Hey friend! Welcome to The Megan May Podcast. If you've been hanging out in your comfort zone, I hate to break it to you... but your lease is up. This season is all about getting uncomfortable because I believe your biggest growth, your deepest purpose, and the life you're meant to live are usually found on the other side of what's familiar. We're diving into conversations that will challenge you, stretch you, and encourage you to step into who you were created to be. We'll talk about faith, purpose, marriage, motherhood, wellness, personal growth, and what it really looks like to say yes to what God has for your life. So whether you're driving to work, folding laundry, out on a walk, or hiding in your pantry for five minutes of peace, I'm so glad you're here. I'm Megan, and this is Season 4 of The Megan May Podcast. Let's get uncomfortable.

    Bigger Than Your Excuses: Lessons From My First 10K

    The other week, I did something hard. Something I never thought I would do. Something I wanted to give up on more times than I can count. I ran my first 10K. But the biggest lesson wasn't about running a race. It was about what happened mentally in the process of preparing for it and pushing through it. The doubts, the excuses, the back-and-forth between the voice telling me to keep going and the one telling me to quit. I had plenty of reasons not to do it. And believe me, I considered every single one of them. But I showed up. I kept going. And I proved to myself that I am capable of doing hard things, even when I don't feel ready or believe I can. In this episode, I share what this experience taught me about mindset, perseverance, and the power of following through when quitting feels like the easier option. And I want to challenge you to think about this: When was the last time you celebrated an accomplishment you once thought was impossible? Maybe it's time to give yourself more credit for how far you've come and what you're capable of achieving. Because sometimes, the biggest victory isn't crossing the finish line. It's proving to yourself that you can.

    Finding My Way Back to Church

    For a long time, church was something I went to because I had to, not because I wanted to. Growing up, my grandparents would threaten us if we didn’t go, and my relationship with God was often more about praying when I desperately needed something than genuinely seeking Him. But about eight years ago, something changed. I was invited to a new church, and that experience completely changed the way I viewed church, community, and my relationship with God. In this episode, I share my personal journey with church, the experiences that shaped the way I viewed it, and how finding the right church community had such an incredible impact on my life and my family's life. And I want to challenge you: if you've experienced church hurt, disappointment, or have simply never felt like you belonged, don't give up. Dig into that hurt. Work through it. And be willing to find a church community where you can grow, ask questions, build relationships, and pursue God alongside people who genuinely want to do the same. Maybe church isn't the problem. Maybe you just haven't found your church yet.

    Big Feelings Can Be A Big Problem

    I’m a big feelings girl. I love big. I care big. I get excited big. And honestly, I think that’s one of the beautiful things about being me But sometimes, big feelings can become a big problem. In this episode, I’m talking about the beauty of feeling deeply while also getting honest about what happens when our feelings start to run the show. When disappointment keeps us from moving forward. When fear keeps us from doing what we know we’re supposed to do. When we let how we feel outweigh what we know. When our emotions become an excuse to stay stuck instead of choosing obedience, discipline, or simply doing the next right thing. If you’re a big feelings girl too, this episode isn’t about becoming less emotional or caring less. It’s about learning to recognize when your feelings are serving you and when they’re getting in your way. Because you can feel it all without having to follow it all!

    In this raw and deeply honest episode, I sit down with Brady and Sara Hand to talk about their journey through faith, marriage, infertility, loss, failed IVF, and embryo adoption. They share the hard moments, the heartbreak, and the questions that came along the way but also what happened when they chose to get uncomfortable, trust their gut, and follow the path God was calling them toward. Their journey ultimately led them to embryo adoption and becoming a family of three. Today, they’re using their experience to help others walking through infertility, loss, and so much more! This is a conversation about trusting God when you don’t understand the plan, fighting for your marriage through difficult seasons, and finding hope on the other side.

    Are You Staying In Your Lane?

    In this episode, we’re talking about the importance of staying in your lane, recognizing the gifts you’ve been given, understanding the purpose you’ve been called to, and having the wisdom to know what belongs to you and what doesn’t. It’s so easy to veer into someone else’s lane. We start comparing or feeling guilty. We say yes when we should say no. We take on responsibilities that aren’t ours. We fill our calendars with unnecessary commitments, and before we know it, we’re exhausted, distracted, and stretched too thin. And the truth is, staying in your lane doesn’t mean you don’t care about other people or things. It means you understand that you cannot be everything to everyone and do it well. We’re taking this conversation into the areas where it matters most: marriage, friendships, work, motherhood, and personal growth. What does it actually look like to stay in your lane? How do you recognize when you’ve veered out of it? And what happens when you finally give yourself permission to focus on what you need to in the particular season you are in. The question and challenge is for you: Are you staying in your lane?

    Discomfort Isn’t Bad: What Back-to-School Can Teach Us About the Things We Can’t Control

    Back-to-school comes with so many things we can control: the backpack we choose, what we wear, how we look, and the excitement of seeing friends again. But what about everything we can’t control? We don’t know our teachers yet. We don’t know how the school year will go. We don’t know what challenges or changes might come our way. And sometimes, those unknowns can keep us up at night. In this episode, I’m talking about the discomfort that comes with not knowing and how easy it is to cheer our kids on as they step into something new while forgetting to cheer ourselves on when we’re uncomfortable, uncertain, or anxious. We often think discomfort is something we need to get rid of. We want to get back to what feels familiar and comfortable as quickly as possible. But discomfort isn’t bad. Sometimes, it’s simply a sign that we’re stepping into something new. So as we encourage our kids through another school year, this episode is also an invitation to remember, Discomfort isn’t bad.

    Don’t Let Your Story Die With You

    Two years ago this month, I launched my book, From Zero to Four. As I reflect on that journey and continue to receive messages from people sharing how my book and my story have impacted them, I’ve been reminded of just how powerful it can be to share the parts of our lives that feel the hardest to talk about. There was a point while writing my book when I froze. Sharing my story felt scary, vulnerable, and incredibly uncomfortable. Part of me wanted to stay in that place of comfort, to leave certain chapters unwritten and keep the most vulnerable pieces of my life to myself. But if I had stayed frozen, those pages wouldn’t exist. The words someone needed to read wouldn’t be there. The story that was meant to encourage someone else wouldn’t have reached them. And maybe you have a story like that, too. Maybe there’s something you’ve lived through, learned, overcome, or experienced that you’ve been afraid to share. Maybe your knowledge, your mistakes, your testimony, or your perspective could be exactly what someone else needs to hear. In this episode, I’m sharing a reminder I’ve had to give myself again and again: don’t let what you know or what you’ve lived through die with you. Step outside of your comfort zone. Tell the story. Share the lesson. Write the book. Start the conversation. Because what you have lived through matters. 🌿 Connect with Me Follow along for more inspiration and updates: 📸 Instagram: @youmatterbymegan 📘 Facebook: You Matter by Megan 🌱 Want to learn more about the Wellness Co.? https://www.jotform.com/form/251703163353147 📖 Grab a copy of my book, From Zero To Four: https://a.co/d/0cu8UcNK
