UNLEASHED Episode #90 – Learning to Fly Again

In this heartfelt episode of Unleashed, Brent shares a raw and honest look at what happens when we spend our lives trapped in the exhausting cycle of performance—trying to earn love, outrun shame, and hide our brokenness. He opens up about a recent moment when he realized he’d lost sight of his "why," and how living to meet expectations had left him empty, anxious, and disconnected from the freedom Christ offers. Through personal stories of fear, failure, and hiding—including the early days of his relationship with his wife, Stacy—Brent paints a picture of how the relentless need to prove ourselves—not only to others, to ourselves, but even to God—slowly drains the life out of us, leaving us exhausted, insecure, and disconnected from the freedom we were created to live in. But there’s hope. When we finally let go of the pressure to measure up and step into the grace of God, something incredible happens: our broken wings begin to heal, and we learn to fly again.If you're tired of carrying the weight of shame, fear, and performance, this episode will remind you that freedom isn't something you earn—it’s already yours in Christ.
