If you know my husband Mark and I, then you know we are passionate about moving people from a 1.0 version of themselves to a new-and-improved 2.0 version. We’ve taken this journey ourselves and know the difference it can make in your relationships, as well as how you view yourself.
We want you to know that whether you are navigating a life transition, experiencing a relationship crisis, trying to rediscover your purpose, or looking for direction on how to move forward, you are always just one choice away from making a change.
Today, we have two incredible guests joining us to explore this topic. Justin and Trish Davis are pastors, speakers, coaches, and the founders of Refine Us Ministries. Through their powerful story of failure, loss, and transformation, they help others find renewed hope and purpose. Justin and Trish have co-authored and individually authored several books, the latest being One Choice Away from Change: Break the Cycles That Hurt Your Relationships and Hold You Back.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- How God restored their relationship after an affair
- Common barriers that hold us back in life
- Practical steps to take when you feel stuck
- And more!
If you are feeling stuck, defeated, and like there is no way forward, we hope this conversation shows you how to take the first step toward finding hope and healing.

My Key Takeaways:
1) Start by getting to know your pain. What is the thing that you are always thinking about? It could be the feeling that you aren’t measuring up, or it could be a particular relationship that has been filled with strife. We cannot begin to do the work to understand and heal our pain until we can name what it is.
2) Get to the root of the dysfunction. Once you can name what it is that is holding you back or keeping you trapped in the cycle of the past, it’s time to do some heavy lifting. We need to excavate and remove the lies, habits, and patterns that no longer serve us well. Before we can rebuild, we have to tear the old stuff down.
3) Offer hope to others. People heal at different rates. Just because God has done restorative work in our lives doesn’t mean he will work at the same pace in others. For Mark and I, our desire is that our story will offer others hope that healing can happen for anyone in any situation. Don’t feel discouraged or ashamed if you are not as far along in your healing journey as you would like to be. God is still at work in your life, and that is something to celebrate!
