OM DENNE EPISODE
In this episode of The Life You’re Made For, Dr. Heather Penny sits down with Heather Johnson from Bridgeway Church in Roseville, CA to explore what it really means to experience transformational growth. From navigating seasons of caregiving to stepping into leadership as the first woman to preach at her church, Heather shares how growth is rarely comfortable but always meaningful. Together, they unpack the tension between challenge and purpose, reminding us that while we can’t always control what we go through, we can choose how we respond.
This conversation dives deep into the inner work of leadership by learning to give yourself grace, recognizing the voice of your inner critic, and building the courage to take risks even when anxiety shows up. You’ll hear honest reflections on failure, resilience, and the small, everyday decisions that shape who we become.
If you’ve ever felt stuck between protecting yourself and stepping into something greater, this episode will challenge and encourage you to lean into discomfort, embrace growth at your own pace, and remember: you’ve done hard things before—and you can do them again.
Step into The Life You're Made For, I'm cheering you on!
