Sometimes God sits you down to remind you: it’s not about the mic, it’s about the towel. In this episode, Shantel opens up about the weight of vision, the heartbreak of misalignment, and how resting in Jesus brought resurrection power in her own life.

What do you do when the person doesn’t respond the way you thought they would — and the silence feels like sorrow?

This episode goes beneath the surface of heartbreak and into the heart of Jesus, the Man of Sorrows. It’s about the press — the crushing that produces oil. The moments where your tears become intercession, your grief becomes love, and your breaking becomes the place His presence flows through.

Because intimacy with Jesus isn’t just peace.
It’s ache.
It’s pressing.
It’s oil.
It’s love you have never felt before, a Love that wont let go.

✨ REST: The Invitation Behind the Ache ✨

What if the ache you’re carrying isn’t punishment—it’s an invitation?

In this raw and soul-stirring episode, Shantel opens up about the headache that brought her to her knees—and how God used it to reveal the deeper meaning of rest. This isn’t about naps, vacations, or hustle culture breaks. It’s about crucifying the part of us that keeps striving in the flesh so His Spirit can finally breathe through us.

Through her own story, her grandmother’s testimony, and the words of Paul, Shantel reveals the beauty (and the pain) of dying to the flesh daily. You’ll hear how rest is less about where you are and more about how you surrender—and why the ache in your body, heart, or spirit might be the very place God is inviting you to lay it all down.

If you’ve been running on empty, hustling for worth, or mistaking exhaustion for holiness, this episode is your reminder: the ache is not the end of you—it’s the end of your flesh. The rest you’ve been searching for comes through surrender.
