My entire life I’ve felt awkward, yet brave and kind. This is me….and yet for most of my life I’ve felt less-than because I’m a rare breed. Brave and kind usually accompany confidence, not awkwardness, don’t they? I am the one you’ll find sometimes in the middle of the fun, but often hanging out on the fringe, quietly observing and perceiving what is real and what is just for show. I am not a wallflower but I often don’t fit into the inner circle. It has taken me a lifetime to recognize the gifting in that. I now embrace the way I was created, rather than striving to be “otherwise”. Is that you too?? If so, I’d love to hear a little more about your journey of struggle with this. One of the ways God keeps me centered, grounded & balanced in my true identity and the many roles I play in life, is by our trail talks….hiking it out in His creation, and also in serving others. In what ways do you find your grounding?
It’s the final episode of our Summer Sister Series, and we finish strong! We talk about growing up in a house where the pressure to be cool was crushing and lonely, and how we’re working really hard to let our awkward shine with our own kids.
And we finally reach the moment Ashley and Barrett have been waiting for: the big reveal of their favorite songs. Yes, there’s singing. Sorry, not sorry. https://spoti.fi/2Wv7HoV
