E141: That's Just Not True [Replacing Lies with God's Truth]-- Erica Ligenza Gwynn
Erica Gwynn and Erin Cuccio explore the themes of truth, lies, and the impact of societal beliefs on personal identity and faith. Erica shares her journey as a mother and author, discussing the lies that many women believe, such as 'God won't give you more than you can handle' and 'You are enough.' They delve into the importance of rest, the dangers of hustle culture, and the difference between empowerment and true freedom. The conversation emphasizes the need to replace lies with biblical truths and encourages listeners to seek a deeper relationship with God.

- Rest is essential and not a sign of laziness.

- Replacing lies with truth requires intentionality and grace.
- Finding the root of our beliefs can help us understand and heal.
