110 - How to Lean Into the Waves When Life Gets Real
In the movie True Spirit, Jessica reminds her coach that he’d told her to work with the waves, not fight against them. I won’t spoil the movie in case you haven’t seen it yet, but let’s borrow this nugget of wisdom because it applies to

- the fear pinching hard, making it difficult to breathe, see the good in God, get up in the morning
- the impostor syndrome that says you can’t and shouldn’t do that thing God put on your heart
- the hard stuff that gets in between you and your spouse, you and one of your kids, you and a friend
