Their relationship inspires me to believe that healthy connections with the family you...Read full review »

I listened to Angie and how God used her to help me see that The trauma I experienced as a child and into adulthood can be addressed. I always felt like there was something wrong with me, why could I not be set free. But I see that I need to address the trauma and that will set me free. Thank you...Read full review »

I just finished listening to this podcast. I can so relate to the need for physical touch. I can go weeks, months, during Covid over a year without being touched. It is hard. It would make me so sad when I would think about when I was touched. I would see a massage therapist weekly just to have...Read full review »

I’ve been longing for a real and honest conversation among Christians! Thank you!
Allison Mueller via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/27/20
I really appreciated her insights on gaslighting. It is so rare to hear Christians taking these issues on, but they are important! Thank you for also talking about meds for mental health. Another important topic for Christians! ❤️❤️ Keep up the great work!

I came across this podcast by happy accident. I like the practical and well rounded approach that is taken regarding the complicated matters of the heart. Spiritual aspects are considered and addressed with a forgiving and understanding approach.

I fell upon your podcast by accident, the series on sexuality hit home, I have been reading the book Love Thy Body, and it speaks on so much of what you covered. As a divorcee I have struggled with sexuality and the book and your podcast have been encouraging to be celibate. (Prayer prayer prayer...Read full review »

I have searched for years for the words and phrases to describe what a relationship with a family member did to me. I have never been able to explain it or name it, until now. Gaslighting....you series blew my mind. You could have inserted my name in every sentence you spoke. 6 years ago I began...Read full review »
the crave to gather via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/12/20
This is definitely what my heart needed to hear on such complicated matters. I love that there was no blanket solution given, but it all came back to asking the questions of your heart concerning your relationship with God and your relationship with the person in front of you. So good!

I just found your podcast through a friend and so grateful. Thanks for talking about hard topics with realness and ease. ❤️

I have tried a variety of different Christian podcasts and this one is by far my favorite. I love the humor-Emily and her sister are hilarious! But it’s also so rich and deep and real. I always walk away feeling deeply encouraged and like it was time well spent. Emily just feels like someone you...Read full review »

I started listening right when the Sex Series began and wow, I’ve been so blessed by the gentle yet meaningful way Sarah and her guests have approached this topic. Each episode I learn something new and look forward to the next one.

Seriously, if I could give this 10 stars I would. There is so much heavy content shared in a light way. It speaks to my heart and I am so grateful. Keep doing this. It’s needed.

This episode is deeper than surface level talk and the multiple Christian podcasts on porn. Different and helpful!!!!!

The title of this podcast “The Complicated Heart” drew me in, and it has aided in my spiritual growth through the past year, which was my first year of marriage. So, it has also blessed my marriage. 😊 I decided to listen to every episode even those that don’t seem to apply to me (based on the...Read full review »

I have searched high and low for a podcast that just hits home and this is it! I have only listen to 2 podcasts so far and they have been amazing and have been spot on what I needed to hear! Can’t wait to listen to more!
@influenter,Dmp09 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/22/20
So thankful for a podcast that not only talks about the hard topics, but addresses the connections between the spiritual and physical, emotional and mental sides of those struggles so beautifully. Really helpful.
AnnaRenfro30 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/09/20
The topics and focus of this show has been on my heart as God has drawn me in to face my broken that has caused yucky patterns. Much needed for our sisters (and brothers) in Christ to gain growth, freedom and joy this side of heaven..yes, even in this side.

I can’t express how grateful I am for this show. It’s opened my eyes to the trauma I’ve experienced with my own family, and given me words to describe what has happened. It’s a great complement to what you may already be working through in counseling! Thank you for this!!

I was introduced to Sarah’s podcast via Sharon Hodde Miller. I followed her on IG and then looked into her podcast.

I followed this episodes because this is happening to me and I am completely confused I am questioning myself at this point whether I’m crazy or not. I ended up doing wrong things because of my resentments and it’s so hard to function anymore.

I knew something was wrong in a past relationship but I never had a name to go with it. Now I know and understand I was being gas lit. Thank you for helping me understand and work through the trauma!
mrsM18 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/04/19
I first learned about Sarah Mae from Sally and read their book “desperate.” I’ve enjoyed following her FB and blog and can relate to a lot of the mom issues. This podcast is a good addition in sharing her experiences and information.

The 3rd episode about gaslighting was amazing. Thank you for your words. Currently in the trenches of breaking the generational gaslighting. This was great encouragement 💜

I just listened to your episode about sending your kids to public school after homeschooling. I am in the same position and will be sending my kids this next semester. You spoke to my fears and about what to expect and for that I’m so grateful!

Sarah’s words, through her book and this podcast, have been instrumental in my healing. She taught me what gaslighting was. She’s helped me see that the people who have hurt me have been through their own abuse and hurts. Listening to this podcast simply encourages me to keep walking out my own...Read full review »

I found “A Complicated Heart” about two months ago and every episode I’ve listened to has been beneficial for myself or for a friend or family member. Sarah Mae shares her God given wisdom with listeners in order to lead them to a life well lived.

I just listened to the how to mourn episode and it hit so hard. I’m kinda going through the same thing with my family. Only I feel really guilty about it.
