This is my first episode back after wedding week! 🎉 We had the most magical, joy-filled celebration — and I’m still floating from all the love, beauty, and answered prayers. Thank you so much for your sweet messages and kind words — it meant the world to me!

Today we’re diving into a topic that has been close to my heart for years — your calling.

If you’ve ever wished God would just send you an email with your purpose, your five-year plan, and a clear next step — this one’s for you. I’ve been there! But over time, I’ve learned that our calling isn’t something we find somewhere “out there.” It’s something we wake up to — something that’s been right in front of us all along, waiting to be tended.

In this episode, I share:
💫 The four biggest myths we believe about our calling — and the truth that sets us free
💫 The story of a very cringey poem I wrote in high school (and what it revealed about my purpose even then)
💫 Why resistance is often a sign that you’re standing right in the middle of what matters
💫 How your gifts are never really about you — they’re the way God meets someone else’s need
💫 And why you’ll never “feel ready,” but you can still start — one small, brave step at a time

This is such an encouraging episode, especially if you’re in a season of wondering “what’s next?” or feeling a tug toward something new. Maybe you’ve been belittling your own gifts, comparing them to others, or waiting for perfect timing. I want this to be your reminder that:

Your calling isn’t lost. It’s already here.
Your gifts aren’t small. They’re sacred.
And the world needs what only you can give.

You don’t need a full roadmap — just the courage to say yes to what’s stirring in your heart.
