In this episode, we dive into the struggle of people pleasing—why we do it, how it impacts our lives, and the toll it takes when we’re constantly seeking everyone’s approval. People pleasing might feel harmless, but it can leave us drained and far from who God has called us to be. Together, we’ll unpack the roots of this habit and discover practical ways to step into confidence, boldness, and true freedom.

We all crave comfort—but what happens when comfort becomes our god? In this episode, we dive into the subtle yet powerful ways comfort can take the place of Christ in our lives. Whether it’s avoiding hard conversations, staying in safe routines, or numbing ourselves with distractions, we’ll unpack how these “idols of comfort” keep us from the growth, purpose, and obedience God calls us to. Join me as we explore biblical truths, personal stories, and practical steps to surrender comfort and step boldly into the uncomfortable places where faith is truly refined.

This week, we sit down with Rae’s mom, Eunice—a pastor’s wife, mother, and ministry leader—for an honest conversation about the beauty and challenges of life in ministry. Together, we explore what it really looks like to serve behind the scenes, carry both public and private roles, and stay grounded in faith through it all. She shares her journey with vulnerability and wisdom, offering encouragement to anyone navigating leadership, supporting someone in ministry, or simply trying to balance faith and everyday life. It’s a powerful reminder that there’s more to the story than what we see on Sunday.
