Ever struggled to find self-love amidst pain and trauma? Join me as we journey through the inspiring life story of my friend Crystal Swass, a relationship guru, published author, and radio personality. Born to a young, drug-addicted mother, Crystal's path to redemption serves as a beacon of resilience and self-discovery. Despite her turbulent childhood and teenage mistakes, she's emerged stronger, wiser and is now using her experiences to guide others navigating their personal struggles and relationships.
Together, Crystal and I unpack the significance of self-love, reflection, and recognizing the transformative power of pain. We delve into the biblical understanding of love and how selflessness and love shape our relationships. We explore the pitfalls of unhealed women expecting men to be their healers, leading to unhealthy dynamics in relationships. Crystal opens up about her nine-week devotional planner program, Anchored Ruby, designed to encourage intentional reflection and growth. We discuss the power of journaling, tuning in to the voice of God, and using our past traumas to facilitate healing and transformation.
Sit back and prepare to be moved as Crystal takes us through her story of grace, offering insights into how understanding our identities in Christ can help us make better life decisions. With a focus on healing, self-awareness, and forgiveness, this episode is a deep dive into personal growth, identity, and faith. So, tune in and find inspiration to begin your own journey of healing, self-discovery, and transformation.
