Have you ever felt stuck waiting for the perfect time to start something new?
In this episode, we’re busting the myth of the perfect moment and talking about how real progress begins—with small, faithful steps. I’ll share how perfectionism and indecision can keep us frozen, and why momentum is one of the most powerful tools we have for creating real change. You’ll hear stories, encouragement, and practical tips to help you take that brave first step today.
Let this be your reminder: you don’t have to have it all figured out to begin. Start where you are—and let God guide the rest.
