Episode 40 – Kristen Humiston
Join us as my guest Kristen Humiston shares her personal story with us. After coming from a dark place of spiritual woundedness, Kristen found herself renewed with hope as she sat with a coach who used the power of insightful questions to draw out the wounds from the deep places of her soul. As she listened to these questions and had space to process through her own thoughts, she realized the transformative power coaching brings for anyone brave enough to take the step and begin the coaching process. This grew a passion in her to offer the same healing to others who might be in the place she’d been. Sometimes the wounds require counseling and techniques used in a therapy setting. However, sometimes the wounds just need a little light and hope can once again be established. Because of Kristen’s story, she is now able to help Christian women who may have experienced wounds due to experiences within the church setting begin to see the Truth of Who God is, Who they are in Him, and how they can begin to walk in a way of healing.
Thank you Kristen for sharing your story!

Episode 39 – Jessica Fox
Join us as my guest Jessica Fox shares her story with us. Jessica shares about her time in full-time ministry & her 5 years of running her own church. She shares how this impacted her & eventually led to burnout. This then led to her adrenals failing, depression setting in & a panic attack that lasted 3 hours. Jessica took an 8-week sabbatical to rest and recover. During the 8 weeks, she was not getting better & after going back she ended up at her Doctor’s office again who told her she was not going back & gave her all the paperwork to be on disability.
She’d lost everything & was so tired she couldn’t get out of bed. Almost a year later she was finally up to about 70%. She wanted a fresh start, so Jessica & her husband started dreaming about moving! They found the perfect location & set the date when they were going to move. And that’s where everything changed. In 2019 the Oil industry in Alberta took a dive & which led to Jessica’s husband losing a lot of his business & he was the only provider for the family at that time. They were facing bankruptcy. The job hunt began for her husband. They had their list of dream spots & “accidentally” ended up interviewing for a job in Arkansas! But it was all God’s divine plan! He was offered the job on the spot & they were moving 3 weeks later. It was a HUGE leap of faith, just trusting in the Lord.

Join us as my guest Kristin Rogers shares her story of growing up broken, longing to fill a void in her life. Growing up in a home without Jesus had it's obstacles. She would visit her family in FL each summer starting at a young age and in turn met Jesus. The void was never completely gone as she would return back home unchurched or discipled. So at a young age, she turned to relationships, boys! She tried to fill the hole in her heart with boys.
Before she graduated high school, she had experienced more relationship trauma than most 30 year old women; she was cheated on, physically abused, and verbally abused, you name it, she had experienced it.
And then she was off to college & full rebellion set in. She started dabbling in drugs & was smoking a ton of pot. But she was still doing really well with her grades.
Then one day, she got a phone call, her Cousin Lindsey had been life-flighted. And she hit her knees, bargaining with God to save her cousin & if He did, she would follow him.
So Kristin left school & flew down to help care for her cousin.
She stayed for a good while, but then decided to move back to be with her parents.
During her time in Georgia she drew closer to Jesus. She started to seek Him more. She got her first Bible and, started journaling.
Then, her Senior year in College, her mom left her dad. At that point, depression anxiety, PTSD set in for the first time.
Moving forward, she graduated& went out with some friends, and met her future husband.
Fast forward, they got married, and had a beautiful baby boy!
One day, at 27 years old, while organizing her bookshelf, she had an encounter with the Lord. Everything changed.
She acknowledged one hard fact about herself that day that led to years of inner work in the Spirit.
God has revealed that she had an approval addiction, she was a perfectionist, and she was a self sabotager. Just to name a few.
Over time God has transformed a broken heart into a strong and bold one!
Her story is truly inspiring!! If it doesn't feel beautiful right now, Jesus can make it beautiful! He turns ashes into beauty! Thank you to Kristin for sharing her story with us today.

Episode 36 – Sara Vogel
Join us as my returning guest Sara Vogel shares her story of truly being open to God’s plan in her life & the life of a complete stranger. Two years ago, the thought popped in her head, “I wonder what it would take to donate an organ.” Not thinking anything of it, she let it go. But the thought kept returning. Then the same year, in the summer of 2018 Sara saw a Facebook post; a young man in Cincinnati was looking for a kidney. Sara looked into how someone would know if they are a match & started taking steps of obedience. Mounds of paperwork, blood tests, and then the waiting. As she was going through the process, God gave her opportunity after opportunity to share the story of how God put this on her heart. So far, she was a match! Sara was then asked to come to Christ Hospital in Cincinnati for a full day of testing. More bloodwork, blood pressure monitoring, urinalysis, and much more. It was getting real & she was getting nervous!! Sara asked God to confirm that this was what HE wanted her to do. That same day, there was an update on the Facebook page. They hadn’t posted in 4 months. The young man that needed a kidney was doing worse! He was now on dialysis 10 hours a day. They were pleading for people to get tested to see if they were a match.
This was a sign for Sara that this was indeed God’s plan. Then in January 2019 she got the call. She was approved & was a match! Surgery was scheduled for April 9, 2019. They both went through surgery that day & the first question Sara asked “How is he?” He was great! All along, she just knew that God was going to make it all ok. She never doubted his providence! In August of 2019 Sara got to contact her kidney recipient! She wanted to tell him that God sent her for him! Then in September she got to meet him & his family. What an amazing testimony of God’s goodness, his faithfulness & his provision!

Join us as my guest Melissa Kottelenberg shares the story of her fourth child, Tyson. When Tyson was born, he was sleeping a lot & had to be woken up to feed. Melissa knew that something wasn’t right, so they took Tyson to the Emergency Room. God placed their Pediatrician in the ER that day who took a look at Tyson & quickly recognized there was an issue.
It was discovered that Tyson was born with severe congenital heart defects. He's had 3 open-heart surgeries and multiple cardiac procedures, scans, tests, etc and he was at one time heading down the transplant road because he used to get sick so often, the doctors talked about doing not only a heart transplant but also a lung transplant! It's a miracle that he is alive because his defects are so severe that they are 100% fatal if left untreated. Melissa has seen God's providence and cares in so many areas of Tyson’s life! God also led Melissa to the healing powers of doTERRA essential oils that have not only changed the course of Tyson’s life but also Melissa’s! Now… Tyson’s medical team no longer talks about a heart + lung transplant with them! To God be the glory!! Thank you Melissa for sharing with us!
