I Knew It Was Coming - But It Still Broke Me

from Disciple Blueprint Podcast · host Disciple Blueprint

I Knew It Was Coming… But It Still Broke MeSometimes you can feel something coming long before it arrives.For two months, I walked into work every day carrying the quiet, growing sense that my job was slipping away. No announcement. No official word. Just that unmistakable tension that tells you something is about to change. And when you're already burned out — already running on empty — that kind of uncertainty doesn't just sit on you. It starts to crush you.And then it happened.In this episode, I share one of the most vulnerable moments of that season — losing my job, and what my best friend said to me afterward that I wasn't prepared to hear. It reframed everything. Because sometimes what feels like loss is actually rescue. And sometimes the breaking point isn't the end of the story — it's where God finally gets our full attention.We also spend time with Job — a man who lost everything without warning, without explanation, and without easy answers. What I find most comforting about his story isn't that everything worked out. It's that he didn't pretend it was okay. He grieved. He questioned. He wrestled out loud. But he never let go.If you're in a season where something feels like it's slipping, or you're still trying to make sense of something that already fell apart, this episode is for you.What we cover:What two months of anticipating job loss does to a person who's already burned outWhy breaking points often reveal what we've quietly been depending onWhat Job's story teaches us about holding on to God when nothing makes senseHow to recognize God's rescue even when it arrives looking like lossFree ResourceIf today's episode hit close to home, I want to make sure you have something practical to hold onto. I've put together a free guide on burnout — what it really is, what it costs us, and how to begin finding your way back. It's free, and I hope it meets you right where you are.👉 Download the Free Burnout GuideConnect with Disciple Blueprint🌐 Website: www.discipleblueprint.com📘 Facebook: @discipleblueprint▶️ YouTube: @discipleblueprint
