#73- Choosing What Is Better: A Season of Sacred Transition

from Awake & Aligned

Transitions can feel uncertain. Even when change is necessary or positive, it often stirs a mix of emotions. But embracing these sacred shifts allows us to grow, discover deeper purpose, and align with God’s calling.Dr. Phyllis shares her personal journey as she steps away from decades of service in medicine into a new chapter. Drawing wisdom from Luke 10 and the story of Martha and Mary, she encourages us to pause and reflect on what truly matters—choosing what is better.Life pulls us in many directions, often keeping us occupied with good things. Like Martha, we get caught up in responsibilities, expectations, and the need to do more. But Jesus gently reminds us, just as he reminded Martha, that sometimes we need to set aside distractions, sit at his feet, and embrace his greater plan for us.Dr. Phyllis speaks with wisdom and grace, reminding us that God is in control—even when transitions feel overwhelming. She encourages women to keep pursuing God’s purpose even in the midst of chaos. Transitions aren’t just about what’s ending; they’re sacred opportunities for transformation. It takes courage to release what is good in order to make space for something greater.As she steps into her new season, Dr. Phyllis leaves a powerful reminder: letting go of something good doesn’t mean failure—it means making room for something better. She urges us to keep growing, invest in our own joy, and trust that God is leading us toward something beautiful.If you’re navigating a season of transition, this episode will meet you right where you are—reminding you that you’re not alone.Quotes from Today’s Episode:"Transitions can feel scary, but they're also sacred.""Aligning with Purpose: Owning my yes, you owning your yes isn't a one time decision.
