39: What Used To Work Doesn't Anymore
Have you ever reached a point where you’re doing everything you know to do, but nothing seems to move forward anymore? You’re trying harder, being responsible, doing what worked before—and it’s just not working. In this episode, Tom Clairmont and Paul Berard talks honestly about that unsettling place where effort no longer produces results. Drawing from his own experience of starting over after divorce, career disruption, and financial loss, Tom reframes this moment not as failure, but as a sign that the season has changed. Sometimes what carried you faithfully through one chapter simply isn’t designed for the next one.
What You’ll Hear- Why stalled progress doesn’t mean something is wrong with you
- How life transitions often require a new approach, not more effort
- Why forcing the old way can actually keep you stuck
- The difference between pushing harder and moving forward wisely
- How God often uses pauses to prepare us for what’s next
- Why letting go of what worked before can feel scary—but freeing
- How to recognize when it’s time to change how you move forward
Why You Should Listen
If you’re frustrated, tired, or quietly asking yourself why life feels stuck right now, this episode will speak directly to where you are. It’s for anyone navigating job loss, relationship changes, financial stress, or a season where faith feels uncertain. You’ll be reminded that you’re not broken, behind, or failing—you may simply be standing at a turning point.
So many people blame themselves when progress slows, when in reality, God may be inviting them to move differently. This episode helps you release the pressure to keep forcing what no longer fits and instead listen for what God might be preparing next. It offers clarity, reassurance, and hope for anyone learning how to move forward when the old way stops working.
