Summary

We're continuing on our podcast series about running our race with a conversation with Bob Goff all about staying the course of what God has called us to without distractions. Bob is known for balloons, life-changing books, and publicly sharing his phone number. In this conversation, Jess and Bob talk about the latter two and what exactly living undistracted means in regard to our mission.

If you ever wonder:

How to live undistracted as a hardworking, multitasking woman of mission
What living undistracted may cost us
How comparison distracts us
What are some practical strategies for living undistracted
…then this episode is for you.

We pray this episode (and the rest of this series) encourages you to keep going in whatever God has called you to. You were placed right where you’re at, running the race you’re in, on purpose. God is mighty in you and your mission.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Go and Tell Gals podcast. I'm your host, Jess Connelly. I'm an author, a Bible teacher, a coach, and I'm obsessed with helping women take their place in the
0:22.5	kingdom and use their God-given gifts. I go and tell gals we equip and encourage women with different
0:29.9	tools like our Map to More Guide, our group coaching program, Go teams, and even by training
0:35.8	other women as coaches through our licensing program.
0:39.4	Whether you're a college student, a stay-at-home mom, a small business owner, an astronaut,

1:28.8	thankful for your work. I think this might be the most important book for this time. So we are so
1:34.5	grateful for you. Yeah, I'll say this is a really distracting time. I didn't see all the things
1:41.1	that would happen in life, but certainly a lot of life is happening for everybody.
1:45.9	And so to enter into it with a little less distraction, it would remind us about who we are.
1:53.5	And then how can we actually get something done when there's like everything's going on around us?
1:58.6	Just take a moment and say, what's going on inside of me?
