It’s Not Too Late to Start Again | Faith, Surrender & Healing with Maxetta Gadd

In this honest conversation, Alisa sits down with her friend Maxetta Gadd to talk about the winding road back to truth—and what happens when you finally stop trying to control your way into freedom and choose surrender instead.

Maxetta gets real about feeling disconnected from her body, knowing the truth but still finding herself walking in lies, and missing out on opportunities to fully live life with the people she loves.

Her turning point wasn’t a quick fix or a perfect before-and-after story.

It was surrender.

Through prayer, Maxetta began to see her body, her habits, her relationship with food, and the role of the Holy Spirit in her everyday life differently. What she once thought was discipline began to become delight. And coming back to community reminded her who she was when she had forgotten.

This conversation is for anyone who has wondered:

• Have I gone too far to change?
• Is it too late for me to start again?
• Why do I keep doing what I know isn’t true?
• What would happen if I stopped trying to control everything and surrendered?
• Could health, faith, and freedom actually belong together?

Because it’s not too late.

You’re not too far gone.

And your story isn’t over.
