UNCHARTED

This episode is a snapshot of pieces of my journey of growing up in IFB churches and schools, to the darker places of mental health and addiction, to owning my responsibility of healing today and what that looks like…and all are welcome here.

My life feels like a rollercoaster some days but I'm learning today that I don't always have to get on the ride. Be in the present and be gentle with yourself.

It isn’t faith over fear. It’s fear and me taking the next steps that builds my faith.

Learning to stand in who I am is terrifying, but I ain’t running today. God will show up every time as I do too.

My first love has and always will be my twin sister, Amber. Throughout my life I was stuck in loving my discomfort confusing it as contentment. This is how we break free.

Wherever you are today, it is right where you are supposed to be. Don’t give up before the miracle of you has blossomed.

My story of alcoholism to sobriety to recovery.

Revolutionary You calls to the hidden you that you haven’t met yet. It calls to those of us who believe in loving of all race, religion, and political views as we are all Gods children. We have to stand up and do something in order to bring change. Will you bring the change with me?

Faith is seen by what I do. I don’t care how I feel or don’t feel, I’m going to trust God anyway and put one foot in front of the other.

No matter where life has taken you, there’s always a way out. There’s a power in the pause of being still and allowing Grace to cover you. Today I work with what I have and that is enough.

Too many times I’ve poured the gasoline, lit the match, and scratched my head as to how everything got on fire. This episode is about how to get out of our own way and to let God in a little at a time.

Pause, pray, proceed

Some days in are harder than others, yet if we keep showing up, God meets us there.

It is purely by Gods grace, a lot of praying people, and by a lot of perseverance that I am able to tell my story of both sobriety and recovery. From Sunday School to county jails to sleeping in a tent, God had other plans for me that I could not fathom.

I've missed a lot of sunsets in my life, but thank God He knows how to redeem the time and heal old wounds. This episode is about walking through old wounds and how to practically let go and let God.

Don't wait until January 1 to start living the truth of who you really are. A lot has happened this year. Relationships have been broken, spouses have been buried, but we keep going. How to walk in our purpose even in loss...how to walk in our purpose even when we don't know what's next. Let's do this!

When our cup runs over, we can give to others. For far too long, I was giving from an empty cup not knowing why I was so suicidal. Today, I get to learn that His presence is enough for me, and now I can be present with you.

This year has had a lot of ups and downs, but through it all, we're still breathing and we still have purpose. Let's finish this year strong. I know God has more miracles for us in 2024! Let's go!

Years of in and out of rehab, jail, and homelessness coupled with hopelessness, I finally gave God space to move in my life. During my last relapse, I cried out to God, angry and bitter, but he met me with grace and love.

Happy Holidays! If you're like me, you may be exhausted but you're still goin'. This short podcast talks about how I am learning to let go, let God, and be grateful even for the exhaustion.
