• Why Can’t I Just Trust God? A Look at Attachment, Anxiety, and Faith

  Ever catch yourself thinking, “Why can’t I just trust God already?” Like if you were more spiritual, more mature, or more faithful, this wouldn’t be so hard? If that’s you, you’re not alone. And you’re not failing. Here’s the truth I want you to carry into this episode: Sometimes your struggle to trust God isn’t a lack of faith - it’s a sign of a deeper wound. In this episode, we’re going to explore how your early relationships, past pain, and nervous system responses can impact your connection with God—and how healing trust is not only possible, it’s something God wants to walk with you through.

• 3 Signs You Might Be in Survival Mode (And How to Get Out with God)

  Ever felt like you're doing all the right things—checking the boxes, showing up, pushing through—but deep down, you know you're running on empty? That’s not laziness, weakness, or failure. That’s survival mode. And God never meant for you to live stuck there. In this episode, I want to talk about what survival mode really is, how to recognize it in your everyday life, and—most importantly—how to step out of it with God. Because you weren’t created to just get through life. You were made to live it—fully, freely, and with Him.  Rooting for you, Jessica Next steps: Get my free 3-day study and learn how to deal with your emotions in a biblical way: https://www.jessicahottle.com/3-day-study/ Learn more about working with me 1:1 as your mental health coach: https://www.jessicahottle.com/mental-health-coaching Or book your free 20-minute consultation here!

• Why Your Emotions Matter to God (and How to Handle Them Well)

  If you grew up being told to “stop crying,” “toughen up,” or “just be grateful,” you’re not alone. Somewhere along the way, many of us learned to mistrust our emotions or even feel ashamed for having them. But I want to shift that narrative today—because your emotions are not a spiritual failure or a sign of weakness. They are signals, not sins. Emotions are how God wired us, not something He’s asking us to overcome. Let’s break this down together—biblically, clinically, and practically—so you can start seeing your emotions as tools for healing, not something to hide.

• How to Trust God When He Feels Far Away

  Have you ever felt like God was distant—like no matter how much you prayed, you couldn’t hear Him? Maybe deep down, you’re carrying unspoken disappointment or even resentment toward Him. It’s not that you don’t believe He’s good, but a part of you wonders, "If He really loves me, why did He allow these things to happen?" Without realizing it, we can hold judgments against God, using our pain as evidence that He isn’t trustworthy. But here’s the thing—God isn’t the one who hurt you. And rebuilding trust with Him isn’t about pretending your wounds don’t exist. It’s about bringing them to Him, boldly and honestly, and allowing His truth to rewrite the story you’ve been telling yourself.  Rooting for you, Jessica Next steps: Get my free 3-day study and learn how to deal with your emotions in a biblical way: https://www.jessicahottle.com/3-day-study/ Learn more about working with me 1:1 as your mental health coach: https://www.jessicahottle.com/mental-health-coaching Or book your free 20-minute consultation here!

• How to Break Free from the Need to Please (People)

  Do you ever feel like you’re losing yourself while trying to keep everyone else happy? You’re not alone. People-pleasing is exhausting—it tricks us into thinking that if we can keep everyone else content, we’ll finally feel safe, accepted, or worthy. But the truth is, people-pleasing often comes at the cost of our own well-being. Whether it’s the fear of rejection, a need for approval, or the belief that loving others means ignoring yourself, this pattern slowly steals your peace. But here’s the good news: You don’t have to keep living that way. Let’s talk about what it really means to love others without losing yourself in the process.
