About Real with Melanie: Journal-Led Lessons on Faith, Wholeness, and Focus
This podcast is for Christian women navigating mental health, emotional healing, focus, and codependency recovery, women who love Jesus but still feel stuck, ashamed, or bound by patterns they can't seem to break. I'm Melanie Reyes, and I get it, because I've lived it. I'm a Certified Faith-Based Coach also known as your Focus Bestie, and this is Real with Melanie: Christian Women Healing from Shame, Fear & Codependency. Each episode blends honest reflection, journal entries, and life lessons rooted in biblical truth and real-life healing, including the Open Letter series, raw letter-style episodes written to meet you exactly where you are, along with honest conversations with guests sharing their own stories of faith, focus, and healing. This podcast is for you if you find yourself asking questions such as: - Why do I feel so far behind everyone else? - How do I heal from a toxic relationship as a Christian woman? - Why can't I break this cycle of people pleasing and shame? - How do I stay focused on God's plan when my mind feels scattered and overwhelmed? - Why do I keep starting over and never finishing what God called me to do? - How do I quiet the anxiety and fear that keep me stuck? - How do I trust God's timing when I feel like I'm running out of it? - Why do I feel like an imposter even in the areas where I've grown the most? Because around here, we believe transformation doesn't come from pretending everything is okay. It comes from owning your story and aligning it with God's grace. Faith + Intentions = Transformation.

37: An Open Letter to the Woman Learning to Practice Emotional Sobriety
Published 5 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] I had to unfollow people connected to those relationships because seeing their posts kept bringing my thoughts back there. I stepped away from places where I knew I was likely to run into the same people. Those decisions became very practical. I had to look back honestly at what I was continuing to expose myself to and what happened inside me afterward. Because stepping away from a relationship while continuing to follow everything happening around it was still giving that relationship access to my attention. So here's the first practice I want you to consider. Pay attention to what you keep giving access to your mind. […]
