God + Mental Health Podcast

Episode SummaryWhat does faith-based addiction recovery look like when it treats trauma and mental health as seriously as the addiction itself? In this episode of the Guided Mental Health Podcast, Roslyn talks with Adrienne Bumpers, Director of The Potter's House at Atlanta Mission, about the year-long residential program that walks men through recovery from substance abuse and homelessness. They cover why addiction and mental health are inseparable, what actually happens inside the program's first 30 days, and why understanding the "why" behind addiction matters more than treating the symptoms on the surface.Scripture ReferencedJohn 10 — Adrienne paraphrases Jesus's words that "the thief comes to kill, steal, and destroy, but I have come so that you can have life and life abundantly," using it to describe the freedom, fullness, and peace the program hopes to offer clients. She references the book and chapter but does not give a specific verse in the episode.Genesis — Roslyn references the account of Adam and Eve after the Fall, recalling that God asks Adam "who told you that you were naked," and uses it to talk about God wanting people fully known without shame. She references the book but does not give a specific chapter or verse in the episode.Links & Resources MentionedThe Potter's House website: www.tphrecovery.org — where listeners can learn more about the program or apply onlineAtlanta Mission — the parent organization of The Potter's House, described as the largest homeless service provider in the city of Atlanta, founded in 1938The Potter's House campus — a 550-acre farm north of Atlanta near Jefferson, Georgia, in operation at that location since 1967General reference to 12-step recovery communities (NA/AA) and the practice of sponsorship, home groups, and step work, discussed as part of the broader recovery model The Potter's House draws from (no specific organization link given in the episode)Key Topics & TakeawaysAdrienne's path into this work. Adrienne shares a personal "God encounter" at 16, when a man experiencing homelessness at a gas station asked her to commit to helping five homeless people in her lifetime in exchange for a bracelet. That moment, paired with mission work through her church and later work with a nonprofit while attending seminary, set her on a path toward full-time ministry with people experiencing homelessness and addiction.Why she chose seminary over an MSW. Adrienne explains that she felt called to seminary rather than a traditional social work master's degree, pursuing a Master of Arts in Social Change Studies. She describes seminary as a place where she broke down and rebuilt her faith, giving her a rooted theological foundation she says she uses every day in her work, even though she ultimately felt called to community ministry rather than a pulpit.The history of The Potter's House. Atlanta Mission has operated since 1938 and runs three campuses, including two serving women with children and one serving men. The Potter's House, located on a 550-acre farm near Jefferson, Georgia, has served men with substance abuse struggles since 1967, after a family connected to Atlanta Mission's board donated the property, which had previously been used informally as a place where men in their own family worked through addiction.Why mental health and addiction can't be separated. Adrienne explains that a substance use disorder is itself classified as a mental health diagnosis, and that co-occurring conditions like anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia are common among clients. She stresses that nearly everyone who comes through their doors is dealing with an underlying mental health need, not just a substance problem.What the first 30 days look like. Clients arrive at The Potter's House through court mandates, probation referrals, or voluntary entry into the year-long program. Rules are strict: no nicotine use, and limited communication with the outside world, including cell phone access, to reduce distractions. Adrienne describes the early transition as emotionally overwhelming — grief, fear, withdrawal symptoms, and adjusting to community life among roughly 125 other men in the program at once.The interdisciplinary care model. Every client is paired with a counselor (licensed or working toward licensure), a peer in recovery who has walked the same journey, and a social worker focused on reducing barriers. Clients go through psychoeducation, evidence-based curriculum, and 12-step coaching with their peer mentor over the course of the year-long program, with employment introduced in the second half.Reframing "getting right with God." Adrienne describes pushing back on clients who say they need to "get right with God," reframing the relationship as one of ongoing pursuit rather than a transactional exchange based on behavior. She emphasizes that God is not withholding acceptance based on performance, but consistently drawing people closer, and that shame and guilt after a mistake don't reflect how God actually responds.Will's story. Adrienne shares the story of a client named Will, who came into the program with an undiagnosed and untreated case of