On the show, Arianna shares the taboos and stigmas around mental health, still experienced within communities of faith. She also shares deeply about the Christian response to just “trust God,” and how damaging this can be, when individuals have experienced God as someone who has let them down. How do you trust God after disappointment and trauma? And how can we create safe spaces for beginning open conversations with God when we are struggling? Arianna discusses this and more on the show.
