100 | Functioning But Not Fulfilled? Why Habits Aren't the Same as Values

"See, I Am Doing a New Thing: From Habit-Driven to Values-Driven"

Hey friend, before we get into today's episode, I want to invite you into something.

I'm currently offering one-hour Survival Mode Breakthrough Coaching calls. One hour, just you and me. We'll identify your three core values, we'll look honestly at where your life is actually out of alignment with them, and you'll leave with one clear next step for each one — your plan, built for your real life, not a generic checklist.

It's $47, and it's for the woman who's functioning — getting things done, holding it all together — but knows deep down that most of it is coming from habit, not from what she actually believes matters. If that's you, message me at 970.279.1818 to book. Okay — let's get into today's story.

You're getting everything done. Kids fed, work finished, house running. From the outside, you look like you have it together.

But if you're honest — how much of it is coming from what you actually value, versus what you've just always done?

In this episode, I take you back to a season in my own life where I was functioning perfectly well... and still living almost entirely out of habit instead of out of what I believed mattered most, for me and for my kids. I share what shifted when I started working with a life coach — someone to walk alongside me — and how I began to see choices and new beginnings I hadn't noticed were there all along.

If you're functioning but not sure it's fulfilling, this episode is for you.

There's a quiet difference between a full life and an aligned life — and most of us don't know we're living the first one instead of the second until someone walks alongside us long enough to help us see it.

In this episode, I share a season from my own story: single motherhood, finishing my master's, working, showing up for my kids every day — and doing it all from habit instead of from my values. I talk about what changed when I started working with a life coach, and how Isaiah 43:19 reframed what a "new thing" from God can actually look like.

In This Episode

• The difference between functioning and flourishing
• Why new beginnings don't require a crisis first — just a willingness to notice the gap
• What changed when I had someone walking alongside me instead of doing this alone
• How habit-driven choices quietly replace values-driven ones without us noticing
• Why the wilderness in Isaiah 43:19 isn't always a dramatic season — sometimes it's autopilot
