In Part 2 of our deeply moving conversation, It’s Your Story to Tell host Megan Babcock is joined again by psychiatrist and spiritual mentor Dr. Uejin Kim to talk about how we heal—body, mind, and spirit.

🧠 How unstructured grief and somatic awareness transform trauma
📖 Why spiritual re-parenting is key for faith-based recovery
❤️ The truth about grace: You can’t pour it if you’ve never tasted it
🧊 And yes—what ice cream has to do with knowing God’s love

For years, I carried a story I was afraid to tell—chapters marked by silent battles, shame, trauma, and the weight of expectations that shaped how I saw myself. I learned to survive by striving, pleasing, and performing… until survival no longer worked. In the quiet places of breaking, God began to reveal a different path—not one of hiding, but of healing; not one of striving, but of surrender.
In 2007, I first heard the whisper of calling, but it wasn’t until I walked through my own valleys— heartbreak, spiritual awakening, and the unraveling of old identities that I finally understood: my life was being prepared for a purpose far greater than I imagined. God was weaving together my 23 years in healthcare, my deep study of trauma and neuroscience, and the countless ways He had healed the hidden parts of my story.
When I finally stepped into my calling in 2023, launching It’s Your Story to Tell something transformed. The very places I once believed disqualified me became the foundation of my ministry. Today, I help people rise from the weight of their past, regulate their nervous systems, and align with the truth of who God created them to be. At the intersection of faith and neuroscience, I guide others into emotional wholeness, resilience, and Spirit-led confidence.
My mission is simple: to transform lives by helping people rise with purpose and leave a legacy of healing, courage, and redemption. I believe every story, no matter how broken, can become a beacon of hope when surrendered to God. And I’m living proof that when we step into the calling we once feared, we become unstoppable in the impact we were born to make.
