When life gets tough, do you quit or keep pushing? 💭

In this inspiring conversation, Pita Tangifolau Mose shares how he turned setbacks into stepping stones. From failing his EMT exam the first time to facing financial struggles in college, Folau never let excuses define him. Instead, he found his purpose, leaned into his gift, and kept moving forward; now crushing his goals on the path to becoming a firefighter and paramedic in HEB.

This episode is a reminder that the faster you find your gift, the quicker you step into the life you were created for. 🚀

✨ What you’ll take away:

• ​Why failing forward is part of the process
• ​How to stop wasting time and lock in on your purpose
• ​The power of setting new goals once you hit the last one
• ​Why excuses will always hold you back if you let them

If you’ve ever felt like giving up, this conversation will reignite your fire to keep going and live life on purpose. 🔥

Are you feeling overlooked or stuck in a season of waiting? You're not alone and you're certainly not forgotten.

In this episode of What Anna Said, we dive into the purpose of the waiting season. Kim shares how God sometimes uses this time to prune us. Sally explains that sometimes the wait is about developing our character so we can handle the very thing we're praying for. And Anna reminds us of Isaiah 49:15, how we are etched in God's hands, never forgotten.

You'll walk away encouraged, knowing that even in the wait, you can keep moving forward in faith, holding onto God's truth, and trusting that your next season is coming.

What started as an empty inbox on the final day of our scholarship deadline turned into an overwhelming response that only God could orchestrate.

In this episode, we recap the 2025 scholarship journey, the hard decisions behind the scenes, and how His plan was greater than our own.
