About this listen

Do you struggle with discipline and consistency? You know what you need to do to better your health, finances, relationship, or career. You may have even started to see results. Still, you return to old habits or a dysfunctional situation.

Not being able to stick to your goals isn’t about capability or skills. It’s the fear and discomfort of the unfamiliar that makes obedience so hard.​

In today’s episode, Lisa shares what foster care and living in Rome taught her about living in Radical Obedience ™.​

As a social worker, Lisa saw children removed from dangerous and neglectful situations. Every single one wanted to go back because they felt safer in a bad environment that they knew than they did living in better circumstances that were unfamiliar. When working at the US Embassy in Rome, there was a concession with junk food because even though Americans know how dangerous processed food is, they still chose it in Italy because it felt familiar.

The bottom line is you have to either get used to unfamiliarity or get used to the consequences of disobedience.​

If you are tired of risking your Favor because you’d rather be in a situation you know, instead of doing what you were called to do, this episode is for you. Do new things. Embrace being uncomfortable so you can move forward and live in Radical Obedience ™.
