Have you ever felt like you’ve done all the right things spiritually, but you’re still carrying anxiety, fear, or emotional weight that won’t lift? If that hits close to home, this episode is for you.

Today I’m sitting down with my friend Heather O’Brien, a prophetic healing coach with an incredible testimony of walking through trauma, depression, and deep anxiety—and experiencing real, lasting healing. Heather shares how hearing God’s voice became the foundation for her freedom and introduces a powerful concept she calls “spiritual pets”—those subtle, negative influences we sometimes allow to hang around, not realizing how much they’re affecting our identity and peace.

We talk about the difference between managing symptoms and getting to the root, and why things like anxiety—though common—are often spiritual battles in disguise. Heather opens up about her journey of emotional and spiritual detoxing, why naming what you’re battling is so important, and how believers have real authority to confront and overcome these strongholds. She also shares the simple daily prayer that keeps her grounded and invites God’s conviction and healing in the most tender and powerful ways.

If your heart has been heavy, if you’re longing to be whole, or if you just need a fresh reminder of what’s possible when you partner with God, I pray this conversation breathes hope into your soul. Freedom is available. And it’s closer than you think.
