It's another takeover! And today, I'm with my friend, fellow writer/speaker, and Called Creatives Co-founder Lisa Whittle. We are tackling why most women say they don't feel strong, what it means to weed through all the competing voices in your life, and how to move forward when you want to hold back.
We also talk about the huge, devastating decision that I had to make last fall- and whether or not I regret it.
Lisa is such a truth-teller and we bring the heat in this conversation. If you feel like you're ready to Stand Strong, but don't know how to get out of your own way- this one's for you.
We chat about:
1. How self-doubt hinders us from moving forward
2. The mind shift of partnering with God
3. The different type of people we need in our lives
Favorite quotes:
1. When we begin to take God
seriously, we will take ourselves seriously.
2.
We need to think about God partnering with us in our daily
activities. If he's not going to fail us and he's not going to
abandon us let's shift that and say he's going to strengthen us.
He's going to give us everything we need. We don't have to feel
strong, we don't have to feel confident, we don't have to feel like
we know what we're doing everyday. but if we lean into him and let
him give us that little boost to get going, and wisdom to know what
to do, we will have the strength to put one foot in front of the
other.
3. The only way we're going to
get strong is to make sure that we get out of our own way. Because
yes, adversity holds us back, but I think so many times self-doubt
holds women back and we just don't start moving forward and do what
God wants us to do.
4.
We have this idea that yes, God will partner with pastors, or God
will partner with people working in a non-profit on the other side
of the world feeding hungry children but God works with all of us,
and all of our work matters.
5. When we think about whatever we're doing in our life, however, we're living, whatever the work is that God put in hand at that moment that day it is a partnership with him because everything we do that makes this world a better place that helps people is fulfilling his purpose for them.
Great things we discussed:
1. Called Creatives
