists. This podcast explores mental health, faith, grief, relationships, intimacy, emotional labor, and healing in the spaces we live in but rarely name—the overlap between faith and feelings, grief and gratitude, love and exhaustion, prayer and process. This isn’...

Contending with the Middle is a mini-promo from Everything Between—a pause in the rush to arrive, and an honest reckoning with the space most of us actually live in. This episode sits with the tension of not yet and no longer—when faith feels stretched, identity feels unsettled, and clarity hasn’t caught up to obedience. It’s a conversation for those navigating transitions, unresolved grief, unans...
