Send me a message if you have any questions or comments! Have you ever prayed for an opportunity, worked toward it, and then… when it finally arrived… you started pulling away?Maybe you overthought it. Maybe you convinced yourself you weren't ready. Maybe you found reasons to delay, second-guess yourself, or quietly walk away from the very thing you'd been asking God to bring into your life.Why do we do that?In this episode of Healing After Hours, we're having an honest conversation about self-sabotage, fear, and the emotional patterns that can cause us to reject the very opportunities we've been praying for.Sometimes it isn't that we don't want the blessing.Sometimes we're afraid of what it will require from us.If you've ever found yourself shrinking back just as a door was opening, questioning whether you were good enough, or wondering why you keep getting in your own way, this conversation is for you.Maybe the opportunity isn't exposing your weakness.Maybe it's exposing the fear you've been carrying all along.Tonight, let's talk about what happens when healing finally catches up with the prayers you've been praying.⚠️ PODCAST DISCLAIMERThis podcast is shared for emotional encouragement, reflection, and faith-centered conversation.
