Elevation Talks with Naye Liggines

Maybe You're Not Stuck. You're Just in the Wrong Season.

Have you ever felt like you're doing everything God asked you to do, but somehow you still feel stuck? You're praying. You're trusting. You're showing up. You're putting in the work. So why does it feel like nothing is moving? In this episode, I want to challenge the idea that you're stuck. What if you're simply in a different season? I share what God has been teaching me in my own waiting season, why silence doesn't mean He's absent, and how understanding the season you're in can completely change the way you see your journey. We'll talk about obedience, waiting, preparation, pruning, harvest, and the eight spiritual seasons that shape our growth. My hope is that by the end of this conversation, you'll stop seeing your current season as a setback and start recognizing it as part of God's process. If you've been wondering why God feels quiet, why your breakthrough seems delayed, or what He's doing behind the scenes, this episode is for you.

What Do You Do When You're Beginning to Lose Faith?

The Day I Stopped Living for Other People's Approval

What happens when you stop living for other people's approval and start embracing who God created you to be? In this episode of Elevation Talks, Naye Liggins reflects on Father's Day, the father figures who helped shape his life, and a powerful conversation that forever changed his understanding of identity, acceptance, and unconditional love. Through personal stories and honest reflection, Naye explores what it means to be fully seen, fully known, and still loved. He shares how God's affirmation helped him move beyond the expectations of others and step into a more authentic version of himself. This conversation is for anyone who has ever felt misunderstood, struggled with acceptance, wrestled with identity, or found themselves searching for belonging. It's a reminder that your worth is not determined by the opinions of people and that God's approval isn't something you have to earn. In this episode, you'll discover: • Why living for approval can keep you from becoming who you're meant to be • The impact of unconditional love and acceptance • How God fills the gaps left by broken or imperfect relationships • The importance of spiritual family and purposeful community • What it means to walk confidently in your authentic identity No matter where you are in your journey, this episode will encourage you to stop seeking permission from people and start embracing the person God already called you to be.

The Real Reason You're Not Moving Forward | The Power of Becoming

The Real Reason You're Not Moving Forward | The Power of Becoming What if the thing keeping you stuck isn't a lack of opportunity, resources, or talent? What if it's the version of yourself you've been refusing to outgrow? In this episode of Elevation Talks, Nate shares a raw and honest conversation about personal growth, obedience, self-leadership, and the uncomfortable process of becoming who you've been called to be. From overthinking and self-doubt to outgrowing relationships, environments, and old habits, this episode challenges you to take a hard look at the decisions that are quietly delaying your growth. You'll discover why staying busy isn't the same as making progress, how comfort can become a trap, and why the life you want often requires letting go of the version of you that's been playing it safe. Nate also shares lessons from his own journey of building, creating, and learning to trust God's process even when the full plan wasn't clear. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why movement and forward movement are not the same thing • How overthinking can become another form of hiding • The hidden cost of staying attached to what you've outgrown • Why consistency matters more than feeling ready • How to stop shrinking and start becoming • The role faith and obedience play in personal transformation • Why your next level requires a different version of you If you've been feeling stuck, frustrated, burnt out, or like you're capable of more than what you're currently experiencing, this conversation is for you. The life you're praying for may require you to become the person who can carry it. Press play and take your next step forward.

Some Prayers Are Waiting on Your Development

Most people think they're waiting on God. But what if God is waiting on you? In this episode, I unpack one of the biggest realizations I've had on my journey: being called and being ready are not the same thing. After attending the Truth & Fire Conference, I found myself reflecting on purpose, capacity, spiritual formation, and the often-overlooked process of becoming. We spend so much time praying for the next opportunity, the next level, the next open door, but rarely stop to ask: Who am I becoming in the process? I share lessons from my own journey, including what happened when I finally received an opportunity I had prayed for, only to discover I wasn't fully prepared to carry it. If you've ever felt stuck, frustrated, behind, overlooked, or like there's more in you than what you're currently experiencing, this conversation is for you. Because sometimes the delay isn't punishment. Sometimes it's development.
