Quotes and statements within the interview:

"God was with me in the journey."

"I didn't grow up thinking I was going to be a broadcaster."

"I stopped asking my kids that -- what do you want to do and what do you want to be?"

"I joke that you have to be a little crazy to want to work in this field, because of the deadlines, the unmovable deadlines."

"When I got to a certain point where I decided I needed to take a step back, I know my relationship with God was suffering."

"My landscape around me was just on fire!"

"And I knew that my professed values were totally clashing with my personal and professional choices."

"Why is everybody getting my leftovers? It shouldn't be like this." (Paula asking God)

"I didn't live happily ever after."

"I misplaced my significance based upon that. And that's what I think we all do."

"Love God and love people."

"Vocational calling is just the vehicle. IT's just the conduit by which you love God and love people."

"Did I just kill my career?"

Whenever you're making a decision, for me, fear has just plagued me my whole life."

"Fear isn't something that we conquer and never have to deal with again."

"Faith is taking that first step when you can't see the staircase."

"My values were clashing with my choices."

"My Dad in his passing gave me and my siblings the gift of perspective and the gift of knowing what's sequential and what's not."

"I live knowing that that day will come and I will see my Father again."

"But what I would tell my younger self is that to remember what you're doing and who you're doing it for."

"I had to (a) accept that worth wasn't work and that gave me the permission to see myself more than what I did."

 

What has your story gifted you?

  • Grace

"I have failed more times than I can count. But I feel like in these failures, God has allowed me, to not only give myself grace but give other people grace."

"And I've learned more through my own failures and shortcomings than I have from my successes. I just think we've been given grace so undeservedly, we need to dole it out to others and to ourselves."
