Stop Spending to Feel Better is officially available!

If you’ve ever found yourself shopping because you were stressed, tired, bored, overwhelmed, or just needed something to make you feel better for a little while, I created this for you.

This is not a budgeting course.

We’re going underneath the spending and looking at what may be happening **before** you buy: your thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and what you may actually need in that moment.

And you can complete the entire course in less than one hour.

I designed it to feel less like sitting through a course and more like **having a coaching session with me**. I’ll walk you through a real spending situation, ask you questions, help you identify your pattern, uncover what may be driving it, and show you what to do differently the next time the urge to spend shows up.

By the end, you’ll have a simple process you can actually use in real life.

If you’ve been saying, “I need to stop doing this,” this is a good place to start.

Does “love keeps no record of wrongs” mean you have to forget what someone did to you?

Someone asked me this after my Reel about why the Bible never tells us to forgive and forget. And it’s a good question!

In 1 Corinthians 13:5, Paul teaches that love keeps no record of wrongs.

But does that mean you have to pretend someone never hurt you? Does it mean you have to immediately trust them again?

No.

There’s a difference between remembering what happened and keeping a running list of someone’s mistakes to use against them.

You can forgive someone without constantly bringing up their past to punish them, while still recognizing that their behavior has damaged your trust.

And let’s not forget what Paul says in the very next verse.

1 Corinthians 13:6 tells us that love does not rejoice in wrongdoing but rejoices in the truth.

Love doesn’t require you to ignore the truth about how someone treats you.

You can love someone, forgive them, and still have boundaries.

Forgiveness doesn’t automatically restore trust. And keeping no record of wrongs doesn’t mean you have to keep giving someone opportunities to hurt you.

❤️ If you’ve spent years overlooking how people treat you, ignoring your own feelings, and putting everyone else’s needs ahead of yours just to keep the peace, take my FREE Back to You Assessment.

The Bible never said you have to forgive and forget.

How many times have you heard someone say, “If you really forgave them, you wouldn’t keep bringing up what they did”?

Or, “The Bible says you have to forgive and forget.”

No, it doesn’t.

The Bible teaches us to forgive, but it never commands us to erase our memory of what someone did to us.

And when God says He remembers our sins no more (Hebrews 8:12), that doesn’t mean He loses His memory. It means He doesn’t hold those forgiven sins against us.

You can forgive someone and still remember what happened.

You can release the desire for revenge and still recognize that a relationship is no longer safe or healthy for you.

You can wish someone well and still have boundaries.

Remembering what happened doesn’t mean you haven’t forgiven them. And forgiveness doesn’t require you to ignore what you’ve learned.

If you’ve spent years making excuses for other people, ignoring your own feelings, and putting everyone else’s needs ahead of yours just to keep the peace, you may have lost touch with yourself along the way.

Could your chronic overworking actually be a trauma response?

Sometimes what we call faithfulness is really a fear of slowing down, disappointing people, or no longer being needed.

You say yes when you’re already exhausted. You feel responsible for keeping everybody else comfortable. And when you finally sit down to rest, you feel guilty because there’s always something else you could be doing.

In Christian culture, we can become so accustomed to serving others that we don’t recognize when our overworking may be rooted in fear rather than devotion.

But here’s what I want you to remember:

God’s love for you is not tied to how much you accomplish.

You don’t have to exhaust yourself to prove your worth. Rest is not a reward you have to earn after you’ve given everybody else everything you have.

And if you’ve spent so much time being the one who does everything for everybody that you don’t even feel like yourself anymore, it’s time to recognize the pattern that may be keeping you stuck.

Do you miss you?

Maybe you can’t pinpoint when things changed. You just know you don’t laugh like you used to. You don’t enjoy things the same way. And somewhere along the way, you stopped knowing what you wanted.

You don’t need to go backward and become who you used to be.

You can rediscover who you are now.

Eating when you’re not actually hungry? It may be worth paying attention to what’s happening right before you reach for food.

Emotional eating can sometimes become an automatic response to stress, loneliness, boredom, frustration, or feeling overwhelmed.

Before judging yourself for the craving, pause and ask:

Am I physically hungry?

If yes, eat. 😂 We don’t have to make everything deeper than it is.

But if the answer is no, ask:

What am I feeling right now?
What do I actually need?

Then bring that to God.

The goal isn’t to make food the enemy. It’s learning to recognize when you’re physically hungry versus when reaching for food may have become an automatic way of responding to something else.

And sometimes there’s an even bigger pattern underneath it.

You’ve gotten so used to taking care of everybody else, handling what needs to be handled, and pushing through that you’ve stopped paying attention to you.

If you’ve been thinking, “I don’t even feel like myself anymore,” take my free Back to You Assessment. It can help you start recognizing the pattern that may be keeping you from feeling like yourself.

Feeling emotionally numb or disconnected? Try these simple grounding techniques with me.

When you feel emotionally shut down or disconnected, it can be tempting to force yourself to “snap out of it.”

Instead, try slowing down and reconnecting with what’s happening around you right now.

In this 60-second grounding exercise, we use:

🧊 Cold sensation
🌬️ Slow breathing
🤲 Alternating taps
👀 Noticing what you can see around you

You don’t have to decide how you’re supposed to feel afterward. Just notice what you notice.

But if this goes beyond one difficult moment, and you’ve been thinking, “I just don’t feel like myself anymore,” I want you to pay attention to that.

My free Back to You Assessment can help you start identifying the patterns that may have caused you to lose yourself somewhere along the way.

Keep putting off your own goals even though you know they matter to you?

Procrastination isn’t always about laziness or lack of discipline. Sometimes the goal has gotten so big in your head that starting feels harder than it needs to be.

You’re thinking about the whole project, how far behind you are, how well you need to do it, and how much time you’ve already wasted.

So make the start smaller.

One sentence.
One email.
Ten minutes.
One thing you can be faithful with today.

But here’s something else I want you to pay attention to:

Are your own goals, needs, and desires always the things that get pushed to the bottom of the list?

Because that may be about more than procrastination.

If you’ve spent so much time taking care of what everyone else needs that you’re not even sure what happened to you, take my free Back to You Assessment.

It will help you start recognizing the patterns that may have caused you to lose yourself somewhere along the way.

NEW: The Back to You Assessment

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “I just don’t feel like myself anymore”?

You’re still showing up. Still handling what needs to be handled. Still being who people need you to be.

But somewhere along the way, you may have lost touch with you.

I created the Back to You Assessment to help you recognize the pattern that may be contributing to that disconnection.

Your responses will point toward one of four dominant patterns:

✨ The Overfunctioner
✨ The Peacekeeper
✨ The Performer
✨ The Controller

This isn’t a personality test, and it isn’t another label to carry. It’s an opportunity to recognize how you’ve been functioning and what it may be costing you so you can begin finding your way back to yourself.

The assessment is FREE and only takes a few minutes.

👉 Take the Back to You Assessment - https://go.psalmforthesoul.com/widget/quiz/buHTqDoMNYv4U0LuQUx7

When you finish, come back and tell me which pattern you got. Did your result sound like you?

It may be time to find your way back to you. 💚
