Episode notes
Welcome to The Receiving Edge. I'm Sarah Blackah, and this is the short version of how I got here. For about fifteen years I've mentored people through change, mostly women in leadership. A few years ago I thought I'd cracked the code. A seven-figure business, a global health and wellness community, stages, travel, and a freedom-based life I'd built on purpose so it could one day support becoming a wife and mother. Then came what my mentor called a life quake. Friendships I believed would last a lifetime ended, the financial future I'd built shifted underneath me, and I found myself grieving…

The Receiving Edge
Sarah Blackah · Devotional & Spiritual · English

The Art of Receiving Love, with Sami Wunder
A man once told this dating coach she didn't know how to receive love. Sami Wunder built her coaching practice on a heartbreak. On paper she had every advantage going into dating, education, values, warmth, but her relationships kept ending the same way, until a man she had fallen for went quiet for ten days, then told her afterward that she needed to learn how to let herself be loved. That comment became the seed of the work she has since built for ambitious, high-achieving women. The conversation walks through the patterns Sami sees most often in capable women. Initiating and managing…

From Freedom Lifestyle to Freedom in Christ, with Kristie Morgan
She built the freedom lifestyle and still could not stop picking her nails. Kristie Morgan quit a corporate job in 2012 with no savings, no plan and existing debt, after reading a book about working four hours a week. Five years of failed businesses followed. A raw food cafe, an eBay store, coaching, money lost that she did not have. Then in 2017 something worked, and she went on to build a global community, a farm retreat property, an investment portfolio and a life that looked from the outside like the one she had left corporate to find. The conversation is about what that cost underneath.…

Hearing God's Voice and Receiving Provision with Tiana Baxter
She had not slept for five nights, and that turned out to be the point. This episode includes an account of two children being pulled unconscious from a swimming pool and resuscitated. Both survived without injury. Tiana Baxter spent nearly two decades in sales before founding SELLÁ, Home of the Salesgirl. She and her husband came to faith while everything was working, which she says meant the years afterwards were mostly about things being stripped away. The centre of this conversation is a morning at a hotel on the Gold Coast, at the end of the hardest stretch of their marriage. A…

The Lost Art of Love: Biological Relating, Desire & Dating in the 21st Century with Martine De Luna
Every woman asking how to be more feminine is asking the wrong question. Martine De Luna has spent fourteen years guiding women through what she calls biological relating. Her argument is that femininity is a woman's natural state, and that the only thing capable of taking her out of it is conflict. Every course promising to make a woman more feminine therefore treats a symptom as a deficiency. The question she asks instead is where a woman first learned that being chosen required leaving parts of herself behind. The conversation covers what modern dating asks women to give up, why courtship…
