Talk That Transforms with Kim Davis

I recently had the chance to talk things through with a sister I’m really close to. We were having one of those honest, heart-level conversations about everything I’ve been facing—marriage, business, motherhood, and the emotional weight that comes with all of it.

In that conversation, something became clear to me.

I realized I’ve been craving separation in order to become whole.

At first, the separation I desired felt like leaving. Distance. Escape. Walking away because it seems easier—because sometimes it is. When things feel overwhelming, misunderstood, or tense, leaving can feel like relief.

But that isn’t the separation I truly need.

The separation I need is the kind Jesus modeled—the kind He took after speaking to the crowds, after pouring Himself out, or simply when He needed to reconnect. He would step away, not to run, but to be restored. He separated Himself to spend time with the Father.

And that’s what I’m choosing to try.

I’m learning that when I feel misunderstood, angry, emotionally flooded, or overwhelmed by business, kids, or marriage, those feelings aren’t signs that I should flee—they’re indicators. They’re invitations telling me it’s time to pause, to separate, and to go spend intentional time with my Father.

This kind of separation requires something different from me. It means I have to be intentional. I have to make space. Eventually, it will mean building this time into my daily life—not just when things fall apart, but as a way to stay grounded and whole.

I know this will require change. And change requires openness. But I also know I have to start somewhere.

So what better place to start than with time spent with our Father?

I’m excited to see what happens when I choose restoration over escape, connection over avoidance, and separation that heals instead of separation that runs.

This is my starting place
