If you’ve been walking through pain, confusion, and the hard work of healing, you’ve likely reached a new crossroad—one that whispers, “It’s time to move forward.” But what does that even mean when you’re still tired, unsure, and carrying scars from the past? In this episode, Tom breaks down what forward movement really looks like after devastation. Not a leap. Not a sprint. Just one small, intentional step at a time.


This episode is part of the Starting Over | Life 2.0 With God series and falls within Phase 5: Move of the six-part framework (Pray, Worship, Heal, Hope, Move, Trust). Tom explores how to create new routines, guard your healing, rebuild with purpose, and trust God to show you the next step—even when the path feels shaky. If you're wondering how to step into life again, this is your episode.
