I didn’t go looking for a breakthrough—I just needed rest. But a week away from my normal routine led to some of the most powerful moments I’ve had in a long time. In today’s episode, I share three unexpected lessons from our annual vacation—how rest deepened my marriage, renewed my mindset, and helped me hear from God more clearly than I have in months. If you’re running on empty, this might be the episode that helps you breathe again.
