Have you ever had a moment where God showed up in the most unexpected, tiny detail—and it changed everything? In this heartfelt episode of The Journey to Becoming, I’m sharing a very personal story of how God met me during a week of emotional highs and lows. It all started with another podcast about the power of having a designated prayer space, and what happened next reminded me just how intimately God sees and cares for every part of our lives.

Through a simple gift—a chair—I felt a divine invitation to deepen my time with the Lord and create space for breakthrough prayer. This episode is about so much more than furniture; it’s about recognizing the voice of God in the small things, growing in intimacy with Him, and learning to keep our eyes open for His presence in every corner of our lives.

If you’ve ever wondered whether God is really paying attention to the little things, this episode is for you. Let it encourage you to believe again that nothing goes unnoticed by our loving Father.

👉 Press play to be reminded that He sees you, He speaks, and He still provides—often in the most unexpected ways.

In this powerful and deeply honest episode, I’m joined by Callie Gualy—faith-filled Pilates instructor and founder of Sunshine Pilates. We dive into a much-needed conversation about body image, mindset, and what true freedom in Christ looks like when we renounce the things that aren’t from God.

Callie shares her personal journey of walking away from new age influences, finding her rhythm in motherhood, and learning to honor the body God gave her—not just for how it looks, but for how strong it is. Together, we talk about the often unspoken pressure on women to stay small, quiet, or ashamed—when God has actually called us to live boldly and walk in truth.

This episode is an invitation to silence fear, doubt, and failure—and to start walking in the confidence and freedom that only Jesus gives. Whether you’re struggling with body shame, feeling stuck spiritually, or needing a reminder that obedience opens doors, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

👉 Listen now and be encouraged to step into the strength, peace, and purpose God has for you.

We know firsthand how tempting it can be to avoid difficult conversations, especially when emotions run high or it feels safer to stay silent.
