Ever found yourself letting someone say or do whatever they wanted to you, even when it felt wrong? Or maybe you’ve kept someone or something in your life longer than you should have because confronting it felt too overwhelming. It’s often easier to endure the pain of staying silent than to face the discomfort of speaking up. Setting boundaries requires understanding who we are in Christ, dealing with our pain, and communicating clearly. They are essential for true, genuine love in relationships, allowing us to connect while protecting our well-being. It’s not about making rules but fostering healthy, respectful relationships.

Have you ever felt that what people say or do to you defines who you are? We often conflate actions — whether ours or others’— with our identity. For example, if you make a mistake, you might think that makes you a bad person. This is a natural, but misleading way to view ourselves. What if you viewed yourself through the lens of God's love rather than your actions? In this episode, I talk about understanding shame, personal growth through humility, the role of negative emotions, and processing guilt and repentance.Think about how you’ve internalized comments or actions. What would it look like to separate your actions from who you are? Recognizing this distinction can lead to a healthier self-view and a deeper relationship with God.

Generally, we spend a lot of time and energy thinking about what we eat. But have you considered that you might not be eating enough? In this episode, I delve into the profound impact of food on our mood and overall well-being with Leanne Vogel, a certified holistic nutritionist and functional blood chemistry specialist. Our conversation includes the prevalence of under-eating, how nutritional deficiencies affect our mental health, the impact chronic stress can have on adrenal function and cortisol production, and the emotional challenges tied to eating. We also offer some practical steps to increase caloric intake and discuss how mineral supplementation can help get your system back in balance.Rooting for you,JessicaNext steps:Get my free 3-day study and learn how to deal with your emotions in a biblical way: https://www.jessicahottle.com/3-day-study/Work with me 1:1 as your mental health coach: https://www.coachjessica.comCheck out my biblical studies: https://www.jessicahottle.com/shopWork with me in my Untangle Your Thoughts program: https://www.jessicahottle.com/healEmail me at >> [email protected]

Have you ever thought, "I'm doing the right thing. Why is this happening to me?" Many of us believe that being a Christian shields us from suffering, but that is not the case. In this episode, I dive into why pain still occurs, how to navigate grief, and the importance of forgiveness in the healing process. Pain is inevitable, but it doesn't have to turn into resentment. Embrace the journey of forgiveness and trust God's presence through every trial.

We often find ourselves burdened by the weight of responsibilities, expectations, and fears, striving to "keep it all together." But what happens when we allow ourselves to acknowledge that we might not be okay? What if we let go and trust that God is with us through it all? Letting go and trusting God is a journey that requires faith and intentionality. By acknowledging our limits, seeking God's presence, and taking care of our physical and emotional health, we can find the peace and strength to stop trying to hold it all together.

God doesn’t tell us never to have emotions. However, when we choose to abide in our emotions and listen to them without reason, we learn the fruit of that is strife, jealousy, anger, and things like these as shared in Galatians. In this episode, I talk about how we move through our feelings so our emotions don’t control us. Navigating our emotions biblically and practically involves blending spiritual wisdom with tangible actions. This means taking time to honestly reflect on our feelings, allowing us to address them with humility and openness. Integrating biblical principles with practical strategies empowers us to handle our emotions with grace, resilience, and a firm trust in God's plan.

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you desperately needed to take care of yourself, but the overwhelming feelings of guilt and shame held you back? This struggle is real, and many of us have experienced it. But why do we find it so hard to prioritize our well-being? A healthy relationship with ourselves stems from a healthy relationship with God. What we believe about God we will believe about ourselves and then live as though we believe it. In this episode, I discuss how misunderstanding scripture has led us to deny our emotions, feelings, desires, and wants - especially with our bodies. I also give you a few questions to process throughout the week to help reframe your thinking around the meaning and value of true self-care.Rooting for you,JessicaNext steps:Get my free 3-day study and learn how to deal with your emotions in a biblical way: https://www.jessicahottle.com/3-day-study/Work with me 1:1 as your mental health coach: https://www.jessicahottle.com/mental-health-coachingCheck out my biblical studies: https://www.jessicahottle.com/shop Work with me in my Untangle Your Thoughts program: https://www.jessicahottle.com/healEmail me at >> [email protected]

Let me start by honoring the part of you that's fighting to be seen. God sees you and He knows. Not only does God know, but I also know this fight. I pray that, however hidden you feel, you find comfort in knowing that other women are trying to “get loud” so they can be heard, too. In Hebrews, scripture reminds us that we are not hidden from God. He sees and knows us on an intimate level. But even when the world doesn’t see us, will the Father's seeing us be enough for us? Do we believe He truly sees us and wants to comfort us? And do we allow Him to comfort us? In this episode, I talk through practical steps to train yourself for Godliness, like acknowledging your feelings, reflecting on scripture, and practicing gratitude. You are deeply seen and known by God. Take comfort in knowing that you are never alone, for God's gaze is always upon you, guiding you with His grace and surrounding you with His unfailing love.

