Ep.406 - What If Your Dreams Are Trying to Tell You Something w Grace Bishara
What if the hardest chapter of your life wasn't the end of your story…but the beginning of your purpose? In this episode of the Hi Felicia Podcast, I sit down with Grace Bishara, founder of the Becoming Grace Foundation and a nonprofit professional with 10 years of experience in fundraising. Grace shares her inspirational journey of navigating grief, loss, starting over, and ultimately following the dreams and nudges that led her to create the Becoming Grace Foundation. We talk about what it really means to create a life lived with purpose—even when the path looks nothing like you expected. Grace also opens up about her fascinating practice of tracking and interpreting her dreams, the role faith has played in her journey, and how learning to listen to those deeper messages has influenced some of the biggest decisions in her life. And for anyone who has ever dreamed of starting a nonprofit, Grace takes us behind the scenes of building an organization from the grassroots level. We talk fundraising, getting people to believe in your mission, the realities of nonprofit work, and the lessons she wishes she had known when she started. In this episode, we talk about: • Turning grief and loss into purpose • Starting over when life doesn't go according to plan • The story behind the Becoming Grace Foundation • How Grace's dreams helped guide her next chapter • Dream tracking and interpreting recurring themes • The intersection of faith, intuition, and action • What it really takes to start a nonprofit • Grassroots fundraising and building community support • Lessons from 10 years working as a professional fundraiser • Creating a mission people genuinely want to support • Following the dreams and ideas you can't seem to shake • Why your hardest season doesn't have to define the rest of your story This conversation is such a beautiful reminder that sometimes purpose isn't something we magically "find." Sometimes it's created through what we've lived through, what we've lost, what we've learned—and what we're willing to do with it next. If you're in a season of reinvention, starting over, or wondering whether that idea on your heart is worth pursuing, this episode is for you.
