Ep. 120 - Worrying Just Isn’t Worth It (...

Michelle Maros & Barb Schmidt
About this episode

In this week's episode, Barb and Michelle discuss the often requested topic of worry. Sharing from personal experience, Barb and Michelle chat about how worry shows up in their lives and how they’ve slowly intended to release the unnecessary nature of it.


We take a deep dive into:

  • What is worry?
  • Why are we so quick to lean into worry?
  • How can we worry less?
  • What would life look like with faith over worry?
