What if the very pressure you’re trying to escape is the evidence you’re right where you’re meant to be? We dive into a candid and faith-filled look at pressure, proof, and calling—anchored in Zechariah 13:9—and unpack why resistance often rises right where purpose begins to take shape. Catherine breaks down clear definitions of pressure as force applied, proof as evidence, and calling as a deep sense of purpose, then connects them to the refining work God does when we step toward the life He designed.
We explore the “weight room” of calling: how spiritual growth mirrors physical training, why the burn is not a sign to quit, and how distractions, fear, and doubt can signal you’re actually on the right track. You’ll hear practical ways to keep pressing toward the prize when the path gets muddy, including what to do when a joyful hobby turns into necessary work, how to keep serving with or without applause, and how to trust God for provision instead of tying your purpose to outcomes. Catherine shares personal reflections on insecurity and trust, showing how God targets our concealed places first—not to shame us, but to free us.
You’ll leave with a simple but powerful assignment: grab a journal and list your dark places. Name the fears, patterns, and pressure points that keep you circling the same mountain. Then watch for small, honest shifts—apologizing sooner, setting one boundary, praying first—that move you closer to your purpose. Pressure might not feel good, but it can be holy evidence that you are being refined, readied, and rooted for impact.
If this speaks to you, follow the show, share it with a friend who’s in the thick of growth, and leave a review to help others find these conversations. Your story matters—what’s one pressure point you’re reframing as proof today?
A journey through spiritual refinement, identity, healing, and growth, learning how pressure produces purpose and reveals the diamond within.
