About this episode
Today’s episode gets personal—and maybe a little uncomfortable. I'm talking about the lies we believe about ourselves—and the truth that sets us free. These aren’t just surface-level insecurities. They’re the quiet, unspoken beliefs that sneak into your mind when no one’s looking. Beliefs like “I’m too much,” “I’m not enough,” or “I’ll never get it right.” They don’t start as facts, but over time, they feel true—because they’ve been repeated in pain, shame, or silence.

The way you see yourself isn’t just shaping your confidence—it’s shaping your choices, your relationships, and your faith. So today, let’s peel back the layers and start getting honest about the lies—and the freedom on the other side.

Rooting for you,
Jessica
