The Gospel of Wholeness
Faith, nervous system education, and the trauma-informed gospel
Ideal for: Post-evangelical communities, progressive churches, women’s ministries, spiritual development events
What if the gospel was never meant to bypass your body, ignore your story, or shame your emotions? The Gospel of Wholeness invites listeners to reimagine faith through the lens of nervous system safety, emotional maturity, and embodied healing.
Courtney speaks to the questions so many deconstructing Christians hold quietly—how trauma and church intersect, how regulation supports spiritual connection, and what it looks like to bring your whole self back to God. Deep, tender, and profoundly hopeful, this message is for those who still love Jesus but are healing how they’ve known Him.

“We had the pleasure of welcoming Courtney to Capistrano Valley Christian School for our Health and Wellness Week, and she made a lasting impact on both our staff and students. She began the day by leading an insightful in-service for our teachers, equipping them with tools to recognize signs of mental health struggles in students and encouraging them to prioritize their own emotional regulation to foster a safe classroom environment. Courtney also spoke at our junior high and high school chapels, where she addressed anxiety in a way that was both authentic and relatable. Her engaging approach made complex topics accessible, and both students and teachers walked away feeling informed and empowered. Courtney’s presence was truly a gift to our community, and we are grateful for the wisdom and warmth she shared with us.”
