#30 The Faith to Keep Going — When the Struggle Still Shows Up

If you’re doing the right things but still struggling, this episode is for you. We explore what Paul teaches in Romans 7 and why faith-filled alignment doesn’t always mean the struggle disappears.

Why do we keep doing the things we don’t want to do — even when we love God and are walking in alignment? This episode gently unpacks Paul’s reflection in Romans 7 and how it intersects with Identity-Level Recalibration. You’ll hear a personal story, a scriptural anchor, and encouragement to keep going when the struggle still shows up. Progress isn’t always visible. But faithfulness always leaves a mark.

In This Episode, We Cover:

• Why Paul’s words in Romans 7 are so relatable — especially for high-capacity believers
  
  
• How your nervous system can still default even when your heart is aligned
  
  
• The emotional toll of slipping into high-performance patterns during the process
  
  
• Julie’s vulnerable experience of building ILR in stillness
  
  
• What calibrated trust looks and feels like vs. emotional adrenaline
  
  
• How grace meets us in the tension between progress and struggle
  
  
• A practical, faith-centered recalibration for moments of discouragement
  
  
  

Today’s Micro-Recalibration (Faith-Forward)
Ask yourself:

• Where am I still feeling tension — even though I’m walking in alignment?
  
  
• Am I allowing grace to meet me in this moment, or am I judging myself for still struggling?
  
  
• What would it look like to measure today by faithfulness, not flawlessness?
  
  

The struggle doesn’t disqualify you.
It reminds you that grace still leads the way.
