Identify You | Healing, Identity in Christ, Emotional Freedom, Confidence, God’s Plan, Journal Prompts
Top 5% Globally Ranked Podcast for Christian Women Healing from Emotional Trauma
Have you ever felt like your past disqualified you from purpose?
Are you smiling on the outside, but silently suffocating under shame, rejection, or unhealed trauma?
Do you know all the scriptures but still struggle to believe God really sees you—flawed, fragile, and still worthy?
If you whispered “yes,” sis… you’re in the right place.
This podcast will help you identify the emotional wounds distorting your identity so you can heal, become whole, and walk in Godfidence as Faith Slayers.
It’s time to break free from shame and reclaim your identity in Christ. You are created in God's image, his workmanship, his amazing daughter and it's time to break agreement with the lies trauma has taught you.
I am Shakera, widowed mother of two, Best-Selling Author, Transformation Speaker, and Christian Life Coach. For 14 years, I carried the weight of shame from childhood trauma and deep personal loss.
I tried avoiding my past because I thought it disqualified me and I needed to prove my worth.
I finally realized that God couldn’t heal what I didn’t reveal and if I wanted to move from brokenness to wholeness, I needed to identify who I was in Christ Jesus.
I went on a healing journey to face my truth and recover what trauma tried to steal. I developed spiritually, emotionally, and intentionally so I could show up confidently and build a Kingdom legacy. Now, I’m ready to help you go from emotionally wounded and disconnected from your identity… to whole, secure, confident Faith Slayers rooted in Christ.
If your heart is craving a clear, faith-filled roadmap from Broken 2 Whole — made for the Christian woman who refuses to stay stuck…
✨ To Renew the Mind - Replace shame with biblical truth
✨ To Restore the Heart - Heal wounds at the root
✨ To Reclaim Authority - Confidence in your God-given identity

Let’s get honest, sis.
You can read all the devotionals, serve every Sunday, and still feel stuck in shame. I know—because I’ve been there.
In this raw, redemptive episode, I open up about a part of my story I carried in silence for 15 years—having an abortion at 14 and silently believing it disqualified me from healing, wholeness, and even purpose. But God had something else to say.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re too broken to be whole or too guilty to be free, this episode is for you.
Inside, I’m sharing:
What spiritual freedom really looks like (spoiler: it’s not perfection)
How to release the shame that’s secretly been running your life
Scriptures that helped me rebuild my identity in Christ
3 practical ways to walk in freedom daily
A special invitation to the Heal, Grow, Glow Bootcamp 🌱
🗣️ Say it with me: Freedom looks good on me—and I’m done shrinking to fit the shame I’ve already been set free from.

Let’s keep it 100: the version of you you’ve been praying for? She’s not coming through more hustle.
She’s coming through healing.
In this episode, I’m calling out the real roadblocks—perfectionism, procrastination, control, and fear—that keep showing up as self-sabotage. We’re not blaming your ex, your past, or your circumstances anymore… because sis, it’s you vs. you now. And that’s good news—because you can change.
Here’s what we’ll unpack:
✅ The hidden root of self-sabotage (it’s deeper than you think)
✅ Why healing isn’t about performance—it’s about surrender
✅ 3 faith-fueled steps to break free and renew your mind
✅ Scriptures that anchor you when your emotions try to lie
✅ A powerful affirmation + journal prompt to activate your healing
📖 Romans 7:15, 2 Corinthians 3:17, Psalm 46:1 — we’re anchoring every truth in the Word.
If you’re done with the cycle of “I start strong, then fall off”… this one’s for you.
Let’s stop pretending and heal for real.

Sis… you’ve been strong for everybody else. But who’s strong for you?
In this episode, I’m talking to the woman who’s tired of being the helper, the healer, the backbone, the go-to—the one who never gets to break down, rest, or just be. And I’m here to tell you: strength doesn’t mean silence. And God never asked you to carry what He died to handle.
We’ll unpack:
💔 The hidden cost of always being “the strong one”
🔍 How survival mode is shaping your identity (and how to let it go)
🙏 Why surrender is the most powerful thing you can do
✨ A healing affirmation + deep journal prompt to help you finally lay your cape down
📖 Scripture-based truth to remind you: “His power is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Corinthians 12:9)
You don’t have to earn rest. You don’t have to perform healing. You don’t have to stay in survival mode just to prove you’re worthy.
It’s time to stop pretending and let God be your strength.

Not all grief is loud.
Some of it hides in your smile… your silence… your survival mode.
In this raw and redemptive episode, I’m shining a light on unspoken grief—the kind that never had a funeral. Whether it’s the end of a friendship, a missed opportunity, a dream deferred, or the version of you that never got to thrive—it still hurts. And until you feel it, you can’t fully heal it.
I’ll walk you through:
🖤 The grief that goes unnamed but keeps showing up in your life
📖 How suppressed pain impacts your faith, identity, and healing
💔 Why letting yourself grieve is a spiritual act of surrender
📝 A soul-deep affirmation + journal prompt to help you name and release hidden pain
Plus, I’ll give you a sneak peek into the Broken 2 Whole: Heal, Grow, Glow course—because it’s time to stop carrying grief like a badge and start healing from the inside out.
You’re not too emotional. You’re not too late. You just haven’t grieved it yet.

“Who told you that?” — God asked this in Genesis, and He’s still asking you today.
In this episode, I’m helping you confront the lies you’ve accepted as truth — the labels, wounds, and voices that never came from God but have shaped how you see yourself. Whether it was a parent, a pastor, a breakup, or a trauma… that voice doesn’t have the final say over your identity.
Together, we’ll unpack:
🧠 How identity lies get planted (and how to uproot them)
📖 Biblical truth that breaks the cycle of shame and insecurity
🗣️ A coaching-style challenge to replace the lie with God’s Word
💛 A powerful affirmation + journal prompt for identity healing
You don’t have to live under false labels any longer. It’s time to identify who you are — and who you are NOT.
Let’s get free.
