ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What if the problems you are praying your way through are actually a gift?
In the final episode of her podcast series with Annie F. Downs, Candace and Annie land on that question after Annie describes an afternoon alone at the Met. Standing before a 200-year-old portrait of three friends, she realized the men in it no longer get to worry, decide, or hope, and that every hard thing still ahead of her is something only the living get to carry.
From there they talk about gratitude that doesn’t deny the hard things in life. Annie holds real sadness, a painful change at one of the companies she runs, in the same hand as something small and good like a golden kiwi or a Sumo orange. She and Candace also get honest about choosing a new season without a clear sign from God, and Annie's plan to close her company for a three-month Sabbath in 2027.
Annie shares the two-degree change she learned in counseling, the small decisions that redirect a life over time. Candace and Annie also answer listener questions from Coley on staying happy, Callie on healthy friendships, and Christina on staying motivated through a hard winter.
Find more from Candace at candace.com, where you can grab the free downloadable quiz from Annie's new book, Don't Let That Hold You Back, and join the Together community.
Annie's book Remember God and her Advent study for single women go even deeper on much of what they talk about here.
Life is like a rollercoaster, but it's better when we go through it together!
