Stasi welcomes her dear friend Becky Allender on today’s podcast to discuss story work and the healing that can come through it. Story work is a way of honoring our life’s story and the ways it has shaped us and engaging the places we need care, compassion, and mercy. If this feels new to you, Becky also offers a simple place to start. Friends, each of us desires to be seen and known, and giving a voice to our story is a beautiful level of self-care that expands our hearts for Jesus to come and compassionately give us more freedom through healing.
