286 | Following Christ Sometimes Means Walking Away: Faith, Discernment & Renewal with Nakia Edwards

I hope you are well! It is not uncommon for us to feel "off" or as if something just isn't right, as we go about our week.

Many times this feeling is not a sign of failure - but a signal that something in our lives is out of alignment.

In this week's Renewal Conversation with Dr. Nakia Edwards, Nurse Practitioner and Christian Content Creator, we talk about how she has learned to discern God’s direction, even when it meant making uncomfortable and unexpected choices.

She also opens up about the quiet signs of burnout so many high-achieving women miss - and the simple, powerful rhythms that can help bring us back into alignment.

It’s a gentle reminder that we don’t have to strive our way forward when really, all God is inviting us to do is - walk with Him.

In this conversation, we discuss:
☀️ An integrated approach to care - heart, mind, body and soul.
☀️ Discerning your spiritual gifts with the support of others.
☀️ Evaluating ambitions and goals based on their "fruit".
☀️ Signs of hidden burnout - like fatigue and brain fog.
☀️ And the importance of seeking God's kingdom - FIRST (Matthew 6:33).

And Nakia's go-to Bible verse is a powerful one that she relies on to stay in God's peaceful presence: "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." Matthew 6:33
