What Are You Really Feeling?
For the woman who knows God can hold it and is finally ready to find words for what she's been carrying
You know something is there. You have known for a while.
You feel it when a conversation goes wrong, when conflict rises in your body before your mind catches up, when God feels distant even though you are doing everything you have always done. You cannot explain it exactly. But it is there — underneath the functioning, underneath the faith, underneath the version of yourself you show everyone else.
This workbook is for that.
What Are You Really Feeling? is a guided reflection workbook built around the four emotions that most often live beneath grief, loss, spiritual disorientation, and pain: anger, shame, anxiety, and sadness. Each section walks you through what the emotion is, what it was doing for you, what it may be costing you now, and what story underneath it is asking to be witnessed and grieved.
This is not a resource to skim. Reflection questions and writing space are woven throughout each section so you can read, breathe, and process as you go. Each section closes with a liturgical prayer—raw, unresolved, honest—that brings what you have named directly to God.
Also included: a Nuanced Emotions Chart, Body Sensations list, and 22 Relational Needs appendix to help you find language when words feel out of reach.
This workbook is for the woman who:
- Knows something is off but cannot name it
- Has tried the Bible studies, the books, the programs and still feels stuck
- Is tired of being told to just pray more
- Is ready to do the slow, honest, God-facing work of naming what is underneath
- Believes, even if only barely, that God can handle what she brings Him
What is inside:
- Four complete guided sections: Anger, Shame, Anxiety, and Sadness
- Interwoven reflection questions with writing space throughout
- Four liturgical prayers, one for each emotion
- Nuanced Emotions Chart, Body Sensations list, and 22 Relational Needs appendix

This is not a destination. It is a beginning. And beginning—honest, unhurried, God-facing—is not nothing.
