205. Tired of the ‘Shoulds’? Reclaim Intimacy & Connection with God in 15 Minutes a Day

A HOLY MESS | From Shame, Regret, Exhausted, Burnout To Boundaries, Emotional Healing, Christian Mindset, Recovery, Personal Growth

Hey friend! Today we’re talking about growing our relationship with our Creator, AND why the phrase "quiet time" makes me cringe and how I learned to connect with God in ways that actually work for who HE made ME to be.

If you've ever felt like you're not doing devotions "right" or that your relationship with God doesn't look like everyone else's, this episode is for YOU.

It's time to let go of the shoulds and discover what actually feeds your soul.

What You'll Learn:

✨ Why traditional "quiet time" doesn't work for everyone (and that's okay!)

💪 What a "spiritual workout" looks like and how to create your own

🏃‍♀️ How movement, dancing, and even naps can be part of intimacy with God

📖 Permission to skip scriptures that bring shame instead of empowerment

🧠 The mind-body-spirit connection you can't ignore

Key Quotes:

"You may have been your mom's accident, but you are not God's accident. You are here for such a time as this."

"I don't believe my thoughts until I move my body."

"Scripture was meant to empower you. If there are scriptures tearing your soul apart, don't read them right now."

"I'm so exhausted from trying to figure everything out on my own."

My Spiritual Workout Includes:

• Gentle morning movement (12-minute circuit)
• Brain dumping & intentional journaling
• Dancing to worship music
• Nature meditation walks (praying and listening prayer)
• Sauna time for body + soul
• Rest when needed (yes, naps!)
