In this episode of Priorities on Purpose, I continue my conversation with Natalie Runion, founder of Raised to Stay and author of Raised to Stay and The House That Jesus Built. This is part two of our discussion and we talk a lot about the orphan spirit, a term that might feel unfamiliar but touches on deep wounds of rejection, insecurity, and the longing to be seen. Natalie and I explore how the orphan spirit can manifest in different ways—from striving for approval to shrinking back in fear of rejection—and how it holds us back from living fully in our God-given purpose. This episode isn't just about identifying the problem but equipping you with scriptural truths and practical steps to break free from the lies that say you're not enough. If you've ever felt unseen, battled imposter syndrome, or struggled with feelings of worthlessness, this conversation will meet you where you are. Let this be your sign to lean into healing, trust God to rewrite your narrative, and step into your identity as His beloved daughter.