“I’m just not good enough.” “I should have known better.” “I’m not worthy of forgiveness.” “I always mess things up.” “I’ll never be able to change.” Behind every one of those phrases, we find a piece of ourselves that feels like it should be punished. So, we impose self-punishment and call it "holy," but punishing ourselves is no way to live. Let me ask you this - Do you believe you are forgiven? Fully forgiven, especially when you repent? In this episode, I walk through the steps of genuine repentance, redemption, and restoration through Christ. When we genuinely repent of our sins, God extends His forgiveness to us through the redemptive work of Jesus Christ. This forgiveness brings restoration of our relationship with God and freedom from the guilt and condemnation of sin.

The topic in today's episode has been on my heart for a while because I've been reflecting on what my life might look like had I chosen to continue to make decisions that kept me headed down the same dark road much of my family has traveled. Maybe you can relate. In this conversation, I pose 3 questions that can help you recognize where you have been participating in generational sin and how to break free. You don't have to be a statistic. It will not be easy but it can be done. I am living proof that even the smallest choice can lead you down a new path.

Every day, when our alarms go off and our eyes open, we begin making decisions. By the end of the day, when our heads hit the pillow to do it all over again, we would have made an estimated 35,000 decisions. But we have to do it, right? The family needs to be fed, we need to go to work, and our friendships are important, so the question becomes how do we steward what God has entrusted to us without living overwhelmed by stress or filled with anxiety day in and day out.In this episode, I walk you through two simple, practical things that you can do right away to release stress and refocus your attention back on God.

Your childhood, what you have done, what has been done to you, what people have said to you, what people haven’t told you - every one of these sentences when answered holds pieces about who you are; a moment in your life that tried to form you into another image other than your Father’s. Those messages have tried to form this theme: “When you show up as who God has created you to be, you are too much and not enough all at the same time.” However, over the last couple of years, after letting go of some unhealthy relationships, I am thankful for God’s kindness in showing me that who I am in Him is enough, regardless of what it looks like to other people. My hope for this episode is that you get honest with yourself and see what stories you believe about who you are based on your life versus what is based on a solid foundation of the Father’s love for you.

I hear the pain in my coaching client's words when they say, “I feel like God is punishing me.” Many of the women who go through my programs and coaching one-to-one have been taught a view of God that is vengeful, full of wrath, and all punishment. They fear that when they don’t do something perfect God will punish them for it. If our theology of God isn’t based on His goodness, then when things happen that we didn’t expect or plan for, it’s easy to think God is punishing us. But God doesn’t bring punishment; he does, however, discipline us. In this episode, I walk through what I've learned about the differences between punishment and discipline. God will prune the parts of our lives that do not bear fruit if we allow Him to. Do you often view God as a punisher? Do you have a healthy view of discipline? Let’s talk about it.

I am very acquainted with this question - if God is good, why am I in so much pain? In this episode, I share my own story of abuse and striving. Through the years, it has been a process of renewing and redefining all the pain I have gone through with others. It’s also taken time to forgive myself for the pain I caused others and the choices I made. I had to fully receive what Jesus did for me so I could not hold myself to any other standard. When I talk about coaching and counseling women, I don’t come from a place of having arrived or not being able to empathize. I have watched God redeem the broken pieces of my life over and over again and I know He wants to do for you too.

Sometimes we have to be willing to love people from a distance because love doesn’t require proximity, other times we commit to love closely. The depth at which we love will be the depth which we can experience pain.

“I don’t know how to process through what I am feeling and struggle with anxiety daily,” a coaching client of mine told me. She continued, “I have been taught my entire life to deny myself, so how do I honor God but also honor who He made me?” Maybe, like my coaching client, you have felt the same way, a world where you need to get yourself together before you can go to God. In this episode, I walk through some scriptures about denying ourselves that are commonly misunderstood and explain how denying our flesh allows our life in Christ to grow, strengthen, and develop. I’m praying you know you can go to God with how you feel. You don’t need to pretend or deny any part of you because He already knows every part. I know this may not feel easy, but freedom is on the other side.

