As Christian women, we can sometimes feel pressure to handle our emotions perfectly, leaving us afraid to acknowledge what we're really feeling. In today's episode, I'm sharing three practical, biblical steps to help you acknowledge your emotions without judgment, understand what's underneath them, and respond in a healthy, God-honoring way without getting stuck in a spiral.Your friend, JessicaStop Spiraling Plus Membership is coming November 9!Ready for more support beyond the podcast?

Have you ever had a thought pop into your head that was so disturbing or out of character that you immediately wondered, “Why would I even think that?” Intrusive thoughts can feel incredibly real, and the more you try to analyze them, prove them wrong, or make them disappear, the harder they can be to shake. They can even leave you questioning what those thoughts say about you or your faith. In this episode, I'm talking about why intrusive thoughts keep coming back, why having an unwanted thought doesn’t mean it reflects who you are or what you believe, and how you can begin responding differently without feeling like you have to figure out or fight every thought that enters your mind.Rooting for you,JessicaWant help taking the next step?If this episode helped you recognize some of the thoughts, emotions, or patterns keeping you stuck, you don't have to stop with simply understanding what's happening.

Have you ever had a bad day or a big emotional reaction and immediately wondered what it says about your faith? Maybe you’re angry and think you shouldn’t be, anxious and tell yourself you need to trust God more, or disappointed and feel guilty because you know you’re supposed to be grateful. But having a difficult emotion doesn’t make you a bad Christian. In this episode, I'm talking about why we attach spiritual meaning to our emotions, how perfectionism and shame can make an already difficult feeling even heavier, and what it looks like to bring what you’re actually feeling to God instead of trying to clean it up first - because pain and surrender can exist at the same time.Rooting for you,JessicaWant help taking the next step?If this episode helped you recognize some of the thoughts, emotions, or patterns keeping you stuck, you don't have to stop with simply understanding what's happening.

Sometimes life just keeps being hard. You're praying, you're trying, you're holding on to your faith, and it still feels like nothing is getting better. I've been sitting with friends in that place recently, and honestly, I've felt it myself too.In this episode, I'm having the real conversation about how to keep trusting God when you can't feel or see evidence that anything is shifting. I'm going to talk about self-reflection, what we actually believe about God underneath all of our theology, and why we are always one choice away from something changing, even when our circumstances aren't.
