## Resource

I have two weeks left at my job. And if I’m being honest, this season feels both exciting and unsettling. I’m not fully established yet. I’m not fully secure yet. I’m not fully settled yet. This isn’t the dream. It’s the transition. If you’re in a season like that too — this episode is for you. In this episode, I share what this season actually feels like — the discipline tightening, the financial awareness, the identity shift, and the small realities (yes, even skipping coffee) that come with stepping into something new. If you’re in a season where things feel unstable, unclear, or unfinished — this is for you. I talk about: What transition exposes in us How to prepare faithfully instead of panic Why obedience doesn’t require confidence And how I’m trusting God to redirect me if I’m wrong Don’t idolize transition seasons. They’re forming seasons. If you’re walking through one right now, I hope this helps you stay steady. P.S. If this episode resonated because you’re navigating your own transition, I’d love to support you. You can book a free intro call with me here: https://pursuitofcalling.as.me/intro We’ll talk through your season, your fears, and your next faithful step.
