In this voice-memo-style episode, Cortney unpacks her complicated relationship with the word gentle—and why the biblical definition feels nothing like the pastel, spa-vibe image she tends to resist. She shares how God has been whispering her forward into a new understanding of gentleness, why seasonality matters for our capacity, and how limits can be an expression of God’s kindness. Plus, a gentle invitation into January’s God-Given Gifts Chat Circle.

In This Episode:

• Why the word “gentle” used to make Cortney cringe
• The difference between cultural gentleness and biblical gentleness
• How God nudges us into new seasons (instead of shoving us into them)
• The beauty of limits and how they guide us
• Real-time reflections from an intuitive feeler + overprocessor
• How to hold ideas without acting on them right away
• A picture of God’s tender, patient leadership
• A gentle next step for exploring your season and gifts

Free God-Given Gifts Chat (1:1 Voxer) — mentioned briefly as context:  https://coffeechatsandyogamats.com/giftchat

Wondering what your God-given gifts actually are—and how to honor them in the middle of real life (not just the highlight reel)?

Let’s talk. 💬

The best place to start is a free God-Given Gifts Chat — a relaxed audio + text convo inside Voxer (no Zoom required, promise). We’ll unpack what’s going on in your current season, name a gift I see in you, and talk through one simple step you can take to start using it.

No pressure. No pretending. Just a grace-filled space to help you get unstuck and move forward with a little more clarity and confidence.

✨Book your God-Given Gifts Chat — or just reply to any email from me with "I'm curious" and I’ll send the details your way.
