“I Found You When No One Else Did”-Based on Book of Ezekiel 16:4–6In this powerful episode of It’s Been a Journey, we explore what it truly means to love someone from their broken beginnings—without holding them hostage to their past. Drawing from Ezekiel 16, this conversation unpacks how many relationships start in seasons of struggle, but are tested in seasons of growth.What happens when the person you helped build… no longer needs you the same way?Can love survive when healing changes the dynamic?And are you in love with who they are—or who they used to be?This episode challenges us to examine the difference between loving someone in their struggle versus honoring them in their growth. It speaks directly to couples, marriages, and anyone navigating relationships where healing, change, and emotional maturity are required.If you’ve ever loved—or been loved—at your lowest, this message will meet you right where you are.-Join us May 4, 2026 @ 7PM CSTfor our upcoming live episode:“Take the Bandage Off, Sis” featuring Jovie WilkersonBecause covering wounds… doesn’t mean they’re healed.#ItsBeenAJourney #FaithAndLove #RelationshipHealing #Ezekiel16 #MarriageGrowth
Everybody wants real love… but not everybody knows how to honor it.In this series inspired by Ezekiel 16, we’re unpacking what happens when love starts off genuine—but gets mishandled through pride, neglect, and broken trust.This isn’t just about relationships…It’s about accountability, healing, and asking the hard question:Did the relationship fail… or did we?*Covenant or Convenience — a journey through love, betrayal, and the truth we don’t always want to face.
Let’s talk about it…A lot of relationships aren’t breaking because of lack of love…They’re breaking because of lack of understanding.Some men think they know their woman—but they’re loving who she used to be… not who she is now.And instead of asking questions…Instead of relearning her…Distance creeps in.Silence shows up.And sometimes… they step outside the relationship trying to find what they never took time to understand.In this episode, I (Shenelle) sit down with my daughter and co-host Cherrell Ball to have a real, honest conversation about:Misconceptions in marriageEmotional disconnectionWhy understanding matters more than assumptionAnd how love without knowledge can slowly break a relationshipThis one is for the married, dating, and “we trying to figure it out” folks. Tune in, reflect, and ask yourself:“Am I still learning my partner… or just assuming I know them?” And men—I’m opening the floor for you too. If you’re ready to talk, comment: “Let’s talk.”
In this episode of It’s Been a Journey, Shenelle gets real about one of the most overlooked issues in relationships—loving someone based on who they used to be instead of who they are today. Many marriages and relationships aren’t falling apart from lack of love, but from lack of understanding. When a woman evolves and her partner continues to operate from outdated assumptions, emotional disconnection begins to grow silently. This episode challenges men to relearn their women, not rely on memory, and invites honest reflection on how misconceptions can slowly damage intimacy, trust, and communication. If you’ve ever felt unseen, misunderstood, or emotionally alone while still being “in” a relationship—this conversation is for you.#itsbeenajourneypodcast #itsbeenajourney #podcast #youdontknowme #husbandandwife #marriage #relationship
Pain doesn’t just hurt… it speaks.In this episode of It’s Been a Journey, we’re talking about how the enemy uses emotional pain, grief, heartbreak, and disappointment to kill your hope, steal your identity, and cloud your mind. But the story doesn’t end there…John 10:10 reminds us: “The thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy… BUT God came that we may have life.”This conversation breaks down the real ways pain shows up in your life, and how God responds with healing, clarity, and restoration. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, disconnected, or mentally foggy in your pain… this episode is for you.

Wise love doesn’t just point fingers — it looks in the mirror. In this Month Closer episode of It’s Been a Journey, we unpack Proverbs 20:27 and what it truly means for the human spirit to be the lamp of the Lord. What if the heartbreak wasn’t just about what they did, but about what was revealed in you? This conversation dives into self-awareness in relationships, how God exposes what still needs healing, and why becoming whole is more important than being chosen. Whether you’re single and dating or married and navigating covenant, this episode challenges you to stop avoiding yourself and start growing intentionally. Before asking, “Why did they hurt me?” ask, “What did this reveal in me?” This is about accountability, healing, and wise love that begins within.#ItsBeenAJourney #WiseLove #SelfAwareness #FaithAndRelationships #HealingJourney #Proverbs2027 #GrowthInLove #ChristianPodcast #itsyou
Love doesn’t die from lack of feelings — it dies from too much pride.In this powerful episode of It’s Been a Journey, we unpack the truth behind the statement: “Love Grows When Pride Shrinks.” So many relationships struggle not because love is gone, but because ego is too loud. When we need to be right more than we need to be whole… when apology feels like weakness… when vulnerability feels unsafe… pride quietly builds walls where intimacy once lived.We’re talking about:• How pride disguises itself as “boundaries”• Why saying “I’m sorry” feels harder than saying “I’m done”• The spiritual cost of ego in relationships• What humility actually looks like in love• How to rebuild connection without losing yourselfThis episode is about maturity. It’s about self-awareness. It’s about choosing unity over being right. Because real love doesn’t compete — it yields, it listens, it softens.If you’ve ever found yourself in a cycle of defensiveness, silent treatment, or emotional distance… this conversation will meet you right where you are.Before asking, “Why aren’t we growing?”Ask, “Where am I still guarding?”Love expands in safe spaces.Pride suffocates them.Press play. Reflect deeply. Grow intentionally. #ItsBeenAJourney #LoveAndGrowth #RelationshipHealing #EmotionalMaturity #LetLoveLead #HumilityInLove
