48 | Do You Feel Stuck In Patterns You Can’t Break?
Aug 20, 202624 min
Have you ever found yourself thinking, “Why do I keep doing this?” Maybe you keep falling into the same relationship patterns. Maybe you struggle with anger, people-pleasing, shutting down, negative self-talk, fear of rejection, or difficulty trusting others. You know you want to change. You've prayed about it. Maybe you've been to therapy, read the books, listened to podcasts, and tried to use willpower to break the cycle. And yet…you still find yourself repeating the same patterns. What if you're not broken? In this episode, we're talking about why childhood trauma can create patterns that follow us into adulthood—and why recognizing those patterns is not a reason to shame yourself. It's an opportunity to begin healing. I'll share part of my own story and what I've learned about recognizing the difference between who I am and what I learned to do to survive. You'll discover: Why some unhealthy patterns may have started as survival responses Why recognizing a pattern doesn't mean you're failing How trauma can influence the way we think, respond, and relate to others Why healing requires more than willpower How renewing your mind can help create new patterns Why healing happens in stages rather than all at once How to begin responding differently when an old pattern shows up Why your past does not have to determine your future How God can lead you toward greater peace, joy, freedom, confidence, and energy Scripture Romans 12:2 — “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” >> Join my Insider List! https://bit.ly/3Qza5HE >> Schedule a Rooted & Risen Coaching Session . >> Grab a set of “My Identity In Christ” reflection cards. ✨ Identity in Christ Reflection Cards TEAL- https://lesliechermak.myflodesk.com/teal MAUVE: https://lesliechermak.myflodesk.com/mauve >> Visit Website: https://lesliechermak.com/

47 | You Are Not Your Shame: Healing From Childhood Sexual Abuse Through Christ
Aug 13, 202615 min
Why do we still struggle with shame even after we've accepted God's forgiveness? For many women who have experienced childhood sexual abuse, shame feels like a constant companion. It whispers lies that you're damaged, unworthy, and beyond repair. But those lies were never spoken by God. In today's episode, Leslie shares part of her own healing journey and explores what Scripture says about shame, identity, and the transforming power of forgiveness. You'll discover why healing happens in stages, why forgiveness is about your freedom—not excusing what happened—and how Jesus carried both your sin and your shame on the cross. If you've ever wondered whether true freedom is possible, this conversation will remind you that your past does not define your future. In Christ, healing, hope, and restoration are possible. In This Episode You'll Learn Why shame is one of the deepest wounds after childhood sexual abuse. How shame first appeared in Scripture and why we still hide today. The difference between guilt and shame. Why your identity is found in Christ—not in what happened to you. What biblical forgiveness really means (and what it doesn't). Three practical steps to begin releasing shame and moving toward freedom. Scriptures Mentioned Psalm 34:4-5 Genesis 3:10 John 8:32 Hebrews 12:2 Psalm 139:14 Romans 8:1 2 Corinthians 5:17 Journal Prompts Lord, where has shame been shaping how I see myself instead of Your truth? Is there someone I need to begin surrendering into Your hands through forgiveness? What is keeping me from taking that first step? What truth from Your Word do You want me to believe about yourself today? Encouragement Healing isn't a destination you reach overnight. It is a journey of continually turning your eyes back to Jesus. As you walk with Him, shame loses its grip, forgiveness becomes possible, and your identity is rooted in the One who calls you redeemed. Remember: Those who look to Him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame.

45 | You Were Made for More Despite Your Childhood Trauma
Jul 9, 202616 min
Have you ever wondered if your past has disqualified you from the life God intended for you? After experiencing childhood sexual abuse, many women believe their story is defined by shame, pain, and brokenness. But God's Word tells a different story. In this episode, Leslie shares a personal story of God's faithfulness and explores the remarkable story of Ruth—a woman whose life began with loss and uncertainty but became part of God's incredible plan of redemption. Ruth didn't know where God was leading her. She simply chose faithfulness one step at a time. Her obedience led her from being a foreign widow to becoming the great-grandmother of King David and an ancestor of Jesus Christ. Just like Ruth, you may not be able to see the entire path ahead, but God is already at work, redeeming your story and preparing you for the purpose He has uniquely designed for you. If you've ever questioned whether God could still use your life, this episode is a reminder that your past does not determine your future. God is a Redeemer, and He delights in bringing beauty from brokenness.
