Practicing quiet, recognizing beauty

Thoughts on leaning in and not shrinking back

So, how do you feel right now?

I don’t know about you, but I’m very aware of how much I need to lean into God.

That’s partly an acknowledgement of the limitations I feel as I wear multiple hats (work, creativity, parenthood, plain ol’ life). It’s also a recognition that I’m stepping out of a complex and difficult season into new and exciting things.

How about you?

In this short episode I chat about practicing silence and share from two must-read books, one from Malcolm Muggeridge and the other Annie Dillard.

If you need a boost of encouragement or some companionship as you walk out a similar journey, take a listen.

And if you have a strategy on how to move to the depths from the shallows that you’d like to share, please hit the button below to leave a comment.
