“Soon I found myself co-leading a small group of people wrestling with their own pain, questions, and disappointments. Even when I felt too bleak to inspire any of them, I knew this was where I needed to be. Because of my rejection I saw and understood the pain of a whole new demographic of people. I had a more profound acceptance of a gray world where things weren’t as black and white as I thought they were. I had much more grace and love for others who hadn’t made the wisest choices in life. No experience is wasted.”

“When paralyzed at a crossroads, our stress is often centered around the pieces we don’t know. We worry about the future. We seek to make the unknowns known. We try to pin down the things we can’t control. How can we look at our paths from a place of hope rather than fear?”

“Passion is the fuel that drives you forward, and it’s the contagious energy that inspires others. It’s a directional desire that might start as an interest and turn into growing curiosity.

Yes, there are seasons where you’re miserable at work, yet you don’t feel free to follow your passion. There are times when you feel as if you are in limbo, waiting for one path to end and the next one to begin, but that’s a great time to take inventory.”

“Doubt will creep in. Life will interfere at times, whether that means distractions, financial obligations, or health detours. Yet, in each of these situations you can learn skills and disciplines that can serve as steppingstones. They might not make sense now, but each one can offer something valuable for the next season.”
