Preparing for 2026: Becoming vs. Achieving (+ Free Faith Journey) | Christian Women Over 40

Описание: New Year's resolutions fail because we're trying to achieve transformation instead of allowing God to do the transforming work. What if 2026 wasn't about bigger goals or trying harder, but about addressing the lies keeping you stuck and learning what it means to abide instead of achieve?

WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT:

Why achievement-focused resolutions fail by February
The fundamental difference between achieving and becoming
How lies create strongholds that keep us trapped in cycles of striving
What it means to abide in Christ instead of achieving for Christ
Moving from behavior change to belief transformation

THIS EPISODE IS FOR YOU IF:

You're tired of the New Year's resolution hamster wheel
You've tried to willpower your way to change but keep ending up exhausted
You want lasting transformation, not just temporary behavior modification
You're ready to address what's underneath the striving instead of just trying harder
You feel like you're constantly trying to prove your worth through productivity
