The Thing I Said I'd Never Do - Sherisse Alexander

A year ago, a direction came and I rejected it outright. This is the story of how the Divine patiently walked me back to the work I was made for — and what happened the day I finally said yes.<br data-text="true">This is a solo episode, and a personal one.About a year ago, an idea came to me about who I was meant to work with. And I said no. Flatly. I had my reasons, and I went off in the opposite direction, certain I knew better.The Divine had other plans — and a lot more patience than I did.<br data-text="true">In this episode, I share:The direction I resisted, and the honest, unflattering reason I pushed it away.How it came back — not by force, but through three quiet conversations and finally through my own daughter, who saw what I couldn't.The moment in my office with a friend that showed me I was already doing this work, I just hadn't named it.What I've come to understand about how much men carry, and the one thing most of them were never given.A real-time lesson in receiving a direction without immediately trying to force it into being.The reminder my own spirit gave me: you'll build it, and they will come.<br data-text="true">This is an episode about resistance, surrender, and the strange grace of being walked home to the very thing you swore you'd never do.<br data-text="true">And toward the end, I share something new that's coming. I won't name it yet — it isn't fully formed, and that's exactly the point of this episode. But if you're a man carrying something heavy, or you love one who is, stay close. There's going to be a place for that soon.<br data-text="true">A reflection to sit with:What's the thing you've said you'd never do — that keeps quietly finding its way back to you?<br data-text="true">https://www.pavitraleadership.com<br data-text="true">sherisse@pavitraleadership.com<br data-text="true">To get more of Sacred Leadership with Sherisse, be sure to visit the podcast page for replays of all her shows here: https://www.inspiredchoicesnetwork.com/podcast/sacred-leadership-with-sherisse/
