Let’s be honest—many of us are doing all the “right” things:
We wonder, Why can’t I hear Him? Why does He feel so far? Is it something I’m doing wrong?
In today’s episode, we’re gently (but boldly) reframing those questions—and offering a new perspective rooted in both neuroscience and spirit-led truth.
You’ll hear:
Why you might not have a hearing problem—you might have a nervous system problem
How trauma, stress, and high-functioning burnout impact your ability to feel safe in stillness
The brain science behind why intimacy with God feels so hard when you're in survival mode
Why rest and regulation are the gateways to spiritual clarity—not more religious effort
How performance and pressure often mask a deep disconnection from yourself
The freedom that comes when we stop hustling for God and start being with Him
This conversation is for the woman who’s tired of trying harder, doing more, and still feeling like she’s missing something.
You are not spiritually broken.
