238: Impacting Others through Missions, Ministry, and Marriage, with Stephanie Gutierrez

Do you feel drawn to work or serve in a variety of contexts? In today’s episode, I’m joined by Stephanie Gutierrez, a missionary and life coach who has identified three “boxes” to focus on in her work.

We’ll talk about:

• Why becoming a missionary meant facing one of Stephanie’s biggest fears, and how she moved through it
• How Stephanie and her husband make big life decisions
• Why she is passionate about serving pastors and missionaries as a Life Coach
• How having a filter for your work can help you decide when to say yes or no

We also discuss how to pay attention to your energy as you take pauses in your day to avoid living from rush. I know you’ll love our conversation as Stephanie shares how she has discovered her unique calling in a variety of contexts, while still staying true to herself.
