Sometimes the way through is to WRITE your way through. ✍🏾

On this episode of Battered Healing Bouquet, Dr. Lisa Oppong gets transparent about life, healing, and the importance of continuing to LIVE—even after you've experienced the highs, the lows, and everything in between.

Having experienced many different sides of life, Dr. Lisa encourages us to find ourselves again, get active, stay engaged with life, and never underestimate the power of putting our thoughts on paper.

Write. Write. WRITE.

Journaling can be a powerful tool for reflection and emotional release. Write about what you've experienced. Write what you're feeling. Write the lessons you've learned. Write the things you never thought you could say out loud.

And don't just write for yourself—leave a trail. Your words, experiences, wisdom, and testimony could one day become something your children and grandchildren can look back on and learn from.

Getting your thoughts out of your head and onto paper can be incredibly freeing and can complement the support you receive from trusted people and mental-health professionals.

📝 Your story matters. Your thoughts matter. Your journey matters.

Whatever life has brought you through, keep living—and WRITE YOURSELF THROUGH.

Tune in to this powerful episode of Battered Healing Bouquet with Dr. Lisa Oppong.

How many times does God have to say the same thing before we finally hear Him—and actually respond?

In this heartfelt and transparent episode of Battered Healing Bouquet, host Dr. Lisa Oppong opens up about a meaningful trip and conversation with her godson, Jeremiah, that became much more than a moment between family. It became a mirror, a lesson, and another reminder of what God had already been speaking.

Through personal stories, honest reflection, and vulnerable moments from her own life, Dr. Lisa explores how God will sometimes repeat a message through different people, situations, and experiences—not because He hasn’t spoken, but because we haven’t fully allowed what He said to stick.

Sometimes the lesson isn’t new. Sometimes God is simply asking, “How many more times do I have to show you?”

This episode challenges us to pay attention to the patterns, conversations, and unexpected moments God may be using to get our attention.

🎧 TAP IN for a transparent conversation about relationships, revelation, obedience, and finally receiving what God has been saying all along.
