Join host, Ashley and guest, Mandy Faimalie on how to stop performing for worth. Dive deep into the freedom of Being vs. the trap of Doing.
Who This Is For:
- High achievers who feel empty after checking all the boxes
- Overthinkers stuck in cycles of "not enough"
- Christians who know God’s promises intellectually but struggle to feel worthy
- Anyone defining their value by productivity, roles, or external validation
- Burned-out souls craving rest beyond a vacation
Key Take-aways:
- From scarcity (“I must grind”) to abundance (“I am already full”)
- Trading anxiety for peace before circumstances change
- Why healing begins when we stop negotiating with God (“I’ll rest when I get X”)

Mandy's Freedom Practices:
1. You’re wired for BEING, not DOING:
"We’re human beings—not human doings. Your identity isn’t found in achievements but in God’s presence."
2. Performance is a false god:
"When you tie worth to doing, you’ll forever chase the next milestone. True worth is received, not achieved."
3. Your trauma doesn’t get the final say:
"Insecurities (fear of lack, shame, unworthiness) are wounds—not truths. God exchanges your pain for His wholeness."
4. Peace isn’t a reward—it’s your birthright:
"God’s peace isn’t conditional on your success. It flows when you surrender the need to control outcomes."
