Summary

Today- I'm handing my mic over! Don't worry- it's in the best hands because my dear friend and my personal board of directors Jo Saxton is taking over the show today to interview ME about Standing Strong. She didn't pull any punches. I may have cried. And we totally "went there" on all the topics. I share my story of overcoming bankruptcy and homelessness, starting a business in a McDonald's play place with a broken keyboard while nursing a baby, and why I almost sold my wedding ring. We also talk about positive toxicity, curated vulnerability, and how to tell if a dream is really from God. If you are curious about my new book and the heart behind Standing Strong- this is a conversation you don't want to miss. Favorite quotes: 1. Something happens when we go through hard times and when we go through difficulties. Sometimes we will lean into the Lord but sometimes there’s something inside of us that feels a little bit betrayed and let down by him and we pull away from him. 2. Let’s talk about real life. Let’s not just share cute little stories that still make us look good at the same time. Let's talk about how things are hard. Let’s talk about how we go through seasons that are soul-sucking. 3. We can’t help other people if we are not honest about what we’re going through. 4. I think to some degree it is a process of wrestling with our own disappointment and being honest with God about how we feel and everyday saying, “I don’t understand what you’re doing. I don’t understand what the time frame is, but I trust you. I trust that you know better than I know and you have good things for us in the future,” and sometimes that’s all I have to hold onto. 5. Sometimes we think partnering with God we’re going to be more confident. We’re going to have all the answers. I think sometimes God asks us to partner with him and we need to just keep swinging that hammer even when it doesn’t make sense. Great things we discussed: 1. The Personal History of David Copperfield 2. Standing Strong Hope you loved this episode! Be sure to subscribe in iTunes and slap some stars on a review! :) xo, Alli www.alliworthington.com/podcast
