Untangle Your Thoughts | Trust in God, Hear from God, Mental Health Tips, Negative Thoughts, Relationship with God, Christian

What do you do when an emotion shows up that you really don’t want to feel? Maybe anxiety hits, and your first thought is, “Not this again.” Maybe you’re angry, sad, disappointed, or overwhelmed and immediately start trying to get yourself out of it. But what if the emotion itself isn’t the biggest problem and the fight you’re having with it is? In this episode, I'm talking about why we can become afraid of our own emotions, the extra layer of shame or fear we sometimes attach to them, and what it can look like to acknowledge what you’re feeling without assuming it means something is wrong with you or with your faith. Rooting for you, Jessica Want help taking the next step?

Uncertainty is hard, especially when your mind believes that thinking through every possible “what if” will keep you safe. You might replay conversations, prepare for things that haven’t happened, or convince yourself that if you can just figure out every possible outcome, you’ll finally feel at peace. But what if the constant problem-solving is actually keeping the anxiety going? In this episode, I'm talking about what happens when you stop trying to eliminate uncertainty and instead learn how to sit with “I don’t know” without immediately spiraling, and how that space can become an opportunity to practice trust, dependence on God, and a different way of responding to your thoughts.

At some point, many Christians find themselves asking a question they never expected to ask: “God, I’ve tried to follow You. I’ve prayed. I’ve made changes. So why does this still hurt so much?” When suffering doesn’t match the life we thought obedience would produce, it can expose beliefs about God we didn’t even realize we were carrying. If you’ve ever wondered whether you did something wrong, prayed enough, or somehow missed God because life still hurts, this episode will help you slow down and look at what may be underneath that question and what it means to trust God when doing everything “right” doesn’t guarantee the outcome you hoped for.

Can I be honest about something? I spent a long time thinking that giving something to God meant I wasn't supposed to feel anything about it anymore. Like caring and surrendering were opposites. They're not. In this episode, I'm digging into what 1 Peter 5:7 is actually inviting us into... because casting your cares isn't the same as becoming indifferent to them. It's the difference between this matters to me, and this depends on me . I'm also talking about the either/or thinking that keeps so many of us stuck, and what it looks like to finally live in the both/and - where you can have feelings and have faith at the same time.

Last week I talked about shame - that deep, quiet belief that something is fundamentally wrong with you - and how it gives birth to the survival patterns so many of us have been living inside of. This week, I'm taking it one step further. Because when shame goes unnamed and those survival patterns stay in place, they don't just stay quiet. They fuel anxiety. In this episode, I'm looking at how your inner critic is keeping your nervous system in a constant state of threat, why perfectionism and overthinking are fruit and not the root, and what it looks like to finally stop pulling at the fruit and start tending to what's underneath it.

Can I tell you something that took me a long time to see in my own life? That voice telling you to push harder, do better, keep going - the one that sounds like it's helping you? It might not be encouragement at all. In this episode, I'm starting a two-part conversation about shame, self-criticism, and why being so hard on yourself is actually keeping you stuck rather than moving you forward. I'm going to talk about the difference between guilt and shame, how shame quietly fuels the patterns you can't seem to break, and what Galatians 5 showed me about the internal war so many of us feel while we're healing.

If God is good and God is powerful, why doesn't He take our pain away? It's one of the oldest questions we carry, and one of the most honest. In this episode, I'm not going to give you a tidy answer, because there isn't one. Instead, I'm looking at this question from four angles - clinical, logical, emotional, and spiritual - to explore what pain is actually doing in us, why God's love isn't measured by whether He removes every hard thing, and what shifts when we stop asking why He hasn't taken this away and start asking how He is meeting us in the middle of it.

You don't wake up one day and realize you've been surviving... you just keep going, keep functioning, keep pushing through. And that's exactly what makes survival mode so hard to spot. In this episode, I'm talking about what it actually looks like to live in a state of chronic stress and high alert, why so many high-functioning people have no idea they're there, and what your patterns might be trying to tell you. Because the goal was never just to exist - Jesus said He came so that we could have life abundantly. And there's a real difference between the two.

Here's something I wish someone had told me sooner: forgiving someone and your body no longer reacting to them are two completely different things. You can sincerely release someone from what they owe you and still tense up when you hear their name. That's not bitterness. That's memory. In this episode, I'm getting honest about how scripture on forgiveness is often used in ways that create more shame than freedom, what forgiveness actually is and isn't, and why your nervous system responding to old pain doesn't mean your heart is in the wrong place.

