This episode wraps up the Brave Beyond Service series—and it’s one we hope stays with you.

It pulls together the stories, struggles, and soul work we’ve shared so far. It’s about what happens next. After the identity crisis. After the hard questions. After the quiet rebuilding begins.

If you’ve ever wondered, “Where do I go from here?”—this episode is for you.

We’ll revisit the truths you’ve uncovered and the strength you’ve earned. And we’ll leave you with a powerful reminder: you’re not starting over. You’re stepping forward—with clarity, courage, and God walking with you every step of the way.

This isn’t the end. It’s the beginning of something stronger.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• A powerful message of strength from within—spoken like your own voice
• An unexpected invitation to see yourself through a lens of holy resilience
• A reminder that your progress matters, even when it’s messy
• Practical ways to keep moving forward with grace and grit

Three Ways to Keep Going:
