About this episode

This episode explores the deeper reasons behind procrastination, linking it to personal fears and faith, using Jonah's story as a reference.

In this episode, I talk honestly about procrastination — not just as a time issue, but a heart issue. Whether it's fear of failure, fear of success, or needing everything to be perfect before we start… it’s deeper than just “laziness.” I also dive into Jonah’s story — how running from what God asks of us can look a lot like procrastination. If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or like you’re “waiting for the right time,” this conversation is for you. ✨ Real talk. No pressure. Just a space to reflect, reset, and take the next small step. I’m unpacking: What’s really behind procrastination Why “just be disciplined” isn’t the full answer Jonah, calling, and running the other way How faith can move us forward — without shame 🎧 Whether you're in high school or figuring out life in your 30s, this one’s for every woman who knows there’s more… but hasn’t started yet.