schizophrenia, initially resistant to engaging in services. Through the trust he built with his counselor, he eventually pursued a full diagnosis and medication, finished his GED, stabilized in a job, and continues to manage his mental health independently — a story Adrienne credits to both the counseling relationship and his faith.Common misconceptions about addiction and homelessness. Adrienne addresses the assumption that addiction and homelessness are simply personal choices, explaining that most clients were introduced to substances at a young age and that addiction physically changes brain chemistry over time. She notes that most clients carry significant childhood trauma, and that understanding a person's story — the "why" behind the addiction — is essential to addressing it rather than just managing symptoms.Addiction as isolation, recovery as connection. Adrienne describes addiction as fundamentally isolating, and recovery communities as built around forced, intentional connection — sponsors, home groups, regular meetings, and accountability relationships. The Potter's House aims to send clients out with sustained income, housing, and community: a church home, a social group, a sponsor, and ongoing recovery meetings.Why the "why" matters. In closing, Adrienne explains that treating addiction without understanding its root cause is like using a band-aid on a serious infection — the underlying issue, often rooted in trauma, has to be addressed directly for recovery to hold.Message for anyone feeling too ashamed to ask for help. Adrienne closes by acknowledging that addiction can be a life-or-death matter, that relapse is a normal part of recovery rather than a failure, and that asking for help takes real courage. She encourages listeners who feel disconnected from faith or ashamed of their struggle that help and hope are available, wherever they live.How to get help. The Potter's House program is entirely free for men without income, and interested individuals can learn more or apply directly at www.tphrecovery.org. Adrienne notes that people come into the program from all over, not just locally.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Episode SummaryWhat does it actually take to build emotional endurance instead of just pushing through stress until you burn out? In this episode of the God and Mental Health Podcast, executive leadership coach, TEDx speaker, and author Leslie Bosserman joins Roslyn to unpack the science and scripture behind her new book, Emotional Endurance: Faith-Fueled Skills for Bouncing Back. They talk through stress thresholds, emotional safety, capacity, and what it looks like to let God into the process of recovering from burnout instead of overworking your way out of it.Scripture Referenced2 Corinthians 10:5 — Leslie reads this directly: "We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God and take every thought captive to obey Christ." She uses this verse to frame the idea of taking unhealthy thoughts captive and inviting God into how we process emotions, not just what we decide to do.Leslie also references the Apostle Paul's teaching on wanting to do one thing and doing another instead ("that we will to do, that we do not practice") when discussing the gap between our intentions and our stress-driven actions. She does not cite a specific chapter or verse for this in the episode.Links & Resources MentionedBook: Emotional Endurance: Faith-Fueled Skills for Bouncing Back by Leslie M. Bosserman, published by ZondervanBook website: emotionalendurancebook.comAudiobook and Kindle versions of the book, both mentioned as available alongside the print editionThe Coaches Training Institute — the in-person coach certification program Leslie flew from Central Illinois to Manhattan to complete in her mid-twentiesThe Maker's Place — Sacramento's first coworking space with onsite childcare, co-founded by Leslie and her husbandYerkes-Dodson stress-performance research — the century-old study Leslie references to explain the relationship between stress and performance (illustrated with a bell-curve graph in her book)Leslie's Substack, mentioned as one of the places she wrote short-form articles before deciding to write the bookInstagramKey Topics & TakeawaysWhat emotional endurance actually is. Leslie describes emotional endurance as a dynamic capacity built over time, combining the science of hope, resilience, and strength psychology with a faith-based understanding that we're designed to be "kingdom builders." She's clear that anyone can build this capacity, whether or not they currently identify as a believer.From residence halls to writing the book. Leslie traces her path from managing a 900-student UCLA residence hall, to building a coaching program at the University of Illinois, to becoming an early-adopter professional coach in her mid-twenties, to spending roughly a decade developing the framework that eventually became her book. She describes it as "a golden thread" — teaching what people needed, not what she planned to publish.Curiosity versus judgment. One of the episode's central ideas is that curiosity is the antidote to self-criticism. Leslie explains that asking "what motivates you?" instead