Faith over Fear in my Second Act
In this solo episode, I’m getting real about fear—what it looks like, how it sneaks in, and how I’m navigating it one step at a time. From experiencing a full-blown panic attack during an overwhelming week to sitting down and recording this episode alone on camera (which was a fear in itself), I’m opening up about it all. It was a week where I let distraction, anxiety, and self-doubt spiral out of control.
But even in the middle of the mess, God met me—with steady love, quiet strength, and divine provision. If you’ve ever felt anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure of what’s next in your second act, I hope this honest conversation reminds you that you’re never alone. I’m sharing the fears, the flaws, and the faith that carried me through—because the journey isn’t always pretty, but God always shows up.
