In this week’s episode of the Circle 31 Podcast, Ellen and Melissa are joined by Ellen’s friend Anna Johnson for a vulnerable and hope-filled conversation about transition, disappointment, and redefining success. From music production to missions work to public school teaching, Anna’s story is full of twists and turns. Through it all, she’s learning what it really means to trust God when the future is unclear.

If you’re feeling stuck, unsure of your next step, or questioning where God is in your current season, this episode is for you.

You’ll hear:

• How to redefine success as listening for God and doing what He says.
• Why your identity matters more to God than your résumé.
• Encouragement to rest, even when things feel uncertain or undone.
