When you find yourself slipping into the role of a work machine, it's time to hit pause and reassess. I'm Julia Woods, and I've been there, struggling to balance work and personal life. This episode is an open heart surgery of sorts, where I lay bare the transitions that upended my world. From the loneliness of an empty nest to the upheaval of the global pandemic, I share how reclaiming my passion and embracing community became the cornerstone of my healing journey.

Let's talk about the transformative power that comes from being vulnerable. Sometimes, burying ourselves in work is how we shield ourselves from pain. But here's the twist: I found solace in joining a community in Franklin, Tennessee, and discovered the profound impact of weekly sisterhood and Chip Dodd's "The Voice of the Heart." These experiences didn't just pull me out of my shell; they sparked a revival, offering insights that promise to change how you approach life's challenges.

Wrapping up, I invite you to explore the vision of a marriage growth community. The idea is simple yet profound—just as it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a community to nurture a marriage. I'm excited to share resources to support this journey, all aimed at helping you live fully alive and grow in love and connection. Join me as we pursue a life that's not just about surviving but thriving in every commitment we make, especially in marriage.

The Marriage Growth Community will officially launch on April 16th 2024.

If you are listening before that, here is the link to join the waitlist, where you will be among the first to get access.
