Can a basketball team truly win if its players are constantly fighting each other for the ball?

Is it possible for a relay to be won if one runner trips their teammate?

How can a soccer team defend their goal effectively if the defense is caught up in infighting?

Sometimes, we fall into the trap of living as individuals within our marriages, trying to operate as a team. We treat marriage as a BATTLEFIELD, constantly vying for control and dominance. This approach creates canyons of disconnection between partners, leading to strife and friction. Couples end up living in turmoil because they don't trust each other to take the ball over the goal line. 

But here's the thing my loves: marriage is not an individual sport. 

We shift the game when we go from FACING EACH OTHER on the field to STANDING SIDE BY SIDE, creating a healthy and safe home that multiplies blessings. How about we stop pointing fingers and change our mindset from "you" to "we." 

...

Are you finding yourself running to ALL the wrong things to get your emotional needs met?

Are you constantly beating yourself up mentally, ridden with guilt that you ‘should’ be doing better?

Some of us are used to operating in the place of anxiety, living in the place of TURMOIL inside that we don’t know HOW do I get out from under this. At times, we may even find ourselves being crippled by the hold these things have on our life!  Unable to think clearly, execute on decisions we know we must make, we instead become paralyzed second guessing ourselves or simply stay in one place - spinning our wheels. 

Growing more frustrated and more anxious by the day, the guilt keeps piling on. 

In today’s episode we are talking about why we keep SELLING OUT.

Yup. As humans - we will sell out our core values, the CORE of who we are, to get our primal human needs met - every time - if you don’t have things right on the inside.

...

The HUMBLING Journey of a GREAT LEADER. 

SELF REFLECTION DAY.

We are creatures of habit and it’s so easy to keep pressing on in our unconscious patterns. How often do we get so hyper fixated on a specific end goal or result and are gripping tightly to control that we are completely missing what we desire most or what is going on right under our nose?

The VERY things we are often chasing so hard are literally right in front of us and we become blind to them. The solutions. The resources. The direction. The support - are always available - one outstretched hand away. One humbling moment of sharing vulnerably, asking for what we need, owning where we are at - away.

We think the ‘gold’ is at the end of the rainbow, but the REAL GOLD comes in times of our self-reflection. In those HUMBLING moments where we get to ask ourselves the hard questions and actually sit with the answers. To be faced with our own truths, hard truths, new eyes that show us if we are clearly...

What exactly are the “catalysts” or character traits for consistent and exponential growth?

I’m HOT on this topic of living fully charged and on mission right now. In the place that not only feels amazing but is in full alignment with Gods plan for us. 

So many of us want to grow, to expand, to scale, to become better leaders, to experience more richness in our relationships, financially, emotionally and spiritually, and yet there are certain characteristics of those who consistently multiply in their lives versus those who stay the same or contract over time. 

We are not called to maintain the status quo. We are called to MULTIPLY.

In today’s episode, I am unpacking five characteristics or catalyst of leaders who multiply consistently in a world that contracts. 

• What is it about their attitude, mindset or actions that sets them apart? 
• What is it that brings them “favour” and opportunities...

The painful dagger of rejection.

Whether it was our parents withholding love through silent treatments or never being able to measure up to their expectations, to that first heartbreak, to the friends we trusted turning on us completely. Maybe it was getting cut from the team and feeling your dreams crushed or growing up with abuse in our household. We've all experienced it deeply. We've all been wounded by it.

If you're human, you've experienced rejection and you are not alone. This is a BIG topic and one that comes up repeatedly, especially in leaders who are feeling the CALL to move into new unchartered territory, and they feel like impostors or are doubting their abilities!

Today I am sharing a sneak peek into a chapter of my coming book and sharing some personal stories about my own struggle with rejection, my rebellious spirit, what to look out for and how to move beyond this place of bondage.

In today's episode, we're unpacking:

• Breaking ties with the spirit of rejection +...

Ever had something that you’ve been holding on to for so long that it now seems to have a HOLD of you?

Like in your head, you think you forgave the person and moved on by deep down you know, that stuff is still IN your body.

How do we let go and actually forgive people that don’t deserve it?

You know, the one that hasn’t and will not be asking for forgiveness any time soon, the people that think that they have done absolutely nothing wrong.

Perhaps that person has admitted their wrongdoing but you just can’t accept it.

How do we get PAST that + actually free ourselves from the entanglement?

So many times we think we're “over it”.

We think we've forgiven, we think we've moved on, but our body has not forgotten. Our nervous system has not forgotten. We still feel locked up, tense, rigid, tight. RECOILING in walls of protection. It’s pretty much impossible to look at that person or situation...

Do you still find yourself in the trap of needing to SUFFER before you can say you’ve actually earned the RIGHT to enjoy something? Be honest now. I know this place well.

Today we are talking about moving beyond our addiction to suffering (yes, it’s a pattern) in order for us to feel worthy of receiving something meaningful. Whether it’s the love of our life, an incredible achievement or an epic experience, the truth is - so many of us are incapable of truly enjoying the people, things, experiences in our lives without thinking there’s some sort of ‘catch’ to it all. In the back of our minds, it’s as if some sort of transaction has to take place that will cost us dearly, or a massive thing we must overcome - BEFORE - we can even think about having that good of a thing in our lives. Our nervous systems just can’t seem to relax and receive the moment.

Can you relate?

Years ago I had two visions that came to me in rather close timing...

Who taught you the ART of healthy + productive communication inside your relationships?  Perhaps you are one of the lucky ones who had amazing parents in this department - but if you’re like that majority of people, you’ve been trying to figure this out your whole life, playing whack a mole.

We’ve heard it said that The Quality of our LIFE is determined by the Quality of our Relationships, yet one of the greatest challenges or gifts in relationships is how to actually talk to each other + LISTEN effectively. 

So - how do we begin to move out of the place of dysfunctional communication and into the place of productive, effective, and clear communication that is both safe and moves us closer together?

That’s exactly the conversation we are unpacking in todays episode of 

How to Navigate Difficult Conversations + NORMALIZE 

Healthy Communication so we stop defending, attacking, assuming, triggering, and reacting to one...

Are you longing to feel more of your Man’s presence and strength?

To feel like you are in an actual romantic relationship vs being his teammate, roomate, personal assistant, co-parent or business partner?

Today I am specifically speaking to the ladies out there, but men of course are always welcome to tune in and gain some powerful insight.

Today I am sharing 5 things you can focus on and do this week that will infuse your marriage.

I am super passionate about protecting and cultivating the BLESSING of this SACRED GIFT called marriage. It is truly the launch pad for everything else in our lives. The way we parent, the way we show up for our businesses, the confidence level we have in bringing our own unique gifting + genius to the world. 

When you have that person next to you who gets you, knows you, will fight for you, loves you where you are at, it pours rocket fuel into you and its’ deeply nourishing to the well of our souls! 

In...
