208. Stop Suppressing Your Emotions: How to Heal, Express, and Live Free in Christ


Listen Later

Too many of us treat emotions like junk we stuff in a closet—hoping they’ll never resurface. But the truth is, suppressed emotions always leak out, stealing memories, peace, and purpose.

In this powerful episode of the Mind Bully Podcast, Norense Odiase shares his journey from numbing emotions during his Texas Tech basketball days to discovering the biblical framework for emotional healing. Through personal stories of loss, resilience, and even a run-in at the airport, he shows how unchecked emotions keep us silent, while honest expression sets us free.

Norense introduces a 4-step process—Acknowledge, Accept, Address, Express—rooted in both Scripture and lived experience. If you’ve ever felt like you’re drowning in silence, scrolling to escape, or “working” to numb the pain, this episode is for you.

Why suppressing emotions leads to memory gaps and burnout

How silence and shame are strategies of the enemy

The connection between self-love and emotional honesty

Why vulnerability is strength, not weakness


A practical 4-step framework to process emotions in a healthy, Christ-centered way
