🎙️ Episode 5: Understanding OCD — Intrusive Thoughts, Faith, and Finding VictoryIn this week’s episode, we’re joined by a special guest who shares her personal experience living with OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder) — an often misunderstood mental health condition that goes far beyond being “a little anxious” or “extra clean.”We dive deep into the realities of intrusive thoughts and compulsions, and how they can affect everyday life. We also talk about scrupulosity — when OCD takes aim at faith, morality, or spirituality — and how that can feel especially heavy in Christian circles.Together, we unpack what it’s like to navigate therapy, counseling, medication, and supplements, and the importance of finding what works for you. We also touch on how other people’s opinions (and misconceptions) can make the healing journey harder — and how to handle that with both grace and boundaries.Our guest shares her perspective on what victory looks like — both in the short-term (those small daily wins that add up) and the long-term (learning to live with peace, not perfection).And, of course, we end on a lighter note — with a fun question: What’s your favorite chick flick? 💕Whether you’ve been personally impacted by OCD or love someone who has, this episode offers compassion, understanding, and hope.🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube — and don’t forget to share your thoughts in the comments or message us with your own experience.Links & Mentions:Rohnda's Insta: https://www.instagram.com/beauty.in.the.real/Samantha's Insta: https://www.instagram.com/honestly_samantha0/Website: https://www.beautyinthereal.com/Resource mentioned by Emily:https://markdejesus.com/about/Emily's Blog: https://www.emilyclaire.co/blog
