The Unraveling Podcast with Kelli Bachara aims to help women better their mental health, find their God-given purpose, and grow closer to Jesus every day. Kelli is a lover of Jesus, a wife, a mama, and a mental health therapist, who hopes to help you grow with these podcasts. Some podcasts will be solo, and some will be interviews. Regardless, we want you to leave feeling encouraged and know that the Lord has a great plan for you. Yes, YOU!

Today we will discuss the great commission that Jesus gave to the disciples, and still gives to us. It is our job, and honor, as Christians to be a light in this world, and to bring others to Christ. Easter isn't just about what Jesus did for us, it's also about what we can do to bring Him glory TODAY. I hope you all have a wonderful Easter! Check …

Today we continue on with our Easter series (Easter is coming so soon!) where we discuss the different accounts in the Bible where people encountered Jesus after He resurrected, but they did not realize at first it was Him. Sometimes this happens to us, too. Sometimes God is doing things right in front of us, but we don't see Him in it. Today's pod…

Today we continue on with our Easter series. We are looking specifically at the sorrow and questions that the disciples must have felt during the period of time between Jesus' death and His resurrection. We talk about the "waiting period", and how sometimes while we are in it, God seems so quiet. Yet, His quietness does not mean His absence. He is …

Today we look at Psalm 30. We are going to discuss how our emotions waver with our circumstances (and that's ok!) but it's important that what remains consistent is that we go to God, openly and honestly, with what we are feeling. David does this beautifully in the Psalms. He shows us that we are allowed to feel, yet through it all, we always go ba…

Today's podcast looks at Psalm 25. David shows us that when we seek God's ways and His truth, we will be guided and confided in my God Himself. Life is better doing it God's way because He alone knows what we need, and He alone knows our purpose. Remember, "All of the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful.." He has good things in store, friends.…

Today we discuss verses 16-19 in Psalms 18. God rescues David, because David is too weak to beat his enemies. This is true for all of us to some extent.

What does it mean to rest? Well, the world's perception of rest looks a lot different than the Word's. We all need rest, that's why God commanded it! But oftentimes we look to the wrong places to find the rest our body and soul really need. We discuss this in the podcast. We also look into the concept of energy. So many of us feel so overwhelmed an…
