The Truth About Navigating Changes in Life with Andi Andrew

The Alli Worthington Show

Today, we are going to learn from my friend, Andi Andrew. She will help us understand how to face change bravely, navigate it properly, and come through stronger on the other side.

Andi Andrew hosts the Coffee with Andi podcast and has written four books: She Is Free, Fake or Follower, and Friendship--It's Complicated. She is a heartfelt preacher who loves to see the reality of the gospel worked out in everyday lives.

In this episode, Andi shares insights from her new book, Braving Change: Release the Past, Welcome Growth, and Trust Where God is Leading You, and teaches us that Change is a powerful teacher, shaping and molding us more into the likeness of Christ as we let it do its work.

Join Andi and I as we talk about:

• Why Andi wrote her new book about change

• Grief with change

• Moving through change in a healthy way

• How to move forward after grieving

• Developing a game plan for recovery after change

Favorite quotes:

17:47 - “There is a reason why the mourning process in the Bible was so wild and why they would put sackcloth and ashes and wail and mourn. They knew they needed to move it out of their bodies so that they could move forward in life.”

25:05 - “Even taking those little moments that seem impractical like, I don’t have time for this right now. Just let yourself cry for a few minutes and then move on.”

23:08 - “For any of us that are navigating anything, any new strategy for your future, your life, or your job, you need a game plan to recover from loss and to recover from the shifts and changes you just walked through.”

35:53 - “Just slow yourself down, stop grasping, and ask the Lord what do I need and God what do you want to give me? I know that if you ask the Lord, He will actually tell you, show you, and remind you in Scripture. But then don’t just hear him, do it!”
