I’ve been there too. I start this episode by reminding us that feeling blindsided doesn’t mean we’re weak; it simply means we’re human. Here’s the truth I’ve learned: resilience isn’t some magical stroke of luck. It’s the result of faith and preparation working hand in hand. In this episode, I share how we can build a solid foundation, one that won’t collapse the moment life’s winds start picking up. As I break down the essentials of resilience, I share real stories of people who’ve faced life’s curveballs head-on—job losses, emergency repairs, financial strain. We’ve all been there in one way or another. The good news? Preparation makes a massive difference. I talk about identifying our “vulnerability zones” and creating plans that help us avoid the panic that usually sets in during a crisis. Thinking ahead, naming those potential storms, and building a strategy around them is key. And yes, having a solid emergency fund truly is like having a safety net ready to catch you when you fall.I wrap up with some action steps to help us become more financially resilient, spiritually grounded, and emotionally strong. I challenge you—as I’m challenging myself—to reflect on the surprises of this past year and decide what needs to shift moving forward. Maybe it’s setting aside a little money each month or reevaluating priorities to focus on what really matters.Whatever steps you take, the core message is this: with faith, preparation, and a supportive community, we can face anything that comes our way.
