In this deeply personal and hope-filled episode of the Choose to Think Inspirational Podcast, Victoria invites listeners into an honest conversation about self-control, grief, surrender, and the quiet exhaustion that comes from trying to do life in our own strength.
Drawing from her own experiences—memories of her father, moments of self-pity, struggles with temptation, and the pressure of performance—Victoria explores what it truly means to be a vessel for God’s love rather than the source of it. She unpacks how striving hardens the heart and exhausts the mind, while surrender opens the door to healing, restoration, and renewed joy.
Blending Scripture, lived wisdom, and accessible brain science, this episode gently reframes failure—not as disqualification, but as a place where God’s grace can flow most freely. Victoria reminds us that our worth is not earned through achievement, that brokenness does not cancel calling, and that humility and accountability are powerful pathways to emotional and spiritual healing.
The episode closes with a heartfelt prayer and an invitation to step out of self-reliance and into the steady, sustaining presence of God.
