Summary

We're jumping back into the series Embracing the Good, Hard Life. If you missed last week, make sure you go back and listen. Havilah shared last week about embracing the good.

Today, she's diving into confronting the hard. Havilah shares about why it's okay when things are hard and how God allows hard things to happen so we can find our strength in Him. Hardships are a pathway to growth and it's important we face them. Biologically, the only way a muscle can grow is to be torn apart first. The same happens with us. Let's talk about this today.

Havilah's Author School is BACK! We've got some exciting news - for the 3rd time, Havilah will be hosting another class of Authors! In this 16-week mentorship program, she will help you clarify your message and plan your book from beginning to end.

0:00.0	Hi, you guys. This is Havela Cuttington and this is the Havela podcast. I'm so excited
0:09.0	that you're here today. We are, like, we're jumping back into this whole series of The
0:14.6	Good Heart. The Good Heart is really something that I kind of found myself saying this last
0:20.1	season of like, wow, it's so good and so hard, which is kind of similar to like being
0:26.2	a parent of toddlers, high schoolers, you know, all the things. And so the last couple
0:32.4	of weeks we've talked about, like, what is The Good Heart? Last week we talked about, like,
0:38.0	embracing the good. And this week we're going to talk about the bad. So if you're just joining,
0:43.2	like, and you're on this podcast, go grab a cup of coffee, you're walking shoes, whatever
0:47.2	it is, we are going to jump into confronting the hard. All right, here we go. So this week
0:58.1	was the first week of school, right? Actually, it's been a week, but about a week. And we had
1:03.8	set out to put our kids in a different school. And our kids have been in the same school
1:08.8	for since grade school, all four boys go to the same school. And that's like really normal.
1:13.8	We love it. It was really a godsend because as I was traveling and on the road, I could take
1:18.4	my boys with me because the school was like really understanding about what it would be like to take
1:24.2	the boys. And so it worked out well. But the older boys have been talking about going to a different
1:29.4	school. And I felt the Holy Spirit just speak to me about exploring that, like not being afraid
1:35.3	to explore them going to a different school. It was hard, but I was like, okay, we can do this.
1:41.0	So I started the journey of exploring and applying and figuring all that stuff out fast forward.
1:48.0	We did not get into the school that we wanted to get in, which was a charter school. And we had
1:53.2	to send our boys back to the school that they didn't want to go to. And I was feeling a lot of
1:59.7	mom guilt. Not guilt like, oh, my kids life is terrible. It's not. But I was feeling like this.
2:06.0	Oh, I really wanted them to get this moment. I wanted them to win. And I couldn't do it for them.
