Have you ever felt like something was off, but you couldn't quite put your finger on it?

That's where I found myself recently.

A quick note: Several of you have reached out to say the unedited episodes feel like we're just sitting down having coffee together. So that's exactly what this is. Raw, real, and unscripted.

After months of feeling like something was out of alignment, I asked God to show me what it was. I expected Him to point to my schedule, my business, or one of the many other things on my plate.

Instead, He pointed me toward my marriage.

In this honest and vulnerable episode, I'm sharing what happened when God answered that prayer, the unexpected lessons He revealed, and why the areas we often overlook can become the very places He wants to bring healing, growth, and alignment.

While much of this conversation centers around marriage, the bigger invitation is for all of us to ask:

Is there an area of my life that God may be calling me to pay attention to?

You'll hear how God used a canceled hair appointment, a leadership event, a timely conversation with a true friend, and even a marriage coach to reveal some blind spots I couldn't see on my own.

Because sometimes the area God wants to work on isn't the area we think needs fixing.

• How God revealed an area of my life that was out of alignment
• The unexpected connection between a canceled hair appointment and a prayer I'd been praying
• The question that completely shifted my perspective
• Why I decided to work with a marriage coach
• Small changes that are already making a big difference
• The danger of focusing on what others aren't doing instead of examining our own hearts
• How to recognize areas God may be asking you to address
• Why God doesn't call us to settle for mediocrity in any area of our lives

• Is there an area of your life that feels out of alignment right now?
• Have you been asking God to change someone else when He may be inviting you to look inward first?
• What strengths and blessings have you overlooked because you've been focused on what's missing?
• What is one small step of obedience God may be asking you to take today?
