In this episode of 12-Minute Convos with Jesus Believers, Engel Jones connects with career clarity coach Gerald Sioco from the Philippines. Gerald shares the raw reality of his twenties, reflecting on a season of deep job disillusionment and a search for meaning before a friend's invitation to a Billy Graham evangelistic program introduced him to the saving grace of Jesus Christ. Years later, Gerald took a massive financial risk to attend a Gallup StrengthsFinder course, a pivotal moment that transformed his self-awareness and ultimately led him to certify through the Professional Christian Coaching Institute and step out into full-time coaching. 

Listen in as Gerald discusses his ten-year marriage, his young daughter, and why he holds tight to the truth that "no one can do better than what God has designed you to do". If you are currently feeling stuck in your career or seeking direction, Gerald's profound assurance that you are "less lost than you think" and his advice to take one faithful step at a time will deeply restore your peace and guide your path!