A survivor struggles to bring together two irreconcilable realities - God and abuse. “If God is good then why did this not-so-good thing happen to me?” This is a question we ponder when the pain of what happened feels far from anything good. We can see a world where there is pain and suffering without God, but how do we live in a world with a good God AND pain and suffering? That’s what we will be discussing in today’s episode. I want to open up the conversation around the question so many people who are hurting are asking.

Anger is an emotion that hits hard, has some of the most intense reactions, and can be felt deeply in the body. It doesn’t matter if you are someone who feels their feelings, shoves down their feelings, or has difficulty communicating them; anger is unavoidable because we are humans living in a fallen world. That is not an excuse for anger but a fact. Anger is one of the most basic emotions we, as humans, feel and experience. I aim to help you befriend the feeling of anger instead of running from it. In this episode, I talk about what happens to our bodies when we experience anger and the normal ways we respond to it. I also offer a few techniques that can help you manage anger and biblical practices we are all called to do by God.

With the fast pace of this world, it’s no wonder we are finding ourselves in a constant state of anxious feelings. We think to ourselves that we will deal with it later until later never comes, and we find ourselves lying awake at night trying to process everything all at once. The good news is that the Bible offers wisdom and encouragement in dealing with these feelings. In this episode, I'm talking through a few techniques for overcoming stress and anxiety through both a biblical and clinical perspective and offering practical examples of how to work through anxious feelings.

Did you know by the end of the day, when our heads hit the pillow to do it all over again tomorrow, we would have made an estimated 35,000 decisions? That’s a lot of decisions that can come with a lot of feelings - and not all of them are good. The fact is that our feelings are not going to go away. In this episode, I explain three differences when it comes to our feelings that we need to recognize so we can stop relying on our feelings. Today, take the time to check in with yourself - slow down and evaluate where you are with God and your feelings. Remember, it’s about recognizing and honoring where you are and being honest with yourself. It’s about obedience and submission that gives us the strength and courage to rely on God and not our feelings.

I know how hard it is to forgive. I think the mistake that many have many over the years is by the phrase, “forgive and forget." First, we must understand there is no limit to which we are to forgive. We don’t get to decide who is worthy of forgiveness and who is not. Despite what they have done or may do, we are called to forgive those who hurt us. Forgiveness is not an emotion. In this episode, I walk you through what it looks like to forgive the hurts that are too hard to forget. Remember, those who forgive, choose to forgive. There’s nothing automatic about forgiveness. It’s a choice of obedience out of love and relationship with God.

I know we don't often say that we need to reconcile with someone, but it is a topic that comes up frequently in my coaching. So if your heart is hurting because someone has hurt you and you're trying to figure out how to move forward with this relationship, this episode is for you. In this conversation, I walk through six stages of rebuilding trust. Some of the stages can take longer than others - some stages we may even need to repeat. However, continually showing someone through our actions that we are committed to them, that we value them, and want to repair the trust that was broken will be the greatest gift we can give someone in the healing process.

Wouldn't life be easier if you could control the people in it? Unfortunately, it's not that simple. Relationships can be messy and difficult, so in this episode, I'm walking you through 5 ways you can handle those relationships through the lens of faith by seeing them through God's eyes, identifying stressors, and delaying our responses.

A proper relationship with yourself starts with a proper relationship with God. If you are always judging yourself by your performance, you will have a horrible relationship with yourself and live under guilt and condemnation. The release of our condemnation doesn’t hinge on our ability to forgive ourselves; our freedom from the strongholds we carry comes through Jesus. We aren’t striving to be set free, we are renewing our minds to stay free. We can’t forgive ourselves, but we can show compassion, patience, kindness, and gentleness toward ourselves in the healing process through the choices we make. In this episode, I explain two different types of forgiveness in scripture and walk through the differences between decisional and emotional forgiveness.

“I’ll never be good enough.” “I’m not worthy.” “I don’t deserve to be happy.” Do any of those phrases sound familiar? When we make a mistake it’s easy to miss conviction and move straight to condemnation, which creates a cycle of self-hatred. That is not what God wants for us. In this episode, I explain the difference between condemnation and conviction, how to break free of the weight of feeling unworthy, and what it looks like to repent.

