Building something meaningful is hard — and nobody says that enough.

In this episode, I get honest about the guilt, doubt, and loneliness that comes with being a woman who builds. I share what I've been carrying while planning our 4th annual retreat, why Moses is the ultimate reluctant leader, and what I actually do when the emotional weight of responsibility tries to talk me out of my purpose.

We talk about:
• Why the people who started with you may not finish with you
• The "groaning in the spirit" that has no words
• How feelings and body sensations talk you out of purpose
• What my mom taught me about getting away
• What you're willing to put down so you can pick yourself up
• Trusting the unknown — including the time I missed my flight to my own retreat

If you've ever whispered "God, take this from me" — this one is for you, sis.
