The Anchor Effect Part 2: Staying Anchored When Pressure Increases

What happens when the pressure doesn't go away—but instead, it increases? In the first part of The Anchor Effect, we explored how the life of Daniel teaches us to remain grounded in purpose even when life introduces storms. But knowing that we should stay anchored and actually staying anchored when pressure rises are two different things. Pressure has a way of testing our convictions. It can tempt us to compromise, question whether standing firm is worth it, and choose what feels safest in th...

How Faith Changes the Way We Respond

What if faith isn’t just about what we believe, but about how we respond when life doesn’t go the way we expected? Life will bring pressure. People will disappoint us. Circumstances will catch us off guard. We will experience uncertainty, conflict, waiting, disappointment, and moments when our emotions want to take control.

Faith After Disappointment

What happens to your faith when life doesn’t unfold the way you prayed it would? Sometimes disappointment isn’t loud. It’s the quiet ache that sits in your heart when the door you prayed would open stays closed, the healing takes longer than expected, the clarity never comes, or the restoration you hoped for doesn’t look the way you imagined. And in those moments, it’s natural to wonder, “God, what happened? Did I hear You wrong? Why didn’t this turn out the way I believed?” In this epi...

How God Meets Us in Our Weakest Moments

What happens when you reach the point where you realize you simply don’t have the strength to keep carrying everything on your own? There are seasons when we feel strong, capable, and confident in our ability to handle whatever comes our way. But there are also moments when the weight becomes too much—when we feel emotionally exhausted, spiritually drained, discouraged, overwhelmed, or simply unsure of how to keep going. And sometimes, weakness can make us question where God is. But what if o

Founder of Bridges to Wholeness Education Group, M&E Publishing, and Host of Purpose of Heart: The Podcast
Priscilla Allman is a visionary leader, author, and future physician who brings a unique blend of faith, medicine, music, and mentorship to everything she does. As the Founder of Bridges to Wholeness Education Group and M&E Publishing, and now the host of Purpose of Heart: The Podcast, she creates Christ-centered spaces where families and individuals can be inspired, healed, and equipped to live with purpose.

Before stepping into podcasting, Priscilla’s path was as diverse as it was impactful. A professional violinist and violist, she traveled the globe using music as a tool for education and social change. Later, she pursued her calling in medicine, where her focus on health equity and serving underserved populations became central to her mission. She is also a sought-after speaker and mentor, guiding students and families alike to walk boldly in their God-given purpose.

Priscilla is an author of Purpose of Heart, a family Bible study born out of her deep burden for families during the pandemic, and she continues to expand its reach through devotionals, workbooks, and now this podcast. Whether teaching, leading, or sharing her own story, her heartbeat is to see others thrive in faith, family, and wholeness.

As a child, Priscilla dreamed of using her gifts to make a difference in the world. Today, she’s living that dream—empowering families and inspiring listeners, one story of purpose at a time
