Have you ever felt like life isn’t falling apart… but it doesn’t feel comfortable anymore either?

In this episode of Glory & Grit, Stephanie shares what it’s like to walk through a stretching season—when you’re being asked to step into something you don’t feel ready for.

From the pressure of new responsibility to the tension of doing something unfamiliar, this episode explores how growth often feels uncomfortable in the moment.

It might mean you’re being prepared.
