This week on To Help You Heal, I’m kicking off a new series all about what it actually looks like to “go for it.”

If you’ve ever felt stuck between a sense that God is calling you to something more and the fear that maybe you’re not ready — this episode is for you.

I’m diving into that space between hesitation and action — the place where fear often sneaks in and pretends to be wisdom or practicality. I’ve been there. I know how real that inner resistance can feel. But the truth is, fear isn’t from God — and it doesn’t get to be the one driving the narrative anymore.

In this episode, I share some of my own stories of fear, disappointment, and learning how to trust again — even when it hurt. We’ll explore why it’s okay to feel afraid, what that fear is really saying, and how to take one small, faith-filled step forward even when you don’t feel “ready.”

 

In This Episode, I Talk About:

• 
  

  Why hesitation is normal — but fear pretending to be wisdom? Not so much.

  
  


• 
  

  The ways past disappointment can make us build walls and call it “protection”

  
  


• 
  

  What 2 Timothy 1:7 reminds me (and my kids!) when fear creeps in at night

  
  


• 
  

  How to recognize fear as a storyteller — and rewrite that story with God

  
  


• 
  

  What I do when I feel stuck or unsure about moving forward

  
  


• 
  

  A simple prayer I come back to when I need to rebuild trust

  
  

A Reflection for Your Quiet Time:

What comes up for you when you think about moving forward? Fear? Disappointment? The urge to protect yourself from getting hurt again? Bring that to God this week — and ask Him to show you one place where you can choose trust.
