But somewhere along the way, you became disconnected from yourself. You keep going because that's what you've always done. You show up. You serve. You achieve. You hold everything together. Yet beneath the full calendar and endless responsibilities is a quiet question you can't ignore: Is this really the life God created me to live? Below the Circle is the podcast for women who are ready to stop circling on autopilot and start landing—creating intentional Landing Moments™ that reconnect them to God, themselves, and their lives.

You’ve been busy, capable, dependable, and strong for so long that no one may have noticed how heavy it has become. Maybe even you forgot to ask what pain has been hiding underneath every yes, every role, every title, and every “I’m fine.” In this episode, Dr. Phyllis shares a tender story of disappointment, loss, and the moment she realized she was not simply being strong. She was grieving. Through Psalm 23 and 1 Peter 5:7, she invites you to stop performing strength, bring your grief into the light, and ask God for the next step, not the whole plan.
