Summary

In honor of Christi's birthday, Josh talks to her about what this milestone means and how she's processing the feeling of entering a new decade of life. Christi shares valuable lessons she's learned over the last several years, what she plans on leaving behind, and what she wants to bring with her into her 40's.

Here are some takeaways:

Christi's practice of learning to release a high achieving mindset and just let herself "be"
How to discern if you're living in your true authentic self, or from your false self
How refreshing it is for everyone around you, when you can be real and let go of what others think of you, or what you think others think of you.
The upside down kingdom of God, and how He makes significant what the world finds unpopular
