In October 2020, Makenna Myler made headlines when a viral video showed her running a mile in 5 minutes and 25 seconds. Those numbers would be impressive for anyone—but Makenna did it just 10 days before giving birth to her first child. Still, her running time isn't the only thing Makenna is excited about; it's her opportunity to shine a positive light on motherhood and wellness in pregnancy. On this week's episode, Makenna shares what she has discovered about the sometimes surprising role of God's plan as we pursue our hopes and dreams.

"He connects the dots differently than you would."
