Description: Are you ready for a thought-provoking, honest conversation about building in uncomfortable places? What about trusting God’s timing and releasing shame before stepping into a new season? Using Jeremiah 29 as our foundation, Desiree and I unpack what it really means to build, plant, and multiply—even when you’re not where you thought you’d be. This episode speaks directly to leaders, builders, entrepreneurs, and anyone navigating transition, relocation, or starting over. In this episode, we talk about: Why obedience matters more than clarity Building structure in unfamiliar seasons Planting roots in places that don’t feel permanent Releasing shame before stepping into purpose Trusting God’s plan even when the location changes Why community is essential to building well This conversation is for the person who said “yes” to God—but didn’t expect the process to look like this. 🎧 New episodes of Jess Ask the Podcast drop every Thursday. 💛 If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who’s building again.
