Listen "79. Missions, Mental Health, and Learning to Trust in the Lord's Timing with Kate Sheppard"
Episode Synopsis
Kate struggled with intense anxiety and periods of panic attacks throughout middle school and high school. Because of that and other reasons, she had no intention of serving a mission. But, after several spiritual experiences, she decided it was right for her.
A few weeks after submitting her papers, she learned that, because of her history of panic attacks, her mission call had been delayed for several months. During that time, she needed to meet specific requirements before resubmitting her papers.
In this vulnerable conversation, Kate, who begins her mission in a few days, talks about her experience, what it taught her, and why she is now grateful for the unexpected delay that initially rocked her world.
