Summer Series #3 - The Comparison Trap: How to Break Free & Embrace Your God-Given Purpose - PLUS 3000 women joining BIBLE STUDY!

Have you ever caught yourself scrolling, wishing for someone else’s life? Feeling behind, less than, or invisible? In today’s episode, we’re talking all about comparison, the silent trap that robs us of joy, contentment, and our God given identity. We’ll break down how the enemy uses envy to distract us, how we often idolize others’ lives, and how to find freedom by embracing your unique calling in Christ.
We’ll unpack how living set apart isn’t about chasing success, flaunting things, or making our name great, but about making His name known.

A Prayer for Peace in Every Season

Whether you’re in a season of waiting, loss, financial stress, or maybe one full of unexpected joy, this episode is for you. We’re diving into the truth that every season of life has purpose, even when it feels overwhelming, lonely, or uncertain. Maybe you’re grieving, or maybe you’re celebrating, no matter what, God is with you in it all.
In today’s episode, we’ll talk about:
Finding peace when your season feels heavy
Holding onto faith in times of waiting, grief, or financial struggle
Why the joyful seasons matter just as much as the hard ones
Letting go of control and giving God every part of your life
How to reflect on past seasons and see God’s hand in your growth and transformation
You’re not alone, and this episode is a reminder that God is near to you right now, right here, in this very moment.
 
Key Takeaways:
You don’t have to understand the season you’re in to find peace.
Looking back shows us that God was with us, and we can trust He still is.
Joy and struggle can co-exist. Every season has fruit.
Letting go of control makes room for God to move.

Finding Rest This Summer: Trusting God will Provide in the Waiting Season

Are you in a season of waiting—feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or like God is silent?
Whether you're a single mom juggling it all, a wife holding it down while your husband works out of town, or simply a woman searching for peace, rest, and purpose, this episode will encourage your soul.
 
In this episode, we’re talking about real rest—not just naps or vacations, but soul-deep stillness. For the woman who feels like she's waiting on what’s next... this one is for you.
Maybe you feel a nudge in your spirit that something is coming, but you don’t know what it is yet. The waiting feels long. The in-between is quiet. And the world keeps shouting, "Do more!" But God is whispering something different: "Come to Me, and rest."
Together, we’ll explore why it’s not only okay—but holy—to pause, to be still, and to trust God with your today, even if tomorrow still feels unclear.
Whether you're a mom who wonders if she should be doing more, or you’re just craving permission to slow down—this episode will encourage you to lean into God’s peace, rest in His presence, and believe that this season is not wasted.
In This Episode, We’ll Talk About:
Why God designed rest as a rhythm, not a reward
What to do when you feel the in-between season stretch longer than expected
How to trust God when the next step hasn’t been revealed
The truth that it’s okay to be “just” a mom—your calling is enough
Encouragement for women who feel behind or unsure of their purpose
Scriptures to Meditate On:
“Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” – Matthew 11:28
“Be still, and know that I am God.” – Psalm 46:10
“In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength.” – Isaiah 30:15
Journal Prompts:
Where am I trying to rush God’s timing?
What does real rest look like for me in this season?
In what ways am I resisting stillness, and why?
What is one area where I can practice trusting God with today?
