  • 111 | Trauma Isn’t Your Identity: Confidence to Walk According to God’s Plan

    You don’t have to figure it all out.

    In this gentle yet powerful episode, I’m sharing how trauma taught me to strive—to perform, protect, and make things happen. But God? He invited me into rest. Into trust. Into a deeper confidence that isn’t rooted in my ability, but in His.

    If shame, silence, or fear have made you doubt God’s promises, this conversation will help you lay down survival mode and rise in Kingdom confidence. Your trauma isn’t your identity—and your story isn’t over.

    ✨ Inside this episode:

    • What trauma teaches us about control—and how God undoes that lie

    • The beauty of surrendering your strength for His wisdom

    • Why divine femininity is rooted in rest, not performance

    • How to walk in your calling without striving for it

    🎧 Plus, I’ll share a powerful affirmation to declare over your identity and a journal prompt to help you receive instead of hustle.

    You’re not who pain tried to make you. You’re who God created you to be.

  • 107 | Still Carrying Shame? How to Finally Let Go

    For years, I said I was healed… but I was still hiding behind shame.

    Shame from choices I made, things I never told anyone, and pain I tried to pretend wasn’t there.

    In this episode, I’m sharing my journey of carrying silent shame after having an abortion at 14—and how the love of Jesus gave me the power to finally break free.

    If you’ve ever thought:

    • “God forgave me, but I can’t forgive myself.”
    • “I don’t deserve to be used by God.”
    • “What if people knew what I’ve really done?”
    • …then sis, this one is for you.

      Inside the episode, I’ll walk you through:

      ✨ The truth about shame and how it shows up spiritually

      ✨ What God really says about your past (and your future)

      ✨ Why shame can’t survive in the presence of truth

      ✨ How to step into freedom, identity, and purpose—without pretending

      🎧 Plus, I’ll give you an affirmation to declare over yourself and a journal prompt to walk through with God so you can begin breaking free from shame and walking in wholeness.

      Let’s heal—for real. You’re not hiding anymore.

    • 106 | When God Feels Silent: Confidence in Learning to Hear His Voice Again

      Have you ever prayed… and heard nothing? Like you’re showing up, staying faithful, doing the work—and Heaven is just quiet?

      This episode is for the woman who’s walking through the wilderness—where things feel dry, direction feels unclear, and God’s voice feels distant. I know what it’s like to crave a word from the Lord and wonder, “God, did I miss You? Are You still with me?”

      But what I’ve learned is this: sometimes, God speaks the loudest in silence. Sometimes, He’s not punishing you—He’s positioning you. He’s training your ears, quieting the noise, and teaching you to hear Him in a new way.

      In this episode, I’ll walk you through what the wilderness really is, how biblical heroes navigated their silent seasons, and how you can anchor your faith when clarity hasn’t come yet.

      📓 I’ll also give you a journal prompt to help you recognize the whispers you’ve been missing—and find wisdom in what feels like stillness.

    • 105 | Stop Calling It Loyalty When It’s Really Trauma Bonding

      Whew...this one is personal. I know what it’s like to stay in relationships longer than I should have, hoping they’d change, thinking if I prayed harder, loved better, or kept quiet, maybe it would get better. But wisdom doesn’t always say “stay and fight”—sometimes, wisdom says walk away.

      In this episode, I’m sharing what God taught me about releasing relationships that were hurting more than healing. We’re talking about emotional manipulation, guilt, soul ties, and the myth that walking away means you’re giving up.

      I want to talk to the woman who’s tired of second-guessing herself, who’s questioning whether God is disappointed in her for finally choosing peace. Sis, He’s not. He’s proud of you for listening to His whispers.

      💔 Tune in to hear how I found freedom, how you can heal too, and what it truly means to walk away—not in fear, but in faith.

      You don’t have to stay stuck in cycles that suffocate your soul. Let’s break free, together.

    • 104 | You’re Not in Control—and That’s a Good Thing: Wisdom, Surrender & the Healing You’ve Been Blocking

      I used to believe that if I could just manage everything perfectly: my emotions, my kids, my goals, then healing would come. But God had to show me: healing doesn’t flow from control, it flows from surrender.

      In this episode, I’m getting real about the exhausting cycle of trying to fix what only God can restore. We’ll talk about the kind of wisdom it takes to loosen your grip and truly trust Him even when your heart still aches and the situation still looks broken.

      If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or like you’re failing because you can’t fix it all…this conversation is for you. I’ll walk you through how I learned to release control, how God met me in that place, and how you can partner with Him in the healing process.

      🎧 Plus, I’m sharing a journal prompt and reflection to help you get honest about what you need to let go of, so you can finally breathe, heal, and rest in God’s hands.

      ✨ Why self-worth as a Christian woman often feels fragile (and how the enemy uses it to keep you stuck)

      ✨ Scriptures and affirmations you can declare daily to walk in confidence and clarity

    • 102 | You’re Not Damaged Goods: Find Your Confidence in God’s Plan After Shame

      Have you ever felt like your past mistakes disqualified you from being used by God? Like no matter how much you try, shame keeps whispering that you’re not enough, not worthy, not lovable? In this episode, I’m sharing a part of my story I once thought I’d never speak out loud—my abortion at 14—and how God met me in the middle of that shame and said, “Shakera, speak.”

      We’re diving deep into how shame distorts your identity, how your past doesn’t disqualify you but prepares you, and why your worth is received, not earned. If you’ve been hiding, striving, or second-guessing your value, this conversation is for you.

      We’re going to break shame off your life and help you reclaim your identity in Christ—because you are not damaged goods. You are deeply loved, chosen, and still called.

      Plus, I’ll tell you how to join the waitlist for the Heal, Grow, Glow Bootcamp, where we go even deeper into emotional healing, identity, and purpose.

      Let’s do this healing work together.
