God Doesn’t Waste Anything: Lessons from the Therapy Room/ PART 2/
Monday May 19, 2025
Monday May 19, 2025
PART 2 with Vanessa Cruz
Season 2 EP. 9 From ashes to beauty—God redeems every part of our story.
In this unforgettable episode of Hanging with the Fabiens, we continue the conversation with our dear friend Vanessa Cruz- a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, U.S. Marine Corps veteran, wife, and mother- as she opens up about healing from childhood abuse, navigating infertility due to PCOS, and finding redemption in love and marriage. She shares how God healed her infertility and worked a miracle.
Melody and CD also become very vulnerable and share how Vanessa’s counseling helped unlock deep healing in their own life and marriage. The body keeps the score and we discuss how GOD cares for our body and desires to heal it from the trauma.
This episode is a powerful reminder that God doesn’t waste anything—not the trauma, not the tears, not even the silence.
He turns ashes into beauty. He turns pain into purpose. Keep the tissue close and maybe even a journal.

WOUNDEDOLOGY Part 2
Tuesday Apr 22, 2025
Tuesday Apr 22, 2025
🎙️HANGING WITH THE FABIENS with hosts CD+Melody Fabien
CD and Melody dive deep into the powerful impact of past wounds—how they shape the way we see God, the Church, and the people around us. These painful experiences often become the lenses through which we interpret life, forming what they call “Woundedology.”
In this episode, they unpack how unhealed hurts can influence our theology, become a wedge in our relationships, and quietly sabotage our marriages.
With honesty and Biblical wisdom, CD and Melody explore the path to healing, the power of forgiveness, and how to break free from cycles that no longer serve us.

ONE IN A MILLION: Our Love Story Pt 2 // The Kiss Heard Around The World
Monday Mar 10, 2025
Monday Mar 10, 2025
What happens when you surrender your love story to God?
For Melody, it meant keeping a prayer journal for her future husband and trusting God’s perfect timing. She never imagined she would meet CD on a mission trip to Uganda, Africa—right as she was finishing a seven-year vow God had led her to make.
As their journey unfolded, Melody realized CD was everything she had prayed for. One of her deepest prayers was for God to write a beautiful love story, and little did she know, their story would inspire the world.
Join us as we dive into the power of prayer, divine timing, and the kind of love only God can orchestrate. Whether you’re single, dating, or married, this podcast will encourage you to trust God with your heart and embrace the journey He has for you.
