Your Gifts Aren’t the Problem: Why your strengths don’t need to be silenced—just surrendered + sanctified.

In this bonus episode, we take a deeper dive into something many of us wrestle with: What do we do with our strengths when they feel like too much—or not enough?Em opens up about a surprising insight from her first therapy session, and how it helped reframe the story she was telling herself about her gifting. Together with Audra, she unpacks how many of us wrestle with the tension between using our gifts and being ruled by them—and how surrender, not suppression, is the key.We talk about the pressure to perform, the lie of false humility, and the fear that fanfare might mean you’re being self-centred… even when you’re doing what you were made for.Key Verses:* Romans 12:6–8 – Your gifts are different by design, given according to grace—not performance.* 2 Timothy 1:6–7 – God didn’t give you fear. He gave you power, love, and self-discipline to steward the gift He placed in you.In This Episode:* Why your gifting needs stewardship, not striving.* Are you chasing a dream or cultivating your calling?* Who are your gifts for, really?
