Shame | Ep 5
Shame pulls many of us into the darkness. It pulls us into self-appointed isolation and withdrawal from society. My reason for doing this was the shame of depression. Your reason maybe the same or several others. I hope this podcast speaks to your struggle with shame and brings to you a level of freedom in knowing... you don’t have to be ashamed.

Mirror Mirror - Part 2 | Ep 4
Sometimes our mirror can be people’s opinions of us. It was for me. I was constantly worried about who I need to be and how I could readjust myself to “people’s opinions” of me. I was letting people’s opinions dictate what my reflection should look like. It’s not worth sacrificing our identity. It’s not worth adjusting your reflection, my reflection in the mirror to satisfy “people.” Jesus said ...“I have loved you just as the Father has loved Me; remain in My love [and do not doubt My love for you].” ‭‭JOHN‬ ‭15:9‬ ‭AMP‬‬

Everyday we wake up to face a mirror. We use it to fix our hair, to put on make-up, to shave.... we see our reflection in it everyday. But sometimes we don’t like what our mirror reflects back. Whether it be something as simple as a zit or something dramatic like doubting our self-worth. It’s a battle with our reflection. If you struggle with this....this episode is for you....
