When life hurts, where do you turn?

Food. Busyness. Social media. Serial dating. Avoiding the hard things. We all have our "fix"- something that helps numb the pain, distract us from reality, or make us feel better for a moment.

But what happens when the fix isn't fixing anything?

In this heartfelt and honest episode of It's a Single Mom Thing, Sherry explores the difference between temporary relief and lasting healing. Building on last week's episode, Healing Is an Assignment, she dives into the coping mechanisms we often reach for when life feels overwhelming and asks a powerful question:

Can I trust God with the places I've been trying to manage myself?

Through personal reflections, practical insights, and biblical encouragement, you'll discover why some fixes quietly become substitutes for God, why healing requires surrender, and how true freedom begins when we stop managing our pain and allow God to transform it.

If you've ever found yourself running back to old patterns, struggling to let go, or wondering why healing feels so hard, this episode is for you.

Because painkillers have a purpose.

Band-aids have a purpose.

But eventually the wound has to be cleaned if it's going to heal.

You want God's best? Forget the rest. Let Him fix your fix.
