I once walked across a bed of hot coals. Then, I did it again.

The first time felt like proof I could do anything.

The second time left me with second-degree burns across my foot… and a question I couldn’t shake:

WTF?

This story is about the difference between resistance and wisdom—and how easy it is to confuse the two.

Sometimes the moments that change our lives don’t look like turning points.

They look like interruptions.
Like detours.
Like something that doesn’t quite make sense at the time.

And yet…

when you look back, you can see it clearly—
that was the moment everything shifted.

💜

What’s one moment like that for you?

It happened in a small-town diner parking lot at sunrise. I had a head cold, a bad attitude, and one clear plan:
Get on the plane and go home. And then—out of nowhere—a voice cut through everything: "You have to stay here." It didn’t make sense. "You have to stay here." No next step. Just an insistence from within I couldn’t ignore. So I didn’t.

Most of us think clarity arrives when we’re calm, centered, and ready. But what if it doesn’t? What if the moments that change everything arrive when you’re tired…
when your plans fall apart…
when something inside you refuses to be ignored?
I didn’t have a map.
I had a moment.
And I chose to trust it.

This week’s Field Note is about those moments—the ones that don’t look like answers but quietly change the direction of your life.