Betrayal, whether it's from a family member, spouse, friend, or co-worker can be devastating. So, how do we find hope? In the new year, I am releasing a biblical study on rebuilding trust. In it, I talk about one of the key stages in rebuilding trust in finding security in God before finding security in people. However, in this episode, I walk through scripture that informs us of why forgiveness is the first step to finding hope after betrayal. Forgiveness is not an emotion, it's an act of love and mercy that God has called us to, and the Holy Spirit anoints us to do. Forgiveness is simply the release of debt. Jesus paid our debt that was owed. Forgiving others starts with being forgiven. That is our hope. That we can do this, not by our might or by our feelings but through because of what Jesus did on the cross for us. That’s how we get through this - we take one step at a time.

Can you remember a time recently when you allowed someone to do or say whatever they wanted to you? Or can you remember a time when you kept someone or something in your life longer than you should have because confronting the problem felt like too much? It may have felt easier to deal with the pain of staying and holding on than communicating and letting go.If you can relate, this episode about Biblically setting healthy boundaries is for you.

Are you stressed right now? It’s easy for us to feel all the expectations from other people and, if we are honest with ourselves, the expectations we place on others to meet our needs this time of the year. However, the most important thing I have learned about stress is that it comes down to perception. What story do I tell myself every year around this time? Do I look at everything I have to do as a chore or as something I get to do? Do I look at this time of the year as a place of discontentment? It’s okay where you land at this time of the year. It’s hard in general, and then you add in family trauma and history with unhealthy people, and it seems like too much. But what if we could also find a more simple rhythm in our day even when stress feels high? What if we could find a way to keep our nervous system from being overloaded or heightened day in and day out? In this episode, I share practical techniques you can use to help you ground yourself with the help of God and practice silence and solitude in the times you need it most.

I feel like when November hits, we can move into a season of either hurry or rest. The holidays can bring a lot of emotional turmoil or joy and also a lot of preparation and tiredness. When that happens, usually one of the first things to go is our time with God or even taking care of our emotional and physical well-being with the Lord. My hope for you today, though is that you don’t let this holiday season happen to you, but that you learn to find the joy, even in the chaos. That you are a woman who creates order when things seem to be spinning out of control. In this episode, I'm sharing seven things to pray through for the season ahead.

I recently shared in one of my teachings how I heard this phrase, “The body of Christ is the only army that I know of that shoots its own wounded.” To further this statement they added, "We bury people before they are dead." As Christians, we rush to statements like, "There is a purpose for your pain" or "Everything happens for a reason." Let it be said there are some truths to those statements, however for the moment nothing feels right. The hardest part about all of this is that all of us experience loss. Therefore, all of us grieve. Loss impacts all of us on a deep level. In this episode, I discuss facing losses when we all grieve differently, helpful phrases to use for those around us who are grieving, and helpful tips on how to respond to those who are struggling.

If you are currently in a hard or heavy season that feels like it will never come to an end, I hope this episode will be an encouragement to you. During these seasons, the pressure builds and some days it probably feels hard to breathe. But, even through it all, we can cling to a hope that doesn’t lie in the things we can control or the things we can’t control. Our hope lies in the Promise Keeper. Remember, hope isn’t a wish. Hope is a confident expectation that God will do what He says He is going to do. I’ve learned that my hope in hard and heavy seasons hinges on my perspective. Do we trust God to get us through this season? Do we believe He will provide for our needs? Can we trust Him? Depending on those answers will be the hope we feel and experience or the doubt and worry that will consume us.

In this episode, we are going to a place together that may feel tough, but I’m putting my big sister hat on to tell you the truth in love because I care. I’m sorry for any time scripture was used against you and your pain to manipulate you or to cause you to stay in a situation of abuse. I want you to know this isn’t God. He’s not okay with how you are being treated by His Word. Jesus' goal isn't to punish you through the Word; the Word isn't to condemn you or to keep you a slave to fixing yourself to be approved by God or to only make others happy while you are stuck in a cycle of abuse, feeling like there is no escape. His Word is meant for encouragement. God cares about your hurt deeply and He desires for you to know that you are loved, capable, and whole in Him.

If you’ve been listening for a while, you’ll notice today’s episode is a bit different, but the message is still the same. My passion is to help Christians address the very real mental health struggles they face from depression and anxiety to shame and fear. I’ve wrestled with these issues myself, and while God’s truth is key to us changing our thinking, it’s going to take more than quoting scripture to see real change. It’s time for us to address mental health in the church and my hope is that is podcast will be a first step toward facing off with your feelings and finding healing, hope, and freedom in Christ.

