Episode 68: Own Your Feelings, Change Your Life with Debra Fileta


Listen Later

Did you know that scholars have identified 39 distinct emotions that Jesus felt recorded in the Bible? Is anyone else as encouraged by this as I am?! Our emotions can be a pathway to wholeness and healing if we know what to do with them. 


This is just one of MANY gems of wisdom waiting for you on The GoodHard Story Podcast. While guest Debra Fileta is not *technically* my therapist, this episode was so cathartic it might as well have been a paid session!

Debra is an author and licensed professional counselor who is using her life to study the emotional health of Jesus and sharing how we can access that health for ourselves. I left our conversation with a deeper understanding of my own feelings and some simple practices for taking ownership of my emotions.


If you join me on this episode of the GoodHard Story Podcast, here’s what you’ll take away:

  • A simple formula for intentional healing

  • Identifying the belief systems underneath our feelings

  • Why we project our pain onto God

  • Differentiating between the voice of God and anxiety

  • How to prevent emotional explosions

  • Taking control of our thought patterns

  • The difference between self care and soul care

  • Desperate to experience emotions in the way God intended? This episode is for you
