Quote from Episode:
“In the cold and dead of winter, there’s a spring that waits to be unrevealed until it’s season. Something God alone can see.” — Hymn of Promise
Description:
Nicholas Wade Kimps reflects on patience, trust, and becoming through the wisdom of the Hymn of Promise, the Tao Te Ching, and Ayurveda. This episode explores why growth cannot be rushed, and how wellness practices help us embrace timing, nature, and self-worth.
Show Notes:
In this moving reflection, Nicholas Wade Kimps revisits one of his favorite hymns, Hymn of Promise, as a reminder that life’s unfolding has its own season. With honesty and vulnerability, he shares the tension of trying to “make things happen” with his studio, and the peace that arises when we let go of forcing outcomes and instead trust in the rhythms of becoming.
Drawing from the Tao Te Ching, yoga philosophy, and Ayurvedic wisdom, Nicholas explores how striving drains energy, while presence and practice create space for actualization. Seeds do not stress over becoming trees—they grow in their own time, shaped by environment, rhythm, and grace. In the same way, we actualize not by chasing validation, but by recognizing the quiet success already present in each step we take.
This episode offers both a grounding meditation and a practical invitation: patience is not passivity—it is a radical trust in life’s natural timing.
🔑 Highlights:
• 🌱 Seeds & Becoming: You are already everything you’re meant to be—growth is inevitable, not forced.
• 🕊️ Goalposts & Grace: Redefining success as presence, not chasing moving targets.
• 📖 Wisdom Traditions: How hymns, Taoist philosophy, and Ayurveda all affirm nature’s timing.
• 🌳 Environment & Actualization: Like seeds, we grow differently depending on soil, support, and setting.
• 🔎 Reframing Success: From outcome-chasing to honoring daily showing-up as true progress.
• 🌞 Patience as Power: Trusting the unseen season, knowing it is already in motion.