of "why did you do that?" opens a person up to understanding themselves rather than shutting down in judgment.Understanding your stress threshold. Leslie unpacks the Yerkes-Dodson framework: stress improves performance only up to a tipping point, after which performance drops off sharply. She talks about helping clients identify their personal stress capacity and recognize what triggers them before those triggers "hijack" their best work and intentions.Emotions as messengers, not marching orders. A recurring theme in the conversation: emotions are meant to inform us, not command us. Leslie describes letting an emotion "wash over you like an ocean" rather than dismissing it or letting it dictate behavior. Roslyn connects this to her own experience of hearing that emotions are "information," like a thermometer reading rather than a directive.The emotion-to-character pipeline. Leslie walks through her coaching process: name the emotion, explore what's underneath it without diagnosing, decide how you want to feel instead, take that reframed thought captive, let it shape consistent action, and let that action shape character over time. She frames character as the lasting, "eternal" outcome of this work.Rest, Sabbath, and capacity. Leslie shares that without a commanded, intentional Sabbath, she would never stop working. She discusses building sustainable rhythms of rest and renewal before burnout hits, and describes her own "timeout" practices — a glass of water, a walk, even jumping jacks — as ways to get back into her body during moments of overwhelm.Defining capacity. Using the image of stretching a rubber band between your fingers, Leslie defines capacity as what you're able to handle before you break — and stresses that capacity isn't meant to be built alone. Asking for help, including relying on God, is part of expanding that capacity rather than a failure to have enough of it.The six principles of the book. Leslie explains that Emotional Endurance is structured around six core principles, each paired with science and scripture and broken into three actionable skills, plus reflection questions and a companion book club guide. The book is designed to be read in any order, with busy parents specifically in mind.Her own story with faith and timing. Leslie closes part one of the conversation by sharing her personal story of meeting her husband at age eight, staying close friends through their teenage years, and eventually marrying him at 27 — a story she uses to illustrate trusting God's timing over her own plans, and to reinforce the book's broader message about enduring through uncertainty with faith.A struggle God strengthened her through, rather than removed. In part two, Leslie gets personal about raising her son Luke, who has autism. She describes him as her greatest teacher — present, authentic, and full of joy — and pushes back on the assumption that a special-needs diagnosis is only a hardship. She shares the "God story" underneath it: her husband Joel spent 22 years working in early intervention with children with autism before Luke was born, which Leslie frames as divine equipping rather than coincidence.Reframing "good hard." Leslie talks about the mindset shift of separating what's hard from what's bad, and using difficult seasons to ask what God is building in her rather than trying to escape the discomfort. She ties this directly back to the idea that God's strength shows up in weak, unresolved moments rather than only after a struggle is removed.Her personal spiritual and nervous-system practices. Asked what holds her together, Leslie names three core practices for this season of her life: slowing her internal pace through a daily walk (often praying or listening to scripture through the Dwell app, sometimes attending a yoga class instead), immersing her home in worship music, and treating writing itself as a spiritual practice and a way of creating from truth."Show up where you are." Leslie's closing piece of advice for anyone feeling burnt out or emotionally exhausted: no guidebook or prerequisite is required to come to God or to community exactly as you are. She encourages naming the hurt out loud, whether to God, a journal, a friend, or a partner, rather than waiting until you feel more put-together.Book structure and release details. Leslie confirms the book released July 28th and describes its structure in more detail: 18 core skills organized around six foundational principles for developing emotional endurance, designed to be practical and immediately usable rather than purely conceptual.Follow Roslyn onYoutubeInstagramAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Show NotesMost high performers don't recognize burnout until their body forces them to stop — and for Dr. Jessica Houston, that recognition took years of overextending herself to outrun a childhood shaped by poverty and survival mode. In this episode, Dr. Jessica joins Roslyn to talk about healing from a condemning image of God, learning to trust him instead of perform for him, and building the self-awareness it takes to set real boundaries. If you've ever felt like rest is something you have to earn, this conversation is for you.Scripture