In this powerful and deeply personal episode, I’m joined by my sister, Colleen McCoy, for an unscripted conversation that dives into our shared journey of healing, redemption, and breaking generational cycles. Growing up in the midst of trauma, dysfunction, abuse, and perfectionism, we each faced overwhelming pain and coped in very different ways—my sister turned to addiction, while I sought validation through perfectionism, people-pleasing, and relationships. But God had other plans.
Join us as we open up about our childhood struggles, the heartbreak of divorce, and the incredible ways God has redeemed our lives, marriages, and families. We talk about the impact our past has had on our parenting, the challenges of raising children after trauma, and how we’re breaking free from the chains of addiction, worthlessness, and people-pleasing. This is an honest, raw, and emotional episode about hope, healing, and the life-changing power of God’s grace.
Whether you’ve faced trauma, walked through divorce, or are fighting to break free from the pain of your past, this episode is for you. God can and will redeem your story—just like He did for us.
Key Takeaways:
- How childhood trauma shaped our lives and the different ways we coped
- Our experiences with divorce and how God brought healing and restoration
- The challenges of parenting after trauma and breaking generational cycles
- How God can turn even the darkest parts of our stories into purpose and redemption
Listen now and be encouraged to trust in God’s redemptive power for your life!
May the Lord bless you.
xoxo,
Danielle & Colleen
