In episode 1, we're talking about making progress on goals related to your purpose. What do you do when you've been praying or planning for something but never seem to get any traction? We'll talk about how to identify when you are stuck or hiding from your purpose and what to do to get your life moving in the right direction again. I'm pretty passionate about this one and it definitely comes through. Thanks for listening & subscribe to hear the next episode!
