This week, Jeanette is peeling back the layers on a sneaky stronghold: pride that looks like independence, excellence, and control. From launching programs without striving to letting go of perfectionism, she’s sharing the deep heart work God’s doing around what it really means to be humble—and trust Him fully.

If you’ve ever thought “I’ll just figure it out myself,” or avoided asking for help because you didn’t want to seem weak… girl, this episode is for you.

✨ “God can’t fill what’s already full. Humility makes room for Him to move.”

In This Episode:

✅ How pride hides behind independence and self-reliance

✅ Why surrender is a requirement—not just a suggestion

✅ The difference between stewardship and control (yes, even in leadership)

✅ How to launch, lead, and grow without striving

✅ Why identity > image (and how to know the difference)

✅ A prayer activation to expose hidden pride and reclaim God’s peace

📖 Bible Verses Mentioned:

  • James 4:6 – “God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.”

  • Psalm 51:17 – “A broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.”

  • John 15:5 – “Apart from Me you can do nothing.”

  • 1 Peter 5:6 – “Humble yourselves under God's mighty hand…”

05:00 – The hidden burden of control
