Feeling behind doesn’t always mean you are.
In this episode, we unpack the pressure to succeed, the tension of waiting seasons, and the difference between chasing success and walking in obedience. If you’ve been struggling to trust God where you are, this conversation will challenge and ground you.
Why do you feel behind… even when you’re doing everything “right”?
“Who told us that this is what success is supposed to look like?”
“Am I in the career that the Lord wants me to be in?”
In this episode, I bring on a few special guests- Trent Pace, Kathryn Tucker, Ebenezer, & Paige Condrey. We’re breaking down the quiet pressure so many of us live in at our current age—the pressure to always be doing more, building faster, and becoming “successful.”
But what if the issue isn’t our discipline.. what if it’s our definition of success?
This conversation challenges the way we look at productivity, waiting seasons, and what it actually means to trust the Lord with our life- including our careers.
Because it’s possible to say we trust Him—and still live like everything depends on us.
If you’ve been:
- Feeling behind in life
- Questioning what’s next for your career
- Not trusting the Lord’s will with your career and college timeline at your age
this episode will meet you there.
You’ll walk away rethinking what you’re chasing, why you’re chasing it, and whether it’s actually aligned with what the Lord is asking of you.
