In this final episode of the season, we come together to wrap up Season One, reflect on the journey so far, and share a few Christmas thoughts as the year draws to a close.

We talk about the unexpected encouragement that’s come from hearing real stories — people working out their faith, careers, and callings in everyday life, and how humbling it’s been to see how God has used simple obedience to encourage others. We reflect on what it’s meant to sit in conversation together, unpacking faith, work, and life in a way that feels honest, familiar, and shared.

As the year ends, we acknowledge that this season can stir up a lot of questions. Questions about work, career changes, studies, relationships, location, direction and whether the year turned out the way we hoped. We speak into those moments of reflection with encouragement: that no matter how the year has looked, God is still at work, still ordering steps, still going ahead of us, and still faithful.

We close the episode, and the season, with Christmas greetings, messages from guests and listeners, and a reading from Isaiah 9:6–7, reminding us of the peace, hope, and promise found in Jesus. A gentle encouragement to step into the year ahead with expectation, trust, and the assurance that we don’t walk into it alone.

In this episode, we pause to reflect on the conversations we’ve had so far, the themes that have continued to surface, and what God has been quietly highlighting throughout the season.

We talk about the stories our guests shared — how clarity rarely came all at once, how plans shifted, and how faith often looked like taking the next step without having the full picture. We reflect on what it means to trust God without certainty, and how obedience sometimes comes before understanding.

We also draw on reflections from Relentless Pursuit by Ben Cooley, exploring ideas around calling, frustration, creativity, and why reaching the end of a season doesn’t mean something has gone wrong. We talk about how frustration can be a signpost, and how God often uses the things that stir us most to shape what we’re called to create and contribute, right where we are.

The episode closes with a reflection inspired by a recent trip to Rome and the story of Peter — a reminder that calling isn’t about platforms or outcomes, but about faithfulness, obedience, and keeping our eyes on Jesus, one step at a time.

A reflective pause before we close out the year together.

Join us as we sit down with Lloydette Bai-Marrow — solicitor advocate, anti-corruption expert, founder of Parametric Global Consulting, and someone whose career path has been anything but straightforward.

From deciding at six years old that she would become a lawyer (after an argument with her grandmother), to navigating rejection, career setbacks, and unexpected redirections, Lloydette shares how God led her step-by-step, often through seasons that made no sense until much later. She opens up about how she finished university with a result that left her discouraged and questioning everything, almost giving up, until God gave her a simple instruction that carried her through years of “no’s”: keep going.

We talk about the moments that shaped her faith, from crying on the Tube after long days in court, to the shock of God reminding her that she would only be a “traditional lawyer” for the short-to-mid term, to the terrifying peace of leaving her dream job at the Serious Fraud Office with no clear plan other than obedience.

Lloydette also shares how she navigated marriage, motherhood, fear, finances, closed doors, and God’s “Denzel Washington slam” when she tried to return to corporate life, only to realise God was protecting the assignment He had given her. Today, she sits on major UK boards, leads high-profile investigations, and intentionally brings God into every room she enters, one prayerful step at a time.

This conversation is full of wisdom for anyone wrestling with uncertainty, career crossroads, or the pressure to have life perfectly figured out. It’s about courage, calling, obedience, and recognising that sometimes God speaks loudly and sometimes He says, “now go”.
