3 Toxic Seasons vs. Toxic Cycles: How to Unblock Your Life for 2026 | Breathe Podcast Ep 270

Are you in a toxic season or a toxic cycle? In this powerful episode of the Breathe podcast, Pastor Debleaire Snell, David Person, and Kirk Nugent open the final tool in the "Prosperity Kit": Prosperity Blockers.


We often look for external reasons why we aren't thriving, but the biggest obstacles are often internal. From indifference to suffering, to the "sluggard" mentality, to the danger of avoiding hard conversations—we break down exactly what restrains God's blessings in your life.


Join us as we discuss the difference between "seasons" and "cycles," the high cost of maintaining appearances, and why vulnerability is the secret key to true wellness. Let’s close out 2025 strong and prepare for a prosperous New Year!


Key Takeaways

- Indifference is a Blocker: How ignoring the suffering of others when you have the power to help can circumvent your own blessings.

- The Cost of Hiding: Why concealing sins and struggles requires more energy than actually healing from them.

- The Sluggard Mentality: Prosperity requires effort; opportunity often looks like hard work.

- Hard Conversations: Why "waiting for things to work themselves out" is a myth that destroys relationships.

- Seasons vs. Cycles: How to identify if you are just going through a rough patch or if you are stuck in a behavioral loop that requires repentance.
