152. When Doing Replaces Living
You've got three things open on your screen, a half-written email, a conversation you've been meaning to have for three days, and a phone that keeps buzzing. You're not behind. You're not ahead. You're just in all of it — at the same time. You craved this life. You prayed for it. You got it. You just never learned how to live in it. In this episode, Dr. Phyllis doesn't just talk about landing — she guides you through a 60-second Landing Moment right in the middle of the episode. By the time you turn it off, you won't just think differently. You'll feel different.
This week’s reflection:
What if you stopped measuring your worth by how much you carry and gave yourself permission to be fully present in the life you prayed for?