Referenced2 Corinthians 9 (NLT) — Roslyn references this passage on being a "cheerful giver," noting that giving (or saying yes) reluctantly or out of obligation reflects a heart posture God doesn't want for us. She ties this to the idea that even our yes should come from a cheerful, willing place rather than fear of disappointing others.Links & Resources MentionedDr. Jessica Houston's website: drjessicahuston.comBook: Give Your All Without Losing Yourself: The High Performance Guide to Sustainable Success — Dr. Jessica's newly released book, available on Amazon or wherever books are sold. Includes a full chapter titled "Value Your Yes."Book: Women's Secrets: It's Time to Stop Suffering in Silence — Dr. Jessica's first book, written as part of her own healing process.Episode SummaryDr. Jessica Houston is a keynote speaker and self-leadership strategist based in Atlanta. In this conversation, she shares the layered story behind her work: a physically abusive relationship in college, years of infertility met with two unexpected pregnancies (including one after being told she had only a 5% chance of conceiving naturally), and a childhood marked by poverty, homelessness, and domestic conflict that she didn't fully recognize as trauma until she became a school social worker.Growing up in survival mode. Dr. Jessica didn't realize her family had experienced homelessness until she was an adult working in trauma training — she had assumed "homeless" only meant someone living on the street, not a family staying with relatives after an eviction. She discusses how this conditioning followed her into adulthood: even after achieving financial stability, she found herself anxious over small expenses and unable to expect good things to happen to her, because she'd been conditioned for lack and stress rather than blessing.A condemning view of God. Dr. Jessica also opens up about growing up in a strict, "condemning" church environment where she believed God was primarily watching for her mistakes — right down to feeling guilty for listening to secular music or saying a curse word. She describes spending roughly a decade rebuilding her relationship with God on her own terms, praying specifically that he would reveal who he actually is to her, rather than relying on what she'd been taught about him. She's candid that in the process of healing from religious condemnation, she noticed herself becoming judgmental of others in the same way — a pattern she had to confront in herself.Writing as obedience. Her first book, Women's Secrets, began as an act of obedience rather than a business plan — she describes God waking her up at 3 and 4 a.m. prompting her to be honest about her struggles. The book became the foundation for her speaking career and eventually her business, though she's candid that it took years of learning the "CEO side" of things — niching down, building an audience, and understanding that a book alone doesn't build a business.High performing and burnout. The conversation moves into the heart of Dr. Jessica's newest book: why high performers overextend themselves. She names two core drivers — the desire to win, and the fact that overgiving is socially rewarded while overworking rarely draws criticism. She unpacks the internal dialogue behind it ("If I don't do this, who will? I don't want to let them down") and the early warning signs people miss: chronic exhaustion that isn't fixed by sleep, irritability with loved ones, forgetfulness, restlessness in bed, and working through exhaustion rather than resting.The spiritual cost of burnout. Dr. Jessica speaks directly to what unmanaged burnout does to a person's relationship with God — he gets pushed to the back burner, only approached when something is needed, rather than being a daily priority. Her personal practice for combating this is giving to herself first, meaning she spends time with God before the rest of the household wakes up, before she's pulled into meeting everyone else's needs.Understanding capacity. She defines capacity as the amount of pressure or responsibility a person can carry without becoming overwhelmed, stressed, or burned out — and argues most people don't know their own capacity because they're afraid of disappointing others or being seen as selfish.The three questions before saying yes. From the "Value Your Yes" chapter of her new book, Dr. Jessica shares the three questions she asks herself before agreeing to anything:Do I actually want to do it?Do I have time to do it?Will taking this on push me into overwhelm?Roslyn connects this practice to the biblical concept of giving cheerfully rather than reluctantly (2 Corinthians 9), noting that the pause between being asked and answering is where the real work — and the real heart-posture check — happens.Boundaries as self-protection. Dr. Jessica describes using a personal filtering system before taking anything on: Does this align with my values? Does it move me toward what I actually want, or am I just doing it to be liked? She frames boundaries not as guarding herself from other people, but as "guarding me from me" — protecting herself from her own instinct to overgive.Who the book is for. Dr. Jessica closes