26 | When God Hits Pause: What the Wilderness Season Taught Me About Hustle, Identity, and True Rest
Description
Hey friend — today's episode is a tender one. We're talking about something that doesn't always show up on the to-do list or strategy call, but quietly shapes the way we lead and build: what happens when God asks you to stop.
I'm sharing a personal story from one of the hardest, most beautiful seasons of my life — when God invited me out of hustle and into the wilderness. At the height of business success, with systems thriving and strategy humming, I felt an unexpected tug… and before I knew it, everything paused.
Maybe you're there now — still doing all the "right" things, but underneath, you're tired. Disconnected. Wondering how long you can keep going without breaking.
If you've ever asked:
💭 "Why do I feel so drained, even though I'm being faithful?"
💭 "What if success looks right but feels off?"
💭 "Am I building with God… or just for Him?"
Then pull up a seat, sis. This episode is for you.
We're diving into:
✨ The hidden signs of hustle that don't look like hustle
✨ What a wilderness season really is — and why it's not punishment
✨ Four mindset shifts that helped me trade pressure for peace
✨ How to lead your business from a place of presence, not performance
✨ Practical steps you can take today to reconnect with God in the in-between
Because when the soul is stretched thin, even the strongest systems can't sustain you. But when you let God rebuild the foundation? You can grow with peace — not panic.
🎧 Tune in and be reminded: You are not behind. You are not forgotten. You are being formed.
