880. When you’re not on the timeline you thought you’d be

Author: Krista Williams & Lindsey Simcik | Wellness & Personal Growth Hosts June 18, 2026 Duration: 45:03
Listen up, ladies—Krista here. Can we talk about something that's been weighing on my heart? Lately, I've been questioning everything I thought my life would look like by this age—marriage, motherhood, success, and whether I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be. In this deeply personal solo episode, I'm opening up about the pressure of timelines, the fear of falling behind, and the tension between trusting God's plan + wanting certain things for your future. If you've ever felt like everyone else is moving faster than you, this episode will feel like a hug, a reality check, and a reminder that your timeline isn't broken. 💛 We also talk about: Why birthdays can become powerful portals for reflection + self-discovery The pressure women feel around marriage, motherhood, and career success Navigating the fear of being "behind" in life Trusting God's timing when life doesn't go according to plan The tension between freedom, commitment, and future family goals How societal timelines differ from your soul's unique path Resources: Instagram: @itskrista Website: https://itskrista.com/ Sponsors: The Absorption Company | Start taking supplements your body can actually absorb.
