Host: Lisa Vanderveen
What if real healing doesn’t require striving?
In this episode, Lisa Vanderveen explores the difference between insight, breakthrough, and true healing — and why healing in body, soul, and spirit produces spontaneous growth, not effortful change.
Building on Angela Linville’s conversation about worth and stewardship, Lisa reframes healing as the quiet work God does beneath the surface, removing resistance and restoring capacity so alignment becomes natural rather than forced.
This conversation is for the woman who understands the truth, wants to live from it, and wonders why some areas of life still feel effortful. Lisa offers clarity, relief, and a deeply hopeful reframe: effort isn’t failure — it’s information.
