When loving Jesus fully feels risky, there's usually a deeper reason.

In this live prophetic coaching re-air, Heather O'Brien coaches two women through fear, clarity, and healing—revealing how fear can disguise itself as wisdom, protection, or "being cautious."

This episode is for you if you've ever:

• Felt isolated even though you love people

• Lost clarity after church hurt or relational pain

• Held back in worship, intimacy, or vulnerability

• Felt safer shrinking than fully being yourself

• How fear of deception can block clarity and callings

• Why isolation can feel protective—but isn't healing

• How fear of lack impacts intimacy and trust

• Why loving Jesus boldly can feel risky around others

• What real deliverance and inner healing look like live

This coaching session is a preview of what's available in next week's Live Prophetic Healing Workshop.

If your mind feels stuck on repeat—obsessive thoughts, intrusive fears, or exhausting mental loops—you are not broken, and you are not alone.

In this powerful conversation, I'm joined by Carrie Bock, a Christian counselor who specializes in OCD and faith-based mental health. Together, we talk honestly about how OCD shows up in Christian lives, why it often gets misunderstood or mislabeled as a "spiritual problem," and how healing begins when clarity replaces confusion.

This episode brings freedom by separating God's voice from fear-based mental noise, so you can stop striving and start resting in truth.

This episode is for you if you:

• Feel trapped in repetitive thought patterns or mental compulsions

• Wonder if your thoughts are spiritual attacks, lack of faith, or something else

• Love Jesus but feel tormented by anxiety, fear, or doubt

• Want to hear God clearly without OCD distorting the message

You'll gain clarity on:

• What OCD actually is—and what it is not

• Why reassurance-seeking and "over-spiritualizing" can make OCD worse

• How God's voice sounds different from obsessive fear loops

• Practical, faith-anchored steps toward peace and freedom

I am not stuck.
I move forward with God—even without answers."
