    Why You’re Still Avoiding It | EP161
    Jun 25 2026
    What if the thing you've been avoiding is the exact thing God needs you to walk back through?
    In this episode of Jess Ask The Podcast, Jessica S. Smith and Desiree sit down for a raw, Spirit-led conversation about avoidance, identity, and what it really means to get over it — not in the dismissive sense, but in the biblical one. Jessica opens up about a moment she avoided revisiting for over a year because it made her feel like she wasn't enough, and what happened when she finally went back.

    Through personal testimony and the Word, this episode challenges listeners to rethink the moments they've been living in too long — and asks the harder question: what's waiting for you on the other side of getting over it?

    Whether you're navigating avoidance, shame, abandonment wounds, or the quiet fear that your past is still following you, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

    🎯 In this episode:
    • Why we invest time and energy into moments that were never meant to last
    • The definition of avoidance — and how it creates the very stress and anxiety we're praying away
    • What Moses and the burning bush teach us about getting over it and going back
    • How to know the difference between being released and being abandoned
