Summary

Are you waiting for something? Have you wondered if your dreams will ever come to pass? Waiting seasons can feel long and tedious but we're offering a fresh take in this episode. In this conversation, I'm talking with therapist and author, Barb Hill about: · Transformation that takes place in the wait · Validating our experiences, past and present · How we can become active participants in our lives Barb is a friend and we've walked through waiting seasons together; she's got a lot of insight on this topic and has beautifully unpacked it in this podcast. We discuss how to look at waiting in a new way, how waiting can positively impact our lives and the power of being present. It's also important to validate the difficulty that comes with waiting and the grief of not yet being completely fulfilled. Barb also shares practical ways to embrace the wait, whether that's through being in community or moving away from assumptions. As you wait for that new job, physical healing, marriage or family reconciliation, my hope is that you'll begin to see waiting in a new way. Don't forget to tag us @biancaolthoff and @barbs_hill on social media, we'd love to find out what you've learned and believe with you in your wait.
