Bonus Episode: I Was the Sacrifice. And No One Questioned It

📓 Episode Description (Show Notes):

In this short, but raw, soul-baring fireside chat, Denise Alena opens up about what it means to be the one who was always told to sacrifice — her voice, her peace, her intuition — in the name of obedience.

But what if that obedience was never holy? What if you were never supposed to be the offering?

This episode is for every woman, every seeker, every soul who was told their silence was sacred and their suffering was spiritual. Denise revisits the haunting story of Jephthah’s daughter in Judges 11, and weaves it into a powerful reflection on religious trauma, spiritual coercion, and the reclaiming of your divine voice.

If you’ve ever said “yes” when your soul screamed “no”… If you’ve ever felt like you were devoured by a system that called it devotion… This episode will speak to your bones.

✨ You are not the sacrifice. ✨ You are not the price. ✨ You are the awakening.

🧠 Mentioned in this episode: • Judges 11 The story of Jephthah’s daughter • Religious trauma and spiritual gaslighting • Finding your voice after years of spiritual suppression • The difference between surrender and survival • Why choosing yourself is not rebellion, it’s resurrection
