In this episode of God-Sized Dreams, Melissa Batt gets real about why saying yes to God often feels so scary—and how fear, insecurity, and the need for control can quietly keep you from walking in your God-given purpose.

Melissa shares personal stories of how God taught her to overcome fear with faith, from her fear of driving and flying to the moment she stepped out in obedience at church. You’ll learn why true confidence isn’t about perfection or self-reliance, but about trusting God one baby step at a time.

If you’ve ever wrestled with fear, procrastination, or feeling “not enough,” this episode will help you flip the script, build courage through faith, and start walking boldly in purpose.
