Safe inSecurity
Everyone needs safe spaces to be honest, to be real, to celebrate, to be broken, to grow, to grieve, to share testimonies, to learn from failures, to fall, to get back up, to be themselves, to be human. Everyone needs a safe space to be vulnerable and still feel valuable.
This is a space where the overlooked can feel seen, heard, and loved, and the undercover become overcomers when truth that dispels the lies of insecurity is put on full display.
Entrepreneur, singer, writer, and public speaker, Melody Faith hosts the Safe inSecurity Podcast as the first endeavor of her Live inSecurity lifestyle brand, dedicated to helping people to overcome insecurity and give the Creator God a return on His investment in them.

Episode 16: “Looks Can Be Deceiving"
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If you wanna land the lead role, you need to look the part. If you wanna get the job, dress for the interview. If you want people to listen to you, they have to see you first. Our society thrives on looks, so that means being perceived as “attractive” drives our physical appearance regimens.
That also means a truckload of insecurities.
Desperately trying to keep up, we become master manipulators and deceivers, creating the illusion of alignment with beauty standards and trends. I want people who see me to believe I actually have long lashes, smooth, monotone skin, and an hour-glass figure.
All of this is in a vain effort to become more desirable in the eyes of other people whose minds have been manipulated just like ours.
There’s nothing wrong with cosmetics and alterations but if you take a moment to ask yourself why, the answer may surprise you.
In this episode, we’re going to take a deeper look behind what we strive to look like on the outside.
