Title: Rebuilding After Detachment: Trusting God With What’s Coming

Detachment is hard, but rebuilding after detachment can be even harder. In this episode of The Ebb and Flow, Ebony talks about what happens after you let go of toxic relationships, unhealthy attachments, old habits, and the things that no longer align with where God is taking you. This conversation is for anyone learning how to stop reaching back for what they had to leave behind and trust God in the rebuilding process. Through honest conversation, supporting scripture, affirmations, journal prompts, and prayer, this episode explores how to rebuild your peace, confidence, boundaries, and relationship with God after loss, heartbreak, disappointment, or change.
