This episode was really heartfelt, and as I was reflecting afterward, I realized I didn’t mention something so important: there is absolutely no shame in seeking help. If you are feeling sad, stuck, or overwhelmed, please know it’s okay to talk to a therapist, seek medical help, or reach out for wise counsel. I’ve gone to therapy myself, and it was part of my healing journey.God created us for community and support, not to carry these heavy loads alone. If you’re in that place, please don’t stay silent—reach out, get help, and trust that God can use those steps as part of your healing. You are not alone, and you are deeply loved. 💕If you are struggling with suicidal thoughts or feel like you may be in danger of harming yourself, please know you don’t have to walk through this alone. Call or text 988 in the U.S. to connect with the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline and get immediate support.
