Ever feel torn between what you should do and what you want to do? Oh friend, you’re not alone—and this week’s episode with the amazing Heidi White dives straight into that tension.

Heidi is a teacher, speaker, and author of Divided Soul: Duty and Desire in Literature and Life, joins me to unpack the stories we live and the ones we tell—through scripture, literature, and real life.

We talk about Adam and Eve, the prodigal son, and how our desires and responsibilities pull us in opposite directions (hello, relatable!). You’ll walk away with fresh perspective, grace for your journey, and maybe a little “aha” moment or two.

Xo,

Donna
