What if the joy you’re craving is waiting on the other side of forgiveness?

In this new episode, we’re continuing our conversation about forgiveness — not just why it matters, but how it heals. By the end of this episode, I hope you feel empowered to write a new narrative in your life — one not marked by cycles of pain and bitterness.

Through illustration and metaphor, I'm going to give you some practical tools to try in your own life. These tools have been used in the Stanford Forgiveness Project (run by Dr. Fred Luskin) or in an actual therapist's office to help a client journey through significant hurt.

If you’ve ever said, “I want to forgive, but I don’t know how,” this one’s for you.

What if the key to more peace and joy isn’t doing more… but rather letting go? Letting go of hurt. Letting go of grudges. Letting go of unforgiveness.

In this episode, we’re diving into what science says about the power of forgiveness — including fascinating research on how it impacts your mental and physical health. I’ll help you identify whether or not you have a ‘grievance story’ – a term created by Dr. Fred Luskin, author of “Forgive for Good”.

Then we’ll shift gears and look at what scripture teaches us: that forgiveness isn’t just a suggestion, it’s a command — one that frees us just as much as the people we forgive.

Whether you're holding on to a deep hurt or just trying to live with a lighter heart, this episode is for you.

Hey friend!

I'm excited to bring you my first Easter Special in podcast form. Easter has always been one of my favourite holidays to celebrate, and I'm excited to share why in this episode.

Here's what you can expect once you click play:

• I'll share with you my beloved childhood memories of Easter and the traditions I carry on with my kids (Come share yours with me on Instagram!)
• We'll look at where the symbols of the eggs and the bunnies came from
• I'll give you some ways that you can bring the Easter story to life in your own homes this year, whether that's with your kids, your spouse, your friends, or in your personal quiet times with God
• Then, you will hear a collection of my original spoken word poems that tell the Easter story, giving you insight into what took place leading up to Jesus' death, the emotions that swirled around the events of the crucifixion, and the joyful relief that was felt on the day of our Saviour's resurrection

So, come and celebrate Easter with me throughout this Holy Week!

JESUS IS RISEN!

Love,

Darcie

PS -- Each poem will be released in video form on my Instagram page throughout this week. Follow along, and help me share the beautiful story of Easter with your family and friends :)
