In this episode of the Help Her Be Brave Podcast, we break the silence on the topics that are often swept under the rug—sex, shame, purity, and the culture around them. I’m joined by Heather Lawless, founder and CEO of Reliance Ministries and author of We Do Talk About It: Breaking the Silence on Sex, Shame, and Redemption.

Heather and I dive into why Christians often avoid these conversations, how toxic purity culture can shape our lives, and the real impact of shame on relationships, parenting, and faith. We discuss the importance of vulnerability, the value of safe spaces for sharing our stories, and how embracing our brokenness can lead to healing, redemption, and hope.

Plus, Heather shares powerful stories from her ministry and personal life, including experiences with sexual trauma, overcoming shame, and showing the transformative love of Christ to women facing unexpected pregnancies.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, silenced, or burdened by shame, this conversation will inspire you to speak up, break the cycle, and step into freedom and courage.
