What If You're Not Lost? What If You're Being Called?


There was something Greg said during our recent conversation that stayed with me long after we finished recording the interview for Cycles and Sanctity podcast. 
He talked about being a young man who wanted two things at the same time: he wanted to be cool, and he wanted to be holy.
I smiled when he said it because, although our stories are different, I remember feeling something very similar when I was in college.
I loved Jesus.
I wanted to serve Him.
I knew there had to be more.
But I had absolutely no idea what that "more" was supposed to look like.
The truth is, when I was in college, I didn't have people helping me discern.
I didn't have Catholic coaches.
I didn't have FOCUS missionaries.
I didn't have mentors walking beside me asking good questions.
I was trying to figure out God's will mostly on my own.
Looking back, I can see how desperately I wanted someone to help me sort through the noise.
Someone to help me understand what was God, what was fear, what was pressure from other people, and what was simply my own uncertainty.
Instead, I spent a lot of time wondering.
A lot of time second-guessing.
A lot of time asking questions without knowing where to find answers.
Maybe that's where you are right now.
Maybe you love God.
Maybe you're faithful.
Maybe you pray.
Maybe you go to Mass.
But underneath all of that, there is still a nagging question:
"What am I supposed to do with my life?"
For some women, it's a career decision.
For others, it's marriage.
For others, it's motherhood.
For others, it's a ministry opportunity, a business idea, a move, a relationship, or a dream that simply won't leave them alone.
The details are different.
The feeling is the same.
Restlessness.
The world tells us restlessness is something to ignore.
Distract yourself.
Scroll more.
Watch another video.
Stay busy.
Keep moving.
But what if that restlessness is actually trying to tell you something?
What if it isn't a problem to solve?
What if it's an invitation?
One of the things Greg shared was how many young adults are overwhelmed, anxious, lonely, and uncertain about their future.
As I listened to him describe the students he encounters every day, I couldn't help but think about how many women I meet who feel exactly the same way.
They aren't college students anymore.
They're wives.
Mothers.
Professionals.
Grandmothers.
Yet they are still carrying the same questions.
Am I doing what God wants?
Am I wasting my gifts?
What if I make the wrong decision?
Why can't I find peace?
The fear of making the wrong choice keeps many women stuck for years.
Years.
Not weeks.
Not months.
Years.
They wait until they feel 100% certain.
They wait until fear disappears.
They wait until they receive some dramatic sign from heaven.
Meanwhile, life keeps moving.
What I have learned after coaching Catholic women is that clarity rarely comes from overthinking.
Clarity comes from movement.
It comes from prayer.
It comes from honest reflection.
It comes from bringing your thoughts into the light.
It comes from learning how to recognize the difference between God's voice and fear's voice.
And sometimes it comes from simply having another faithful person walk beside you and ask the right questions.
Questions create clarity.
Questions reveal assumptions.
Questions uncover fears.
Questions expose lies.
Questions help us hear God more clearly.
That's one reason I care so deeply about coaching.
Not because I have all the answers.
I don't.
But because I know what it feels like to search for direction without guidance.
I know what it feels like to want someone to help me process what God might be doing.
I know what it feels like to wonder if everyone else received a roadmap except me.
The beautiful truth is that God has not forgotten you.
He is not withholding His plan from you.
He is not hiding from you.
And He is certainly not waiting for you to become perfect before He speaks.
The God who created you also created your purpose.
The God who called Moses, Esther, Peter, and Mary is still calling people today.
Including you.
The question is not whether God is speaking.
The question is whether you've created enough space to hear Him.
If you've been feeling restless lately...
If you've been wondering whether you're missing God's plan...
If you've been carrying a dream, desire, or question that won't leave you alone...
Please don't spend another year trying to figure it out by yourself.
You do not have to stay stuck.
You do not have to keep second-guessing every decision.
You do not have to keep wondering what your life would look like if you finally had clarity.
Let's talk.
Schedule a free discovery call with me.
We'll talk about where you feel stuck, what questions you're wrestling with, and what may be preventing you from moving forward.
You don't need another year of confusion.
You need clarity.
And your next step may be much closer than you think.
