Episode 59: “This Isn’t the Way” | Why We Resist the Path That’s Actually Right (Trust, Leadership & Life in the Valley)

from Summit After the Storm · host Bart Wilbanks

“Bart… this isn’t the way.”That’s what my son told me as we biked to school.We took a different route that morning…and the more we rode, the more unsure he became.It didn’t look familiar.It didn’t feel right.It didn’t match what he expected.And he kept saying it…“This isn’t the way.”Until one turn later…he recognized where we were.And said,“You’re right… this is the way.”That moment stuck with me.Because it’s exactly what we do in life.This episode is about what happens when:The path doesn’t look familiarThe direction doesn’t make senseThe outcome isn’t clear yetAnd everything in you wants to push backBecause we don’t struggle trusting the destination…We struggle trusting the route.In this episode, I break down:Why we resist paths that don’t match our expectationsThe leadership challenge of trusting without clarityHow this shows up in business, family, and decision-makingWhat it means to trust… before you recognize where you areBecause sometimes…You don’t understand the path at the beginning.Or even in the middle.Only when you get close enough…to finally see it.#SummitAfterTheStorm#KeepClimbing#PolePole#Leadership#LeadershipDevelopment#TrustTheProcess#LifeInTheValley#FaithAndLeadership#ChristianLeadership#MentalToughness#GrowthMindset#Resilience#DoHardThings#StayTheCourse#ConsistencyWins#MindsetShift#PersonalGrowth#PurposeDriven#LeadByExample
