Podcast Blog: S5, E9 - Tanya Prince, Discerning Identity and Purpose

Tanya Prince had seemingly done everything by the rules all her life. She was a faithful Christian who led small groups and volunteered at her church. She was married and had a good job. Then it all came crashing down.

Through divorce, career loss, and personal failure, her faith went wayward for a couple of years. When Prince rediscovered faith, she also rediscovered identity and purpose in Christ. In this episode, Prince shares how learning to pause, reflect, and seek God changed her life and reinvigorated her faith. The experience has also led to her becoming an author, speaker, and purpose coach.

Highlights of the podcast:

2:28 What does seven-day practical faith mean to Prince

3:46 How Prince’s life turned sour but led to renewed faith

9:17 How to differentiate who you are from what you do

11:44 How to turn crisis into purpose
