About

Sisters we are BACK! Thank you for bearing with us during our break last week as we here in Middle TN dealt with major flooding and cleanup in our area. If you think about it, send up a prayer for our neighbors and friends who are still in recovery! God is good and He made His people to be resilient! We are back with a 2 part series called truth>toxicity! We are here to shed light on many toxic mindsets, relationships, and cultural norms that could be toxic to our spirit. We are NOT here to give glory to toxic nature, rather, overcome it with the TRUTH of God's word! On today's episode, we explore toxicity with ourselves and with our relationships in our lives. Here are some sure-fire signs of toxicity in your life (these and so many more): Signs you may have a toxic relationship with yourself: You don’t show yourself grace You self-medicate or self soothe When the truth of God is for everyone but you You serve/give to others to the point of burnout (saying yes too much) You ignore your body, mind and spirit when triggered you give into spiraling toxic thoughts Replacing your perspective on the situation with the truth of the situation. Signs you may be in an unhealthy relationship with others: You hide things/Dishonesty You always give in to their way, or they always give into yours Unnecessary Guilt One-sided effort They put you down/you feel drained You’re co-dependent They make you feel insecure You feel the need to strategize everything, down to conversations Abusive You change yourself to be what they want: appearance, opinions, beliefs You’re unhappy There’s more dread than positive anticipation You justify bad behavior for them or yourself Constant testing of boundaries You feel unsettled in your spirit More verses and notes at https://thechosengirl.com/blogs/news/season-4-episode-8-truth-toxicity-pt-1 --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/chosengirl/support
