In this episode of Faithfully Healed, I introduce the heart behind this sacred space and invite you into a healing journey that blends clinical insight, somatic awareness, and unwavering faith. We explore how trauma impacts the nervous system, why your emotional responses are not evidence of weakness, and what it truly means to be whole—mind, body, and soul.

This conversation is rooted in truth, healing, and the unwavering presence of God.

Whether you’re navigating burnout, healing from trauma, or simply searching for peace in the midst of life’s transitions, I pray this episode meets you where you are. You’ll hear why nervous system responses are not signs of spiritual failure, what it means to be an embodied person created in the image of God, and the deep spiritual truth that you are not broken—you are beloved. My hope is that this space feels like a deep breath — a reminder that you are not alone and that healing is holy work.

We do things differently here. This is not just a conversation — it’s an invitation to reconnect with your soul, your story, and the One who’s been walking with you all along.

In this episode, I talk about:

• Why trauma responses like anxiety or shutdown are biological—not moral failings
  

• The importance of mind-body-soul integration in healing
  

• How your nervous system patterns are shaped by life experiences and inherited wiring
  

• The false belief that we are "broken" and how Scripture calls us “very good”
  

• What it means to be embodied as an image-bearer of God
  

• The invitation to return to peace, presence, and your divine identity
  

Anchor Quote: “You didn’t start from broken. You were made very good and beloved.”

Reflection: God's gentle question in Genesis — "Where are you?" — is not condemnation, but a sacred invitation to reconnect.
