  • Grace Under Pressure: How to Stay Steady in a Gap Season
    Feb 5 2026

    Episode 54: In this episode, Dr. Lea discusses the concept of 'grace under pressure' and how to navigate through challenging times, particularly during what she calls a 'gap season.' She emphasizes the importance of maintaining a steady mindset, understanding that setbacks do not define one's worth, and offers practical strategies for managing stress and anxiety. The conversation encourages listeners to take small, intentional steps towards their goals while remaining anchored in faith and self-awareness.

    Takeaways

    • Many people experience moments of feeling close to success only to hit roadblocks.
    • A 'gap season' is when you know your goals but aren't seeing results yet.
    • It's important to recognize that setbacks do not reflect your worth.
    • Life's events should be viewed as neutral; it's our response that matters.
    • Learning to weather life's storms is crucial for personal growth.
    • You must learn what resources help you through difficult times.
    • Instead of asking 'Why me?', ask 'How can I stay steady?'.
    • Regulating your emotions before responding is essential.
    • Taking small steps is more effective than trying to plan everything at once.
    • Grace under pressure means staying grounded and present, not pretending everything is fine.
