Sometimes, it is feedback—a check-engine light letting us know that something in our lives deserves our attention.We discuss the three forms of friction that can signal misalignment:• Dissonance: the internal conflict that tells you something is off • Dissension: the relational tension that develops around you • Discontentment: the quiet dissatisfaction that causes you to settle for less than the life you know you were created to live LaQuonne also walks us through his practical four-part framework for responding to misalignment:NOTICE what is trying to get your attention. NAME the specific source of the friction. NEGOTIATE the boundaries, conversations, and adjustments that are needed. NURTURE the habits and rhythms that will help you maintain alignment.We also talk about burnout, people-pleasing, boundaries, coaching, personal development, purpose, faith, and what to do when helping everyone else begins to hurt you.This conversation will encourage you to stop simply managing the symptoms and begin paying attention to what the friction in your life may be trying to teach you.Because alignment begins with awareness—and when your internal and external realities begin pointing in the same direction, sustainable advancement becomes possible.ABOUT LAQUONNE HOLDENLaQuonne Holden is an Associate Pastor at Change Church who provides pastoral support to Dr. Dharius Daniels.
