In this episode, Bonnie shares how she’s navigating her current season of change — and what it looks like to move forward with peace and quiet confidence when life feels uncertain.

You’ll also explore the science about how faith reshapes what feels impossible, and why hearing stories of transformation can improve your wellness.

What do you do when life is changing… and you don’t yet know what’s next?

In seasons of transition, it’s easy to feel unsettled or uncertain. But what if you could move forward with peace and quiet confidence — even before everything becomes clear?

In this episode, Bonnie shares the moments she got a jarring text that unsettled her, that helped her understanding of what it means to live forward — not backward — and how that perspective can reshape the way we experience change.

You’ll also learn a simple morning soul care practice to anchor your identity in God — so you can begin each day grounded amidst the tumble of change.

If you’re in a season of change, this episode will help you move forward with peace and trust the next chapter God is writing.

Key Takeaways
 How to move forward with peace in seasons of change
 Why identity shifts are a natural part of new chapters
 How your inner narrative shapes your wellbeing 
 How curiosity and small enjoyable actions can interrupt stress loops
 A simple morning practice to ground your day


Breath Prayer
Inhale: Do not dwell on the past… 
Exhale: See, I am doing a new thing…

Scripture

“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!” — Isaiah 43:18–19

Why the Story You’re Telling Yourself Matters to Your Wellbeing #204

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/5e27a451-e6e6-4c51-aa03-a7370003783c/clips/bc6428b0-4946-4e07-82ea-b415018550d1/transcript

Is there something in your life right now that you’re waiting on? 

And while you’re waiting, your mind keeps circling the same questions: When will this get better? When will this resolve? How long will this take?

When problems don’t have immediate solutions, our brains tend to reopen them again and again — creating worry loops that make it hard to rest.

In this episode, Bonnie shares a personal story about quieting the mental loop of waiting. You'll learn how asking a different question can transform a season of waiting if stress into something we can live well.

If you’ve been stuck in a cycle of worry while waiting for something to change, this episode will help you discover how to return to rest and live well in the meantime.



Key Takeaways

Why unresolved situations naturally trigger worry loops in the brain

How asking a better question can quiet anxiety while you wait

What the Zeigarnik Effect reveals about why unfinished problems stick in our minds

How curiosity and small enjoyable actions can interrupt stress loops

Why learning to “wait well” can bring peace even before the situation resolves


Breath Prayer
Inhale: Return to your rest, my soul…
Exhale: The Lord has been good to you…

Scripture

“Return to your rest, my soul,
for the Lord has been good to you.”
— Psalm 116:7

Is there something in your life right now that you&rsquo;re waiting on?&nbsp;
And while you&rsquo;re waiting, your mind keeps circling the same questions: When will this get better? When will this resolve? How long will this take? When problems don&rsquo;t have immediate solutions, our brains tend to reopen them again and again &mdash; creating worry loops that make it hard to rest. In this episode, Bonnie shares a personal story about quieting the mental loop of waiting. You'll learn how asking a different question can transform a season of waiting if stress into something we can live well. If you&rsquo;ve been stuck in a cycle of worry while waiting for something to change, this episode will help you discover how to return to rest and live well in the meantime. 
Key Takeaways
Why unresolved situations naturally trigger worry loops in the brain
How asking a better question can quiet anxiety while you wait
What the Zeigarnik Effect reveals about why unfinished problems stick in our minds
How curiosity and small enjoyable actions can interrupt stress loops
Why learning to &ldquo;wait well&rdquo; can bring peace even before the situation resolves
 Breath Prayer Inhale: Return to your rest, my soul&hellip; Exhale: The Lord has been good to you&hellip; Scripture
&ldquo;Return to your rest, my soul, for the Lord has been good to you.&rdquo; &mdash; Psalm 116:7
