As we step into a new year, the pressure to plan, hustle, and reinvent ourselves can feel overwhelming. In today’s episode of What’s the Word?, we begin differently—with a pause.

Drawing from Proverbs 16:9, “In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps,” this reflection invites you to release urgency and return to alignment—with God, your body, and the life you’re building.

In this 10-minute solo episode, I walk through the WAVE System—a faith-led framework we’ve been practicing inside our women’s group—to help you check in before you push forward:

• Well-being
• Awareness
• Vision
• Energy
• This episode is for the woman who is tired of rushing, ready to listen more deeply, and open to becoming—not striving—this year.
  Scripture Referenced:
  📖 Proverbs 16:9 (NIV) — “In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps.”
  Reflection Questions from the Episode:
  • How is my body actually doing right now?
  • What patterns followed me into this new year?
  • If I trusted God more deeply, what would I release?
  • What restores my energy—and what drains it?
• Closing Invitation:
  What would it look like to move through this year more rooted than rushed?
  🎧 Listen in, breathe deep, and begin again—gently.

Led by Faith: Taking the Next Step Without Knowing the Whole Plan | What’s the Word Podcast

What does it really mean to live a life led by faith?

In this episode of What’s the Word, we explore what it looks like to trust God when you don’t have all the answers. Faith doesn’t require a full roadmap—just obedience to the next inspired step. Through scripture, reflection, and a personal story of starting a women’s collective after years of hesitation, this episode is a reminder that God is always leading, even when we feel unsure.

You’ll be encouraged to quiet the noise, listen for the whispers in your soul, and take daily inspired action—one step at a time.

✨ Includes scripture
✨ Faith-based encouragement
✨ Women in business + community
