Silencing the Inner Critic: How to Hear God’s Voice Above the Noise with Kristen Walker Smith

On this week's episode, I sit down with Kristen Walker Smith to discuss:

• Kristen's journey through mental illness and how she found hope through her patriarchal blessing
• The power of speaking to yourself the way God speaks about you
• How to recognize and combat Satan's attempts to keep us "playing small"
• Practical ways to reconnect with your divine identity as a child of God
• Why sharing our struggles and weaknesses can actually expand our circle and ability to help others
• The importance of taking action on revelation, even when it's hard

Kristen shares her raw, honest story of struggling with severe OCD and how she went from hating herself to reclaiming her divine identity. We discuss the lies Satan tells us to keep us feeling worthless and small, and how to combat those with God's truth.

If you've ever felt lost, worthless, or unsure of who you really are, this episode will remind you of your infinite worth and potential as a child of God. Kristen's story is a powerful testament to how connecting with our divine identity can give us the strength to overcome even our darkest moments.

Key Takeaways:
