Have you ever looked around your life and thought, “I can’t keep living like this, but I don’t know how to change?” You’re not alone—and this episode is proof. Today, we’re pulling back the curtain on real-life transformation as three courageous women—Rhonda, Jill, and Christine—share how the Empowered to Change program became the turning point in their painful, confusing, and lonely journeys.

With raw honesty, these women recount where they began: stuck, afraid, unsure of who they were. And where they are now? Confident, courageous, and deeply rooted in Christ. You’ll hear how they found clarity, community, and tools to step into the light—and how you can too.

Key Takeaways

You’re Not Alone in the Fog Each woman entered Empowered to Change feeling lost and overwhelmed. Christine didn’t even know her favorite color. Rhonda couldn’t say she was a woman—she still saw herself as a little girl trying to manage everyone around her. Jill held her head low, gripped by shame. But God met them in their confusion, and they discovered they didn’t have to walk alone.

Identity Reclaimed Through Clarity and Courage Empowered to Change helped these women strip away the lies that kept them small and silent. As they did the internal work of self-awareness, self-reflection, and self-correction, their true God-given identities began to surface. Rhonda said it best: “I was fearfully dependent. Now I am confidently interdependent—me, God, and the other person.”

Tools That Equip You for Real Life These women didn’t just gain insight—they learned practical tools that changed the way they engaged with their relationships. Whether it was rehearsing hard conversations in the mirror, using healthy boundaries, or naming their emotions for the first time, they began to walk in freedom. “I didn’t have a ‘no.’ Now I can say ‘no’ and mean it,” Rhonda shared.

The Power of Safe Sisterhood A pivotal part of their growth? Community. These women found safety, support, and spiritual sisterhood within their group—and five years later, they’re still walking together. They laugh, pray, and celebrate each other’s wins and struggles. The healing they experienced made room for deep, lasting connection.

Healing Is Possible—And Worth the Risk Perhaps the most powerful transformation was internal. Jill no longer suffers from migraines that once plagued her during her emotional turmoil. Christine now lives empowered and on mission. And Rhonda walks in the strength and courage she found in God. Their stories remind us that healing takes brave steps—but the reward is wholeness, freedom, and a deeper relationship with Christ.
