What Is My Life Trying to Tell Me Right Now?

Fall has a way of filling up before we even realize what's happening. The calendar changes. School starts. Routines shift. Work gets busy. And our natural response can be to start planning, adding, organizing, and figuring out how we're going to get everything done. But what if, before we add anything, we simply pay attention? In this episode, I'm inviting you to spend 30 minutes asking yourself four questions about your life right now. Where am I zapped? What's draining me? What leaves me feeling depleted? And is there something I can eliminate or adjust before it completely exhausts me? Where am I thriving? What's actually going really well? Where do I feel strong, connected, joyful, healthy, or peaceful—and how can I protect that? Where am I avoiding something? What conversation, appointment, task, boundary, financial decision, or responsibility keeps hanging over me because I haven't dealt with it? Where do I feel God's peace? Where do I feel settled? What has God been making clearer? Is there something I've released that brought peace instead of regret? You don't have to make your answers profound. Just write down what's true. Then look at your answers and ask: What needs to be eliminated? What needs to be protected? What needs to be adjusted? In This Episode, We Cover: Why you don't necessarily need another fall plan How exhaustion can give you useful information Why I'm reevaluating how much content I'm creating Why it's important to notice what's thriving—not just what's wrong The areas of my life I want to protect because they're working How avoidance can keep something feeling heavier than it needs to My own experience avoiding a decision around the Encourager website How God's peace can help give us direction What happened when I finally released an idea I had been holding onto How to use these four questions to finish the year intentionally Key Takeaway: You may not need to add something new to your life. You may need to pay attention to what your life is already telling you. Reflection Questions Ask yourself: Where am I zapped? Where am I thriving? Where am I avoiding something? Where do I feel God's peace? Then ask: What is my life trying to tell me right now? Or: What is God revealing to me right now? If these questions are bringing up something you know needs attention, I offer one-on-one coaching to help you work through what's happening right now and make intentional adjustments as you finish the year.
