Summary
Listennnn… welcome to 2026, sis. We are starting this year a little different, on purpose. No performing, no pretending, no "I'm fine" faith. Just real. In this episode, Sarah opens up about what it actually means to go rogue. Not rebellion for attention, but breaking up with the patterns, the fears, and the "truths" you picked up in the air that are keeping you stuck.
We're talking identity, confidence, and the sneaky way old labels try to follow you into a new season. If you've ever been quicker to believe the negative than receive the good, if one comment can disconnect you from feeling loved by God, or if you can tell your heart has gotten a little guarded… pull up. We're getting in Ezekiel 36:26 and asking God for the kind of renewal that doesn't just sound good, but changes you from the inside out.
By the end, you'll be ready to write your own Go Rogue statement, challenge what fear has been "authorized" to say over you, and start breathing fresh again.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to 2026. I am so grateful to be starting this year with you. And if you are listening to this on audio, |
| 0:12.9 | then you may not see that we are going rogue in every sense of the word this year. Now, fret, not my pet. I am going to explain |
| 0:24.0 | what it means to go rogue, but I'm also hoping to show in physical representation a little bit |
| 0:32.0 | of what it means to go rogue because I got my natural hair out and not a drop, not a concealer, not a drop of makeup on. |
| 0:40.6 | I am going rogue. |
| 0:41.8 | Usually my hair is braided down and underneath the wig, but I just felt like there was |
| 0:45.6 | something to be said about questioning the areas of my life, not just spiritually, |
| 0:52.3 | emotionally and mentally, but even in my physical appearance, where I have |
| 0:56.8 | an opportunity to go rogue, to break out of my rules, to break out of my fears and insecurities, |
| 1:03.8 | and to accept radical acceptance and love, and to own it. And so I am looking forward to this year of us going rogue, |
| 1:14.6 | doing the radical, having confidence, fighting the good fight of faith, but also dissecting what |
| 1:21.0 | stands in the way of us doing that. Before we kick off this year with some amazing conversations with individuals whom I think you will enjoy getting to know or getting to know better because you may already be aware of them, I really wanted to set a foundation for what it means to go rogue. |
| 1:39.2 | If this is your first time listening to the podcast, then you may not know. |
| 1:42.4 | I've kind of been debating with the audience |
| 1:44.3 | for the last couple of months about whether or not go rogue should be our theme. Part of the reason |
| 1:51.2 | why is because when you do a quick little Google search, words like rebellion, breaking the rules, |
| 1:57.4 | breaking authority come up. And we definitely don't want to do anything that |
| 2:02.2 | encourages negative behavior, but I couldn't shake it. I couldn't shake this reality that there |
| 2:08.4 | are many norms that we have accepted, that there are many philosophies and practices, that |
| 2:14.6 | we have accepted, that the only way that we can fully step into what God has for us |
| 2:20.1 | is if we are willing to go rogue from those patterns, those systems, those philosophies. |
| 2:26.5 | And so this is our year to examine what we have accepted as a norm and to rebel against it, to take back the authority that God |
