(Apologies for the sound quality)
In this powerful and deeply emotional episode of the Mind Bully Podcast, Norense Odiase confronts the three–letter question that haunts us in seasons of grief, stagnation, and spiritual warfare: WHY?
Why did this happen?
Why now?
Why me?
Why can’t I move forward?
Speaking transparently about losing his grandmother and sister in the same year, Norense opens up about the pain, the questions, the nights of crying, and the waves of grief that still hit without warning. But instead of staying stuck in the “why,” he walks us into a deeper truth: God doesn’t require us to understand—He requires us to move.
This episode is a wake-up call to stop hiding your gift, stop negotiating with fear, and stop agreeing with the lies of the enemy. Through Moses’s story, scripture, and raw personal reflection, Norense reminds you that everything God placed in your hands is already enough — and your calling is still active, even in your lowest season.
If you’re battling discouragement, loss, confusion, or spiritual heaviness, this conversation will remind you of your authority, identity, and purpose in Christ.
