About This Episode:

During times of crisis and hardship, it’s easy to doubt whether or not you have the fortitude to stick things out.

There is value in staying and being in hard things but there is also value in knowing when it’s time to leave. But how do we know the difference? And why is that we stay too long in the first place? Maybe you’ve been feeling like you’ve overstayed a job or a relationship or perhaps even hung on to an opportunity that you don’t feel aligned with anymore.

Today on the podcast, I’m going to share with you what I’ve been learned and continue to learn about staying power. Staying in hard things, in hard emotions, in hard relationships, and how to get the most out of those moments in life and also maybe when it’s time to let go and walk away.

WITH ANJULI PASCHALL

“We have strategies to avoid feelings, we can think our feelings, but we are not good at feeling our feelings, so the moment we have a feeling we’re going here in our minds - how do I get rid of it, what did I do, how can I fix it, how can I make it better.

About This Episode:

Are you experiencing a disconnect between your head and your heart? Are you suppressing what you truly feel in order to just make it through each and every day? You may be tempted to give up - but the ache will always be there. That’s why we need to stay where we resist being. Today on the podcast I'm chatting Anjuli Paschall who wrote the book Stay: Discovering Grace, Freedom, and Wholeness, Where You Never Imagined Looking.

Anjuli shares why we need to stay where we resist and how we can navigate feelings of belonging and loneliness. And if it’s possible for us to begin to re-imagine the future and what does it look like for us to hold space for ourselves and others.
