Let's call this an audio diary... of my thoughts and feelings on marriage, motherhood, getting closer to 40 and more. Let's evolve and grow together through conversation!
016 When Plans Change | Turning 40, Trusting God & Gratitude
Turning 40 brought reflection, gratitude, and a reminder that plans don’t always unfold the way we expect.
In this episode, Ayana shares a personal reflection on her birthday plans changing and how that experience became an opportunity to trust God, rest in Him, and stay grateful. This conversation is about faith, surrender, and remaining grounded when plans shift.
If you’re navigating a season where things look different than you planned, this episode offers encouragement and perspective rooted in trust and gratitude.
