The Journey & The Process

In many faith communities, emotions are often misunderstood or suppressed. It's time we find a language to express how we feel in a healthy way. Let's create a safe space to acknowledge them and appreciate how we are created. Don't miss our next Hey Tabi Podcast where I talk with amazing therapist Emma Ward about this topic. 🙏

If you have a look at our brain via a functional MRI you can see pain. And physical pain and emotional pain register the same. And when we look at the brain of a victim of coercive control we can see traumatic brain injuries - and evidence of concussions much like that of a football player. Coercive control doesn't have to meet the physical assault threshold set by laws to be a physical assault. It's just harder to detect.

All abuse is physical abuse. Coercive control is abuse. Just because it's not illegal (yet - some laws are catching up) doesn't mean it's moral.

Happy first anniversary to the Hey Tabi podcast!!

We launched this podcast on 31 December 2024 as a way to have good conversations about faith and mental health and have the conversations out loud, with our actual lips, that the Church needs to have. We are so grateful for each listener and guest that has come to hang out with Tabi and talk about important topics. We've had amazing conversations with folks like Sheila Gregoire, Leslie Vernick, Elyse Fitzpatrick, Chris Moles, Greg Wilson, Matt Chandler, and so many others with more to come.

We're looking forward to 2026 and continuing to have such important conversations about things we should be talking about, out loud, with our actual lips, in the Church.
