274 | You're Not Moving Backwards, Give Yourself a Break (& some grace)

from Free & Well: Overcome Anxiety, Stress & Overwhelm & Grow Your Confidence With Mental Health & Faith Based Practices · host Devoney Kodad, Anxiety Therapist, Self Confidence Coach & Christian Yoga Teacher

A conversation that keeps coming up around me is this idea of "I feel like I'm moving backwards, I feel stuck, I feel like I'm falling behind" so today I'm sharing with you some encouraging, faith filled nuggets about how even though it feels like you're moving backwards, that there is purpose in exactly where you are. God is going to work everything out for your highest good & for His glory. There is purpose in where He has you & adding on layers of "I should be" or "I feel like I'm failing" create heaviness & pressure that doesn't need to exist. Whether you just graduated college, are transitioning careers, are going through a breakup, this episode is for you.I hope this episode encourages you.If you have a friend, who would love it, please send it her way.& if you haven't left a review of the podcast, please take 30 seconds & do that.
