May Recap: Repent, Return, Redo – Finding My Rhythm "With God"
In this raw and honest episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on my May. This month was all about navigating the messy intersection of ministry, media, and real life. I’m sharing the decisions that shaped my mindset, how I’m returning to the core habits and rituals that keep me grounded, and the books and podcasts that became my lifeline when anxiety tried to pull me off course. Whether you’re a church leader struggling with burnout or a creator trying to stay organized without losing your "why," this recap is for you. In this episode, we explore: The journey of transitioning from digital strategist to minister-in-training. How I’m learning to reframe anxiety (the "scrape" vs. "bullet hole" mindset). The power of praying "With God" rather than just "for" or "from" God. Practical, non-negotiable rituals: Bullet journaling, scripture prayer, and tech-aided habits.
