What does it really mean to trust God in hard seasons—when depression, waiting, motherhood struggles, and unanswered prayers collide with faith?

In this honest conversation on the Rybickulous Faith Podcast, author and speaker Melanie Cox shares her journey through depression, long waiting seasons, and the miracle-filled messiness of motherhood. Through personal stories and biblical insight, Melanie reveals how surrendering to God reshaped her identity in Christ, helped her recognize the lies of the enemy, and led her into deeper freedom, gratitude, and purpose.

This episode is for anyone navigating real life, real pain, and real calling—whether you’re deeply rooted in faith or still exploring what it means to trust God when life doesn’t go as planned. Melanie’s story reminds us that our struggles are not signs of failure, but invitations into transformation, healing, and restoration.

✨ In this episode, we talk about:

• Trusting God in hard seasons and waiting periods

• Finding your identity in Christ as a woman

• Faith after depression, burnout, and disappointment

• Authenticity in women’s ministry

• Shaking off shame, negativity, and the lies of the enemy

• The power of gratitude and surrender in everyday faith

If you’re searching for Christian encouragement, longing to feel seen by God, or wondering how your story fits into His greater plan, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

Peace over performance isn’t just a phrase — it’s a lifeline for women who are exhausted from striving, achieving, and trying to get everything “right.”

In this episode of the Rybickulous Faith Podcast, host Sarah Rybicki sits down with Molly Means to have an honest, grace-filled conversation about faith, identity, mental health, and what it really means to trust God when performance no longer brings peace.

Molly shares her personal journey of surrender, including how a late ADHD diagnosis reshaped her understanding of herself, her calling, and her relationship with God. Together, Sarah and Molly explore how Christian women can separate their worth from their achievements and stop striving for approval — even spiritual approval — in favor of resting in God’s presence.

If you’re a woman who loves Jesus but feels tired, burned out, or stuck in performance mode, this conversation is for you.

• Peace over performance and why striving never satisfies

• Identity in Christ vs. identity in achievement

• Faith and ADHD from a Christian perspective

• Burnout, surrender, and letting God rebuild the plan

• How to trust God when your plans fall apart

• Grace for women navigating calling, leadership, and transitions

This episode is for faith-curious and faith-rooted women navigating real life, real pain, and real calling — and looking for clarity, courage, and Christ along the way.

🎧 Listen, reflect, and be reminded:
Peace isn’t found in performance. It’s found in God’s presence.