by describing Give Your All Without Losing Yourself as a book for the person everyone calls on — the go-to friend, family member, or leader who is quietly running on empty while still showing up for everyone else. Her central message: self-leadership means being honest with yourself about who you are and what you need, rather than waiting for someone else to give you permission to rest.Follow Roslyn:Youtube: Click HereInstagram: Click HereAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Shame of Exposure: What Adam, Eve, and Paul Teach Us About Hiding from GodShame doesn't always look like guilt — sometimes it looks like silence, distraction, or simply not tracking the thing you don't want to see. In this episode, Roslyn unpacks the spiritual roots of shame starting in the Garden of Eden, traces how it quietly shapes our relationships, and gets vulnerable about her own weight loss journey and the moment she realized why she'd stopped tracking her food. Drawing from Genesis 3 and 2 Corinthians 12, this episode reframes exposure — to God, to ourselves, and to others — as the doorway to intimacy, not the danger we've made it out to be.Timestamps00:00 — Welcome back + episode intro 01:15 — Why this episode: a listener request for a deep dive on shame 02:10 — Episode roadmap: the Garden, relationships, a personal story, Paul on weakness, and practical tools 02:55 — The thesis: we were never meant to hide from God 04:00 — Reading Genesis 3:7-11 (NLT) — Adam and Eve hide from God 05:30 — God's first question wasn't condemnation, it was "Where are you?" 06:45 — The spiritual architecture of shame: why exposure starts to feel like a threat 08:00 — How shame shows up in relationships: self-protection, deflection, busyness, control 09:30 — Substitutes we reach for instead of being known (food, scrolling, achievement, numbing) 11:00 — Personal story: Roslyn's weight loss journey and why she stopped tracking her food 14:45 — The connection between tracking, budgeting, therapy avoidance, and addiction — why we hide what we don't want to face 17:00 — God never designed us to hide from Him — even Jesus modeled vulnerability in Gethsemane 19:00 — Naming the tension: exposure is uncomfortable and can feel anxiety-provoking 20:15 — Reading 2 Corinthians 12:5-10 (NLT) — Paul's thorn and "my power works best in weakness" 24:00 — Weakness as the entry point to faith, not the opposite of it 26:00 — How Roslyn applies this to her own self-sabotage doing the podcast 28:00 — Three practical tools to begin exposing yourself to God 31:00 — Closing thought: Adam and Eve's blame cycle (a preview of a possible part two) 32:00 — Land the message: exposure isn't danger, concealment is — this is about identity, not performance 33:00 — Outro + how to connect with Roslyn(Note: timestamps are estimated proportionally from the transcript — adjust once you have final edited runtime.)Scriptures ReferencedGenesis 3:7-11 (NLT) At that moment their eyes were opened, and they suddenly felt shame at their nakedness. So they sewed fig leaves together to cover themselves. When the cool evening breezes were blowing, the man and his wife heard the LORD God walking about in the garden, so they hid from the LORD among the trees. Then the LORD God called to the man, "Where are you?" He replied, "I heard you walking in the garden, so I hid. I was afraid because I was naked." "Who told you that you were naked?" the LORD God asked. "Have you eaten from the tree whose fruit I commanded you not to eat?"2 Corinthians 12:5-10 (NLT) Such a person could boast about that experience, but I don't want to boast about myself, except about my weaknesses... Even if I did boast, I would not be a fool, for I would be telling the truth. But I won't do it, because I don't want anyone to give me credit beyond what they can see in my life or hear in my message... So to keep me from becoming proud, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger from Satan to torment me and keep me from becoming proud. Three different times I begged God to take it away. Each time he said, "My grace is all you need. My power works best in your weakness." So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That's why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.Three Practical Tools for ExposureName it before God, not around Him — Journal prompt: "God, here's what I've been hiding, even from myself.

Episode Description:We're closing out the Kindness of God series, and this one is the most practical episode of the three. In Episode 1 we talked about who God actually is toward us — kind, not shameful. In Episode 2 we looked at how Jesus modeled curiosity in his ministry. Now in Episode 3, Roslyn brings it all home with a practical framework for how you can apply that same kindness and curiosity to your own mental health journey. She introduces the KIND framework — four postures to move into when things feel heavy, stuck, or overwhelming — and closes with practical tips you can start using this week.What's Covered in This EpisodeWhy we need a framework in the first place Most of us default to criticism, comparison, and condemnation when we're struggling. Our inner critic is loud — and for many of us, it