We’re halfway through 2025—and it’s the perfect moment to pause, reflect, and realign. In this episode of the Flourish Podcast, Stephanie shares a grace-filled invitation to slow down and take inventory of your life, your habits, your heart, and your walk with the Lord.

This is not about performance. It’s about presence.

Join us as we unpack powerful questions like:

• How am I really doing in my faith, wellness, and mindset?

• What has God taught me over the last six months?

• Where do I feel out of alignment—and what might need to shift?

• What can I celebrate, even if I didn’t reach all my goals?

• How can I reflect without judgment and step into the next season with peace?

Stephanie also shares how to use tools like journaling, prayerful prompts, and memory reflection (hello, camera roll!) to honor the growth you've walked through—even if it looks different than what you planned.

You are worthy and capable of living a full and flourishing life. Success isn’t just possible—it’s meant for you.

Stephanie discusses what it looks like to walk through a week full of emotional highs, unexpected opportunities, and the struggle of not knowing which step to take next. Through worship, nature, scripture, and surrender, Stephanie invites you into her process of releasing control and trusting God—even when clarity hasn't fully come.

Key Takeaways:

• It's okay to feel unsure when facing unexpected opportunities or tough decisions.

• True surrender isn't just saying "I trust God" but actually letting go of the need to control the outcome.

• Sometimes the breakthrough comes not through a Bible verse or a checklist, but through worship, quiet, and nature.

• God meets us in the in-between—when we're wrestling, doubting, and still choosing to seek Him.

• Faith is like a plant turning toward sunlight; we grow stronger as we orient ourselves toward God and His Word.
