The Words We Carry

Send us Fan Mail Sometimes the words that shape us most are the ones spoken years ago. Recently, I opened a few storage bins I had packed before college, filled with pictures, awards, letters, newspaper clippings, and pieces of a life I hadn’t looked at in years. What I expected to be a simple trip down memory lane became something much deeper. It made me think about the voices we carry with us. Some people speak words that tear us down. Others see something in us before we can see it in ourselves. And whether we realize it or not, those words can become part of the way we see ourselves for years. In this episode of Well-Made Woman, we’re talking about the power our words have, the voices we’ve given authority to shape our identity, and how to recognize the difference between what someone said about you and what God says is true about you. Because words matter. The ones spoken over us, the ones we repeat to ourselves, and the ones we choose to speak over someone else. You may never fully know how much your words become part of someone else’s story. Thank you for spending this time with me today.
