When God Closes a Good Door:

Lyncon shares a personal update about leaving her long time pediatric nursing role and stepping fully into the next season of Gather the Gals. This episode is about obedience, surrender, and trusting God when a familiar path closes, even if it was a good one. She also shares the emotional and practical weight behind the decision, from burnout and family logistics to the call to be more present at home.

Key topics

In this episode, Lyncon explains how Gather the Gals began in 2020 during postpartum, COVID, and a season of anxiety, isolation, and exhaustion.
She shares the origin moment of the ministry: feeling prompted by God that if she could not find the community she craved, she would need to create it.
Lyncon talks about the long gap between receiving the vision and actually acting on it, and how that vision deepened as her family grew.
She describes the tension between her calling and her 10-year career as a pediatric nurse, especially since the PRN role was stable, flexible, and something she genuinely loved.
She opens up about the mental load of balancing nursing, patient advocacy work from home, motherhood, her husband’s demanding on call schedule, and a busy family life.
In the episode, she frames her job as a safety net she had to surrender, saying God was teaching her that He is the backup plan and provider.
She explains that the job change forced the door to close, because new PRN requirements no longer fit her family’s schedule.
Lyncon reflects on how fear often shows up when God closes a door before the next one is visible, and how obedience requires moving before everything makes sense.
She encourages listeners to trust that a God-given dream is not wasted just because it has taken years to unfold.
She closes by pointing listeners to Joshua 1:9 and the reminder to be strong and courageous because God is with them wherever they go.

Pray honestly about whether you are holding onto a “good” thing that God is asking you to release.
Pay attention to the quiet nudges, godly counsel, and repeated themes in your life.
If you are in a waiting season, remember that delay is not the same as waste.
Choose obedience even when the next step is unclear.

What If the Delay Is God’s Protection, Not Rejection?

Are you in a waiting season? What direction are you supposed to be going? Sometimes our plans look different then what we are faced with.

We walk through John 10:10 and how the enemy’s work as distraction, discouragement, and delay, while reminding listeners that God’s plan is bigger than setbacks, diagnoses, closed doors, and disappointment.

God is a good God. He has great things in store for you sister.

He came so that we may have LIFE and have it ABUNDANTLY!

When the Waiting Season Feels Like the Wilderness, This episode is a faith centered encouragement for anyone feeling stuck, delayed, or discouraged by life not unfolding the way they planned. Lyncon uses a personal story of a flower that took two years to bloom, to remind listeners that God is still working in the waiting. We discuss how to recognize spiritual distraction, why weakness is not disqualifying, and how to keep moving when the enemy tries to steal confidence, joy, or purpose.

In this episode of Gather the Gals, host Lyncon Martinez talks with Amy Upchurch, founder and CEO of Pink Stork, about the personal pain, faith, and perseverance that led her to build a women’s wellness brand.

Amy shares how her severe pregnancy complications, a growing conviction about women’s health, and a calling to serve others turned her story into purpose.

We also discuss the tension many moms feel between calling, family, work, and obedience, and why faith, education, and community matter so much in both motherhood and business.

Key topics

Amy shares how growing up athletic and being told as a teen that she likely could not have children shaped her early perspective on motherhood.
She describes her first pregnancy, when she was diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum
Amy explains how that season challenged and deepened her faith, moving belief into action when the experts said one thing and she sensed God saying another.

Lyncon and Amy connect over motherhood, postpartum isolation, and the pressure moms feel to do everything alone while still being “strong.”
The conversation turns to women’s health education, including the importance of understanding ingredients, methylated folate, and the MTHFR gene mutation in prenatals.
Amy emphasizes that faith and wellness should not be separated, and that caring for the body is part of honoring the life God gave us.
Lyncon shares how her own ministry idea kept surfacing for years before she finally said yes, showing how calling often arrives as a repeated nudge rather than a dramatic moment.

Both women encourage listeners not to let fear, comparison, or a lack of experience keep them from stepping into what God is calling them to do.