Relationships are hard and can sometimes end with us wondering where and why things fell apart. Whether it's something from the past or something happening now, we all want answers. We want to know the reason things happen, especially when they hurt. The hardest part is not knowing. It's like trying to solve a puzzle without all the pieces. Without clear answers, your mind races, thinking of all the things you might have done wrong or what could have happened. This can make you doubt yourself a lot and make it hard to trust others in the future. So, what can we do when we don't get the closure we need?In this episode, I walk you through some foundational steps toward closure. When you're hurt, remember that you don't need someone else to find peace. We may not get the answers we desire, but with God's help, we don't have to stay stuck in our pain, we can find closure and move forward.Rooting for you,JessicaFree 3-Day StudyLearn how to deal with your emotions in a biblical way.Get my 3-day study here!Taking the First StepDo you have a hard time accepting God’s love and believing He is good to you and not just good to others?

Have you ever made a decision and then immediately felt regret? Sometimes you will grieve a decision, even if it's the right one. I've been there. Jesus didn't promise us that following Him would be easy or come without loss, but He did promise us that He would be with us through it all. ​​​​​​Therefore, sadness after a choice doesn’t mean it’s the wrong one.In this episode, I walk through various physical strategies, emotional techniques, and spiritual practices to help you stop overthinking.

Stuck. Fed up. Barely making it - maybe these words describe what's going on in your heart lately. Not only do I understand, but God knows. What we're really saying is we need something in our lives to change. You don't need more motivation, discipline, or hours of Bible time, what you may need is to make a decision.

REBROADCAST: Our quiet time with God will not always produce a feeling, but we can guarantee that we are becoming transformed. We know this because it’s not about what we do by effort - the Spirit is who brings transformation. In this episode, I explain the purpose of quiet time with God, why it's important, and how to spend your time with Him. The length of the quiet time does not matter, but it should be enough time to meditate on what was read and then pray about it or anything else that comes to mind. Drawing near to God is a rewarding experience, and once a regular habit of quiet time is created, a specific time for study and prayer is eagerly looked forward to.

REBROADCAST: The depth we know God is the depth we will be able to trust God. Overcoming anxiety isn’t about pushing away your feelings, ignoring them, or treating what you are going through like nothing. Overcoming anxiety starts with knowing who God is to you and what you believe He believes about you. In this episode, I explain how our physical response to anxiety is connected to the beliefs we carry about God and how scripture instructs us scriptures to handle our cares and what to do with them.Rooting for you, Jessica Next steps:Get my free 3-day study and learn how to deal with your emotions in a biblical way: https://www.jessicahottle.com/3-day-study/Have me as a coach in your corner: https://www.patreon.com/jessicahottleCheck out my biblical studies: https://www.jessicahottle.com/shop Work with me in my Untangle Your Thoughts program: https://www.jessicahottle.com/healEmail me at >> [email protected]

REBROADCAST: We can spend years building trust and growing deeper into our relationships only for a moment to occur that can begin to slowly destroy the time invested. When that happens, rebuilding broken trust takes time and the intentional pursuit of restoration. In this episode, I'm talking about what happens when trust is broken, how to rebuild trust with that person by taking Biblical action, and how to learn to trust again. I know repairing broken trust is not easy, but time will help begin to rebuild what was broken. However, it will still take intentional steps to rebuild trust. The depth we experience healing is the depth we turn to the Lord and walk out His love for us. Rooting for you, Jessica Free 3-Day Study Learn how to deal with your emotions in a biblical way.

REBROADCAST: Scripture talks about three kinds of strongholds. One is a fort, fortress, castle, or secure place (a physical place) to be safe against the enemy’s attacks. Another example is when God himself is referred to as our stronghold. The third refers to negative patterns of thinking, prideful thoughts, or worldly messages that have written negative messages on the minds and hearts of believers. In this episode, I'm talking about how you can use God's Word to destroy the negative strongholds in your life. We are called to destroy strongholds, not to compare them, ignore them, or act as though they don't exist. We are to destroy what comes against the Truth, take our thoughts, and make them obedient to Christ. Rooting for you, Jessica Free 3-Day Study Learn how to deal with your emotions in a biblical way.

REBROADCAST: It’s our brokenness that blinds our eyes from the truth and keeps us focused on our pain. We can’t see clearly because our pain changes our perspective, and our perspective directs our path. Over time, ignoring our emotions, feelings, and pain only obscures our vision and ability to see clearly. Trying to pray them away or ignoring them causes even more blindness to the truth.In this episode, I'm talking about how you can start learning to trust in God and grow your relationship with Him by posing three questions -1. What’s causing you to go under and punching holes in your identity?2. What storms have changed your view of God?3. Do you know the God who calms the sea?
