Today’s episode is both deeply personal and powerfully relevant to the moment we’re living in.

We’re talking about coming out — as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer — in a time when hostility and attacks are escalating. This isn’t just theory — it’s raw, real, and urgent.

All of this in honor of National Coming Out Day on October 11th! 

Plus, we’re sharing a major announcement about a bold new chapter for FreedHearts — one we can’t wait for you to hear.

This conversation is about courage, truth, and love in the face of fear. You don’t want to miss it.

Last week, we talked about healing—the kind that doesn’t just change us, but changes the world. The healing that makes us more kind, more loving, more empathetic.

But here’s the truth: while we’re doing this sacred work, there is a battle raging around us. A relentless stream of fear, attacks, and psychological warfare designed to wear us down, to make us give up hope.

So how do we stand strong in the middle of all that? How do we keep our hearts from breaking under the weight of it?

Today, I have a story for you. It’s not just powerful—it’s one of the most powerful stories I’ve ever heard about finding courage, resilience, and unshakable love in the face of fear. You do not want to miss this.

How are you doing? Many of us are wondering, with the barrage of news and developments, what do we do?

Beloved, our job is really not to save the world because we can't do that, not in the way we think.

So, what CAN we do?

We can help save the world in a different way. We can do our own work and move ourselves into more spiritual openness and maturity, to grow and do the healing work that's inside of us to do.

And that's no small thing! Collectively, that's the best thing we can do to save the world because it helps us be more kind, more empathetic, more loving.

It's our 200th episode, and we have something very special for you!

We visit with our Asher - the one who started it all for us, the one Susan talked about in her viral TED talk.

Now a transgender man, with a transgender wife, and a child... what a journey it has been!

We talk about that today, and especially about the fears of this generation. From the financial crisis to the housing crisis to COVID to the current administration to AI... their worldview and their fears have been deeply impacted.

What are they afraid of? Where do they find hope - for them and for those who come after? And how we can best understand and help?

You don't want to miss this very special episode!

Have you tried affirmations where you look in the mirror and say the things that you want in your life, or say the things you want to believe about yourself - and maybe gotten mixed results? 

You probably heard about the power of affirmations but in practice find the results not what you’d hoped. Why?

We talk all about that today. 

If affirmations are real, if they have power, how can we make them work for us?

Actually, it is NOT complicated, or confusing, or nuanced. It is really simple. 

The Bible IS clear: There is NO condemnation against people who are LGBTQ+ or against same-sex relationships. 

You are NOT the ones who need to defend your beliefs. The non-affirming church is. 

They ignore the truth of Scripture, and they ignore the devastating, deadly impact of their false teachings.  

In this encore presentation of one of our most popular episodes, we give you a clear, simple explanation of why the Bible does NOT condemnation homosexuality.

What does and does not work when talking to evangelical Christians about LGBTQ issues? 

It can certainly be tough and frustrating. 

We are dealing with patriarchal, moral-majority driven false teaching. All taught with God’s name attached to it – and grave consequences if you don’t just fall in line. 

But we, like a growing number of people, were surprised when we opened that box we had God in. 

In this encore presentation, we talk about truly effective ways to change the hearts and minds of non-affirming Christians.

Love the sinner, hate the sin?? Wait, what?? 

It sure doesn't feel like love to those on the receiving end. You know why? It’s not! It’s homophobia disguised as love. 

Is it from the Bible or any religious text? Nope. In this encore presentation, we dive into this and set the record straight. 

Because "love the sinner, hate the sin" is total bullsh*t!

An encore presentation of our most popular episode ever, and maybe our most powerful! And wow, it’s more needed and timely than ever. 

We talk about one of the two deadliest teachings in all of humanity. 

It is at the heart of our division.  It is responsible for some of history’s most brutal treatment of ethnic groups, religious groups, women, LGBTQ; and it is rampant right now. 

What is it and what can we do?

Do you feel a bit powerless? Overwhelmed? Exhausted? 

There are lots of ways this disempowerment can show up. It’s important to practice finding your power, because the truth is, we STILL have our power. It’s beautiful and it’s limitless.  

Beloved, today, I have three stories for you about taking your power back!

It’s time!
