Your relationships are not shaped primarily by what other people do or say. They are shaped by what you believe, what you think, and how you interpret what happens. If you have ever felt disconnected, resentful, overly responsible, or emotionally exhausted in your relationships, this episode will help you see why and show you where your power actually is.

You are already in a relationship you cannot leave.
The question is whether it is kind, honest, and supportive, or harsh, critical, and exhausting.

Most women never stop to examine what it actually feels like to live inside their own head. The thoughts on repeat. The tone of the inner voice. The assumptions about who they are and what they deserve. And yet, this inner relationship quietly shapes every other relationship they experience.

Many women think self-care means rest, boundaries, or better routines. But what if one of the most overlooked forms of self-care is learning to speak up. Not from anger. Not from fear. But from truth, clarity, and love.

Self-care is often misunderstood. It’s not just rest or saying no. It’s also doing what you said you would do. Follow-through is one of the most practical ways to build self-trust, reduce mental clutter, and live in alignment with your faith.

Once you make a decision, the next step is not more motivation.
It’s a plan.

In this episode, I’m continuing the conversation from decision-making as self-care and taking it one step further. We’re talking about planning as self-care and why making a plan is how you honor the decisions you’ve already made.

Indecision is exhausting, and it’s one of the most overlooked reasons women feel overwhelmed.

In this episode, I talk about why decision-making is a form of self-care, how decision fatigue drains your energy, and how to stop second-guessing yourself after you choose.

If you feel mentally tired, scattered, or stuck, this episode will help you decide once, trust yourself, and move forward with peace.

This episode dives into what it means to curate your digital world — not just your social media, but all of your digital input. Shanna teaches why it’s important to be intentional about what you consume online and how it impacts your thoughts, emotions, and actions. Using Proverbs 4:23 (“Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it”), she draws the parallel between nourishing your body with healthy food and nourishing your mind with uplifting content.
