If you’ve been feeling stuck, second-guessing yourself, or quietly carrying something that hasn’t shifted, this episode is for you.

01: Walking Anyway

What happens when everything changes—and you’re asked to keep walking anyway? A couple of years ago, my family moved from Vancouver to Spain. On the outside, it looked like a clear step forward. But underneath, it didn’t feel that way. There was grief. Disorientation. And moments where even God felt harder to find. If you’re navigating a life transition, feeling uncertain about what’s next, or trying to trust God in a hard season, this episode is for you. This podcast began there—not in clarity, but in the middle of a life that no longer felt steady. Walking Anyway is a podcast about living faithfully in uncertain seasons—especially during life transitions, when you’re learning to trust God even without clarity. In this first episode, we talk about what it means to follow God in seasons of change, when your life looks different but your faith feels uncertain. I’m sharing the story behind that beginning—what changed, what didn’t, and the quiet question that surfaced along the way. In this episode, we explore: – navigating life transitions and unexpected change – what it looks like to trust God in uncertain seasons – how to stay present when life feels unclear Each week, we’ll come back to this—one small way to stay with your life, just as it is,with your body, your story, and with God, even when you can’t quite feel where He is. If you’ve been waiting for clarity before you move forward, this episode is an invitation to take one small step… anyway. Because this isn’t something we just think about—it’s something we practice.

Living with Uncertainty: Introducing the Walking Anyway Podcast

Walking Anyway is a podcast about living with uncertainty and learning how to live faithfully in seasons that don’t resolve the way you thought they would. When life feels stuck. When nothing seems to change. When you’re navigating a life transition and trying to move forward without clarity—or without losing yourself in the process. Hosted by author and spiritual director Denisa Nica, each short, reflective episode offers a quiet space to help you: – name what’s actually hard – stay present to your real life and faith – take one small, honest step at a time This is a podcast for uncertain seasons— when your faith feels quieter, when God feels harder to find, or when something in your life isn’t shifting the way you hoped. It’s not about fixing your life or finding quick answers. It’s about learning how to live inside the life you already have— with steadiness, honesty, and a little more gentleness. If you’ve been wondering what to do when nothing is changing, or how to keep trusting when life feels uncertain— you’re not alone. You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. You can start right where you are… and keep walking anyway.
