In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Joy Shaw for a powerful and heart-opening conversation about calling, courage, and trusting the path God lays in front of you. Joy shares her incredible journey of walking away from what was familiar, stepping into the unknown, and learning to follow divine direction even when it didn’t make logical sense.

This episode is an invitation to trust that you are being guided, supported, and prepared for exactly what you’re meant to do.

QUOTABLES:

“ I used to have this victim narrative around being around feeling taken advantage of. But there was a victimhood to that because if I believed that I was being taken advantage of, I could then be resentful to be taken advantage of, which would then just perpetuate the narrative of, well, Julie just has to do it herself. No one's gonna show up for her. She's just gotta do it. Which would then keep me in the driver's seat and in control, which would continue to perpetuate that narrative.” - Julie Solomon

“ Our minds are wired for survival, and if you have trauma, they're doubly wired for survival, right? Because you had to make it through a really unsafe environment that you were growing up in, or some event that happened that you had to survive. And so your mind is almost more programmed to keep you alive and to be hypervigilant. I work with a lot of people with PTSD and so we're deprogramming a lot of that and, and we're having to build safety and trust with it.

And the other thing that we have to do is we have to befriend this part of us.” - Joy Shaw
