We continue discussing the lies and lines that our amazing listeners have been sharing with us. We begin discussing one of the lines we have been told which is to “Just trust God.” We take a deep dive into wrestling with God & surrender, pain & confusion, hope and goodness. We end with the balance of finding our part, finding our hope & trusting the process.

Disclaimer: This episode unpacks our faith and our beliefs. While we don't apologise for this, we do recognise that some people have experienced the damage that people can do under the banner of 'religion' We do not condone the abuse that religious institutions and people have inflicted over the years and we encourage anyone impacted by this to seek the support they deserve to heal.

This is the first of a 2 part series, where Alyssa and Skye pull apart the many lines or even down right stinking lies we have been told as singles, over the years (by very well intentioned but mislead people.) We discuss the classic lines like “You must be too much of this / not enough of this.” We debunk these black and white lines and try to find the authentic messy middle.

In this episode we discuss how traumatic events can shape us but how ultimately they are a part of our story, not the whole of our story. We discuss accepting the stages of grief, and the purpose of anger in not tolerating behaviours in others. We share how we process anger as women, so we don’t internalise it. We talk about seeing all sides to people and finding ways to accept what has happened in our lives without letting it define us.
