(00:26):
out can be hard. Right Believe me, I know if
this is you, this podcast is for you. I don't
claim to have all the answers, but I know who does.
God wants more for us, for you and for me.
You are created to live your best life, So I
hope you will go on this journey with me to
(00:48):
a more positive perspective and take those hard steps together
through Her Journey Towards Change. Together, let's break through the
barriers which are holding us back from achieving what God
has called us to be. So let's go, and I
hope you will go on this journey with me.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Welcome to Her Journey Towards Change podcast, where I believe
real conversations meet real growth and I'm glad that you
are here. This space was created for women who are
ready to break free from what's been holding them back.
To get honest about the struggles, the fears, and the
(01:47):
hope that comes when you choose growth over staying stuck.
Now I know what it feels like to be stuck,
because I've lived it. There was a time in my
life where I felt like I was just existing, going
through the motions and waiting for things to just magically
feel better. I told myself it wasn't the right time
(02:09):
to make changes, and I convinced myself that staying in
my comfort zone was safer than facing the unknown. But
the truth, the truth is that space wasn't safe at all.
It was draining my energy and my joy and the
relationships I cared about the most. So I had to
(02:30):
get real with myself. Staying stock wasn't just affecting me.
It was affecting how I showed up for my family,
my friends, and i'm gonna say even my faith. And
that was the moment I realized I had a choice.
I could stay small or I could step forward. And
(02:51):
that's why today's episode is so important, because I know
someone listening feels that same tug. You know you're meant
for more, but fear has kept you from moving. So
let's break this down together. Because the truth is, staying
stuck is costing you far more than you think. So
(03:12):
let's dive into episode number one hundred and here's what
I need you to know about being stuck. You weren't
meant to live life feeling stuck, but somewhere along the way,
the weight of fear and comfort and past pain may
have convinced you that staying where you are feels safer.
(03:35):
That's not true. Staying stuck isn't just holding you back.
It's keeping your life and your relationships and your purpose
on pause. But it's time to get real with yourself
because you have far more power than you've been giving
yourself credit for. So I want to share with you
(03:57):
three bold truths that you know for those who are
stuck in life and for those who are stuck and
choose to stay stuck in life. And number one, I
feel that staying stuck is a choice. It is is
a choice, but so is breaking free from it. You're
(04:21):
not powerless. Every day you stay in the same place,
you're not just holding yourself back. You're holding back the
impact that you could have on people who love you.
Believe me, they feel your pain in your distance and
the version of you, that's only half alive. You deserve
more and so do they. And the second truth is
(04:45):
comfort zones feel safe, but I think they're quietly stealing
your life. Staying stuck isn't protecting you, it's just keeping
you small. Every day that you stay in that space,
your dreams get quieter, your potential fades, and those who
(05:05):
care about you miss out on seeing the real you
step out of it and step forward, And you know what,
they don't need you to be perfect. What they need
is just for you to be present. And the last
one is that I feel you can keep waiting for
(05:29):
the right time, or you can decide that right now
is the right time. The longer you stay stuck, the
more it drains not just your spirit, but your relationships
and your purpose and your peace. Growth feels uncomfortable, but
so does staying in a life where you're just existing.
(05:53):
Don't let fear decide your future. You have the power
to change the story that you are living in. So
I'm hoping that this is your wake up call. No
one can make the choice for you. No one can't.
But you're capable of far more than you've let yourself believe.
(06:16):
And the time to start is now right now, one
step and one decision at a time. Please don't stay
stuck when you're meant to rise above it. Until next time,
Love you guys, sh
