Ep244 – Creating Epiphanies Out of Life with Anna Girgan
There comes a moment when life as we know it starts to fall apart — not to destroy us, but to guide us back to who we’re meant to be. Burnout, loss, and uncertainty can become the very things that wake us up to a deeper sense of purpose and peace. This episode is about what happens when we stop running from the unraveling and start trusting the transformation waiting on the other side.
In this heartfelt conversation, April sits down with Anna Girgan, transformational mindset and leadership coach and founder of Epiphanies Coaching. Anna opens up about leaving a high-powered corporate career, navigating deep personal loss, and finding her way back to faith and freedom through radical surrender. Her story is a beautiful reminder that healing and purpose often begin where certainty ends.
Listen in as Anna shares with us:
How burnout became the turning point that led Anna to rediscover herself
The powerful moment she heard God’s voice — and what it took to follow that calling
Lessons from her solo cross-country road trip that turned into a journey of healing and faith
How loss, grief, and surrender shaped her resilience and renewed her spirit
The divine inspiration behind Epiphanies Coaching and her Epiphanies Journal on money mindset
Why owning her story and sharing it publicly became a pathway to freedom
How she now helps other women heal, align, and live abundantly through her transformational retreats
Anna’s story reminds us that sometimes life has to break us open before it can build us anew. When we surrender our plans and choose trust over fear, we create space for grace to do its work.
