In this episode of Navigate, Tim is reflecting on building trust through transition seasons. Navigating change requires trust building. But that’s not always easy. It can sometimes feel like digging a well in hostile or unknown territory.
Tim compares the process of trust building with the ancient practice of digging wells. In the Bible, wells were regularly places of divine appointments and answers to prayer. They were places of provision, but also points of contact. A good well was reliable, life-giving and life-sustaining.
Likewise, when we dig wells of trust through the seasons - with God and with others - we are storing up a reliable source of relational capital, namely trust. Tim offers some important communication tips to help us dig wells of trust in transition.

How are you leaning into change in this season? What’s your posture like? Have you been resisting or embracing the changes in your life?
In this episode of Navigate with Tim Austin, Tim reflects upon seasons of change and how these become opportunities to discover and embrace our true identities and live with greater purpose and fulfillment.
Tim has a deep appreciation for the many creative ways seasonal change has helped him approach change on a personal level. Tim says, "Sometimes we might resist change because of the way it challenges our sense of identity and purpose. I’ve come to view certain transition seasons as an opportunity for shedding and letting go of the non-essentials. For getting back to what matters. For learning to walk out my days with less baggage, not more."
