How to Pursue Purity without Pretending You're Not Struggling

Hey Queens of Purpose,

Episode 4: Leading While Longing: How to Pursue Purity without Pretending You’re Not Struggling | Girls Anthem Unplugged

In this raw and transparent episode, I open up about a recent moment of temptation—how I almost fell back into masturbation on June 22nd—and the way God faithfully met me in the middle of it. Through the lens of 1 Corinthians 10:13, I share how the Holy Spirit provided a way out, and what that moment revealed about my heart, my body, and my ongoing pursuit of purity.

Whether you're a leader or simply someone trying to walk with God, this conversation is for you. I walk through 4 practical steps for how to respond when temptation comes knocking, and why pretending you're not struggling only delays your healing. I also share a pivotal experience from 2022 that changed how I pray for myself—and for others.

This episode is a call to pray for your leaders, support them with compassion, and embrace your own process without shame.
