She&#39;s the friend who always knows what to say. Her words carry hope, her presence shifts the atmosphere, and people leave her feeling better than when they came. She speaks life — but who is speaking life over her? In this powerful series finale, we&#39;re closing out the Friendship Archetypes Series with the Encourager Friend. We unpack the wound beneath the warmth, the loneliness of always pouring, and the invitation to let joy and honesty live together. We also look at Barnabas — the biblical Son of Encouragement — whose story reminds us that even great encouragers have limits, needs, and moments that cost them something. If you&#39;ve ever felt pressure to stay &#34;up&#34; when you&#39;re hurting, if you deflect when people ask how you&#39;re doing, or if encouragement has quietly become your armor — this episode is for you, Lifter. What we cover: → The strengths and wounds of the Encourager Friend → How she shows up in friendships and with God → Barnabas as the biblical archetype example → What she excels at and what to watch out for → Her growth invitation: receiving as well as giving 📖 Focus Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 5:11 🕯️ Grab the FREE 5-Day Devotional — &#34;When God Feels Far&#34; at <a href="https://latrice-lift-her-up.kit.com/7d3fb1eeaa" rel="nofollow">https://latrice-lift-her-up.kit.com/7d3fb1eeaa</a> — for the seasons when you&#39;ve been pouring out and need God to pour back in.

The Encourager Friend: You Speak Life, But Who's Speaking Life Over You? (Friendship Archetypes Series Finale)

She&#39;s the one who holds everyone together. She checks on everyone after a hard conversation, smooths over tension before it boils over, and keeps the group warm — often at the expense of her own voice and her own needs. In this episode of the Lift Her Up Podcast, we explore the Friendship Archetype of The Peacemaker Friend — where her gift comes from, what wounds often shape it, and how God wants to heal those roots so she can walk in peace freely, not fearfully. We unpack Abigail&#39;s story from 1 Samuel 25, the difference between being a peacemaker vs. a peacekeeper vs. a people pleaser, and what it looks like when the Peacemaker&#39;s gift flows from security in Christ instead of survival.

Are you the friend who always figures it out alone — and feels uncomfortable asking for help or support? In this episode of the Lift Her Up Podcast, we&#39;re diving into the Independent Friend archetype: the woman whose self-sufficiency has become both her superpower and her shield. We unpack the deeper wounds that fuel hyper-independence — including unmet needs, broken trust, and emotional self-protection — and explore how those patterns quietly affect your friendships, your community, and your walk with God. We also look at Jonah as a biblical example of how extreme independence can lead to isolation and resistance to God&#39;s direction. Topics covered: • The 6 signs you might be the Independent Friend • Hidden wounds behind independence as a survival strategy • How self-reliance can replace dependence on God • Why prayer becomes a report instead of a relationship • The difference between strength and surrender • A weekly challenge to practice leaning on God before you have it figured out This episode is for the woman who has pushed through everything — and is ready to ask what it&#39;s costing her.

Are you struggling to feel close to God despite knowing the Bible and praying regularly? In this episode, I talk about the 4 biggest obstacles killing your intimacy with God: lack of desire, poor communication, pride and dishonesty. We dive into why knowing about God isn’t enough to build a deep connection, how pride and fear create emotional walls, and why spiritual honesty is essential. Using biblical examples like Ananias and Sapphira, we can learn how vulnerability and authentic prayer and interactions can break down these barriers. If your faith feels dry or distant, this episode will give you practical, biblical steps to rekindle your passion for God and move into a fresh, intimate relationship with Him. ✨Subscribe to email list: (https://latrice-lift-her-up.kit.com/87def3b0dd)  Don’t forget to subscribe, share with someone who needs this, and leave a review to help others find this message!

🎧 Description:Have you ever felt like God went quiet just when you needed Him most? Like your thoughts and problems became louder than His voice? In this raw and honest episode, I share what God has been teaching me about commitment and consistency—not just in action, but in faith. As I approached my 30th birthday, I found myself reflecting on what I’ve achieved, what I’ve lost, and where I’ve doubted God. Through journaling, prayer, and some tough internal conversations, God revealed that my lack of results wasn’t about His absence—it was about my inconsistency in belief. We talk about:    •    What to do when God’s silence feels deafening    •    The connection between belief, obedience, and breakthrough    •    How to stay faithful when you see no fruit    •    Why inconsistency might be sabotaging your confidence    •    What it means to really have faith that works (James 2:17) If you’re in a season where nothing seems to be moving, this episode will help you reframe the plateau, rediscover purpose in the process, and recommit to showing up—even when it’s hard. 📝 Lifted Reflection Questions at the end to guide your prayer time and journaling this week! ⸻ ✨Like what you hear?

In this special Holy Week episode, I reflect on the Resurrection of Jesus through the story of the Road to Emmaus (Luke 24:13–34). After a powerful moment at the Museum of the Bible, I was reminded how easily we can miss Jesus when hopelessness clouds our faith. Let’s unpack how the disciples had information without revelation, why Jesus sometimes hides His identity, and how faith is reignited through spiritual sight and truth. This story will stir your heart and remind you: Jesus is always near—even when you can’t see Him.💭 Lifted Reflection:    1.

In today’s episode, I’m diving into the topic of *self-sabotage*—something so many of us struggle with, even when God gives us clear direction. When we treat our God ideas as small we minimize His gifts and we limit His power in our lives. Self-sabotage creeps in through perfectionism, procrastination, and imposter syndrome, creating a cycle of insecurity and isolation.  God has equipped us with the power and tools to succeed, but we need to believe in Him and ourselves. Let this be the season we stop fumbling our future and gambling with our gifts!  If this message encouraged you, don’t forget to like, share, subscribe.

In this episode, we dive into a topic that resonates with so many people: purpose and identity. Many of us are searching for clarity in our purpose, and today, we’ll explore how our purpose is inseparable from our identity in Christ.   I share some of my personal journey of seeking answers in the wrong places, like new age practices, and how God’s grace led me back to Him. We’ll talk about the dangers of trying to find purpose outside of God and the importance of understanding who we are in Christ before we can fully walk in our purpose.   Your purpose is to glorify God through your life and actions. Your unique gifts and assignments are meant to fulfill that purpose, but they begin with knowing your identity as a child of God.   If you’ve been asking, &#34;What’s my purpose?&#34;—start by learning your identity in Christ. Everything else will flow from that. 💌 Got questions or want to share your story?

In this episode, I discuss what the spirit of fear truly is and where it comes from. Referencing 2 Timothy 1:7 we uncover the true nature behind the spirit of fear. This spirit is traced back to the enemy starting in Genesis. We learn how the enemy has always used our senses—what we hear and see—to incite fear and doubt in our hearts. Join me as we learn practical ways to guard your heart, pray for boldness, and stand firm in God’s truth. Fear will not win! Be sure to like, share, and subscribe to the channel!

In this episode, we explore the story of the Rich Young Ruler in Mark 10:17-22, which challenges us to examine what we&#39;re holding onto that might be keeping us from fully following Christ. Are we willing to let go and make the necessary changes, or are we clinging to possessions, plans, or relationships?  This passage has revealed the struggle many of us face when God calls us to make difficult changes. Jesus promises that whatever we lose for His sake, we&#39;ll gain back a hundredfold. So, what are we really afraid of?  Join me as we tackle these questions and challenge ourselves to trust God&#39;s intentions.  If you have any prayer requests or need further insight, email me at Latriceliftherup@gmail.com.
