🎧 Full Episode Show Notes Episode 117 Sometimes... We Just Don't Like Our Life Can we be honest for a minute? Sometimes...we just don't like our life. Not because we aren't grateful. Not because we don't love the people God has placed in our lives. But because life has become heavier than we ever imagined. Financial stress. Caregiving. Grief. A job that's draining the life out of you. Dreams that have been put on hold. Loneliness. Waiting on prayers that still seem unanswered. In this episode, Coach Del creates space for one of the most honest conversations we've had on the podcast—giving ourselves permission to acknowledge that we don't like the season we're in without confusing that with a lack of gratitude or faith. In this episode we'll explore: Why gratitude and disappointment can exist at the same time. The difference between disliking your circumstances and rejecting your life. How guilt often keeps us from telling ourselves the truth. Why honesty is often the first step toward healing. The hope found in 1 Peter 5:10, reminding us that suffering is never the end of our story. If today's conversation encouraged you, remember this: Not liking your life in this season doesn't make you faithless. It makes you honest. And honesty is often where healing begins.
