205 || How We Partner with God to Fulfill His Purposes in the World || Julie Holmquist

The Devoted Dreamers Podcast

Are you ever tempted to seek validation or affirmation from others?

Julie Holmquist thought that she had rooted her identity deeply in Christ, but as soon as she started taking scary steps of faith toward a dream, she realized that she was looking to other people to give her what only He could. And that turned out to be a distraction from the true purpose He had put in her heart.

Julie is an author, Bible study leader and host of the Kairos Moments podcast. She loves empowering women to stop playing it safe with their faith, to start leaning into their calling, and to begin putting bold action behind their God-given dreams.

But she starts out this conversation talking first about her dream that died, how she felt about it, and what happened as a result of submitting her loss to the Lord.

In this interview Julie also shares:

1. How to get unstuck from your feelings of loss when a dream dies,
2. Why you’ve gotta stop waiting for someone else to validate you and your dream (and what to do instead) and
3. How abiding with the Lord is the best fuel for your God-shaped dream
