Amiga, Listen

Amiga, listen… what if you can be grateful for your life and still grieve the one you thought you’d have?

In Episode 2 of Amiga, Listen, I’m talking about what it looks like to keep living while you wait for the things you’ve deeply prayed for.

From motherhood and career to dreams that haven’t happened yet, I’m sharing what I’m learning about holding gratitude and disappointment at the same time, preparing for the life I hope for, and being present in the life God has given me today.

In this conversation, we talk about:

• Being grateful while still wanting something more
• Grieving the expectations you had for your life
• How to pray and prepare without putting your life on pause
• Learning to enjoy the present while waiting for what’s next
• Trusting God when you don’t know when your prayers will be answered

I’m still learning how to live this out myself. And if you’re in a waiting season too, I hope this conversation reminds you that you can still pray, hope, dream, and live.

Pray for it. Prepare for it. But don’t postpone your life for it. 🤎

Real conversations, entre amigas. 🤎

Have you ever looked at your life and thought, “I thought I'd be further along by now”?

In this first episode of Amiga, Listen, I'm talking about something I've wrestled with for most of my life: feeling behind.

I've felt behind in relationships, marriage, motherhood, and my career. And I'm still waiting on some of the things I've deeply prayed for.

But I've been learning that being on a different timeline doesn't mean something is wrong with me.

In this conversation, we talk about what happens when we start measuring our worth by our timeline, comparing our lives to everyone else's milestones, and turning “not yet” into “never.”

I'll also share the perspective shifts that have been helping me walk through this season differently:

• Why your timeline isn't a measurement of your worth
• How to stop turning “not yet” into “never”
• What to do when you feel behind
• How to focus on what's actually in front of you
• What it looks like to trust God when you don't understand His timing

So if you've been feeling behind, grab your coffee and pull up a chair. This one's for you, amiga.
