Ep. 87 Finding Peace in Surrender | A Healing Journey with Caroline Dooner

But Jesus Drank Wine & Other Stories That Kept Us Stuck

In this inspiring episode, former New Age practitioner and author, Caroline Dooner, joins us for a third time (check out episodes #57 & 58 for her first two appearances with us) as she opens up about her incredible journey of healing and the profound shift in her perspective on life. She candidly discusses her previous belief that controlling and healing every aspect of her life was necessary, a mindset that ultimately became overwhelming and daunting.

Caroline shares about a pivotal moment in her life—a significant dental health challenge—that led her to surrender to God's plan. This experience helped her realize that healing doesn't require perfection. Instead, it calls for trust and peace in the Lord. This newfound understanding brought a profound shift in her approach to healing and life.

Join us as we chat with Caroline about the difference between her work before and after her spiritual conversion, emphasizing how God's guidance now plays a central role in her life. She discusses her journey of embracing change, finding authenticity, and surrendering to God's plan. Caroline also shares how she has overcome internal chaos, navigated misunderstandings, and dealt with unpopularity by staying true to herself.

Throughout our conversation, Caroline highlights the importance of embracing nuance, asking questions, and finding joy in nature. She emphasizes the value of disconnecting from technology to reconnect with oneself and the world around us.
