212 | Do You Feel Like You're Wearing a Mask? How to Heal While Keeping Your Abortion a Secret

In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into a fear that so many women silently carry:

 

“If I begin to seek healing from my abortion, will everyone find out my secret?”

 

Friend, if that thought makes your stomach turn or your heart race, I want you to know—you are not alone. This secret may feel like the one you planned to take to the grave, but today I want to offer you something powerful: hope.

 

Healing is possible, and no, it doesn’t require you to bare your soul to the world.

 

If you’ve ever hidden behind a smile, avoided meaningful relationships, or isolated yourself out of fear that someone might “find out,” this episode was made for you.

 

I’m sharing from my heart—and from my experience—not just to tell you healing is available, but to show you how to begin that journey safely, quietly, and authentically before God.

 

Whether you've been silently struggling for months or decades, I pray that today marks a shift—one where the mask starts to come off and the healing begins.

 

In this episode, we talk about:

• The secret fear so many post-abortive women carry
• Why emotional “masks” feel necessary—and how they hold us back
• How healing begins with repentance (just between you and God)
• The Biblical beauty of boundaries (not everyone needs to know)
• Where to find confidential, Christ-centered support
• Why you don’t have to tell the world in order to be set free

 

You don’t owe anyone your story—but you do owe yourself the freedom Jesus died to give you.

Let’s start tearing down those walls together, one brick at a time.

 

You’re seen. You’re loved. And yes, there is healing waiting for you.
