Is your therapist helping you grow—or just validating everything you say?

In this episode, Ash addresses the issue of activist therapy, where therapists act more like ideological mirrors than actual guides. From TikTok advice that encourages you to “cut everyone off” to therapists who never challenge your beliefs, we ask:

Is this really healing… or just a performance?

Topics to unpack:

• When therapy stops being about truth and starts becoming a moral stage show
• How narcissism shows up in the therapist’s chair
• Why discomfort is essential for growth
• The Gnostic roots of “my truth” therapy culture
• What real therapy should look like

In this episode, we discuss (with some laughs) the tension between modern feminism, cultural confusion, and biblical truth. Our special guest joins us to discuss Emma Watson’s recent public stance—and her inability to articulate it—on issues that matter most, especially the importance of protecting real women in women’s spaces like bathrooms and locker rooms.

From a reformed Christian perspective, we explore what it means to speak truth in love, especially when culture encourages compromise. How can the Church respond with both conviction and compassion? How do we lovingly engage with those who are struggling with identity, without abandoning God's design?

This conversation isn't about outrage—it's about clarity, protection, and the powerful love of Christ that calls us to truth.

🎙️ Creating Dragons
What happens when we offer empathy without truth—or forgiveness without repentance? In this episode, we dig into the dark side of cheap grace and explore how untethered compassion can actually enable sin and destroy souls.

We’re talking:
– The Biblical link between repentance and forgiveness
– Why “being nice” isn’t the same as loving well
– How false empathy creates chaos, not peace
– What Scripture really says about confronting sin in love

If we truly want to love like Christ, we have to stop creating dragons—and start calling sin what it is.

📖 Scripture-based. Unfiltered. Convictional.
🔥 Real love speaks truth. Real grace requires change.
