In this week’s episode, I’m talking about the power of showing up — for your community, for the people you love, and for yourself. Life feels heavy for so many of us right now, and community has never been more important. Sometimes the blessing isn’t in the outcome…it’s in the simple act of being present.
We’ll explore how showing up creates connection, how God can meet you right in the middle of supporting someone else, and why your own presence is one of the safest gifts you can give.
If you’ve been feeling stretched, tired, or unsure, I hope this conversation encourages you to keep showing up — gently, intentionally, and with grace.
