In this episode Carrie talks about the need to increase the intention behind psychological safety in the realms of sensitive and vulnerable conversations. How authority needs to ensure they are accountable as much as those who are serving them, and how we need to reevaluate our own pedestals for people who have abused power. Although this is directed at the church, the concepts have been learned and proven to be great solutions in other more modern industries where legalities are taken seriously and minorities are treated with respect and value. To the vulnerable and the hurting, this one is for you.

Building Cases
‘Building Cases’ - In this episode, Carrie looks at how quickly we can build cases and the detrimental damage it can cause for an individual. She challenges those in authority as much as those in the pews, for authority can easily lose accountability, knowing those with the power should be fighting for the vulnerable. How many times have we all mistaken a story, and run with it, without doing our research?

Gaslit
‘Given the current climate of the church and church hurts, Carrie tackles the challenges the concerns of gas lighting behaviour amidst the church. Whether people are wishing to skip over the problem straight to the fix-it valve, or refusing a culture of feedback, we are beginning to see the church be recalibrated into a different space. How do we avoid gas lighting those who came to help build a church in the first place, and how do we avoid the pitfalls of hierarchy? It isn’t cancel culture. It isn’t refusal to attend at all. The solution is within our reach.’

Embrace Your Gethsemanes
Carrie discusses the importance of facing difficult times. Jesus' demonstration of processing pain in the Garden of Gethsemane the night before his crucifixion became a recorded example of how we take the toughest questions to God. This was recorded at Magdalene Hope's annual women's conference in Bakersfield, California, in October 2023.

Remove Your Cloak

Or are we hindering our future by gaining validation on the stories of victory?
