Do you ever feel like God has gone silent because of your past? Like you’ve done the one thing that disqualified you from His presence, His blessings, or even His attention?

Friend, you are not alone — and you are not forgotten.

In today’s episode, we’re talking about the hidden way shame after abortion quietly sabotages your spiritual growth. I’m sharing vulnerably from my own prayer journals and the patterns I didn’t recognize for years — including how shame shaped the way I prayed, what I believed about forgiveness, and why I felt like God was always just out of reach.

You’ll hear:

• Why shame doesn’t draw you closer to God — it keeps you stuck at arm’s length

• The three most common lies women believe after abortion that block spiritual intimacy

• Powerful Scriptures that directly confront the belief that you’re unforgivable, ruined, or forgotten

• How God’s forgiveness is not fragile, conditional, or temporary — even after abortion

We’ll also talk about what it actually looks like to grow spiritually while you’re healing — not after you “fix yourself,” but right where you are.

You are not unforgivable. You are not ruined. You are not forgotten.

Jesus came to set you free — and this episode is for the woman who needs that reminder today. 🤍

Do you feel emotionally numb when you think about your past abortion? Maybe you know something is off… but you can’t quite put your finger on it.

At one point, you may have felt relief—or even freedom—after your abortion. But now? There’s confusion. Uncertainty. A quiet heaviness you can’t shake.

Friend, if that’s you, this episode is for you.

This conversation is not meant to shame or condemn you. My heart is to gently offer a different perspective—one that might just point you toward the true healing your heart has been craving all along.

In today’s episode, we’re talking honestly about denial after abortion and how emotional numbness is often mistaken for healing. Together, we’ll walk through 4 signs you may be numb, not healed, and what you can do about it.
