Have you ever felt like you're sitting on an emotional trash can, afraid that lifting the lid will make everything spill out? We’ve both been there. In this episode, we talk about how we've tried to hold it all together—telling ourselves to “move on” or “just get over it”—because that’s what we heard from others and from our own inner critic. But we’ve found that real healing doesn’t come from avoidance. It comes when we let God into the mess, one honest moment at a time.

We share personal stories—like digging through old journals and clothes tied to body image struggles—and how counterfeit comforts only gave temporary relief. The real shift started when we stopped numbing the pain and started facing it with God. Psalm 23 reminds us He walks with us through the darkest valleys, not around them. This isn’t about having it all figured out—it’s about trusting the One who holds us even in our weakness. We hope you’ll join us in exploring what it means to find lasting comfort, not in escape, but in Christ.
