How Do You Figure Out What You Really Want in Life?

from Guided: Hearing God's Voice in the Life You Actually Have · host Brenda Bertrand

"I don't even know what I want anymore." So many women whisper this to me-quietly, apologetically, like it's a confession. But hear me: not knowing what you want is not a failure.

This is not confusion. This is conditioning. And your desire is not gone. It's buried. Waiting. Whole. Holy. For any woman who's lost touch with what she wants and is ready to excavate what's been waiting underneath. The rubble is coming off.Subscribe free to my newsletter: ⁠⁠http://eepurl.com/hiV8TH⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.brendabertrand.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠
