Courtney unpacks how many of us mistake control for hope and why that leaves us discouraged. She reframes hope as an open-handed partnership with God that can hold mystery, wrestle like Jacob, and stay grounded in His promises even when outcomes shift.

This episode answers:

• What is the difference between wishing and biblical hope?
• How do I find the moment I stopped hoping and start again?
• Why does over-attachment to “the one” outcome drain my hope?
• How can I hold God’s promises while releasing my timelines?
• What does open-handed, wonder-filled hope look like day to day?

Courtney shares her thoughts on why August feels like an "in-between" month and uses that metaphor to discuss bigger life transitions. She reflects on her own experiences and those of her clients who struggle with change, especially single women afraid to fully enjoy life. Through it all, she encourages women to stay curious, pursue peace, and trust that God is writing a good story.

This episode answers:

• Why do life transitions feel so disorienting?
• Can I enjoy my single life and still hope for marriage?
• Is fear of “loving life too much” holding me back?
• What does it look like to pursue peace over fear?
• How do I take bold steps without knowing the full outcome?

• Your body, safety, and sense of identity matter.
• Practice helps ease fear, but preparation matters too.
• Focus on becoming the person who’s ready for the relationship you desire.
