What happens to you when you are going to try a new thing? Most of you don’t really like change. You like it while it’s exciting and new, yet, when the new wears off, it gets discarded and you're on to the next thing. But, what if the new thing is BIG, like a career move? Or location change? Or relationship status change? What do you do?

3 different responses that I’ve seen

You hit it head on. You're a bull in the china closet, leaping before you look, only assessing the consequences down the road. Maybe you go on your “gut feeling or intuition”, maybe you know the voice of the Holy Spirit so well, you Just Do It.

OR maybe

You freak out, get anxious and procrastinate? You may not know this, most procrastination is usually the result of Resistance, per Steven Pressfield in the War of Art, feigning as perfectionism and insecurity.

OR

Do you hide, lack honesty and vulnerability? This is me. I go underground, avoidance behavior. I attempt to hide from God - 😂 This of course is just another form of Resistance. Afraid of what other think, I hide.

Psalm 139 tells us that we cannot hide from God. He knows not only everything about us, including all our insecurities and doubts, He formed us exactly the way we are for His purposes. And this is where I landed a few days ago. Smack dad in the middle of one of my favorite Psalms.

So, I’m leaping, taking the big step. Every time I try something new, I’m reminded of the scene in Indiana jones where he must cross a chasm that has no bridge. He figures out by the clues he’s given, he must take a step first, then the stepping stone appears. Our action must come first

This podcast is the first of my new format. Shorter, to the point. I will include everything from what to eat and drink to how to move, sleep, think feel and have faith. So you’ll want to stay in touch and subscribe to learn more about my BIG, SCARY project.

I’d love to hear about your forms of resistance. Will you just stay stuck and justify your position OR will you take the leap into the exciting adventure God has planned for you?

Are you wondering why you have the messes in your life? Are you unable to see where your life is going? Julie Landi believes inside every one of you lies a unique set of strengths, values, and passions, and if you take the time to discover, develop and deploy them, you will make the world a better place. During our conversation we took a deep dive into where the "messes" in our lives intersect with God's purposes, her journey of helping women find their vision for their life, and the one area in her own life where she doesn't have it all figured out.

Self sabotage, not good enough, workaholic, perfectionistic and emotionally shut down. Not that long ago, those are the words that I would use to describe myself. Most people would never believe that as I am generally a happy, optimistic person when you meet me, however, the inside and the outside didn't match. There was a pivotal moment when I realized I needed to change. Here's a piece of the story of how my insides and outside now match. I really believe we don't have time to waste racing through life. And, that our spark and authenticity for life glows when we take control of our health. I help women match their inside and outside so that you can have the body, mind and faith you crave and be, do and have the life you desire.
