In this episode, Richard Young dismantles the myth that freedom should be “easy” if you’re doing it right. If you’ve been looking for a loophole, a hack, or a shame-free shortcut, this conversation reframes the journey: not as trying harder, but as thinking differently—and practicing it daily.

You’ll learn why numbing out is easy in the moment but costly over time, and how to build the resilient, shame-free habits that actually change your life: feeling your feelings, questioning fear, and renewing your mind with truth. Richard breaks down a simple rhythm for processing anxiety with God, taking thoughts captive (2 Cor. 10:5), and being transformed by the renewing of your mind (Rom. 12:2)—even when it’s uncomfortable.

If you’re ready to stop chasing “get-free-quick” and start walking in durable freedom, this one’s for you.
