S1E7: The Parts of Your Story You Avoid Are the Ones Your Audience Needs Most
There’s a version of your story you’ve tip-toed around… the chapter that still feels too messy, too ordinary, or too vulnerable to share. But what if that part — the one you’re tempted to edit out, is actually the very thing that builds trust, connection, and credibility with the people you’re called to serve?
In today’s episode, we walk through why the stories you avoid often carry the greatest impact, and how God can use even the tender parts of your journey as a lifeline for someone else.
In This Episode, You’ll Discover:
- Why your polished moments aren’t what create real authority
- The three core reasons women avoid sharing the stories that matter most
- How shame, fear of judgment, and “it’s not big enough” thinking keep you silent
- Why your everyday, ordinary moments may be exactly what someone else needs
- A simple three-question filter to discern which story is ready to be shared
- The difference between speaking from a healed place vs. an open wound
- How your story becomes ministry, mentorship, and a roadmap for another woman’s breakthrough
This is a conversation for every woman called to lead, influence, inspire, or step into a message-driven assignment — especially if you’ve ever wondered, “Does my story really matter?”
