- Relationship OCD (ROCD)

- Healing from complex PTSD

I shared insights on how OCD can distort our perceptions of love, relationships, and even our connection with God. Whether you're struggling with doubts about your marriage, battling intrusive thoughts about your children, or feeling trapped by anxiety, know that you're not alone. Healing is a journey of learning to be kind to yourself, practicing self-compassion, and understanding that thought showing up do not define you.

We talked about the importance of facing uncertainty, grieving our losses, and letting go of the need to control every aspect of our lives. Whether it's fear of illness, relationship challenges, or spiritual doubts, there's hope. Your healing journey isn't about perfection - it's about progress, understanding, and growing in love and grace.
