In this episode, I’m opening up about my journey from chasing the “soft life” to truly surrendering my life to God. What looked like peace and luxury on the outside left me burned out, overextended, and spiritually empty. But God, in His mercy, showed me that real rest doesn’t come from products or curated moments — it comes from His presence.
Together we’ll talk about the side effects of soft living, the convictions that shook me awake, and the spiritual antidotes God offers through His Word. This is an intimate conversation straight from my heart to yours, so grab a snack, get comfortable, and let’s gather for a few minutes of fellowship.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
How I realized the “soft life” was draining me instead of filling me
The symptoms and side effects of living for comfort and consumption
Why conviction is actually a loving invitation from God

Romans 12:2 (renewing your mind instead of conforming to the world)
Complimentary Gift In this episode, I also share my love for Joshua’s podcast, Untrenditional. His wisdom of God’s Word is refreshing, and I think you’ll walk away with just as many nuggets as I did. Go check him out and let me know what you think!
