It’s an invitation to stop running, start feeling, and finally begin rebuilding your Unshakable Life.In This Episode:Why running from pain only multiplies it over timeThe difference between being healed and being healingHow grief, trauma, and faith intersect in the rebuilding processWhy boundaries are sacred acts of stewardship, not selfishnessHow to shift from chasing motivation to building meaningWhat it really means to leave a legacy that outlives youFaith ConnectionJim reminds us that healing begins when we stop striving and start surrendering. Real strength isn’t found in pushing harder—it’s found in allowing Christ to meet us in our weakness. As Jim says:“When I couldn’t hold on to myself, Christ held on to me.”This episode calls us back to that kind of faith—the kind that faces pain with courage, invites God into the process, and trusts Him to rebuild what’s been broken.Key TakeawaysAvoidance steals legacy. You can’t outrun what you haven’t healed.You don’t need to be healed to help—just healing.Time doesn’t heal wounds—truth and presence do.Boundaries are sacred.
