    #048: Heart Work is Hard WorkAfter a short pause, My Brutiful Life is back—and in this deeply personal episode, Medda and I catch up on what's been unfolding in our lives during the break. Spoiler alert: it's been raw, stretching, and sacred.I open up about the hard work of heart work—the kind that doesn't show on the outside but demands everything on the inside. Healing from spiritual abuse isn't a linear journey. It's layered. It's lonely at times. And it often calls us to face parts of ourselves we didn't even know were still hurting.Together, we talk about what it looks like to keep walking with the Lord when the systems that once claimed to represent Him have caused harm. We share the messy middle of deconstructing religion while holding tightly to a very real and faithful Father.If you're in the middle of your own unraveling, or trying to make sense of the wounds you carry from spiritual spaces, this conversation is for you. You're not alone—and you're not crazy for questioning what once felt untouchable.We see you. We're with you. And we're doing the hard work, too.

    In this heartfelt episode of My Brutiful Life, Medda and I dive into the word God gave me for 2025: Refresh. After walking through years of stripping, healing, and redefining everything I thought I knew, this word feels like a breath of fresh air—both gentle and powerful.We talk about what Refresh means to me personally, how it showed up in unexpected ways, and why I believe it's not just a word for me, but for others who are coming out of wilderness seasons and learning how to live again.“I didn't even know how much I needed refreshing until I started to feel it.”We also reflect on the beautiful reminder in Proverbs 11:25 (NIV) – “A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.” Because sometimes, the very healing we long for comes as we pour into others from the overflow of what God is doing in us.
