”God, I have no idea what I’m doing” but, of course, there is always an uncertainty when doing something you have never done before.
This is my current thought and has been a recurring one these past few weeks. However, I can’t shake this feeling. This feeling of want. I want to encourage women. I want to make a difference. I want to make the ugly things we don’t talk about maybe not so ugly anymore.
Somehow, God has given me every single tool that I could possibly need to make it happen.
I was overwhelmed when one of my best friends walked knocked on my door this week. Puddles of emotion fell out of me. I was overwhelmed with love and a slight bit of anxiety. When he started to set up all of his podcast equipment, I wanted to crawl under our table, or possibly make a Target run hoping to get lost in the candle section. But I stayed around, thinking to myself “Welp, there is no getting out of this now, Sara! What are you going to do?’ I didn’t know…
After a few cups of coffee and a shot of courage, I slid the headphones onto my head. I actually loved the way it felt and how I sounded in the microphone. I wanted to sit under there all day. I was comfortable and at peace.
Then came the hard part… he sat down beside me, got ready and hit the BIG RED RECORD button. I froze and then I prayed. I knew that since God had truly laid this passion on my heart, then He would give me the words to speak and the courage it would take. So He did.
We knocked out our first 2 podcasts and all of the things that go with it, like choosing music, writing script, etc. Which brings us here to this point, on the edge of what comes next.
No matter how big a dream it is, it has to begin with the first step.
I would say, “mission accomplished.” I am excited to share stories of so many women with you. Thank you for joining me on the journey of celebration and victory.
