The Freely YOU Podcast

We often think doubt means we're on the wrong path — but what if it actually means we're growing? In this episode, we're talking about what it really means to experience doubt, how to work with it instead of fighting it, and how to keep moving forward even when things feel unclear. You'll walk away with a new perspective on doubt, practical tools to reduce its grip, and the reminder that uncertain...

Do you keep telling yourself 'it will get better' or 'it's actually not that bad' while simultaneously debating if that is actually true? There is a big difference in having a bad day or week vs. constantly questioning if this is all that is meant for you.  In this episode, we're diving into the subtle (and not-so-subtle) signs that it might be time for a career change. Whether you're feeling stuc...

Many Christians turn to the Bible as a cornerstone for navigating relationships—especially marriage. But what happens when scripture doesn't seem to address the unhealthy dynamics unfolding behind closed doors? When the advice doesn't match the reality, it can lead to deep confusion, spiritual dissonance, and questioning not only one's faith, but also trusted mentors—and even God. In this heartfel...

Because I feel very comfortable with Jarrett, I decided to experiment with my interviewing skills and host a completely organic conversation -...

Let me tell you about that one time I decided it was finally time to build a business website. If you've seen my site, you know there is a happy and beautiful ending. But man, did I have to go through it to get here.

I always find it fascinating that even though there are so many different religions, there are also so many similiarties within them. Today, I have Kirstie Junker on the show with me to talk about Kabbalah.  If you are not familiar, Kabballah is an esoteric method, discipline and school of thought in Jewish mysticism. Don't worry , we dissect what that actually means in this episode! I have been h...

This week we are diving back into the Spirituality Series and I have a guest that I know you are going to love just as much as I do!

It feelsl like just about everyone I know has been navigating sickness on some level. In my house, it has been one sickness after another.  And lets just keep it real - it sucks to be sick. It often leaves us feeling behind, like our lives are falling through the cracks, and overwhelmed when we finally start feeling better.  What if instead of stressing about all of these things, you chose to surr...
