Summary
Welcome to the Go + Tell Gals Podcast! This season on the podcast, we want to answer the questions you’re already asking. In this week’s episode, we are encouraging you with extra grace if you’re feeling the Spirit tugging at your heart: How do I start over? Our gal and GATG team member, Henslee, is providing wisdom and grace in seasons of pivoting and change.
We are always going to mess up and sin - that’s the truth of humanity, yet we cannot forget the grace that lives here too. Starting over doesn’t mean starting from scratch. There’s so much to learn about where we’ve been, so we can take empowered steps forward again.
No matter your season, we pray we can find joy and gladness in every single day that the Lord has made and remember that His mercies are new every single morning to start over.
He is mighty in you.
Don’t miss:
We want you to join us on March 4 for our Rally event, a one day coaching session for women who want to set goals, dream and strategize for your soul. We would love to have you with us in Charleston, so find out more details about this life-changing event and mark your calendars!

| 0:30.1 | encouraged and ready to run. We're so glad you're here. Let's go. |
| 0:39.3 | Hi friends. Welcome to the Go and Tell Gals podcast. It's Jess and Hens today. How you feeling? |
| 0:45.0 | I'm good. I'm good. I'm excited. Okay, Hens, I want to know how your new year is going so far. |
| 0:50.7 | How are you feeling? How are the goals? How are the things? Yes. I feel like the month of |
| 0:56.5 | January has already been about six months long. Yes. I feel like January 1st was a lifetime ago |
| 1:02.9 | and that maybe Christmas didn't happen. The memes are true. January is 27 months long. Yeah. |
| 1:08.2 | And I can't believe it's not over. It's not even close to over. |
| 1:11.5 | I know. |
| 1:11.6 | We still have a few days. |
| 1:13.6 | Okay. |
| 1:14.5 | So we've been talking a lot about goals in the new year. |
| 1:17.3 | We've been talking about how to get your heart right, how to make sure you're going in the right direction, how to go slow enough to not strive, how to rest along the way. Now we're talking about how to start over |

| 1:40.0 | personally? I will say I am struggling with some. It is a little bit of a struggle. I think everyone |
| 1:45.2 | always has the best intentions when you start the new year and you see the fresh calendar, |
| 1:49.0 | the fresh planner, or you're just, you know, you're excited and you're eager. And I, for one, |
| 1:55.2 | have a reputation of being a little too eager and taking on a little bit too much. |
