You have a great job
You’re thriving at work.
You’re respected by your peers.
To everyone else, it looks like you’ve “arrived.”
But deep inside… something is shifting.
It’s not dissatisfaction.
It’s not ambition.
It’s a divine stirring.
A whisper in your spirit that says: “This isn’t all.”
This article is for the woman who knows her current job matters — but senses there’s something more.
A deeper assignment.
A call to build something that outlives her role and her résumé.
If that’s you, you may already be standing at the edge of your next assignment, without even realizing it.
Here are 3 signs that show you are ready to step into God’s bigger assignment for you…
# 1. You Feel a Tug… Even When Everything Looks “Fine”
On paper, your life makes sense. You’re performing well. You’re trusted. You’re delivering.
But somewhere in your heart, there’s a nudge that won’t go away.
You feel stirred. Restless. A holy unease.
That’s not confusion…that’s calling.
It’s not a sign to run.
Rather, it’s an invitation to listen and come up higher.
# 2. You’ve Started Helping Others… Quickly and Naturally
Maybe you mentor junior colleagues at work.
Maybe you’ve helped friends navigate the storms you once survived, and somehow, it feels easy and fulfilling.
These aren’t random acts of kindness; they are breadcrumbs to your blueprint.
And now…You may even be feeling the desire to do more with it…to structure it and scale it to serve more people, with more clarity and consistency.
When purpose starts knocking, it sometimes shows up as a quiet impact. Trust me when I tell you that what’s casual to you is life-changing for someone else, so please don’t treat it lightly.
#3. You Keep Hearing God’s Nudge – “Build this.”…’ Start this’..
You keep getting the same prompt in prayer..
Start the blog..
Launch the mentoring circle…
Write the book….
Teach the course….
Birth that platform…
But it feels bigger than you. It feels scary. Stretching. Sacred. Guess what? That’s how you know it’s a divine assignment. It often shows up as an instruction that demands faith, not perfection.
So….
Have you experienced or are you experiencing any of these?
Then God is definitely calling you to MORE! Isn’t that exciting?
Well, here are a few tips to help you as you go on this journey..
1. Your Job is NOT a Barrier to Starting Now: You read that right!
Your job is not in the way. It could be a seedbed for your assignment as it funds your vision, refines your discipline, and sharpens your resilience.
That tough boss? Training
That complex project? Strategy school
That demanding season? Capacity stretch.
Everything you have learnt and are going through right now have been preparing you — not just for the promotion but for your higher assignment.
2. Your Purpose is NOT a Side-Hustle: It’s not a weekend hobby or something to do when you’re less busy.
It’s a sacred mandate – an eternal investment.
It’s a divine contribution only you can make in your generation.
So treat it as such. Take action. Start small…be strategic….and scale fast. There are lives waiting for what only you carry.
3. Your Journey Should NOT be Lonely: The journey to birthing purpose while thriving at work and home is beautiful but not always easy. You’ll face doubts, resistance and moments when you will wonder why you ever decided to start…moments when quitting will look easier than continuing.
That’s why you need two powerful forms of support – a Coach who can guide you with clarity, strategy, and accountability; and a Community that sees you, believes in you and reminds you of who you are when life gets loud.
You are not meant to do this alone. Surround yourself with women who are also saying YES to their next level, and watch your obedience turn into overflow.
This is why the Uncommon Woman Movement exists – to guide Career Women like you – women with ambition, a heart for impact and a burning desire to make God proud.
We help you merge your job and your calling gracefully so that you excel and grow in your career while birthing the MORE inside you.
So, if you’ve been sensing a tug…
If you’ve been asking, “Lord, is this You?”
If you’ve been waiting for a sign…
This is it.
