## About This Episode

In this episode of Perspectives Into Practice, I sit down with my friend Heather for an honest conversation about what it looks like to trust God in the middle of life's uncertain seasons. Heather shares her journey of stepping away from a 25-year career, launching something new, navigating the transition of a child leaving for college, and walking through the recent loss of her father.

Together, we talk about the tension between faith and doubt, learning to surrender control, and trusting God one step at a time when the future feels unclear. Heather shares powerful stories of God's faithfulness, the simple rhythms that help her stay grounded, and the reminders God has given her along the way that He is still present, still working, and still leading.

If you've ever felt stuck in the messy middle, waiting for direction, grieving a loss, or wondering how to trust God when you can't see the whole path ahead, this conversation will encourage your heart. You'll be reminded that God rarely gives us the entire roadmap. Instead, He invites us to walk with Him one faithful step at a time.

Key topics from this episode include:  
• Trusting God during major life transitions  
• Letting go of control and surrendering the outcome  
• Navigating grief with faith and hope  
• Recognizing God's presence in everyday moments  
• Building practical rhythms that strengthen your faith  
• Finding peace in seasons of uncertainty

If this episode encouraged you, I'd love to invite you to share your story on the podcast. Some of the most powerful conversations come from ordinary women experiencing God's faithfulness in everyday life.

And if you're longing for rest, renewal, and deeper connection with God, join me for the Wholeness in the Wilderness Retreat. Learn more about the retreat and how to become a guest on the podcast at PerspectivesIntoPractice.com.
