Find Your Calling: What Your 3 a.m. Wake-Up Call Is Trying to Tell You

Have you ever woken up at 3 a.m. with your mind spinning — questioning your career, your purpose, or whether you’re meant for something more?
 Those quiet middle-of-the-night moments aren’t random.
 They’re often the truest whispers of your calling… showing up before the world gets loud again.

In this episode, Sheri explores why these 3 a.m. wake-up calls happen, what they’re trying to reveal, and why so many successful, high-achieving women end up hitting the “snooze button” on the very thing they’re being called to do.

You’ll learn how to separate fear from truth, calm from chaos, and calling from noise — and how to begin answering that nudge without burning your life or career to the ground.

In This Episode, You Will Learn:

🌙 The Power of 3 a.m. Thoughts
Why those early-morning ideas often hold deeper wisdom — showing you who you’re becoming before you fully see it in the daytime.

⚔ Fear vs. Faith
How to tell the difference between the quiet, sacred whisper (“I’m meant for more”) and the loud, fearful voice (“What will people think?”).

🦈 The 3 Saboteurs
Meet the “sharks,” “danger buoys,” and “anchors” that keep you stuck, uncertain, or second-guessing your next step.

🎨 An Introduction to the Portfolio Career
Why building multiple streams of work aligned with your strengths can give you the freedom and security to answer your calling with peace instead of panic.

🪜 A Simple 3-Step Action Plan
A practical, strengths-aligned way to capture your next 3 a.m. idea and turn it into confident forward momentum — without quitting your job or blowing up your life.

If you’ve been feeling restless, craving more purpose, or sensing a shift you can’t quite name… this episode will help you understand why — and what your next right step might be.
