In this episode of 'Steps to Trusting,' host Erin Michelle discusses the struggles of people pleasing and the importance of shifting our trust from people to the Lord. She shares personal anecdotes and reflects on scripture, particularly Jeremiah 17, to illustrate the difference between seeking validation from others and finding true identity and value in God. Erin encourages listeners to let disappointments serve as invitations to deepen their trust in God and act out of love rather than a need for approval. The episode concludes with a prayer and a reminder to root our worth in God's truth.

I would love to hear from you.