sounds exactly like what we incorrectly believe God's voice sounds like toward us. The way we talk to ourselves in hard moments is often a mirror of the version of God we've been relating to. Kindness and curiosity aren't just theological concepts — they are practices that have to be learned and repeated. And the brain can actually build new pathways when we practice new patterns consistently.The KIND FrameworkK — Know What You're Actually Feeling Without Judging It The first step is simply naming it — not what you're supposed to feel, but what's actually happening inside you right now. Emotions are not good or bad. As the Holy Spirit once reminded Roslyn on a walk: "Emotions are just information." When you don't name what you feel, it drives you. When you name it, you can begin to work with it.Scripture: James 1:5 NLT — "If you need wisdom, ask our generous God and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking."I — Inquire Instead of Indict Once you've named the feeling, the next step is to ask questions rather than make accusations against yourself. Indicting sounds like: "Why am I always like this? What is wrong with me?" Inquiring sounds like: "I wonder what this is connected to. What might God be trying to show me here?" The difference is not just tone — it's direction. Indictment closes things down. Inquiry opens them up. The Holy Spirit is your partner in this — you can ask him directly what something is connected to and trust that he will show you.Scripture: John 16:13 NLT — "When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth."N — Normalize — You Are Not the Only One and Brokenness Is Part of the Journey Shame thrives in isolation. It tells you that you are uniquely broken and that no one else is struggling the way you are. Normalizing is not excusing — it's acknowledging that this is a human experience and you are not alone in it. Brokenness is not a disqualifier in the kingdom — it is actually the prerequisite. And healing was never designed to happen alone.Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 10:13 NLT — "The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful." James 5:16 NLT — "Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed."D — Depend — Your Weakness Is an Invitation for God's Strength Dependency is countercultural. The world tells you to be self-sufficient and figure it out — but carrying what was meant for God to carry is what steals your peace. In the kingdom, dependency is the posture that opens the door for God to move. And God's kindness is what makes dependency feel safe. If you believe he is kind, you can lean on him. If you believe he is disappointed in you, leaning feels like exposure.Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 NLT — "My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness. So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me."Practical Tips to Walk This OutDaily K check-in — Once a day ask yourself: what am I actually feeling right now? Name it out loud or write it down. Don't evaluate it yet — just name it. This builds emotional awareness over time.Keep a curiosity journal — When something hard comes up, write three inquiry questions instead of three criticisms. I wonder what this is connected to. I wonder what God wants to show me. I wonder what I actually need right now.Find your N — your safe person — Identify one person who is safe and seasoned in faith that you can be honest with without performing. Shame loses its power when it's spoken out loud in a safe space.Practice dependent prayer (the sincerity prayer) — Prayer that starts from honest need rather than polished presentation. Not "Lord I come before you grateful and blessed" when you're exhausted. But "God, I'm running on empty. I need you." That is the prayer dependency makes possible.Return to KIND when you feel stuck — It is not a one-time exercise. It is a direction to move in. When you notice yourself spiraling, come back to K — name what you're feeling — and start from there.Scriptures ReferencedJames 1:5 NLT — "If you need wisdom, ask our generous God and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking."John 16:13 NLT — "When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth."1 Corinthians 10:13 NLT — "The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful."James 5:16 NLT — "Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed."2 Corinthians 12:9-10 NLT — "My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness. So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me."Searchable Keywords Christian mental health, faith and mental health, God and mental health podcast, how to stop being hard on yourself, shame and faith, kindness of God, curiosity and mental health, Christian therapy, mental health framework, healing and faith, inner critic Christian, trauma and faith, how to hear God's voice, emotional awareness Christian, dependent on God, mental health and shame, Christian wellness, Holy Spirit and healing, brokenness and faith, sanctification and mental healthLinks Mentioned:Instagram: Follow MEW Method, Time with God Journal: Get HereYoutube Channel: Subscribe Here Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
