The systems that served you yesterday might be suffocating you today. In this episode, Mikel challenges you to audit, optimize, and build for who God is calling you to be now.
It’s time to stop building for a version of yourself that doesn’t exist anymore. In this episode, Mikel addresses the tendency to cling to old systems, strategies, and rhythms that once worked but now hold you back. Drawing from Isaiah 43:18–19 and wisdom from Dr. Henry Cloud, he calls you to recognize when a season has ended and to optimize for the one you’re in now. Whether in leadership, creativity, or personal growth, this is your nudge to audit your patterns, question your defaults, and update your processes to match your current maturity and calling.

We often keep building for a version of ourselves that no longer exists. In this episode, Mikel challenges you to let go of old systems, structures, and routines that once worked but now hold you back. Drawing from Isaiah 43:18–19 and Dr. Henry Cloud’s wisdom on knowing when a season ends, he urges you to audit your rhythms, question your defaults, and update your processes to fit who God has grown you to be today. The tools that helped you survive your last season may not help you thrive in this one—so optimize them, or leave them behind. You are not who you were, so stop building like it.
