Hi, this is Natalie Hoffman of Flying Free Now, and you're listening to the Flying Free

podcast, a support resource for women of faith, looking for hope and healing from hidden

emotional and spiritual abuse.

Hi, welcome to episode 3 of the Flying Free Podcast. Today I'd like to introduce you to a friend of mine, Rachel. She is going to be visiting with me,

kind of like a little, kind of like sitting down in your living room

and having coffee,

at least 50% of the time in these podcasts.

And I'm really excited just to have conversations with Rachel that you guys can listen in on. in these and I believe that they're going to be really important to you too.

Rachel is the community support director

within the private flying free membership group.

And so she takes care of, well she does a lot of the administration in that group and I could not do that group without her.

So I'm really excited, but she's also a friend of mine, and I'm really excited to just have these conversations with her.

So Rachel, why don't you tell us just a little bit about yourself, and then we'll get started.

I am so excited to be talking to you today. I'm armed with

coffee. I'm all set up for a conversation over coffee. So yeah my name is

Rachel. I have been divorced about nine months now.

Longer than that learning about this topic,

emotional abuse and marriage and life in general and I'm still a

student of those things and always looking to learn more about what God says

about marriage and and who I am in him. And so I personally I have a 13 year old and an

energetic German Shepherd and they both keep me very busy and they also God uses me things about

about life and so it's always surprising where things pop up like that but I am so excited to be here and I'm looking forward to diving into you
