What if the reason you’ve felt stuck… confused… or afraid of “missing it”… isn’t because you failed God…

…but because you’ve been carrying old stories He never asked you to hold?

In this episode, we return to the porch for a tender, honest, and Spirit-led conversation about calling, purpose, healing, and freedom.

Stephanie shares her personal journey of wrestling with “finding” her calling, releasing fear and regret, and discovering that calling isn’t something we chase — it’s something we live.

Together, we explore how past wounds, regrets, and lies can quietly shape our present — and how Jesus lovingly invites us to release them and step into the story He is redeeming.

☕ This is a gentle yet powerful episode about choosing your life, trusting God’s timing, and learning to live fully in faith, fire, and freedom.

Why fear of “missing your calling” keeps so many believers stuck Stephanie’s story of music, loss, regret, and surrender What the Bible really teaches about calling and purpose How old stories and wounds shape present decisions Why the enemy targets identity and purpose How Paul’s story models freedom from shame and regret What it means to rewrite your story with truth Why gratitude helps renew and rewire the mind A guided “black box” prayer for releasing burdens to Jesus How to recognize God’s “breadcrumbs” in your past Why calling is lived one step at a time A powerful invitation to choose your life today How freedom becomes daily, not just emotional Why God wastes nothing in your story
