S9E4: Purpose Over Paychecks

Family dynamics aren’t always easy — especially as we grow, change, and watch the people we love do the same. From shifting roles with parents, to navigating boundaries, to facing the reality of aging loved ones, change in family can be both beautiful and heartbreaking.

Here’s what we unpack in this episode: 🔑 How life milestones (moving, marriage, career shifts) trigger new family dynamics 🔑 Why vulnerability, boundaries, and grace matter in family relationships 🔑 Encouragement for loving well, honoring our elders, and surrendering fear to God 🎯 Whether you are navigating highs or lows with your loved ones — this conversation is for you.
