449: YOU ARE NOT ENOUGH. Stop Hiding in Isolation. DawnCheré Wilkerson Opens Up About Walking the Furnace of Infertility, Emotional Regulation, Healing the Orphan Spirit, and the Vulnerability Lie No One Talks About

You’ve been taught vulnerability is strength, but what if that’s half the truth—and it’s costing you more than you realize? This week, DawnCheré Wilkerson joins me to dismantle the hidden toll of isolation. She shares how walking through infertility, life’s furnace, and unsurfaced grief fractures the soul, and how secrets rob you of belonging before you even realize it. DawnCheré exposes why vulnerability isn’t a spotlight; it’s a sanctuary that demands integrity. She unpacks the orphan spirit every believer must resist, warns against idolizing therapy as the endpoint, and offers a path forward: a refusal to run, safety in community, and the spiritual grit to stay alive. If you’re tired of pretending you’re fine…if your pain feels invisible…and if you’ve mistaken therapy for healing, this episode is your call to come home.

448: Stop Running from Your Life. Terry Crist Reveals Secrets That Fracture Your Soul, Healing the Orphan Spirit, and the Idolization of Therapy

You’ve been told therapy is the answer to everything. That if you just unpack hard enough, you’ll finally be free. But what if that’s not the full story? This week, Terry Crist joins me to challenge beliefs that cause deeper destruction. He’s seen how long-standing secrets fracture the soul, how the orphan spirit grows in Christian homes, and how many believers never outgrow wounded identity, even into legacy years. In this conversation, Terry decodes why running away from truth never works, how idolizing therapy can drain godly authority, and why healing is never finished, even if you’ve been in the room for decades. He brings the fight where healing meets holiness, and shows how to refuse lie-lay, stop hiding, and step into belonging. If you’ve ever carried a secret, felt disconnected in the Church, or believed your wounds had an expiry date, you need to hear this episode.

445: A Neurosurgeon’s Take on Addiction, Quantum Physics, and Brain Change. Dr. Lee Warren on Refusing Your Own Demise

You’ve been told addiction is a disease or a moral failing. That emotional pain is separate from your brain wiring. And that quantum physics is just science fiction jargon. This week on Win Today, Dr. Lee Warren—a neurosurgeon, Iraq War vet, and author—pushes back on all of that. He exposes how unraveling addiction requires more than therapy—it demands restructuring your neural pathways. He digs into how neurodivergent brains function, why most spiritual advice fails, and how quantum physics reveals that your brain isn't a victim—it’s a participant. Lee will show you why normal isn't enough, why passive hope is setting you up for failure, and why self‑brain‑surgery—rewiring your neural patterns—is the ultimate resistance. If you're wrestling with addictive patterns, feeling trapped in mental loops, or want hard science fused with spiritual hope, this conversation will light a fire under you. This isn't motivation—it's neuroscience applied. It's the answer buried inside your skull. Episode Links Show Notes Buy my NEW BOOK "Healing What You Can't Erase" here!

442: How Bad Theology Fuels Mental Health Struggles. Kris Vallotton Unpacks Breaking Free from Spiritual Oppression

This week on Win Today, I’m joined by Kris Vallotton for a raw conversation about how well-meaning but bad theology is distorting our view of emotional health and creating systems of self-oppression inside the Church. From the stigma surrounding therapy and medication to the over-spiritualization of trauma, Kris pulls no punches. Together, we explore why real transformation can’t just be personal—it must be systemic. Because if the environment around you is sick, your health will always hit a ceiling. If you’ve ever been shamed for struggling, blamed for being anxious, or silenced when asking hard questions about healing, this conversation will set you free. It’s time to confront the beliefs that keep us stuck—and recover a theology that makes room for the whole person: body, soul, and spirit.
