127 || Because It Will Never Be the Perfect Time to Start || Haley Williams

Haley Williams has a dream to engage women in meaningful conversations by sharing stories that point to a bigger story and testify to the hope we have in Jesus. She does this, in part, through her podcast called Kindled about work, motherhood and the grace we need for both.

IF YOU HAVE EVER STRUGGLED TO GET STARTED, THIS WAS THE EPISODE FOR YOU.

To all the doers and dreamers, Haley offers the important reminder God gave her that “I am not my work.” This episode is a real and honest look at how we go about building our God-shaped dream and what to do when you aren’t sure how to begin. Haley talks about starting before you feel ready (and why it’s a good idea to just take the leap).

You’ll discover the value of trusting God with the outcomes, understanding your need for grace, finding your approval in Him alone, and allowing Jesus to change you from the inside out as you pursue your dream.

Hear why your dream has less to do with your skills, abilities, and desires and more to do with your willingness to be transformed in the process of pursuing it.  

Haley also shares about investing time, money and energy into building a course only to get a “not yet” response from God about moving forward. Her vulnerability will draw you in and – I hope – help you remember that you’re not alone when things don’t go exactly as you planned.

Despite the difficulty she’s faced, Haley offers and holds fast to the advice to “start before you’re ready” because you never know what God will do with your obedience.