"I'm a Christian... why am I still struggling with this?" It's one of the most common questions, and one of the loneliest to carry. Somewhere along the way, many of us picked up the idea that faith means not feeling deeply. But when you actually read Scripture, you don't find people hiding their emotions from God; you find them bringing their emotions to God. In this episode, I'm looking at what it means to process what you feel instead of suppressing it or spiraling in it, why ignored emotions don't just disappear, and what it looks like to be completely honest with God without being afraid that your honesty will push Him away.

There are moments when you do everything you know to do - pray, trust, wait- and God still feels quiet. This episode is for the times when the silence feels heavier than the pain itself, and you’re left wondering where God is in the middle of it. I'll talk honestly about what it means when God feels far away, why that experience is more common than we admit, and how faith can still exist even when answers don’t come right away.

Many of us know the language of surrender well. We pray, we release it to God, and for a moment, we feel peace. And then somehow, we’re right back in the worry, the replaying, the fixing. If you’ve ever wondered why it’s so hard to leave things in God’s hands without picking them back up again, this episode gently unpacks what’s really happening beneath the surface. Together, we’ll explore the difference between surrender and responsibility, why your mind keeps returning to what feels unresolved, and how learning to trust God often involves more than a single prayer.

Overachiever. Perfectionist. The strong one. The one who holds everything together. Most of us wear these labels like personality traits. But what if a lot of them are actually who we have to become? In this episode, I'm taking a closer look at the survival patterns that show up so often in the women I work with and mentor; the ones that started as solutions to real pain and real environments, and somewhere along the way became an identity. This isn't about shame or tearing down what's gotten you this far. It's about getting curious enough to ask: is this a God-given gift, or is this a strategy I no longer need?

Can I ask you something? When a hard emotion comes up, what's your first instinct? If you're like a lot of people, it's to fight it, analyze it, or pray it away as fast as possible. Because somewhere along the way, we started believing that feeling something meant we were about to spiral. In this episode, I'm going to gently push back on that. Feeling your emotions and spiraling are not the same thing, and the difference might surprise you.

Here's something I want you to hear before we even get started - God is not waiting on you to do the right things before he shows up for you. That pressure you feel to heal correctly, to read the right things, think the right way, follow the right steps? That's not coming from Him. In this episode, I'm slowing way down and talking about what to actually focus on first in your healing journey, because the problem for most of us isn't that we don't want to heal, it's that we're completely overwhelmed trying to heal everything all at once. Let's change that.

Can I be honest with you? A lot of us are completely worn out by our own minds and we don't even realize why. We've been taught that "taking every thought captive" means catching every bad thought, fixing it, and never letting it happen again. So we monitor, we analyze, we panic, and then we feel shame when it doesn't work. In this episode, I'm going back to 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 and talking about what this scripture is actually inviting us into, because it's so much less exhausting than what most of us have been doing.

For many of us, discomfort doesn’t come from conflict itself; it comes from the belief that someone else’s disappointment must mean something is wrong with us. When approval has felt like safety for most of your life, even small moments of tension can trigger anxiety, overthinking, and the urge to fix or perform. This episode takes an honest look at why being okay when someone isn’t okay with you feels so hard, how our nervous system and faith both play a role, and what it means to remain steady, loving, and emotionally grounded without needing everyone to understand or agree with you.

I want to start today with a phrase a lot of us live by, sometimes without even realizing it: If I can just understand this… I’ll feel better. When anxiety shows up, it’s often not because you’re doing something wrong or lacking faith. It’s because different parts of you are trying to protect you the only way they know how. And when we misunderstand that, we end up fighting ourselves instead of finding relief. Today I want to slow this down and look at what anxiety is actually rooted in, why control and avoidance can keep the loop going, and how peace becomes possible, not by forcing calm, but by understanding what’s really happening inside you.

Many believers wrestle with the tension between what Scripture says about God’s nearness and what they actually experience in moments of silence, pain, or emotional heaviness. There are seasons where God feels distant, not because faith is gone, but because something inside doesn’t register His presence the way it once did. If you’ve ever wondered why you can believe God is close and still feel far from Him, or why prayer can feel like it’s going unanswered in the middle of real struggle, this episode is for you. Today, we slow down that disconnect and look at what may be shaping your experience of distance so you can begin to understand it with more honesty and less self-blame.

A lot of what’s being shared in the wellness and mindset space can start to feel overwhelming. There are always more things to fix, more things to optimize, more pressure to “get it right.” And yet, even with all of that effort, many people still feel anxious, dysregulated, or mentally stuck in ways they can’t seem to think their way out of. If you’ve been trying to do the right things but still feel like something isn’t adding up internally, you’re not alone in that tension. In this episode, we slow down and look at what may be missing beneath the surface and why your experience may have less to do with effort and more to do with what your body actually needs to feel supported.
