93 | Holy Nerves: Why Feeling Nervous and Excited Is a Sign of Growth

Are you feeling both nervous and excited about stepping into something new? That mix of emotions—what I like to call being “nercivited”—isn’t a sign of weakness. It’s actually a sign of growth. In this episode of Overwhelmed to Overcomer, we explore the power of eustress—the “good stress” that motivates us to grow, take courageous steps, and walk in God’s purpose for our lives. We’ll look at how anticipation (whether it’s starting a new job, planning a vacation, trying a new workout, or pursuing a new relationship) can stretch us in healthy ways. More importantly, we’ll dive into what Scripture says about stepping into these moments with faith. Through Joshua 1:9 and Joshua 3:5, we see God’s call to be strong and courageous, and His promise to do amazing things when we walk in courageous obedience. By the end of this episode, you’ll discover how to: Reframe “nervous energy” as a tool for spiritual and personal growth Step into new opportunities with courage, not fear Trust God’s presence as you prepare for His amazing work in your life If you’ve ever wondered how to turn your stress into strength, this conversation will encourage and equip you to lean into God’s stretching seasons with joy and confidence. 👉 Scripture References: Joshua 1:9, Joshua 3:5 ✨ Be ready to identify your own “nercivited” moments and see them as holy invitations to grow into all God has for you.
