  • Ep. 22: Having The Courage To Dream Again
    SummaryIn this episode of Starting Over | Life 2.0 With God, Tom sits down with Paul Berard to talk about something that quietly affects so many of us—what to do when life has knocked the wind out of your dreams. After going through major disappointments, failures, or betrayals, dreaming again can feel risky. Even foolish. But what if that dream still matters? What if God’s not done with it—or with you? This heartfelt conversation explores how to reclaim hope, rebuild your mindset, and protect those dreams from the voices (inside and outside your head) trying to shut them down. It’s honest, personal, and packed with encouragement for anyone trying to move forward after a major setback.What You’ll LearnWhy dreaming again after failure takes real courageHow to tell the difference between a dream and a God-given visionThe power of mindset and how it shapes your futureHow to guard your heart and protect your dreams from negative influencesWhat to do when other people’s opinions threaten to derail your progressWhy You Should ListenIf you’ve ever thought, “It’s too late for me,” or “I don’t even know how to start over,” this episode is for you.
