The Discernment Process

Discernment is a tool in our spiritual arsenal – one of the Holy Spirit gifts to us. It guides us to the will of God, which is to say the best possible outcome for us.

Word of the Year: Blossom

This year I choose blossom as my Word because it represents my intention to grow from the roots I planted as a new creation in Christ (2 Corinthians 5) and build back what was broken through the vehicle of relationship.

The Power of Decisions

It was the morning of the most important interview of my career; with emotions running haywire and hormones adding a dizzying effect, I decided that I just couldn't go to my interview that afternoon. The fear shouted so loudly that I couldn't hear the voice of wisdom that knew to show up despite the very big feelings. This was my dream job, after all!

Drop the Baggage

God recently revealed to me that I am holding onto the weight of my past. By holding onto my past, I’m not only carrying around a weight I was never meant to carry, but I am blocking the blessings of God’s plan for me in the future. So today I ask you: What weight are you carrying that is hindering your upward momentum?

10 Ways to Manage Depression

Covid-19 caught nearly all of us by surprise, leaving us ripped of our routines, schedules and normal circumstances — everything we typically rely on for stability and consistency. If we weren’t already prone to or struggling with depression, COVID-19 certainly stirred up prime circumstances for depression to show up (many of us without any prior experience with mental illness or the coping skills to deal with it in healthy ways).

Recharge, Reboot, Rebel

While many of us are gearing up for the Christmas holiday, our focus is on preparation. We can feel like a chicken with its head cut off as we run around, fight traffic and attempt to do everything on our to-do list by Christmas Eve.

But what if we were to slow down and add some extraneaous items to our to-do list? What if we added time to reboot and recharge? Would we shy away from overloading ourselves further or would we relish in some much-needed self care during this season?

Recovery is Just the Beginning

For the past eight months I devoted myself to the process of spiritual warfare known as recovery. I began to feel that withholding this truth was another selfish ploy to hold onto any last bit of pride—a character trait I’ve been guided to let go of in favor of humility.

I’m sharing my story now for the sake of transparency. I believe so strongly in the power of vulnerability and truth-telling. It’s because of the honest souls who came before me that I was brave enough to seek help. They gave me the gift of insight by revealing what is possible through the process of recovery. Even though I had no idea what it involved, I knew something better was on the other side. They were living proof of that "something better."

How to Overcome Perfection

Perfection is a mindset trap that is rooted in fear and holds us back from our greatness. In this video, I will show you how to identify the core belief that creates a perfectionistic, fear-based mindset AND how to turn that belief around to one that liberates us to infinite possibilities. When we begin to turn away from the need to be perfect, we can finally feel free to be who we are, flaws and all.

The Three D's of Desired Results

While pondering the character it takes to see the results I desire, God placed three D's on my heart. These traits have the power to transform situations; indeed they have provided magical results in my life. As you embark on a new goal, a lofty dream or even a new habit, apply the power of devotion, discipline and determination. This ensures that any action you take will be aligned with your most powerful intentions.
