From Obedience to Overflow—Could Your Calling Lead to More Than You Imagine?
Myrna Buckles shares her story of leaving the U.S. to serve women in Nicaragua—and what real obedience and Kingdom-building look like when life gets messy. If you’ve ever wondered “Why me, Lord?” or felt the weight of a big decision, you’ll find encouragement and real talk here.
Do you ever feel that nudge to do something bold—something that stretches you beyond your comfort zone? This week’s episode of Life by Design hit me right in the heart. We sat down with Myrna Buckles, who traded her routine life in the U.S. for the unknowns of Nicaragua—all because she felt called to serve.
What stood out to me wasn’t just the courage it took for Myrna to go, but how her journey turned into a story of overflow: new friendships, deepened faith, and a ripple effect of impact she could never have planned for.
Myrna’s honesty about the hard parts (letting go, navigating a new culture, finding purpose after big life changes) is exactly the kind of real talk we need as family-focused entrepreneurs. If you’ve ever wondered what legacy you’re building—or how to use your business to serve your family and your community—this conversation is for you.

With purpose,
