Summary
What does it look like to slow down and walk with a God who isn’t worried — even when life feels overwhelming?
In this episode, I sit down with author and speaker Megan Fate Marshman for an honest conversation about grief, drive, faith, and learning to let go of self-reliance. Megan shares how loss reshaped her understanding of trust, why autonomy can quietly replace intimacy with God, and how slowing down isn’t weakness — it’s wisdom.
This episode is for anyone who feels tired of trying harder and is ready to learn what it means to walk with God instead.

| 0:00.0 | Hi there. Thanks for listening to the Sister Circle podcast. |
| 0:07.1 | My name is Crystal Evanshurst, and I'm your host. Thanks for tuning in to another episode of the podcast that's designed to help you live your life well and to make it a life you love. Listen, you get to choose. |
| 0:26.1 | So y'all, there are people. I know I always want you to know about all of my people and why each one of them is special, but they are all special. |
| 0:40.4 | But here's the thing. |
| 0:42.5 | If I could just be frank and direct, there are lots of people that I know who have lots of words and they write those words or they share them on their blog. |
| 0:51.7 | They share them on their podcast. |
| 0:53.4 | They share them when they teach when they speak them on their podcast. They share them when they |
| 0:54.4 | teach when they speak. But there are a handful, like I could count them on one hand of people |
| 1:01.7 | that when I have had the opportunity to witness them in a scenario where they have a mic |

| 1:29.4 | same fire that's in the circle. Praying about the movement and the change that happens in the room |
| 1:34.0 | is the exact same level of fire that shows up on the pulpit, on the stage, or behind the mic. |
| 1:41.0 | And she has had one heck of a life. Many of us have things in our lives that come that |
| 1:47.2 | we don't expect. But when you take someone who has such force, power, and presence, and then you |
| 1:55.8 | take them through the depths of a painful, unexpected experience, and it just refines and enhances that experience of them. |
| 2:08.8 | It is one to be beheld. So I am welcoming back to the podcast, Ms. Megan Fait Marshman. |
| 2:14.8 | Thanks for joining me. |
