Have you ever felt the weight of cravings so intense that they seem to dictate every decision you make? Angie Haskell, acclaimed author of "Sugar Coated: Finding Sweet Release from Cravings that Control Us," graces our podcast with her compelling story of triumph over the shackles of desire. She doesn't just share her narrative; she tears down the walls of shame and depression that often accompany the silent battles many Christian women face, from succumbing to food binges to the allure of retail therapy. Angie's southern wit and wisdom shine as she discusses her transformative journey of healing through faith, and how this path to recovery is laced with the power of community and the love of Christ.Strap in for a heart-to-heart on the raw struggles that come with temptation, the distorted beauty standards imposed by society, and the complex impact of familial influences on our self-image. Angie and I traverse the importance of 'sister circles' and how these networks of support offer more than just a shoulder to cry on—they provide a space for growth, accountability, and genuine accountability. Whether it's through Christian counseling, pastoral care, or the simple yet profound act of prayer, this episode is a treasure trove of insight for anyone seeking to navigate the treacherous waters of personal struggles, all while anchored firmly in faith and fellowship.Angie's Book & Favorites:Book: Sugar CoatedWebsite: angiehaskell.comRegeneration Ministries WebsiteBible: ESV Journaling BibleArteza acrylic paint markersBook: Desperate Diva Diaries Series
