Description

BEYOND THE CRAVING- What do you do when you keep saying, “I’m going to change,” but you keep hearing the same shame tapes? In this convo with your 'Crave Coach' Dori Morelock, we talk about why it is so hard to change hardwired habits, what’s really underneath your 'crave behavior,' and how to invite God into the exact moments you usually check out, scroll, eat, drink, spend, or binge. You’ll hear Dori’s story of healing and loss, and how God led her to build tools that help women retrain their brains and walk in their calling instead of staying stuck in shame.

Key Takeaways

• Hardwired habits are often survival strategies that once helped you cope, which is why willpower alone is not enough to change them.
• Cravings are “smoke,” not the fire. Underneath the shopping, scrolling, eating, drinking, or numbing is a deeper unmet need like connection, comfort, or being seen.
• Real change comes from small, honest shifts over time as you invite God into your trigger times, tell the truth about your needs, and respond to cravings in new, healthier ways.

Listener Challenge
Name your “one thing” today: the crave behavior that came to mind as you listened. Then identify your main trigger time or trigger situation around it. This week, instead of trying to be perfect, choose one small change to your usual routine in that moment and invite Jesus into it on purpose. Ask Him, “What am I really needing right now?” and “What is one different choice I can make today?” Write down what you notice and how it changes your sense of shame, pressure, or peace.
