 What happened to the person you used to be—the one who set goals, dreamed big, and believed they were made for more? In this episode of Say Goodbye and Imagine, Rose Ann Forte explores Core Concept 10: Finding Purpose—the pivotal moment when we begin to replace destructive habits with meaningful pursuits. This isn't about giving something up—it's about stepping into who God created you to be. Drawing from Scripture and real-life reflection, Rose Ann shares how purpose gets lost when we’re numbing pain, and how we can reclaim it—one step at a time. Understanding Purpose Loss How substances and toxic behaviors cloud our sense of purpose and God-given giftsThe disconnection from who we were created to beMoving from goal-oriented confidence to feeling lost and frustrated The Lies We Believe Impact of unrealistic standards and comparison culturePressure to fit in rather than embrace our unique designHow pain and coping mechanisms (like drinking) deepen the disconnection from purpose Biblical Foundation Three key scriptures discussed: Jeremiah 29:11 - God's plans to prosper and give hopeEphesians 2:10 - Created for good works prepared in advanceRomans 12:2 - Transformed by the renewing of your mind This week, take time to reflect on the person you used to be and the dreams you've set aside. Ask yourself: "What did I use to love doing? What have I always wanted to try?" Whether it's picking up a musical instrument, exploring a career change through community college courses, or rediscovering hobbies like flower arranging, woodworking, or sports—start small but start somewhere. For parents, consider how you can be more present with your children and what lasting memories or values you want to instill in them. Remember, finding purpose isn't about grand gestures or immediate transformation; it's about following the instincts of who you were created to be and trusting that God will use these joy-filled pursuits in His kingdom. The key is to replace what you're removing with something that brings genuine fulfillment and aligns with your unique design. In the next episode, we'll dive into Core Concept 11: It's Addictive, where we'll explore the nature of addictive substances and behaviors and how understanding this reality can strengthen your resolve to stay free.
