On The Edge with Brittany MacLeod & Jacki Mercer

So, without further ado, let's dive right into the next chapter of our learning journey!   “There are so many opportunities, even when it looks like there isn’t and I have to remind myself of that sometimes… you can’t loose what God has for you if you continue to walk with him and surrender yourself” - Brittany   -----   If you enjoyed the show, please leave us a five star review and a comment telling us why you loved the show.

Have you ever found yourself caught between the desire for convenience and the need to push yourself out of your comfort zone?    From our daily routine to the way we shop and even how we communicate, convenience is something we crave. But have you ever thought about when convenience might not serve us? In today's episode, we'll explore the topic of convenience and how finding the right balance between convenience and inconvenience can help us to achieve our goals and move forward in life.   We have learned that sometimes we need to do things that are uncomfortable or inconvenient to push ourselves forward. It's easy to get stuck in our comfort zones, doing what's easy and familiar, but that's not always the best way to grow and achieve our goals. On the other hand, there are times when convenience can be a real asset, freeing up our time and energy to focus on the things that really matter.    It's all about finding that balance and knowing when to push yourself and when to lean into the convenience that life has to offer. So, let's dive in and explore this topic together.    “Is this convenience or inconvenience in my life, pushing me ahead and stretching me and growing me and is it turning me into the person that I actually want to be?” - Britt   If you enjoyed the show, please leave us a five star review and a comment telling us why you loved the show.
