When God Said “Go Back Home” | Glen & Debbie Kirkpatrick’s Story of Overcoming (Audio Version)

In this powerful episode of Unshaken Voices, I sit down with Glen and Debbie Kirkpatrick, authors of Overcome, to talk about cancer, depression, marriage, intervention, ECT, faith, and the hope that carried them through their darkest season. Their story is honest, emotional, and deeply moving. It reminds us that faith and medical care do not have to be opposites, that intervention can look like love, and that God can still bring purpose out of pain. This episode includes a discussion of depression and suicidal thoughts. If you or someone you love is in crisis, please call or text 988 in the U.S. #UnshakenVoices #Overcome #GlenAndDebbieKirkpatrick #FaithAndMentalHealth #ChristianPodcast #MentalHealthAwareness #SuicidePrevention #CancerSurvivor #FaithAndHealing #Testimony #HopeInHardTimes #ChristianAuthor #PodcastInterview #ECT #GodIsFaithful

Audio Version What Mania Took From Me (And Why It Still Scares Me) Episode 3

What Mania Took From Me (And Why It Still Scares Me) In this deeply personal episode of Unshaken Voices, Denise Pimentel speaks honestly about the part of bipolar disorder that frightens her most: mania. Mania is often misunderstood as energy or productivity. But in reality, it can blur insight, distort perception, and create a dangerous sense of certainty. Denise shares lived experiences from her journey, including moments of psychosis, relational strain, and the impact mania had on her marriage and family. With clarity, faith, and responsibility, she explains why understanding the illness changed everything for the people who love her. This episode is not about dramatizing mental illness. It is about telling the truth with care so that others may recognize warning signs, seek support earlier, and know they are not alone. If you love someone living with bipolar disorder, or if you live with it yourself, this conversation is for you. If you or someone you love is struggling with suicidal thoughts, help is available in the United States by calling or texting 988.

🎙️ Episode 1: When Life Turns Upside Down Audio version

In this first episode of Unshaken Voices, I sit down with my husband, Ryan, to talk honestly about what it looks like to walk through mental illness, caregiving, marriage, faith, and recovery when life takes an unexpected turn. We share our real experiences navigating bipolar disorder, the fear and uncertainty that comes with mental health crises, the strain caregiving can place on relationships, and how everything shifted after I suffered a stroke in December 2024. This conversation isn’t about having all the answers or offering quick fixes. It’s about showing up, staying grounded in faith, and learning how to keep going when life doesn’t go the way you planned. If you are living with mental illness, caring for someone you love, walking through grief or trauma, or trying to hold onto hope in a hard season, this podcast is for you. Unshaken Voices is not a crisis resource or a substitute for professional care. It is a space for real stories, lived experience, and honest conversations meant to remind you that you are not alone. #UnshakenVoices #MentalHealthAwareness #CaregiverSupport #BipolarDisorder #StrokeRecovery #MentalHealthJourney #FaithAndHealing #CaregivingLife #RealStoriesRealHope #MarriageAndMentalHealth #HopeInHardSeasons #YouAreNotAlone
