I know we've all heard the term "identity crisis." It's a term I've referred to a lot in this season and one I thinks thats been uniquely tossed around a lot in the last few years.

One year ago today, I had what I'd refer to a full blown identity crisis. It was a moment where everything I thought I had known until that day made sense, suddenly didn't and l felt like I was living someone else's life. It was the scary, mostly because I had no idea what was happening, but even more so, no idea how I got to this point...

Today, reflecting back on 1 year, I'm unpacking what I feel created the perfect storm of a total breaking point and the identity I was living came tumbling down.

I'll be touching on the societal pressure and factors that lead to this, the struggle of feeling lost, and the importance of reclaiming one's true identity, with God's help.

Today we'll be separating out external perceptions from internal truths in hope that you can shed this false sense, piece back the fractures to align with who God says you are and begin to restructure your authentic identity.

Have you ever been moving along quite well, when suddenly something out of nowhere creates a disruption in your progress? Maybe you've established a really good work out routine, or you are reconnecting to your faith, or you just got the dream job you always wanted- and then BAMB. You're hit with a set back that unearths your progress, ultimately making you feel all your hard work was for nothing?

Today we're talking about the phenomenon of Resistance, and how to face it when it presents itself. Ultimately- how to acknowledge its hard lessons without being overcome by it: an essential component to the healing era.

Today’s episode is close to my heart. My husband, David Curran shares his personal perspective on various seasons of waiting in his professional music career. Even though I may be slightly biased, David offers a wealth of wisdom regarding how important waiting seasons can be and the essential lessons we can learn from them. We’ll be discussing the importance of patience, personal growth, and self-discovery found within an intense waiting season. More than anything, he emphasizes the significance of preparation within these times as well as how these experiences shape one’s future success. Enjoy our silly dynamics and a ton of wisdom- for anyone who’s finding themselves in the throws of a waiting season, this episode is for you!

I love you LP- DC

Strap IN gang. PHEW. This interview is truly one of *the* most significant conversations I’ve had to date, and I cannot be more excited to bring it you. As we well know, the trifecta of healing is composed of mental, spiritual, AND the physical. Today, we are diving into the compelling, transformational, and deeply moving story of Mallory Morgan, business coach turned health advocate as she walks us through her 100 pound holistic weight loss journey in just 11 months. Mal shares her transformative journey towards health and wellness, emphasizing the importance of personal responsibility, listening to one's body, and the power of nourishment over restriction. This is a story of self love, empowerment and the true demonstration of how we can drastically our external world for good, when we come face to face with ourselves, and nourish ourselves from the inside out.

Today we're circling back on the topic of friendship loss. I touched this topic in season 1, but it seems that this theme is currently coming up once more.

I can't tell you how many messages I've received in this season so far, sharing how much the series is helping particularly in the area of friendship loss.

It almost seems many of you may be navigating this topic right now- you're IN IT in real time.

Today I want to offer a fresh perspective, and more so, a healed and holistic perspective, when it comes to navigating the changes, shifts and sometimes losses around the relationships we call our friendships.

Today is probably the most important podcast I’ve ever recorded, mainly because I am brining you inside my personal story of what ultimately sparked this healing era. I also have my incredible friend and spiritual mentor, Corina Cook on the episode today! Corina walked beside me the last 2.5 years, quite literally “IN IT” with me- As we recount the transformational journey, we are discussing the challenges that arose, the importance of friendship, and the process of breaking down emotional walls. I’ll be sharing stories of struggle, growth, and the pivotal moments that led to my current state of resilience and self-discovery. This is a story about the significance of support, faith, and the choice to overcome offense in order to thrive. There is so much power in forgiveness, letting go of burdens, and the journey towards emotional healing. And even more power through realizing healing is not something you have to do alone in your own strength- but rather through surrendering control, welcoming the invitation of prayer and the impact of truth in recognizing one's identity beyond pain and anxiety. There is so much freedom if we can choose the option to heal. Hope you guys enjoy...

In this conversation, I’m inviting my own personal therapist, Laura Williams, a licensed professional counselor, to discusses the complexities of boundaries, walls, and the false self. She is sharing a different perspective when it comes to boundaries - how they are often misunderstood and why it’s important to use curiosity in understanding personal wounding. The conversation highlights the relational nature of boundaries, the impact of unhealthy relationships, and the necessity of self-reflection in personal growth. Laura provides insights on how to navigate emotional challenges and the significance of accountability in healing from trauma. I’m so excited for you to be able to hear, it feels like you’re getting a seat inside your own therapy session, for free.
