Ever feel stuck in decision overload—second-guessing every choice, lying awake with racing thoughts, or wondering if you’ve already missed God’s plan for your life? You’re not alone, friend. In this episode of the Choose 2 Think Inspirational Podcast, we’re unpacking the affirmation “God will guide me.”

I’ll share some of my own stories of how God showed up in both the little things (like picture frames!) and the big transitions (like remarriage and buying a home). We’ll talk about why His guidance is steady, why it comes step by step (not all at once), and how it brings peace right here in the present moment.

And because you know I love weaving faith with brain science, I’ll explain what’s happening in your brain when anxious thought-loops take over—and how truth and trust in God can literally rewire your neural pathways.

By the end, you’ll feel encouraged to take that next baby step, breathe a little deeper, and rest in God’s steady hand.

✨ What you’ll take away:

  • God’s guidance isn’t random—it’s steady and personal.

  • Neuroscience shows your brain can rewire toward peace.

  • Replacing anxious thoughts with truth strengthens your mind.

  • You don’t need the whole map—just the next step.

  • Peace is available right here, right now.
