This week, we’re talking to the woman over 40 who’s in a season of transition—whether it’s empty nesting, career changes, divorce recovery, or simply feeling stuck. Life may not look like what you imagined, but that doesn’t mean it’s too late to grow, heal, or rediscover your purpose.

Through personal stories, scripture, and quiet encouragement, we reflect on how consistent prayer—no matter how imperfect—can gently shift everything over time. God is still writing your story, and He hasn’t forgotten you.

In this episode, we cover:


What prayer looks like in real, everyday life


How to trust God in the “in-between”


Encouragement for starting fresh at any age

✨ Your journey isn't over. It’s just unfolding.
