Summary

Have you ever truly engaged your story and looked at how God is inviting you into a deeper place of healing and redemption? How do you even begin to unpack all that you've been through and find safe people to share your story with?Author, pastor and coach Karrie Garcia has made it her life's mission to not only engage her own story, but to help others do the same. After overcoming the grips of addiction, walking through a divorce and finding herself in an unhealthy relationship with ministry, Karrie began to break free from the chains of pain and shame that kept her bound. With the help of the Holy Spirit, Karrie began to see the lies and agreements she had accepted from the enemy and others. Learning to allow the Lord to tend to the place of her woundings has given Karrie the freedom to help others name and invite God into their pain. Through her Freedom Academy intensives, online course and new book, Free and Fully Alive: Reclaiming the Story of Who You Were Created to Be, Karrie is determined to help others engage in the pain of their past so they can life free and fully alive in the present. In this encouraging conversation, Davey sits with Karrie to talk about the importance of looking at our story and trauma, how naming truth truly sets us free, and the ways in which shame can keep us bound until we acknowledge our core woundings. Your past may be full of trauma and heartache, but God wants to invite you into freedom and being fully alive after whatever you've experienced if you are willing to just step into your story and more importantly, His.

0:00.0	Hey friends, I'm sure by now you've had a chance to be encouraged and inspired by the many
0:04.5	stories of resilience and healing that we share here on the podcast, but have you ever considered
0:10.1	why we share these stories? The truth is when you're navigating a dark valley, it can feel
0:16.5	utterly lonely as if there is no one who has ever experienced the emotions you're feeling
0:22.3	or have the questions that you're asking. So much of what we do here at Nothing Is Wasted
0:26.0	is to encourage you and others that you are not alone here in this valley, but there are those
0:31.2	who have walked a similar path before you and who have found hope in healing in the midst of the
0:36.4	most profound and painful situations. Listen, if these stories have been a part of your own
0:41.0	transformation in healing, we would love to partner with you to bring that same hope to others.
0:47.7	Take a listen to the impact, Nothing Is Wasted, and the resources that we offer has had

1:18.2	listened to most faithfully. The pain to purpose course transformed my life, and I do not use
1:25.6	that word lightly in 2020. I walked through it about three years after my husband went to heaven,
1:32.9	and the course unraveled things in me that I would have not been able to name that I was still
1:41.2	wrestling with, fear being one of the biggest things I was still really feeling in my body,
1:46.9	and there were tools. There were very practical tools in the pain to purpose course,
1:52.5	alongside theology and deep, deep truth about who God is and who He is to us when we are walking
2:00.7	through seasons of darkness. The pain to purpose course met me right where I was at and gave me tools
2:06.5	that would transform my journey. Now coaching the pain to purpose course with other widows in that
