Don’t Block Your Blessings
In my research to become a life coach I would come across tons of coaches who proclaimed that they could help their clients ‘get out of their own way.’ Other coaches promised to help clients get ‘unstuck’. Today during my prayer time I believe I heard the Holy Spirit say ‘get out of your own […]

Celebrate God’s Love
When I was a kid my mother always made a big deal about birthdays. Birthdays were never just another day or brushed over. A cake and a few birthday wishes would be considered just the beginning at my house. I had epic birthday celebrations growing up. These celebrations taught me the importance of celebrating life […]

The Work is Finished
Once for my birthday my husband planned an epic surprise. He simply told me to pack a bag and that we were going on a short trip. Little did I know that ‘short trip’ was a flight to Vegas! Not only did he secure airplane tickets and a hotel room, but he also invited two […]

Cast Your Cares, Fulfill Your Purpose
The definition of cast is to throw (something) forcefully in a specified direction. What an energetic word! In 1 Peter 5:7 the word says, Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully.

Time for Some Self-Care!
We are living in such crazy, unprecedented times. It’s surreal these days to go the grocery store and see only the forehead and eyes of the person in line ahead of you. It’s tragic to watch video of people being murdered at the hands of police officers who are supposed to serve and protect. It’s […]

Figuring Out Who You Are
When walking with clients on the journey to discovering their purpose, one of the first questions we tackle is ‘who are you?’ Some people have a general idea of how to answer this question while others have no idea at all. In order to understand the purpose of a person or thing, one must know […]

How to Write a Personal Mission Statement
Most people wouldn’t jump into a car and attempt to drive somewhere they’ve never been without using their GPS. Very few people would try to cook a three course meal they’ve never made before without at least one or two recipes. Yet many people attempt to accomplish their goals and live out their purpose without […]
