What if the darkness you’re in isn’t punishment, but preparation?
In this soul-stirring solo episode, Tori Gordon unpacks what it means to be in the messy middle—that wilderness between who you were and who you're becoming. Through biblical metaphor, personal storytelling, and spiritual wisdom, she offers a tender and truthful roadmap for anyone navigating uncertainty, grief, transition, or the silent in-between seasons of life.

From walking away from her marriage with no plan, to learning how to trust divine timing, Tori shares how surrendering control is sometimes the only way forward—and how the desert can become holy ground.

Whether you're in a career shift, a breakup, a spiritual awakening, or simply unsure of what’s next—this episode is your reminder:
You’re not lost. You’re being led.
