Have you ever looked back and felt like too much of your life was spent in the wrong places, with the wrong priorities, or in seasons that didn’t seem to move you forward?

In this episode, Tom Clairmont and Paul Berard talk about regret, lost time, painful delays, and how God can still use the years that feel wasted to build wisdom, purpose, and a stronger future.

What You’ll Hear

• Why regret can distort the way you see your past
• How God can use seasons that looked unproductive
• Why comparison can make you feel further behind than you really are
• The difference between wasted time and preparation time
• Biblical examples from Jacob, Moses, Caleb, and the Israelites
• How God can restore finances, relationships, direction, and purpose
• Why the better question is not “How much time did I lose?” but “What can I do with the time I have now?”

Why You Should Listen

If you’ve been carrying regret over past decisions, lost years, missed opportunities, or seasons where life didn’t go the way you hoped, this conversation will help you see your story differently. Tom and Paul offer honest life experience, biblical perspective, and practical encouragement for trusting God with the time you still have.

Why This Episode Matters

Many people quietly live with the fear that they’ve waited too long, made too many mistakes, or missed their chance to live with purpose. This episode matters because it reminds listeners that God can redeem what feels lost, reshape how they see the past, and help them move forward with wisdom instead of regret.
