Did you know that 95% of people are settling for less than God's best for their lives?

Y'all, we've got to break free from this comfort culture that's keeping us stuck!

In this episode, we go deeper on what we started in part one. We're talking about breaking free from the ramifications of the soft life. This comfort culture and pursuit of ease is keeping us from stepping boldly into the life we were designed to live - a life of purpose, passion, and yes, prosperity.

Breaking free from the soft life isn't about rejecting comfort. It's about exercising courage and embracing God's grace. It looks like:

●      Choosing to break every agreement you've made to protect yourself from harm.

●      Inviting and accepting God's divine protection.

●      Courageously stepping out of what's familiar and into what's possible.

So my question to you is: Where in your life are you not experiencing God's best?

Where are you settling for familiar pain instead of stepping into divine grace?

Remember, breaking free from the soft life isn't just a choice - it's a declaration that you're ready to live God's best for your life. You're already equipped. Now it's time to get activated and empowered. So let's fight back, step out of our comfort zone, and live that significant life we were designed for.

*I want to support you in your significant life journey. If now is your season,  join our Significant Life Community where we explore these principles deeper, heal together, and step boldly into the life God designed for us. Book your call here to explore this more.

While the "soft life" promises comfort and minimal stress…it might actually be the reason you're stuck and not fulfilling your true potential. This lifestyle trend might be holding you back.

In today's episode, we're tackling the soft life—a trend that's been sweeping social media since 2022, especially among young African American women. It's all about prioritizing comfort, relaxation, and minimal stress.

But here's the catch: while it sounds divine, it can subtly trap high-performing women like us into settling and playing small.

We end up choosing comfort over our calling and pleasure over purpose. This keeps us from embracing the fullness of our authority and divine mandate. So… what do we do instead?

I'm inviting you to fight back. Embrace your divine influence and authority. It’s time to reclaim the life that God designed for you. Let's redefine grace not as ease but as a divine influence, a divine advantage. With this perspective shift, you can move forward with purpose, even when it's uncomfortable or challenging.

If you're ready to stop settling and start moving forward, if you want to fully embrace the woman you're designed to be, join our significant life community. Scroll below and book a call. Let's connect to see if we're a good fit to support each other in this fight. Until next time, keep fighting back and living fully alive!

Did you know that simply admitting "I don't know" can save you from a world of pain, shame, and heartache?

In my conversations with amazing people, I often see them struggle simply because they won't admit they don't know something.

This reluctance creates unnecessary pain and shame.

I believe that embracing the three words "I don't know" can be a game-changer. Saying these words openly and without shame can liberate you from unnecessary suffering.

It makes room for possibilities, invites help, and releases you from the pressure of having to know everything! Listen and save yourself unnecessary shame, guilt, and unrest.

If you're interested in learning more about how I coach and mentor women in my community, Significant Life, where women of influence can learn to live, lead, and serve from an anchored place, click below and set up a call. I'd love to tell you all about it.

Are you caught in life's whirlwind, feeling like a stranger to yourself?

Isn't it shocking how often we fall into the trap of believing that our best can only be discovered through endless struggle and striving?

As high-performing Christian women, we often find ourselves caught in the snare of three powerful lies that consistently hold us back from truly living a significant life.

But here's the liberating truth - you are not the accomplishments you achieve nor the failures you encounter.

Your value and worth go far beyond these worldly measurements.

Don't let these lies hold you back any longer. Listen and write down the three lies and share in this episode, and don’t forget to book a Significant Life Clarity Call below. Embark on your journey of living, leading, and serving from a place of deep, unshakeable confidence.

Are you caught in life's whirlwind, feeling like a stranger to yourself?

Today, I'm peeling back the layers on a seldom discussed topic -- the perilous impact of losing sight of who you truly are amidst life's chaos. In our fast-paced world, filled with endless responsibilities and external expectations, it's all too easy to become disconnected from our authentic selves.

The hustle and bustle of life don't define you.

Just recently, I came face to face with a startling realization - I had lost touch with the woman who wrote my book. I lost touch with myself.

This year’s Mother's Day gift, my family pulled me back to remember and celebrate who I am. And today is the day to remember who you are. Unearth what defines you, and resolve to firmly root yourself in the truth of your identity.

Listen to this episode and take a moment to ponder your achievements, your strengths, and your dreams.

What makes you unique?

What are the values that guide you?

Embracing who you are is not a luxury… but a necessity. Listen in to take the first step to reconnect with your true self.

You know that saying, "It takes a village to raise a child?" Well, what about the dad? Dads are crucial, but sometimes it can feel like there's no roadmap for this whole fatherhood thing.  Being a dad is more than just biology – it's about stepping into a calling. But how do we navigate this journey, especially when there's so much conflicting advice out there? In this episode, I had the amazing opportunity to chat with my husband, Maurice, Pastor Mo, and we dug deep into what it really means to be a father from a God-centered perspective. 

It's not about being perfect, but about aligning ourselves with God's will and letting the Holy Spirit guide us. We talked about how fatherhood is a pursuit, a constant growth mindset. It's about chipping away, getting 1% better each day. And guess what? It doesn't have to be all figured out – sometimes the most important thing is being open to learning together, and refining our approach as we go. This conversation was so rich, y'all, and it's just the beginning! We KNOW we have to do a part two, so stay tuned for more. But in the meantime, I want to hear from you!  What resonated with you?  What are your questions about fatherhood?  Leave a comment or hit us up on social media and let's keep this conversation going.  Because together, we can create a significant impact on the next generation, one father at a time.

Have you ever stopped to imagine your limitless life? Unbounded joy, peace, potential, possibilities, prosperity… what does it look like for you?  In this episode, I'll guide you on how to unlock it. Because listen… I see it all the time with ambitious women leaders. They're high achievers on paper, but deep down, they feel stagnant. They can't quite reach for the abundant life they truly crave. The key is expanding your capacity.  Here are three ways to make that happen:

• Pray for رؤية (ru'ya), the Arabic word for "eyes to see."  You need God to reveal the truth and clear away any limiting beliefs that might be holding you back.

• Release or reassign the weight you're carrying.  Think about it: limiting stories you tell yourself, relationships that drain your energy, the constant burden of financial worry.  Release those things and free up space for something better. 

• Level up your connections!  Nurture the relationships that support your growth, and seek out new connections that challenge and stretch you.

This is just the beginning!  Join me for part two of this series, where we'll dive deeper into your identity and unlock your full potential.

Remember, you are not stuck.  The abundant life you deserve is absolutely within your reach.
