Sessions with Anna

In this episode of Sessions with Anna, Anna reflects on a five-day fast that became a season of intentional solitude, prayer, and disconnection from social media and casual communication.

She shares how creating space helped her slow down, process her emotions, become more patient, re-evaluate relationships, and trust God to speak when she didn’t have the words.

Sometimes, being unavailable is exactly what makes room for clarity.

After more than a year away, Sessions with Anna is back. Life happened while I was gone—motherhood, marriage, mental health, growth, and a whole lot of learning. In this welcome-back episode, I’m catching you up on life with four children, reflecting on mental health and Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, and introducing our October walk team, Stay With Us. Most importantly, I’m sharing why I’m ready to have these conversations again.
