69| In the Wilderness? Day 41 Is Coming | ft. Mya Hull

In today’s episode, Melissa sits down with her new friend Mya Hull, a former top 1% leader in Mary Kay who felt God stirring something deeper, even in the middle of success. Mya shares her origin story, what that leadership season taught her about identity, and the “holy discontent” that led her to lay down what looked good on paper in order to follow what God was calling her into next. You’ll hear the powerful meaning behind “41”—the idea that we all walk through “40 seasons” of wilderness, waiting, testing, and transition… but day 41 comes, and God is faithful. Mya walks us through how her Ignite Your Joy workshop became the foundation for a faith-led community for women entrepreneurs, and how the 41 Sisterhood is helping women grow with joy, clarity, confidence, and obedience. If you’re in a season of waiting, this conversation will leave you with hope and practical encouragement to stay rooted in Christ while you walk toward your own “41 moment.” Follow Mya on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themyahull?igsh=ZzRoYjU1cTZxYTg4&utm_source=qr  Mya on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mya.hull  41 Sisterhood / Stan Store: https://stan.store/theMyaHull  Email Mya: [email protected] Free Purpose Bracket Resource: https://stan.store/theMyaHull/p/snag-your-free-purpose-bracket  Key Takeaways Success can be a slippery slope: even good things (recognition, achievement, leadership) can quietly become an identity or an idol if we’re not careful. Conviction is different than shame: Mya describes moments where God didn’t condemn her, but lovingly redirected her heart posture. God often uses transition to get our attention: new environments can create space to hear Him clearly again. Your gifts exist outside of your title: Mya shares the shift of separating her strengths from her previous business and realizing God could use them in a new way. You don’t need all the steps to obey: sometimes God gives the idea first and the logistics later. The “41” message is hope: wilderness doesn’t last forever, and God always keeps His promises. Fasting from noise brings clarity: Mya talks about getting quiet (not isolating, but choosing solitude with God). Your test becomes your testimony: God can use the very season you wish you could skip.
