Description
What would life look like if we eased our grip on our desires, opening ourselves up to the unexpected twists and turns of life? Buckle up as we embark on a journey of exploring desire, its relationship with God's will, and how it shapes our lives. We delve into how our fixation on outcomes, akin to the pursuit of the American dream, can limit us. We also discuss how allowing our desires to guide us, without clinging to specific outcomes, can pave the way for a life full of surprises and profound growth. Have you ever pushed yourself relentlessly only to realize that the fulfillment you were seeking still slipped through your fingers. We've been there, and we're sharing our experiences and insights. We have a heart-to-heart discussion about the importance of checking in with ourselves, making space for rest, and acknowledging our limitations. We explore the concept of being in God's will, which calls for mindfulness of our internal resources. We are inviting you to reconsider your priorities and learn how to find fulfillment beyond the traditional parameters of success. To illustrate our conversation, we walk you through Brenda's personal adventure in New Orleans, where a simple quest for chicory coffee turned into an unforgettable journey of discovery. What started as a desire for a specific coffee led her to beautiful surprises and memorable interactions. It's a testament to how remaining open to the possibilities can lead to magical moments. We conclude by reflecting on our shared exploration of desire and the beauty of the unexpected. And we invite you to share your own experiences, because we believe that every story holds valuable insights. So, join us, and let's explore the fascinating topic of desire together! We'd love to hear from you. Either via email at [email protected], and [email protected]. Or on instagram: @CoachCatherineN and @Brenda_Fredericks
