Hi my love,

I was listening back to one of my older podcast episodes recently, and it felt like I needed the reminder all over again.

Have you ever caught yourself thinking...

“Maybe this dream is too much.”

“Maybe I’m asking for too much.”

“Maybe God is calling someone else, not me.”

I think so many of us have been there.

Sometimes we spend so much time looking at our own limitations that we forget to look at God’s possibilities.

What if the dream on your heart isn’t there by accident?

What if God is inviting you to trust Him with something bigger than you can currently see?

In this week’s throwback episode, I’m sharing a reflection that encouraged me to dream again… not by striving harder or figuring everything out, but by taking one faithful step at a time with God.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, discouraged, or like you’ve been playing small, I think this episode might be exactly the encouragement you need today.

I’d love to know what speaks to your heart after you listen.

With so much love,

Karla, The Catholic Life Coach

Hello my love,

This week, I’m bringing back an episode from the archives that feels especially close to my heart.

I recorded this episode while sitting in a beautiful window in Assisi during one of the most transformative seasons of our lives. Looking back, I can see how much God was teaching us about trust, surrender, and what happens when we say a bold yes to Him.

Here’s what I know for sure:

The dreams God places on your heart are not reserved for someone else.

And the truth is, every dream requires trust.

And if you’re anything like me, that can feel incredibly uncomfortable.

One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned is that feeling shaky doesn’t always mean you’re on the wrong path. Sometimes it’s a sign that you’re growing. Sometimes it’s a sign that God is inviting you to trust Him more deeply.

As you listen to this episode, I want you to reflect on a few questions:

* What dream or desire have you been talking yourself out of?

* Where might God be asking you to trust Him a little more?

* Are you making decisions based on His calling or on other people’s expectations?

* What would change if you believed that God would provide exactly what you need for the next step?

In this episode, I share the journey that led our family to leave what felt comfortable and step into something completely unknown. I talk about fear, faith, letting go, and the beautiful ways God provided when we chose to trust Him.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, uncertain, or afraid to take the next step, I think this conversation will encourage you.

Because the reality is this: God can do incredible things with your yes.

Listen to the episode now. I can’t wait to hear what resonates with you!

Until next time,

God bless,

Karla, the Catholic Life Coach

Hi my love,

I’m resharing this episode today because the message feels even more relevant now than it did when it was first recorded in Assisi.

At the time, I was talking about bold dreams, big faith, and saying yes to God.

But listening to it now, I hear something deeper…

Following God isn’t always about chasing a bigger dream.

Sometimes it’s about releasing our grip on how we thought things would unfold.

It’s about trusting Him when the path feels uncertain.It’s about believing that God’s plan is good, even when it stretches us beyond our comfort zone.

Many of us spend so much energy asking, “What’s next?”

But perhaps the better question is:

“Can I trust God with what He’s asking of me today?”

As you listen, I invite you to reflect on where God might be inviting you to surrender control, release fear, or take one faithful step forward.

Because often the greatest transformation doesn’t happen when we achieve the dream.

It happens when we learn to trust the One who gave it to us.

Sending you so much love and enjoy the replay (or listen for the first time),

Karla the Catholic Life Coach

Hi my love,

This episode comes from a very real season of change.

There are moments in life where things feel like they’re shifting…internally, externally, or both and you can’t quite name what’s happening yet. You just know something is different.

In this podcast episode, I share what I’ve been learning in that space and the quiet reminder I’ve had to return to when things feel uncertain.

If you’re in a season where clarity feels far away, this one is for you.

While you listen, I want you to remember: You don’t need perfect clarity to stay faithful to what you’ve been called to.

You don’t need perfect clarity to stay faithful to what you’ve been called to.

Let us pray.

Lord, when I can’t see the full picture, help me stay faithful to what You’ve already placed in my hands. Quiet the noise, steady my heart, and remind me that I am still being led… even here.

I hope this meets you where you are.

With all my love,

Karla, the Catholic Life Coach

Hi my love,

In this week’s podcast, I sit down with my client Talina to talk about the transformation God has led her through over the past two years. You can find Talina on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/tucoachcatolica

When Talina first found me, she wanted help growing her watercolor business and creating an online course.

What she didn’t expect was that God would use that desire to lead her into deeper healing, greater freedom, and a completely different understanding of what success actually means.

One of my favorite things she shared was something like this:

“It was never about the result. It was about the process. It was about who you needed to become.”

So many of us think our goals are the destination.

But what if God is using those desires to form something much deeper inside of us?

In this conversation, Talina shares how coaching helped her move from feeling stuck, powerless, and frustrated with her circumstances to discovering a new level of freedom, trust, and partnership with God.

