But what if we’re asking the wrong questions altogether? In this episode of Gen Z Unplugged, Hannah Faulkner joins the conversation to unpack what it actually means to set goals with eternity in mind. From faith and fitness to work, mentorship, and burnout, we wrestle with the tension between worldly success and kingdom impact—and why Gen Z feels stuck chasing outcomes that never quite satisfy. We talk about delayed gratification, stewarding your body and mind, resisting the pull of constant productivity, and choosing goals that shape who you’re becoming—not just what you’re accomplishing. If you’re entering 2026 asking “What really matters?”—this episode is for you.  00:49 — Your 2026 Goals Might Be Aimed at the Wrong Thing 01:38 — Stop Building a Resume and Start Thinking About Your Eulogy 03:56 — When Self-Improvement Quietly Replaces God 05:38 — Why Hustle Culture Is Burning Out Gen Z Women 07:52 — Doomscrolling, AI, and the Death of Deep Thinking 10:18 — The Mentorship Gap No One Is Talking About 13:06 — You Become What You Watch, Read, and Follow 17:05 — Fitness Culture Is Lying to You About Your Body 23:07 — Delayed Gratification Is a Spiritual Skill 27:58 — Silence With God Might Be the Hardest Discipline GenZ Unplugged is the official podcast for the Clare Boothe Luce Center for Conservative Women. Rotating hosts are Lauren Husmann, Catherine Hendershott, Rachel Hurley, and Hannah Faulkner. Producer is Sandra Scarlatoiu.  Listen, rate, and subscribe on your favorite podcast platform!  ACAST - Apple Podcasts - Spotify - Google Podcasts - YouTube - Rumble  Send us your thoughts on this episode @realgenzunplu… ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/genz-unplugged-7371995/episodes/resume-goals-vs-eternal-goals-what-are-you-really-building-in-2026/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/genz-unplugged-7371995/resume-goals-vs-eternal-goals-what-are-you-really-building-in-2026.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
