In this raw journal-style solo episode, Leah Steele opens up about a recent health scare that became a Holy Spirit confrontation with the old spirit of striving. What started as a biblically inspired fast quickly unraveled into a cautionary tale about obedience versus perfectionism—and how easily we can slide back into self-reliance even in our walk with Christ. Leah shares vulnerable reflections on her identity, health, community backlash over her public faith, and what it means to truly be set apart in a world that celebrates deception. This one’s a fire-starter for anyone navigating the tension between religious works and true relationship with Jesus.


🔍 Bullet Points – Key Takeaways

⚠️ Health Crisis as Wake-Up Call: Leah’s extreme fast triggered serious health issues—God hadn’t told her to fast; she was striving to “do it right.”

🧠 Old Patterns, New Faith: The spirit of performance and superiority from her New Age past tried to re-emerge under the guise of excellence.

👏 Worldly Applause vs. Kingdom Obedience: She was celebrated as a “witch” but is now shamed for following Jesus—proof John 15:19 is alive and real.

🤝 Division in the Church: Even within the Bride of Christ, division (over Elon, denominations, Israel, theology) is a demonic distraction.

👑 From Platform-Building to Kingdom-Building: Leah’s passion for wealth and business remains—but now it’s fully submitted to God’s will and purpose.

“God hadn’t told me to fast—I chose to do it. It wasn’t about obedience. It was about being the best... and that’s striving, not surrender.” – Leah Steele
