Thank you again for speaking into our lives with insight & truth. Please pray that God would lead me to a qualified & trustworthy Christian counselor. I need a safe place to share the heartbreak of a hurtful relationship. ❤

Thank you so much for the information shared in all of your videos and podcasts. One thing Lisa says often in her communications is the importance of having wise counsel and a qualified Christian counselor to work through trauma and/or severely damaging relationships. Lisa often mentions how she doesn’t think she could have made it through her emotional journey (betrayal, loss, narcissism,etc.) without Jim, Joel, and the great friends she has had to help her through all her devastating pain. I have experienced a similar journey to Lisa, however, I have not had the financial resources to surround myself with qualified Christian counselors or expert theologians. I have lost most of my friend support because of the severity of the long term abuse I experienced. Most of my friends didn’t know how to go there. Over the last few years, hearing this advise from Lisa has been discouraging and frustrating rather than encouraging and inspiring. Many Christian counselors aren’t experts in narcissism. Most Christian counselors don’t except insurance -cash only. Most expert Christian counselor’s (with knowledge in narcissism) fees are extremely expensive and unrealistic for a person leaving a long term narcissistic relationship with no money. I believe this is the reality for many people who have left narcissistic, financially irresponsible, financially abusive relationships. I’d love to hear from this panel what someone should do if they don’t have financial resources. By the grace of God and through self-educating I have made my way through the hell of betrayal and the effects of narcissism, but I have had to do this on my own. It has been brutal. It doesn’t seem right, within the Christian community, that the only ones able to obtain quality Christian mental health care, with strong knowledge and understanding of Narcissism, are those with money. This reality can contribute to those feeling victimized and powerless as a result of abuse, feel further victimized by the inability to afford a qualified Christian counselor.

Enjoying that Lisa is now saying she’s bringing “the experience” vs “the issues”.

[@Thankful305]

Love that it's "the experience" and not "the issues" that's a great way to not stay a victim!!
However I kinda don't think this was "now".
Pretty sure this is in the past. Probably over a year ago.
Why? Because she doesn't have her engagement ring on, or her wedding band(It's pretty huge! hard to miss ~ 💍
So yeah she's done this recording over a year ago.
OR God forbid 😣, this is new and she's fallen into another unhealthy relationship with her new husband --which I DO NOT THINK that is the case.

I didn’t know what I didn’t know, until now

[@lizstephan1320]

Truth! Very good words! But um, was it just me, or was the lighting and sound very distracting and poor compared to your usual podcasts? I did not enjoy that echo, and poor Joel was nearly invisible! Whatever you pay somebody to do your sets, sound and lighting, they are worth it! Please bring them back. Your podcast videos are GREAT!
