You Know There's a Better Way to Live
You're choosing trust over control. Generosity over scarcity. Service over self-obsession.
And it feels lonely.
You're swimming upstream in a culture screaming "hustle harder, get more, hold tighter"—and when you're struggling, the advice comes fast: "Just trust God." "Let go and let God."
Well-meaning words that feel impossible when your chest is tight, you can't sleep, and you're barely making it through the day.
You don't need another spiritual platitude. You need something tangible to hold onto when surrender feels too hard.
That's why Oh! Behind the Seams exists.
I Know Because I've Been There
Hey, I'm Kandis—founder of Oh! Behind the Seams.
There was a time when anxiety had me paralyzed. Unable to drive. Unable to leave my house alone. Caught in a grip so tight I couldn't trust myself with my life or God with my future.
Then came breast cancer—the ultimate test of surrender. Life-altering decisions with no guarantees. I had two choices: grip tighter or release.
I chose surrender. Not because I was strong, but because I had nothing left to hold onto.
And in that terrifying release, I found safety.
Today, I'm healed of cancer and disabling anxiety. But every day, I still have to choose: open hands or clenched fists. Trust or control. Peace or fear.
Through surrender, I learned to trust. That trust led to peace. And peace created space to serve and give generously.
Why We Live With Open Hands
Oh! stands for Open Hands—the physical posture of surrender.
It's the opposite of white-knuckling your way through life. It's the daily choice to release control and trust God with what you cannot hold.
Every piece we create is a tangible reminder:
- Open hands over clenched fists
- Trust over anxiety
- Service over self-obsession
- Generosity over scarcity
