Incurable? Not with God. Jenna Schutt Chose to Believe the Report of the Lord

What do you do when doctors tell you your condition is incurable? In this powerful episode of the Healed to Heal Podcast, Kathleen sits down with Jenna Schutt—former cardiac nurse, wife, mother, Christian author, and bone marrow transplant survivor—whose story is a living testimony of faith, resilience, and God's sustaining power. At just 30 years old, with two young children still in diapers, Jenna was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive bone marrow disease. Faced with devastating medical reports, chemotherapy, and a stem cell transplant, she made a decision that would change everything: she chose to believe God's promises above her circumstances. In this conversation, Jenna shares how she learned to renew her mind, overcome fear, anchor herself in Scripture, and develop what she calls The Joy Reflex—training herself to respond to life's battles with faith, peace, and joy rather than anxiety and despair. This episode is filled with practical encouragement for anyone facing illness, uncertainty, grief, anxiety, or a season that feels impossible. Topics We Cover: • Jenna's rare diagnosis and survival journey • Choosing God's report over fear and statistics • Renewing the mind through Scripture and testimony • The importance of faith-filled community and agreement • What "The Joy Reflex" is and how to develop it • Faith and medicine working together • Finding joy in the middle of suffering • How to train your mind toward peace instead of fear • Why your testimony matters If you've ever faced a battle that felt bigger than you, this conversation will remind you that God's promises are still true and that healing, hope, and joy are available even in the hardest seasons.

Heather O’Brien: From Stuck to Free Through Healing With God

What if the breakthrough you’ve been praying for begins with learning how to hear God’s voice? In this powerful episode of Healed to Heal, Kathleen Johnson sits down with Heather O’Brien, Spirit-led healing coach, author, podcast host, and founder of Heal With God. Heather shares her deeply personal journey from hidden anxiety, depression, fear, and emotional exhaustion into healing, freedom, and a real relationship with God that transformed every area of her life. For years, Heather faithfully followed God outwardly while privately struggling inwardly. But everything began to change when she discovered something many believers never fully realize, that God still speaks, personally, lovingly, and intentionally. Through dreams, prayer, Scripture, and learning to recognize His voice, Heather began uncovering the root causes behind the fear, emotional pain, and destructive patterns she had carried for years. Together, Kathleen and Heather unpack how unresolved wounds, false beliefs, spiritual agreements, fear, and identity struggles can quietly shape our lives without us even realizing it. Heather explains how many symptoms we battle emotionally, spiritually, and even physically are often clues pointing toward deeper healing God wants to bring. This conversation is filled with hope, practical wisdom, and powerful insight for anyone who feels stuck in cycles of fear, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, shame, fatigue, self-rejection, or discouragement. Heather also shares how she now helps others experience healing through her Heal With God workshops, coaching programs, books, and practical prayer frameworks designed to help people identify root issues and encounter freedom through the voice of God. If you’ve ever felt trapped in patterns you cannot seem to break, or wondered if God really wants to speak personally into your pain, this episode will encourage you deeply. Healing is possible. Freedom is possible. God still speaks. And your story is not over. TOPICS WE COVER • Learning how to hear God’s voice • How dreams can become part of your healing journey • The connection between emotional, spiritual, and physical healing • Why symptoms are often clues, not conclusions • Hidden agreements and false beliefs that keep people stuck • Fear, anxiety, rejection, shame, and identity struggles • How unresolved grief and trauma affect the body • Why many believers unknowingly partner with lies • Breaking cycles of fear and self-rejection • The power of repentance and forgiveness in healing • Practical steps for renewing the mind • How God leads us step by step into healing • Why healing often happens in layers • Testimonies of transformation through the Heal With God framework • Learning to walk by faith before you see visible results GUEST CONNECTION Heather O’Brien Website: https://www.heatherobrien.net Heal With God Workshop: https://www.healwithgodworkshop.com Heal With God Program: https://www.healwithgodprogram.com Books: https://www.heatherobrien.net/books Podcast: Heal With God Podcast 🎙️ More from Healed to Heal Podcast website: www.healedtohealpodcast.com Book: Healed to Heal — https://a.co/d/2nONdKX Book website: https://www.healedtoheal.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scripturegirls Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kathleenjohnsonhealtoheal/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SwordSpiritPowerforLife 🎧 Healed to Heal Podcast Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/healed-to-heal/id1847944534 RSS: https://feeds.podcastle.ai/14bf8bff-7783-4555-a257-4eb112b2d0db.rss Leave a Review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/healed-to-heal/id1847944534