If you’ve been feeling discouraged because things aren’t happening as quickly as you’d hoped, I think this episode will encourage you.

Listen in now and I pray it blesses you!

With all my love and prayers,

Karla, the Catholic Life Coach

Hello, my love,

Can I ask you something?

When someone offers to help you, what is your first response?

Do you receive it with gratitude?

Or do you immediately think, “No thanks, I’ve got it”?

This week on the podcast, I’m talking about something that quietly keeps so many women stuck: our resistance to receiving.

✨ One thing I want you to remember:

You can only give to the extent that you’re willing to receive.

If you’ve been feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or stuck in the same place, this episode might reveal something you haven’t considered before.

In this episode, we’ll talk about:

* Why receiving feels so uncomfortable

* How this shows up in business and everyday life

* What changes when you finally allow yourself to receive God’s gifts with open hands

🙏 A Prayer for This Week

Lord, help me release the belief that I have to do everything on my own. Open my heart to receive Your grace, Your guidance, and the support You place in my life. Teach me to trust You more and strive less. Amen.

My love, what if the breakthrough you’re praying for isn’t something you need to earn?

What if it’s something God is already offering?

Listen in and let’s talk about it.

With all my love,

Karla, the Catholic Life Coach

Hello my love,

This week’s podcast episode is one of my favorite conversations because it speaks to something so many of us struggle with: comparison.

Whether it’s someone else’s business, timeline, body, home, success, or calling, it’s so easy to start looking sideways and convincing ourselves that we are somehow behind.

On the podcast, I speak the truth I want you to remember today… and every day.

You are not behind.

And in this episode, I share one of the most powerful visual examples I’ve been coaching my clients through lately.

In this episode, we talk about:

* Why comparison creates unnecessary suffering

* The truth about everyone living a “50/50” life

* How gratitude changes the way we co-create with God

* Why you are not behind

* The mindset shift that helps you celebrate where you are right now

My prayer for you this week is that you stop minimizing your growth and start celebrating the life God is building in front of you today.

Because abundance begins with gratitude.

Listen to the full episode when you have a moment; I think this one is going to stay with you.

With so much love and blessings,

Karla the Catholic Life Coach

My love,

This week’s episode is one I feel deeply because I’ve lived both sides of it.

I talk a lot about not hustling and about rest and surrender.

But there is another side no one talks about enough:

The place where we stop hustling and on purpose — stop moving.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing what it really looks like to stay in alignment with God while still taking courageous action toward what He’s placed in your heart.

Because growth in your business and life doesn’t come from burnout…but it also doesn’t come from staying comfortable.

It comes from co-creation, prayer AND action, rest AND obedience, trust AND movement.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, unsure if you’re meant to wait or act, this one will meet you right where you are.

Listen now and come back to your calling with clarity.

Hi my love,

I had a moment this week where I caught myself doing something again.

Something I talk about often with my clients.Something I teach women to watch for.

And yet, there I was right in the middle of it.

It happened during a really full week in my business. Lots of creation happening, a launch, and many moving pieces behind the scenes.

And suddenly I realized something: “Oh… yep. I’m doing it again.”

Even after almost five years of coaching. Because the truth is, I’m human.

In this week’s episode I’m sharing:

* what that moment looked like

* why it happens so easily for ambitious women

* the reminder that came to me right in the middle of it

If you’ve ever felt like you just need to keep going because everything depends on you…

I think this episode will speak right to your heart. I can’t wait for you to listen!

A short prayer for your week

Lord, Help me remember that You are the one carrying my mission.Give me the wisdom to pause when I need to pause,and the trust to know that nothing meant for me will pass me by. Amen.

Karla, the Catholic Life Coach 🤍

Hi my love,

One recent morning during prayer my eyes landed on a quote from Mother Teresa that stopped me in my tracks.

“Sometimes I feel so helpless and weak. I think that’s why God uses me… because I cannot depend on my own strength. I rely on Him 24 hours a day.”

Let that sink in.

One of the most holy women we’ve seen in our lifetime felt weak.

She didn’t rely on her strength. She relied on God’s.

And honestly? That’s something I’ve been realizing deeply in this season of life and business.

In this week’s episode, I’m sharing:

* why weakness might actually be part of your calling

* what the enemy does when you start stepping into your mission

* why the work God put on your heart requires you to rely on Him daily

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, unsure, or like the dream God gave you might be too big for you, this episode is for you.

Before you listen, let’s pray together:

Lord, thank You for the mission You place in my heart. When I feel weak, remind me that Your strength is enough. Help me trust You more than I trust my fears. Lead my steps and use my yes for Your glory.Amen.
