Bold Prayers, Open Hands: Finding Peace in the Pivot with Jen Howat, 367

What do you do when God calls you to pivot — again — and you're still “recovering” from the last one? My friend, Jen Howat, founder & lead strategist of Build it Better Communications, shares her story of pivoting and how the Lord has positioned her in every season. 
In this episode, you'll explore:
Why pivots rarely come from one moment — Jen shares how it's usually a series of compounding signs that God uses to make the redirect undeniable, and what to look for when you feel restless in your current season.
What it means to hold God responsible for promises He never made — one of the most convicting insights of this conversation, and a question worth sitting with every time disappointment shows up.
How obedience and disobedience both teach you something — Jen is honest about the season she tried to ride two horses at once, and what it cost her — and what it ultimately revealed.
The "both/and" prayer posture that keeps you anchored — how to boldly ask God for abundance and provision while holding it all loosely, and why that tension is not a contradiction — it's faith.
Why your business success is not your hope, your strength, or your shield — and what happens when you stop treating it like it is.
This episode is part of The Power of the Pivot series. Stay tuned for the upcoming episodes as more guests share how the Lord has pivoted them and what has held them steady through it all.
Key Takeaway: You are not too tired to trust God — but you might need to stop trying to make the old thing work and open your hands to what He's already preparing. Jen's story is proof that God doesn't waste a single season, even the ones that feel like dead ends. What you learned there, He'll use here. Hold it boldly. Hold it loosely.
Reflection Question: Where in your business right now are you holding God responsible for a promise He never actually made — and what might change if you released that expectation today?