He Came Back With More to Tell: Mick Weinholt on Faith, Obedience, and God’s Faithfulness

When Mick Weinholt first joined the Healed to Heal podcast, listeners were deeply moved by his testimony—surviving a devastating avalanche and walking through the unimaginable grief of losing his son just days before birth. But this time, Mick returns not just to revisit the past… but to share what God has done since. In this powerful follow-up conversation, we explore how faith grows after the miracle, how obedience unfolds after surrender, and how God continues to write a story long after the crisis moment is over. Mick opens up about the turning point that brought him to his knees in a hospital hallway, the encounter with God that changed the trajectory of his life, and the unexpected calling that led to the launch of his podcast, When You Look. His message is simple but profound: God is still working today—and when we look, we can see Him. This episode is a reminder that healing is not a one-time event. It’s a journey. And sometimes the most powerful testimony is what happens after the breakthrough. As Mick shares, even when we resist God, doubt Him, or feel far from Him, His love never stops pursuing us. His story is living proof that God can transform pain into purpose and grief into ministry. You’ll walk away encouraged, strengthened, and reminded that your story is not over. Because God is still writing. As Mick explains in this episode, there was a moment when he realized he could not fix what had happened—the loss of his child—and that surrender became the beginning of a life-changing relationship with God. In This Episode, We Discuss: • Surviving a life-threatening avalanche • Losing a child and facing unimaginable grief • The moment surrender changed everything • How faith grows after tragedy • Obedience to God’s calling • The power of testimony • Recognizing God’s presence in everyday life • Launching the When You Look podcast • Finding purpose after loss • Encouragement for anyone walking through suffering This Episode Is For You If: • You are grieving a loss • You are struggling to trust God after tragedy • You feel called to something but unsure how to begin • You want encouragement in your faith journey • You need hope in a difficult season • You believe your story might still have purpose Connect with Mick Weinholt: Website: https://whenyoulook.com Podcast: When You Look — Available on major podcast platforms and YouTube More from Healed to Heal Website: https://www.healedtoheal.com Book: Heal to Heal — https://a.co/d/2nONdKX Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scripturegirls/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61579084987765 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SwordSpiritPowerforLife Healed to Heal Podcast Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/healed-to-heal/id1847944534 RSS: https://feeds.podcastle.ai/14bf8bff-7783-4555-a257-4eb112b2d0db.rss Leave a Review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/healed-to-heal/id1847944534

Alicia Smith — Shot, Survived, and Set Free: Choosing Resilience, Forgiveness & Purpose

In this powerful and deeply moving conversation, I sit down with Alicia Smith, an inspirational speaker, author, and TEDx presenter whose life changed in an instant when she was caught in the crossfire of a gang-related shooting while attending college on a dance scholarship. Struck by an AK-47 bullet and given less than a one percent chance of survival, Alicia endured multiple surgeries, months in the hospital, and years of recovery. But her greatest battle wasn’t just physical—it was emotional. Faced with fear, trauma, and the loss of the life she once knew, Alicia stood at a crossroads and made a life-defining decision: she would choose healing instead of bitterness. Today, Alicia travels the country sharing her story to help others overcome adversity, release unforgiveness, and discover purpose on the other side of pain. Her message is simple but profound—your pain does not have to be wasted, and forgiveness is not a feeling, it’s a choice. Her testimony is a reminder that healing is not about going back to who we were—it’s about becoming stronger, freer, and more aligned with who God created us to be. As Alicia shared, choosing resilience is something we do daily, and that decision can change everything. Topics We Cover • The night Alicia was caught in the crossfire of a gang-related shooting • Surviving trauma and navigating long-term recovery • The moment she chose “better” instead of “bitter” • How forgiveness became the turning point in her healing • Finding identity after losing a lifelong dream • Turning pain into purpose through speaking and ministry • Why resilience is a daily decision—not just a feeling Connect with Alicia Smith Website: https://aliciasmithspeaks.com Watch Alicia’s TEDx Talk: A Guide to Finding Resilience and Joy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aliciasmithspeaks Email: aliciasmithspeaks@gmail.com 🎙️ More from Healed to Heal Website: https://www.healedtoheal.com Book: Healed to Heal — https://a.co/d/2nONdKX Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scripturegirls Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61579084987765 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SwordSpiritPowerforLife 🎧 Healed to Heal Podcast Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/healed-to-heal/id1847944534 RSS: https://feeds.podcastle.ai/14bf8bff-7783-4555-a257-4eb112b2d0db.rss Leave a Review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/healed-to-heal/id1847944534
