Welcome to Embracing the Journey with Shell Odum where you will learn personal, profressional & spiritual growth tools through Biblical teachings, so you can transform your thinking and move forward - partnered with God every step of the way. Hi, I’m Shell - disciple of Christ, wife, Christian life coach and organizational consultant. Through the years I’ve tried really hard to find a linear path to follow that leads to fulfillment. What I’ve learned is that the journey is often taken on a windy road and that’s okay. As I learn to accept God’s invitation into intimacy he leads me into the life that I’ve always wanted! After experiencing divorce I finally stopped trying to finish a checklist and started seeking God for each next step according to his will. I went on a path of self-discovery, personal growth, with a ton of prayer and God’s grace along the way. I discovered how to partner with God to completely transform my life and relationships from the inside out, and I can’t wait to share what I’ve learned with you! If you’re ready to stop the self-sabotage keeping you stuck, learn proven strategies for personal growth, and discover an intimate and sustaining relationship with God that will help you move forward emotionally, professionally, and spiritually - this podcast is for you. Grab your journal. It’s time to get to work sis.
