I sit down with Athena Dean Holtz to explore her incredible journey from spiritual abuse and deception to healing and redemption.

Athena shares how realizing she had been deceived became a defining moment in her faith journey. We talk openly about how taking ownership of her part in the story opened the door to real transformation.

Athena and I talk about the importance of recognizing red flags in spiritual movements, as well as why developing discernment can help you understand the enemy’s tactics.

She also dives into the powerful role forgiveness plays in finding freedom, while reminding us of a divine truth: God meets us in our pain, uses adversity to grow us, and cares deeply about every detail of our lives.

This episode is for anyone navigating spiritual confusion, betrayal, or loss of faith. If you're looking for a way to experience God’s healing presence again, or maybe for the first time, Athena’s story is a beautiful reminder that redemption is always possible when we surrender our brokenness to Him.
