Listen Later

After nearly a decade of conversations, growth, and shared wisdom, this episode feels especially meaningful… and monumental. In this heartfelt conversation, Krista Gilbert and Alexandra Kuykendall reflect on the courage it takes to step into uncertainty, release what once felt certain, and trust God with what comes next.

Together, we explore the tension between faith and certainty, the neuroscience behind fear and resilience, and the invitation to hold opportunities — and seasons — with open hands. Whether you're navigating a transition, sensing a new beginning, or simply trying to take the next faithful step, this episode will meet you there.

Because sometimes the bravest thing we can do is trust the unknown. We're doing that in today's episode. Push play to find out how.

In This Episode
  • Why endings and new beginnings require courage
  • The difference between faith and certainty
  • How fear impacts the brain and nervous system
  • Spiritual practices that help us embrace change
