  <description>In part one, Shan shared her vulnerable story of growing up under the weight of perfectionism, navigating postpartum anxiety with each of her four children, and realizing that striving to “be good enough” meant she was rejecting God’s grace.
In this second part, Shan moves from story to strategy—laying out the Bold Blueprint God gave her in a moment of desperation: four simple, practical steps that bring peace, courage, and freedom.
Together with Nadine, Shan explores:
Why the story of Mary and Martha shaped her understanding of rest and priorities.
The call to steward our one life—time, body, family, and community.
What it means to move your body daily, care for your marriage, and build authentic friendships.
How living in courage, not fear, allows us to embrace our true identity in Christ.
Why managing stress and building holistic wellness isn’t optional—it’s essential to thriving.
This is a conversation for every woman who feels stretched too thin, buried by expectations, or caught in cycles of anxiety. Shan’s practical wisdom and heartfelt encouragement will help you release what was never yours to carry and step into bold, faith-filled living.

  <description>In this two-part series, Nadine is joined by Shan Wright: wife, mom of four, registered nurse of 19 years, and holistic nurse coach. Shan shares her story of growing up under the label of “the good, shy perfectionist,” and how those patterns followed her into nursing, marriage, and motherhood. After experiencing postpartum anxiety with each of her four children, Shan hit a breaking point and cried out to God, only to realize that striving for perfection meant she was living in fear, rejecting His grace, and believing the cross wasn’t enough for her.
In this first part of the conversation, Shan opens up about:
— Her lifelong battle with perfectionism and anxiety.
— How postpartum anxiety became a wake-up call.
— The moment God gently showed her she couldn’t do it all and gave her four things that would lead to peace.
— Why anxiety is really fear in disguise, and how fear competes with faith.
This episode sets the stage for part two, where Shan reveals the practical steps of her “Bold Blueprint” for releasing anxiety and embracing a courageous, faith-filled life
