    Are you ready to uncover the secret weapon for chasing your God-shaped dream?

    If the obstacles between you and your dream feel overwhelming, it might be time for a game-changer: Community!

    In this solo episode, I dive into exactly why I believe community is essential for tackling the hurdles and confidently moving forward with your God-shaped dream. Whether your dream involves writing, speaking, leading, teaching, starting a business, or building a ministry, this episode is packed with inspiration and actionable tips just for you.

    From tackling obstacles like time and discipline to gaining clarity and momentum, community is the key. When you’re surrounded by other Jesus-loving women who also have a big dream, everyone wins because we are stronger together than we are on our own.

    I also introduce you to our supportive Devoted Dreamers community and tell you how to connect this month with like-minded women who have a similar heart and are pursuing God-shaped dreams just like you.

    Pop in your earbuds to learn all about:

    ⚡ The three obstacles that community helps eliminate,

    💫 What the Bible says about strength in numbers, and

    🎁 How to find the like-minded community you seek.

    If you’ve ever felt the nudge to create or build something new but find yourself overwhelmed by the enormity of the dream, you’re in the right place.

    Get ready to step outside your comfort zone, face those fears, and say “yes” to the big dreams God has placed on your heart. This episode is packed with encouragement and practical insights to help you on your journey. Let’s get started!

  • 307 || How to Start Listening to the Whispers of God || Kathy Izard
    Jun 5 2024

    Have you ever felt a God nudge?

    Whether you call it a nudge, a whisper, or a prompting, I bet you’ve had at least one. Maybe it was super subtle. Maybe you didn’t understand it in the moment. Or maybe it’s like you were knocked over the head with a two-by-four and you cannot go on ignoring it any longer.

    In many cases, the whisper is beyond anything you ever imagined for your life, and for my guest, Kathy Izard, it came loud and clear and completely unexpected. Her story began in the heart of a soup kitchen where a surprising encounter sparked a journey that would require her to surrender in ways she never imagined.

    As you listen, pay close attention to what you can learn from her story, like:

    💡How to know if you have a God whisper,
    ✨ Why your dream probably doesn’t come with a roadmap (and how to take steps anyway),
    ❤️ What it looks like to surrender to a dream you didn’t know you wanted and how God directs your steps when you do.

    This inspiring podcast episode is for any Christian woman in search of encouragement about how to use your skills, talents, and life experience for the big dreams God has planted in your heart.
