Im going to share an except from my next book, Discovering His Wings

I spent a lot of time in cultures where people promoted s*xual liberation as healing, breaking free from old paradigms and expanding your consciousness

Frequently in these cultures the book s*x at dawn was cited as the reason humans aren’t meant to be monogamous. I have been told that we are wired more like bono monkeys on several occasions

because I am more conservative, I frequently heard that I was feeding into the patriarchy, living in outdated belief systems, not liberated from attachment and therefore wasn’t free.

But what wasn’t talked about in these cultures is the psychic, spiritual and emotional toll that casual intimacy take on the nervous system. There are energetic, somatic and lasting psychic effects that take place long after the moment has ended. The nervous system remembers.

As an HSP with an anxious attachment system, a one night stand literally feels like death

The nervous system is wired to crave safety over Adrenaline and security over the unknown. Taking an unpredictable emotional ride is the fastest way into dysregulation

Over a decade ago burning man completely changed my life and I’m so so so grateful for the experiences there! I talk a lot about my time there in my book Discovering My Wings.

But I’ve realized the traditional Christian values that I grew up with provide a container for safety structure and discernment for emotional, physical and spiritual security.

The most interesting part…As I’ve spent my time and energy investing in Jesus, I’ve experienced more freedom and liberation than I ever knew was possible

Perhaps TS Elliot said it best

We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.

Perhaps I didnt need to be liberated! Maybe I just need to embrace that values that had always brought my nervous system safety and stability

As My friend Laura Elizabeth shared -We are free when we are honoring our souls and not doing what others expect of us.

Highly sensitive people don’t do anything casually. It’s not the way we are designed

Men who are HSPs present very differently than you might think!

04/07/2026

HSPs can present very differently than what you might assume! It’s not necessarily someone crying often.

Here are some other factors I look for and consider

The treatment plan is different for HSPs based on their nervous system

Traditional therapy and medication often doesn’t work

I’ve learned this past season that Following Jesus is not for the faint of heart. It will require things of you that you might not enjoy. You will have to change your life! You will have to give up things you cared about and were important to you by earthly standards. God will redirect your path and your life might actually feel unrecognizable….AND the payoff will be more peace and joy than I ever knew was possible. It doesn’t mean life gets easier, but it does mean life gets better!

While on my walk with Jesus I decided to join a ministry school and get discipled. I had the privilege of walking the stage and graduating from one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. At some point I’ll share more but for now these are my greatest take aways

If we are to truly live in the image and likeness of Jesus we must work on ourselves. The work we do is to be a clearer channel for God to work through us. When we are operating out of wounds and traumas our unconscious mind is running the show instead of the voice of God

Don’t carry offense. It keeps us from union with God. When you are hurt or upset with someone ask a lot of questions. Go low and have brave conversations. Step into radical forgiveness, it leads to freedom and deeper union with God

Ask for feedback about how people experience you. We all have blind spots we cant see. Be open and willing to adjust for those you love.

Live in recklessly in love honor and humility without fear of the cost.

Love freely AND guard your heart. Not everyone will earn the trust to have access to your inner world and heart. You can still show up as radical love with boundaries

We are here to serve, but our service must come from overflow!! The most important relationship we have is with God then ourselves and once those buckets are full we can serve from a full cup

God designed us for a purpose. Don’t let the favor of man lead. Allow him to direct your path! It’s always better than what the mind creates

Build family wherever you go!

We are here to bring Heaven to earth! Heaven isn’t a far off destination!

The nervous system is the key for working with trauma and high sensitivity

I’m not sure that we can recover the benefits of therapy until the nervous system is regulated

03/20/2026

We are so socially conditioned to think of sensitivity as a weakness! I deeply believe one day we will know sensitivity as a propound gift!

03/18/2026

I tried this on and it’s fascinating

03/17/2026

Sometimes nervous system activation is just growing and a new work being done in us!

It’s important to distinguish what’s happening when we get super uncomfortable

03/16/2026

We can listen to the voice in our head and we won’t get very far! It usually turns into a wrestling match of shame or guilt or something wrong

Or we can wrestle with God and he can illuminate what’s there to be seen

I went through a period of using the hash tag Jesus calling and people would reach out to me to tell me that I shouldn’t be reading it

I made this video a while ago but it feels appropriate to share today@on 2/22/26

If a book can keep me connected to Jesus in the midst of the worst trauma I’ve been through then I have to look at the fruit of that

Very grateful for this connection in a very hard season!!
