UL 334: How to Honor Your Voice and Trust God in Difficult Seasons (Aundi Kolber)

What do you really need? And what would it look like to engage life with a deeper sense of agency and self-compassion?

Today on Unhurried Living Podcast, Gem is joined by professional counselor and best-selling author Aundi Kolber, whose new book, Take What You Need: Soft Words for Hard Days, invites us to embrace the transformative power of kindness toward ourselves. We’ll explore how early experiences shape the way we suppress our needs, why it’s so hard to name and honor what we truly feel, and how practicing softness can actually make us stronger. 

In this conversation, you’ll learn:

✨ How our past experiences shape the way we engage with our needs and emotions ✨ Why self-compassion is a powerful (and often overlooked) tool for transformation ✨ A simple prayer or body practice you can use in moments of stress

Join us as we dive deep into what it means to cultivate resilience, trust, and a deeper friendship with God—even in the hard places.
