Stress isn’t just something that happens to us—it’s something that builds within us. In this episode, Aliza is joined by author, speaker, and President of Relationship Resources, Gaylyn Williams, for a deep conversation on what stress really is and how it shows up in our lives. They explore how even good things—like marriage, a new baby, or buying a home—can create pressure, and how our expectations, fears, and past trauma often amplify it. Gaylyn also shares powerful personal moments and practical wisdom on how to recognize what we’re carrying and how to refocus our hearts on Jesus in the middle of it all. This is a conversation that will help you see stress differently—and learn how to walk through it with clarity and faith.

Your trauma is not your fault—but your healing is your responsibility. In this episode, Aliza Prokop sits down with Sharon K. Ball—author, speaker, trauma-informed therapist, founder of 9Paths, and owner of Cereset® Franklin—to unpack what trauma really is and how it affects the brain and nervous system. Sharon explains why trauma can linger in the body long after the event is over and why healing is often more complex than simply “moving on.” Together they explore different healing modalities and practical steps people can take to begin restoring safety and balance in their lives.

In this special interview from NRB, Aliza Prokop sits down with Kent Darcie—author and founder of Adult Children of Divorce Ministries—to discuss the often-overlooked trauma people experience when their parents divorce, even later in life. Kent explains how a parent’s divorce can shape relationships well into adulthood, including the emotional “loyalty challenge” many feel between parents and the unique impact divorce can have on daughters. He also addresses the growing trend of “gray divorce” and why many adult sons and daughters carry emotional burdens that were never theirs to bear. Finally, Kent offers practical wisdom for couples preparing for marriage and explains how premarital counseling can help address wounds from parental divorce before they affect a new family.
