Faith in the Fire: Managing My Triggers
<p>In this episode, I open up about my management process, from understanding my triggers and finding the right therapist to navigating substance use, mood tracking, and how the need to control..controlled me. </p><p>But honestly.... I almost didn’t release this episode. While recording, I was hit with intense spiritual warfare. As I sat alone, sharing what’s helped me, the enemy whispered relentlessly that I wasn’t qualified to speak on recovery or abiding in God. For a couple of days, I believed it...and I shut down.</p><p>This reminded me: this is a DAILY fight. Healing requires spiritual, emotional, and mental vigilance. We can’t let our guard down...even when we feel great. & While I am no expert, I just thank God for his strength, wisdom and guidance. </p>
