Summary

If you're like most Christian women in confusing and painful marriages, you've tried everything. You've read the books, the blogs, the sarcastic memes, and the devotionals. You've paid for counseling, training, seminars, and conferences. You've asked for advice from other couples, your parents, your pastors, friends, and the lady in the check-out line. You've prayed and given up all the fun things to eat and bit your tongue, and read your Bible and journaled, cried, and begged. But your marriage never changes. Or it just gets worse. You're withering. Your life looks like a wasteland. You feel like a shell of a woman. So what's the REAL ANSWER? What's THE ONE THING YOU’RE MISSING? It's simple. It's free. It’s right in front of you. In this hope-filled intervention your weary soul needs: - Why you should be looking in the mirror (and it's not to correct yourself) - A simple explanation of faith that can radically change your life - Who your true rescuer is (and why your "rescue" is never over) - What to do with thoughts that feel like facts, like: “I'm not loved. I've lost my faith. There's no hope. I've failed. My life was wasted.” - How to use your brain to your advantage (even when you're completely overwhelmed) - How your ideas about God tangle with your perspective on abuse and yourself - Practical examples from my own life and the lives of the many women I've helped Listen or download the transcript at flyingfreenow.com/141 FREE: I'll send you the first chapter of my book, Is It Me?

0:00.0	Hi, this is Natalie Hoffman of Flying Free Now.com, and you're listening to the
0:06.8	Flying Free Podcast, a support resource for Women of Faith looking for hope and
0:12.4	healing from hidden emotional and spiritual abuse.
0:17.0	Welcome to episode 141 of the Flying Free Podcast.
0:22.0	Today I thought we'd do something that we've never done before and I
0:26.2	thought we'd feature some of the questions that I get in the private forum that the ladies who are in flying higher and flying free have access to.
0:36.4	So what we do in the private forum is you can ask questions and get answers from myself or from
0:41.9	some of their coaches and from one another actually there's a lot of
0:45.0	really wise women in that group.
0:47.8	And then you can also share your stories, you can share prayer requests. We talk about our faith journey, we talk about parenting, we have conversations
0:59.0	about divorce and separation, we have conversations about staying. We have rants and raves. You can talk about, like you can share if you get a toxic text from your spouse or your ex you or your soon to be
1:15.1	X you can share it and people will chime in what and let you know what their
1:19.2	insights are just stuff like that so it's kind of fun But anyway I thought what it would do is we get a
1:24.3	I get a lot of questions in the forum and I spend a lot of time every day in the
1:28.5	forum answering those questions and working with people. And by the way, I don't do that.
1:34.2	You know, people will send me emails
1:36.1	or they will try to message me on Facebook
1:39.1	and I don't have time to answer emails, I don't have time to answer emails.
1:43.0	I don't have time to really get into it on Facebook Messenger.
1:46.0	But, and the reason is because this is where I'm spending my time.
