Why I Stepped Back

In this re-entry episode, I share why I stepped back, what became clear during the pause, and how I’m showing up now. Many women mistake exhaustion for weakness, grief for distance from God, and transition for failure. This conversation is about steadiness, not pressure, and learning how to move forward wisely when life feels unclear.

If you’ve been tired, uncertain, or carrying more than people realize, this episode is for you.

In This Episode, We Talk About

  • Why stepping back can be wisdom, not quitting
  • Emotional exhaustion vs. lack of faith
  • Why clarity often comes after steadiness
  • How transition affects decision-making
  • What it means to stay present without rushing the season

A Note on Support

I offer a 30-minute Season Reset Session for women who need to reset before making decisions or pushing forward.

This is not ongoing therapy.
It’s a focused, practical reset to help you talk through the noise, name your season, and regain footing.

It’s okay to be okay.
Not because everything is resolved, but because God is still present.
Let not your heart be troubled.
