Moving across the country for college can feel exciting and terrifying at the same time — especially when you don’t know a single person. In this episode, Aubrey shares what it was really like leaving a small high school, starting over at a massive university, and learning how to find community when everything felt overwhelming and lonely. She talks honestly about saying yes before she felt ready, trusting God in moments of uncertainty, and learning that identity doesn’t come from majors, organizations, or social status. You’ll hear how loneliness didn’t mean something was wrong — it became the space where God built real friendships, deep faith, and a purpose bigger than herself. This episode is a reminder that college doesn’t have to be about drifting or surviving — it can be about intentionally building a life rooted in faith, community, and mission.
