223: Why I'm No Longer in a Rush | My Humbling Experience Lately


Listen Later

Back on April 1st, Episode 213, I shared a personal chitchat about why I was working with urgency – because life felt short, and I didn’t want to waste time. I wanted to crush my personal and business goals as soon as possible because we’re not guaranteed time.


And while most of that was true, here I am 10 episodes later taking a lot of that back, not because life isn’t short, but because I’ve come to realize that Jesus never hurries, and maybe I wasn’t supposed to either.


In this episode, I open up about one of the most refining seasons I’ve ever walked through: burnout, back-to-back ER visits, fertility struggles, financial debt, and business plans falling apart. But it’s also the season where God met me most tenderly, showing that even in weakness, He always provides. That even in chaos, He always brings peace. And yes, that includes an unexpected $18,000 check that covered every single debt I was carrying.


This is my raw, unfiltered testimony of God’s faithfulness in the slow and uncertain. If you’re in a  season that feels the same, where everything seems completely off-track, please hold on to your faith. God sees you. God hears you. And He will make everything perfect in His time.


Soli Deo Gloria. 🤍
