Creating Your Yes: Trusting God While Taking the Next Step (w/Author, Angela Marie Hutchinson)

You’ve prayed about it. You’ve put in the effort. And you’re still hearing “no.” Do you keep persevering, try something different, or take it as a sign to move on? And how do you know when you’re following God’s lead versus pushing for something that may not be right for you?
We’re welcoming Angela Marie Hutchinson, television and film producer, screenwriter, and author of Create Your Yes (When You Keep Hearing No). Angela brings humor, honesty, and a strong faith to a conversation about rejection, purpose, and taking the next step when the outcome is anything but certain.
Her experiences reach well beyond Hollywood, touching on motherhood, unexpected challenges, and those everyday moments when trusting God and figuring out what to do next go hand in hand:
When “No” Makes You Question Everything: Rejection can feel personal, especially when you’ve invested your heart in something. We explore how to approach the roadblocks without assuming every setback means you’re headed in the wrong direction.
Waiting on God or Afraid to Move? There’s value in waiting, and there’s also that uncomfortable moment when it may be time to act. We talk honestly about the questions that come up when you’re trying to tell the difference.
Small Steps When the Big Picture Is Unclear: What happens when the goal feels far away and so much is outside your control? Angela offers a different way to think about progress that makes room for both faith and practical action.
Purpose Beyond a Job Title or a Certain Age: Whether you’re considering something new or wondering if you’ve missed your chance, we explore purpose in ways that might bring some overlooked parts of your own story to mind.
The Unexpected Ways God Connects Our Stories: Angela shares personal experiences—including a surprising encounter over coffee—that raise a bigger question: What if something you’ve been through could help someone else?
If you’ve been wondering, “Do I keep going, or is it time to change direction?” this conversation offers encouragement and plenty to think about as you prayerfully consider your next step.
