When Community Gets Real: Owning Our Blind Spots

This is a live recording from Girl Talk LIVE at West Asheville Baptist Church in Asheville, NC.

What do you do when someone points out a blind spot in your life? Do you get defensive, retreat into silence, or lash out? In this honest and Jesus-centered conversation, Carol, Tricia, and Kelly unpack what blind spots really are, why they’re hard to face, and how Christian community can become a safe space for transformation. From church hurt to sacred sisterhood, this episode reminds us that God uses vulnerability to grow us—and that His love can handle our most uncomfortable truths.

3 Takeaways from the Episode

1. Real community starts with safety.
   It’s not enough to just eat chocolate in pajamas—we need spiritual sisters who speak truth in love.
2. Blind spots aren’t always sin—they can be good traits taken too far.
   Sensitivity, for example, can turn into offense if left unchecked.
3. Vulnerability opens the door to healing.
   When we stop pretending and start getting real, we give God room to move and others permission to be honest too.

Looking for deeper friendships? Want to grow in faith and honesty? This episode is your permission slip to get real, get safe, and let Jesus into the areas you’ve been avoiding.
