  • The Truth About Vulnerability: Why You May Be Doing It Wrong

    The Truth About Vulnerability: Why You May Be Doing It Wrong
    2026/08/27
    What if vulnerability isn't about telling everyone everything—but learning how to be honest with the right people?For many childhood trauma survivors, vulnerability can feel risky. If you grew up in an environment where your emotions weren't welcomed, where trust was inconsistent, or where being honest came with consequences, you may have learned to protect yourself by staying quiet, keeping people at a distance, or handling everything on your own.But healthy vulnerability can be part of building secure attachment, authentic community, healthier relationships, and deeper connection—with others, with God, and even with ourselves.In Season 5, Episode 12 of Room to Bloom, Julie Rebboah talks with Amber Bateman, LPC, author of Save Yourself Some Therapy, about healthy vulnerability, safe community, attachment, and a simple approach to communication that can reduce defensiveness and invite connection.🌱 In this episode, we explore:What healthy vulnerability really means—and why it doesn't mean oversharingThe difference between thoughts and feelings and how to communicate emotions more clearlyHow to recognize reasonably safe people and communitiesWhat makes a church or small-group culture healthier and more supportiveRed flags such as toxic positivity, gossip, shame around therapy, and a lack of authentic sharingA simple communication formula for expressing emotions and inviting connectionHow this approach can be used in marriage, friendships, parenting, work, and other relationshipsHow healthy vulnerability can strengthen attachment and help us feel less aloneNervous system regulation tools to use before difficult conversationsWhy self-compassion and smaller relational risks can be especially important for childhood trauma survivors⏱️ Timestamps00:00 – Introducing Amber Bateman and the purpose of healthy vulnerability00:32 – Amber's background and counseling work01:09 – What healthy vulnerability really means03:57 – Sharing present emotions instead of blaming others06:07 – How to recognize reasonably safe people09:44 – Creating safer small-group spaces10:23 – Signs of a healthy church culture16:21 – A simple formula for vulnerable, connected conversations20:26 – Healthy attachment and reciprocal care in relationships22:25 – Regulating your nervous system before hard conversations28:35 – Amber's book and resources29:36 – Final encouragement for practicing healthy vulnerability31:49 – Closing and where to find the book💬 The Communication FormulaAmber shares a simple formula for communicating honestly while inviting connection:“I feel ___ when ___. Would you be willing to ___?”Rather than assigning motives, blaming, or telling someone how they feel, this approach helps you own your emotions, describe the situation, and invite the other person into a conversation.As Amber puts it: “It's an invitation to connect.”🌿 Finding Safe CommunityJulie and Amber also discuss church and small-group environments and how to recognize cultures that support genuine connection rather than shame.A reasonably safe person or community demonstrates qualities such as consistency between words and actions, emotional responsiveness, and a willingness to make room for realness.If you've struggled with trusting others, finding authentic community, communicating your needs, or allowing yourself to be known, this conversation offers practical encouragement and tools to help you take your next step.Let's slow down and navigate this together.📖 About Amber Bateman, LPCAmber Bateman is a licensed professional counselor and the author of Save Yourself Some Therapy.

  • Why You Don't Have to Pursue Peace at Any Cost

    Why You Don't Have to Pursue Peace at Any Cost
    2026/08/20

    Forgiveness doesn't always mean reconciliation. Healing doesn't always mean returning to the relationship that hurt you. And surrender doesn't mean giving up your boundaries.


    For anyone carrying childhood wounds, questions about forgiveness, family, faith, and healing can become deeply intertwined. How do you forgive someone who hurt you? Can you experience peace without reconciling? And what happens when trauma has affected your identity, relationships, emotions, and ability to trust?


    In this episode of Room to Bloom, Julie Rebboah speaks with author, writer, and trauma-informed coach Hadassah Treu about her journey through childhood trauma, fear, emotional suppression, depression, suicidal thoughts, faith, forgiveness, and healing.


    Hadassah shares how a desperate prayer for God to reveal Himself became a turning point in her life and how discovering God's unconditional love changed the way she understood herself, her past, and her relationship with Him.


    Julie and Hadassah also unpack the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation and why Christians don't have to pursue peace at any cost.


    Key Takeaways
    • Childhood trauma can influence identity, emotional health, relationships, and self-worth long after childhood.
    • Healing is possible, even when it happens slowly and in layers.
    • Forgiveness and reconciliation are not the same—and reconciliation isn't always possible or healthy.
    • We can pursue forgiveness without ignoring boundaries or returning to unsafe relationships.
    • God can be experienced as gentle, trustworthy, loving, and non-controlling.
    • Surrender is a daily practice of trusting God that can create space for greater peace.

  • Why You Feel Like Something Is Missing: Finding Your Calling & Joy

    Why You Feel Like Something Is Missing: Finding Your Calling & Joy
    2026/08/13

    What if the very thing you've been told is “wrong” with you is actually connected to the way God uniquely designed you?


    In Season 5, Episode 10 of Room to Bloom, Julie Rebboah welcomes John “JR” Rennie from BrushFires Ministry for an inspiring conversation about finding your God-given purpose, discovering spiritual gifts, healing from past wounds, spiritual warfare, and experiencing lasting joy through obedience to God.

    JR explains why being comes before doing and how living from an endless to-do list can steal our joy. He shares how understanding who God created you to be can help you recognize your gifts, step into your calling, and become more available to God's direction.


    We also explore the connection between trauma and purpose. JR explains that deep trauma should be addressed with qualified trauma professionals, while discovering your God-given design and potential can help restore hope and give you a new perspective on your life.


    One of the most powerful parts of this conversation is the reminder that there is no expiration date on your calling. JR shares examples of people who discovered their purpose later in life—including someone in her 80s who began a prayer ministry that eventually reached people throughout the nation.



    In This Episode

    00:00 — Welcome: Finding lasting joy through God’s purpose

    01:03 — JR’s story and the mission of BrushFires Ministry

    01:34 — Being over doing: identity, obedience, and joy

    03:55 — Discovering your gifts and calling

    05:36 — Spiritual warfare and recognizing attacks on your purpose

    08:06 — The A-T-P-I-I framework

    09:10 — Trauma, healing, and reclaiming your calling

    12:36 — Joy versus worldly happiness

    15:47 — Faith, purpose, and no expiration date on your calling

    17:21 — How to connect with BrushFires Ministry

    18:24 — Closing remarks



    The A-T-P-I-I Framework

    JR introduces an acronym designed to help people recognize potential spiritual attacks:

    Accusation • Temptation • Provocation • Intimidation • Insinuation

    He explains that these experiences can influence our perceptions and provoke reactions rooted in fear, anger, or shame.



    Faith, Healing & Purpose

    For anyone healing from childhood trauma or painful experiences, this episode offers an important reminder: your past does not have to define the rest of your story.

    JR shares examples of people who had experienced addiction, homelessness, abuse, and other significant hardships but later discovered gifts for leadership, counseling, and helping others. Their experiences became part of the compassion and perspective they could bring to serving others.

    As JR emphasizes, there is no expiration date on your purpose.



    Scripture

    Hebrews 11:1 — “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.”
