What happens when you stop shrinking, stop striving, and finally believe what God says about you?
In this powerful episode of the I Like Birds Podcast, 17-year-old author and entrepreneur Macy Jules shares how she overcame identity struggles, anxiety, perfectionism, unhealthy friendships, and an eating disorder by learning to abide in Christ instead of trying to control everything.
Macy also reveals how she graduated two years early, turned her private journal entries into the book *Revealing Your Greatness*, and grew from 96 to more than 8,000 followers by boldly sharing biblical truth online.
You’ll discover:
* How to replace lies about your identity with God’s truth
* Why your waiting season may actually be preparation
* The difference between exhausting striving and powerful abiding
* How healthy boundaries protect your purpose and peace
* Why God never called you to stay small
You are not buried—you are planted. You are not behind—you are being trained. And you do not have to earn the love of God.
