In this raw and redemptive conversation, I sit down with Sharmen Kimbrough — counselor at the Marriage Recovery Center and founder of Live Found — to talk about how women can heal after being married to a religious "man”.

Sharmen shares her story of growing up under a controlling, legalistic father, marrying into the same pattern, and eventually finding freedom in Christ. Our conversation also digs into:

- How legalism and “obedience culture” breed spiritual abuse- Why emotionally immature men hide behind Scripture and authority

- What happens to a woman’s identity after years of control

- How genuine faith, surrender, and inner work lead to healing

- What biblical leadership and submission actually look like

If you’ve ever felt trapped in a “Christian” marriage that crushed your spirit — this episode is for you.

Enjoy
