If you've been leading with a pressure to prove, perform, or earn your place—this is your divine interruption. In this episode of the God's Vibes Podcast, we're exposing the lie that you have to chase significance. You don't. You carry it. You are God's workmanship—strategically placed, intentionally formed, and divinely appointed for such a time as this.
There are moments in life when obedience doesn't look like staying—it looks like walking away. Whether it's a toxic relationship, a draining assignment, or an environment that no longer honors who you are becoming, wisdom to walk away is a gift from God… and a guardrail for your destiny.
Have a burning question about faith, purpose, healing, leadership, identity, or how to navigate life with God? You're not alone—and you're in the right place. In Ask Juliana, we tackle real questions from real people and respond with biblical truth, prophetic wisdom, and practical tools to help you grow in spiritual maturity and emotional wholeness. No fluff. No hype. Just Spirit-led answers to help you move forward in purpose.
God never asked you to forget your past—He's asking you to see it differently. Every moment, even the most painful, becomes part of the beautiful redemption story He's writing through your life. In this powerful episode, you'll learn how to stop living from old wounds and start living from divine truth. We'll explore how emotional and relational intelligence, biblical identity, and spiritual renewal work together to shift your narrative.

Narcissistic abuse isn't just emotional—it's spiritual. It distorts your identity, hijacks your discernment, and keeps you stuck in cycles of confusion, self-abandonment, and silence. In this episode, we expose the signs of narcissistic abuse, explore how the enemy mimics these tactics to keep you bound, and walk through the process of breaking free—mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. If you've ever felt like you were losing yourself while trying to save someone else… this message is for you.
If you've ever been stuck in a relationship you knew was hurting you—but couldn't seem to leave—you may have been in a trauma bond. These emotional ties are rooted in pain, not love. In this episode, Juliana breaks down what trauma bonds are, why we form them, and how Jesus brings the healing, identity, and power to break free. If you've felt addicted to people who harm you, confused about why you stay, or scared to let go—this conversation will shift everything.
This isn't the time to shrink back. If God has been nudging you to rise, to lead, to step into your Kingdom assignment—but you keep hesitating—this is your wake-up call. In this episode, we break down the difference between being trained and being commissioned. You'll hear why the world doesn't need more influencers—it needs mature, Spirit-led leaders who walk in discernment, obedience, and fire.

In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Heather, a graduate of the Spirit-Driven Success Life Coach Certification Program, to hear how saying “yes” to God changed everything. From feeling stuck in a cycle of fear and doubt to stepping boldly into her Kingdom calling, Heather shares how this Spirit-led training equipped her with the confidence, clarity, and anointing to lead others with purpose. You'll hear real talk about identity, obedience, and what happens when you finally surrender your comfort zone for a higher calling. This is more than a certification — it's a divine assignment.
What if the very thing you think is protecting you is actually what's holding you back? In this powerful episode of Jesus Timeout, we confront the lie that playing it safe is wise — and expose how it's keeping you from breakthrough, growth, and obedience. You'll learn why fear masquerades as logic, how faith always involves risk, and what bold obedience looks like in real life. We unpack key scriptures, biblical stories, and heart-level reflection prompts that will challenge you to trade safety for surrender — and step into the kind of life only God can lead you into.

What if following Jesus wasn't about being a “good Christian” but becoming His apprentice? In this powerful episode, we unpack what it really means to be a disciple—not as a religious label, but as someone fully devoted to the Way. The early believers weren't called Christians—they were known as followers of the Way (Acts 9:2, 19:23, 24:14). Why? Because Jesus didn't just offer theology—He modeled a way of life. We'll dive into: Why “disciple” is a noun, not a verb—and what that means for your walk The difference between belief and apprenticeship What it looks like to follow Jesus so closely you become like Him How dying to self daily leads to supernatural life Why Jesus believes in you—and invites you to follow, right where you are You weren't made to sit on the sidelines of faith. You're not just a believer—you're The Apprentice. If you've been craving real transformation, deeper intimacy with God, and a life that reflects His power and presence—this episode is your call to drop the nets and walk the narrow road.
