IT STARTS WITH US — Episode One
This episode is for women—especially eldest daughters, immigrant daughters, mothers, and women of faith—who learned early how to carry weight quietly and keep going, even when tired.
There was love.
There was sacrifice.
There was faith.
And still, many of us were never taught how to rest, receive, or live from wholeness.
In this episode of It Starts With Us, I offer a gentle reframe of spiritual growth—one rooted in awareness, presence, and small faithful pauses rather than pressure, perfection, or performance.
We talk about:
Letting spiritual growth meet you where you are
Practices that fit real life, not ideal routines
Spiritual direction as noticing God, not being told what to do
A simple invitation into the Pause Challenge
You don’t have to rush.
You don’t have to prove anything.
Five minutes is enough.
🌿 Pause Challenge
A daily five-minute practice to pause, breathe, notice, and be honest with God.

Because healing doesn’t start with doing more.
It starts with us—one pause at a time.
