Radical Obedience Over Outcome: Trusting God When Faithfulness Doesn’t Feel Fruitful
My word for 2025 is “Radical Obedience” and as I shared in my post Joy in the Pause, God gave me the opportunity to choose Radical Obedience, at the beginning of this year-and I’ve been choosing to walk it out, one step at a time.

Friday Fun Fact #5
Happy Friday, Friend! It’s time for the weekly “Satin’s Friday Fun Fact”! I giggle when I’m talking to a client who is an introvert and I casually tell them, “So am I” because they never can tell! I’ve never shied away from people which lends people to thinking I am an extrovert, but…
