You can have the credentials, the career, the leadership title, and still be running from a six-year-old wound you didn't know was there. That's the story Tammy shares in this raw, honest conversation — and it just might be your story too.

In this episode, Frances Jean sits down with guest, Tammy Gosse, an inner healing practitioner who spent years achieving, serving, and striving — all while carrying a wound spoken over her in childhood that shaped everything. This is a conversation about what healing actually looks like when you stop pushing it down and let Jesus into the places you've kept locked away.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• Why some of the most "successful" people in the church are also the most deeply wounded — and how busyness and service can be a cover
• What happens when your inner child never gets healed — and how old pain silently drives present-day behavior
• Why forgiving someone isn't always enough, and what the missing piece of real breakthrough often looks like
• How emotional shutdown affects your ability to experience joy, intimacy, and connection — and what it looks like when healing opens those back up
• Why it's not just okay to feel your emotions — it's how God designed you, and it's part of the abundant life

Episode Highlights:

• [00:42] Frances Jean and Tammy share how a divine appointment at a birthday party led to a deep friendship — and this conversation
• [03:07] Tammy's story: how years of serving in the church were fueled not by calling, but by a wound she hadn't yet faced
• [05:00] The band-aid of busyness: what it looks like when ministry becomes a way to avoid pain
• [07:13] Why Tammy couldn't sit still, be quiet, or face her own emotions — and what she was really running from
• [09:42] The healing retreat moment: meeting her six-year-old self for the first time and what happened when she finally let Jesus into that memory
• [12:03] "The handcuffs came off" — what life has looked like since that breakthrough
• [14:02] The difference between striving for earthly things and pouring your emotions out at God's feet
• [16:22] How Tammy went from never crying to weeping before the Lord — and why that's not weakness, it's wholeness
• [21:04] Frances Jean on the power of naming your joy out loud — and why positive emotions need to be expressed, not just endured
• [23:11] What emotional shutdown actually does to your relationship with God, others, and yourself
• [25:12] A practical picture of how to take your emotions to the Lord first — before unleashing them on the people around you

Key Takeaway:

"You can appear very healed until intimacy touches your wound."

This episode is for anyone who has done everything right — the forgiveness, the therapy, the prayer — and still feels like something is missing. Real healing often means going back to find the part of you that got left behind, and letting Jesus meet you there.
