Does it ever feel like being vulnerable is just too risky—like everyone’s expecting you to have it all together so you can’t let your guard down? Same, girl. Same. But here’s the thing: I've learned firsthand that vulnerability is the key to deeper relationships, a stronger ministry, and real spiritual growth.

In this episode, we’re talking about why it’s so hard to be vulnerable, but also why it’s so worth it.

We’ll unpack how God shows up in our weaknesses and how opening up can bring healing, connection, and growth.

If you’ve been feeling the pressure to hold it all together, let this be your reminder: you don’t have to. My goal is that this episode gives you the space to take a deep breath, let your walls down, and watch God work through your willingness to be vulnerable.
