Let’s talk about trauma—because everyone has it, but not everyone knows how it’s shaping their marriage, leadership, and life.

In this episode, I unpack what trauma really is, the difference between big T and little t trauma, and how the patterns you developed to protect yourself are often the same ones keeping you from experiencing intimacy, trust, and freedom today.

We dive into:

• What trauma really means (and how culture is missing it)
• The power of protection patterns: where they came from and what they cost
• How to identify trauma responses masquerading as personality
• Why disconnection, over-functioning, and control might be rooted in pain
• How to invite the Holy Spirit into your healing

Whether you’ve done trauma work before or this is your first time thinking about it this way, this conversation is a gentle but powerful invitation to stop coping and start healing.

In this honest, Spirit-led episode, I’m sharing five things I’m doing lately that are posturing my heart to live and walk in the Spirit—especially in the chaos, leadership, and everyday decisions of life, marriage, and business.

These aren’t productivity hacks. They’re postures of surrender. And if you’ve been craving deeper intimacy with God or struggling to hear Him clearly, this conversation is your invitation to come back to center.

I cover:

• How physical posture affects spiritual sensitivity
• The spiritual weight of food, fitness, and fasting
• When God is silent… and what to do
• Why obedience often precedes clarity
• What happens when we stop trying to “perform” for God

Whether you’re leading a movement or just trying to make it through the day with integrity and peace, these recalibrations will help you slow down and surrender with boldness.

You’re significant—but you’re not the Savior.

In this humbling and hope-filled episode, Chelsey explores 1 Corinthians 3 and what it means to live with right-sized significance. Whether you feel over-responsible or stuck behind fear disguised as humility, this episode will reframe your role in God’s divine plan.

Inside, you’ll hear:

• Why some of us overinflate our role—and how to surrender the pressure
• Why others fill “sandbags” to avoid obedience (yep, just like in Up)
• How to trust God as the Orchestrator of every detail, timeline, and heart
• What it means to plant, water, or just be faithful in your portion

This episode is a reset for the woman who knows she’s called—but needs the reminder that God is the one who brings the growth.

Your brain is always scanning to confirm what it already believes—so what are you giving it permission to seek?

In this powerful episode, Chelsey unpacks the science of focus and how the brain’s Reticular Activating System (RAS) is constantly filtering information based on your current beliefs. When partnered with the truth of God’s Word, this becomes a life-changing tool for transformation.

You’ll learn:

• The neuroscience behind confirmation bias and belief loops
• How Scripture supports and supersedes your current wiring
• How to shift your focus on purpose to begin rewiring your life
• Practical tools for redirecting your attention and renewing your mind

Your thoughts don’t have to control you—but they will shape your life. Let’s make sure they’re aligned with truth.

When you’re too close to the chaos, all you see is blur.

In this soul-grounding episode, Chelsey shares how taking a step back—from stress, striving, and daily distractions—can reveal the bigger picture of what God is doing in your home and heart. From Sabbath reflections and parenting moments to long-awaited swing chairs and a husband returning from deployment, she brings you into her real life and the spiritual truths unfolding within it.

You’ll learn how to shift your posture, soften your body, and re-engage with presence—and why trying to live outside God’s design for women leads to exhaustion and misalignment. This episode also includes a deep encouragement for military wives and a beautiful reminder: God is not your earthly father—He’s far better.

Hard work. Hustle. Do more. Plan better.

That was Chelsey’s formula—until God lovingly let it all fall apart.

In this deeply honest episode, Chelsey opens up about what happened when she did everything “right” in business… and still didn’t see success. Not because she was lazy, but because God loved her too much to let her idolize her own effort.

If you’ve been pushing, planning, or praying while secretly still trying to control the outcome—this is your wake-up call. This episode will show you:

• Why self-reliance masquerades as faith
• What God is doing in you when things aren’t working for you
• How fasting reveals who (or what) you really trust
• The beauty and necessity of reaching the end of yourself

This one is fire for anyone who’s ever thought, “I’m doing everything I can—why isn’t it working?”

Because maybe… that’s the point.

Let’s be real—affirmations sound empowering, but they’re empty without truth.

In this no-fluff episode, Chelsey exposes the hollowness of self-help mantras and explains why “I am enough” just doesn’t cut it without a biblical foundation. You’ll learn why it’s not about finding your truth, becoming your best self, or repeating fluffy phrases—it’s about anchoring yourself in who God actually says you are.

This is your permission slip to stop striving and start abiding. Let’s burn the counterfeit and root ourselves in Truth that sets us free.

In this raw, honest, and Holy Spirit-led episode, Chelsey takes you behind the scenes of a chaotic game night turned spiritual revelation. From parenting breakdowns to a face-first fall at the gas station, she shares how God used the everyday and the unexpected to uncover deeper truths—about spiritual warfare, gluttony, control, and walking in the Spirit.

Chelsey unpacks the power of spiritual fasting (and the pitfalls of doing it with the wrong heart), the difference between surface conflict and deeper battles, and how to stop waging war against the wrong enemy—in marriage, parenting, and life. If you're ready to starve your flesh, feed your spirit, and reclaim your authority in Christ, this one is for you.
