Before Anything Formed: Returning to the Heart God Knew
Before the fear. Before the performance. Before the version of you that learned how to survive.
There was a you that God already knew.
In Episode 18 of The Whole Hearted Woman Podcast, we go back to the beginning — not to a theological concept, but to a deeply personal truth that may change the way you understand yourself.
Because the version of you that formed in pain, in survival, in performance — that version is real. But it is not original.
And God is not asking you to become someone new.
He is inviting you to return to who He knew before anything in your life required you to become someone else.
In this episode:
What Jeremiah 1:5 actually reveals about how God knows you — and why the Hebrew word yada changes everything.
What Genesis 1 and 2 show us about the original design of the human heart — before anything distorted it.
The tender moment in the garden where a woman was named, recognized and known — and what God did when she failed.
Why "you are fearfully and wonderfully made" is present tense — not past.
Why awareness alone is not enough — and what the gap between who you were created to be and who you feel like on a Tuesday morning actually means.
"You haven't lost yourself. You just don't know how to get back yet. And that is exactly what restoration is for."
The Heart Healing Starter Guide is available in the show notes — a gentle first step into the five movements of the Whole Hearted Woman journey, beginning with identity.
