Fifty episodes—what a milestone! I want to take a moment to thank each of you for being here, for listening, and for creating this incredible community.

To mark this special occasion, I’m opening up and sharing a deeply personal journey—my faith journey. This is a story of questioning, struggle, healing, and rediscovery, and I hope that it brings you peace and clarity, especially if you or someone you love is navigating a similar path.

In this episode, I dive into:

• My breaking point: grappling with feelings of unworthiness, guilt, and a high-demand religion.
• The impact of my children stepping away from the church and how that challenged my belief system.
• Wrestling with difficult topics like church history, polygamy, and patriarchy—and why I decided to stop carrying the weight of those struggles.
• How a loving, healing Christ changed everything for me.
• Practical steps I took to find peace in my faith journey: setting boundaries, giving myself grace, and reconstructing my testimony.

If you’re struggling to support a loved one who’s questioning or stepping away from the faith, I share:

• How to create safety by listening with curiosity and without judgment.
• Why you don’t need to have all the answers.
• The importance of prayer—not to change them, but to trust God with their journey.

Faith journeys are not crises; they’re evolutions. If you or someone you love is questioning their faith, this episode will remind you that growth can be messy and beautiful all at once—and that it’s okay to not have it all figured out.

Make sure to listen until the end, where I share tips for being supportive, staying anchored in your own faith, and trusting God with the ones you love most.

Thank you for being here, and here’s to continuing this journey together.

Warmly,
Michelle
