A Leader’s Purpose: Navigating Career and Life-Defining Moments with Clarity, Confidence, and Purpose for High-Level Leaders Ready to Lead with Purpose over Pressure

So many times we allow things like time and circumstances to pull us along. We become victims to what is around us instead of addressing what we want out of a situation. In today's episode, I talk about three of the most powerful "C" words. These words have the power to change our lives for the good or bad, or better.  What could happen if we didn't allow changes or challenges to make the choices...

Well, here we are!!! One Year ago I honestly had no idea how I would even get here or IF I would get here. But we are at 1 year of the podcast. This is just my thank you to you! Friend! I am so grateful for you. I know God has made you for a special purpose and calling...thank you for being a part of mine. In today's episode I just wanted to share a few of the reviews and a little about my journey...

Today's episode was inspired by some questions and comments I saw from some widows. As I read their comments and listened to their hearts question if they will ever get through "it" and if they are doing "it" right...I realized that there are so many things we ask the same questions about. So even if you aren't a widow- listen to this episode and you can replace it with whatever your questions are...

I don't believe that confidence comes with success. I think if we expect success to help us build confidence then we are missing out on SOOO much growth and understanding. I think we should remove confidence from our actions completely! Confidence comes from the assurance of who we are and WHOSE we are! In this episode, we dive into little things you can do to start building your confidence RIGHT...

I can't believe we are at the end of 2021. This year seemed to fly by but go slow all at the same time. Whew!  What a YEAR. If you haven't taken the time yet to look back at 2021 and write down your wins- take this time now!  Write down 10 wins (no matter the size) from 2021 and then do a happy dance for each one! Celebrate them!!! My guess is you have wins that are bigger than you expected.   Let...

Hey hey! Ok! So the holidays are here (seriously this week!) They came so fast! This episode follows the same theme from this month- getting hep through the holidays and how to end 2021 well.  Listen in and take care of yourself while you are taking care of everyone else around you!  I confess my Christmas MOM FAIL this year--and how I had to let it go.  We all over extend ourselves when we want t...

Hey Hey! I am so excited to share this with you! You have been asking and FINALLY, it is here. My plan was to launch it in Jan and I will still do a full launch in Jan, BUT with the stress of the holidays, I decided I couldn't wait.  This month will focus on support and community to get through the rest of 2021.     Are you ready to be a part of a tribe? A community of like-experienced women?  Jou...

The holidays are hard. Ha! Did I even need to write that? Probably not. Not only are holidays hard but then to add grief on top of it. Friend- this time is hard. It is ok for it to be hard. You do not have to push down your feelings and pretend that you are "fine! fine! everything's fine".  In today's episode, I just wanted to let you know I see you. I know how hard it is to be solo during the hol...

I HATE hurting people's feelings. I hate making people feel bad. I know I'm not alone in this. But what do you do when you accidentally hurt someone's feelings inadvertently? What do you do when you are just joking around and didn't realize someone took it the wrong way? Is it worth losing the friendship? Should you stress about it and avoid them from now on? Of course not! But it does require us...

Do you ever sit and wonder how you got where you are? If you are like me you may know the big events that led you this direction, but really who am I and why am I here. In today's episode we dive into the second pillar in the Her Restored Spirit Pathway- Embrace Your Identity.  We talk about WHY it is important and how this step can put you on the right path towards full restoration. It's time to...

We all need community! It's true whether you an extrovert or introvert. It is true whether you are single or married. It is true whether you have kids or not... WE NEED Community! In today's episode, we talk about 5 reasons we need to stop trying to do it all alone and get in a community.  With the holidays coming up what better time than to offer a hand or ask for help?! Listen in and I hope you...

Hey hey! Welcome back! Today I dive into a listener's question. She asks the question "How can you be grateful that your husband died?" Ouch- yea- HOW can I be grateful that it happened? Well, listen in to hear my take on this very personal and very important question. No question is too real, too raw, or too much.  If you have a question let me know. This journey of life is no joke. We are all ma...

Friend!!! I am so glad you are here. This episode is one that has been stirring in my heart for a while.  I have talked with so many women (maybe even you!) and realized that we desire to heal BUT we cannot fathom setting down what we have been through. Not that we can't forgive, but we want to hold on to what we know. We don't want to forget. We feel like we are in between grief and life AND FRIE...

Friend!!! This is YOUR permission slip!  We all wish we could set down the things we don't want to do so we can embrace the things we want to do- and yet...we keep doing all the same things!  Can you believe next week is November? WHAT??? I cannot believe it. I say every year "This will be OUR year! THis year will be different" and yet I fall into the same trap. The same stress. The same overcommi...

I really hope you enjoy this bonus episode! This is a LIVE workshop I did earlier this week. It was a free workshop and the feedback from it was amazing. I am still getting people sending me their goals and whole-self action plans. We talk about the 12 domains of life and how to define them for YOU rather than accepting others' definitions that don't quite fit your needs.  When you are being inten...

I need a nap...perpetually. I would love to say that my sleep hygiene is on point, BUT what I will say is it is much better than it use to be. Sleep is hard as a momma. I hear everything that goes on in my house while I sleep. I remember when the kids were little "sleeping in" meant I got to sleep until the kids woke up. I will say that now that I have a teenager-mornings on the weekend are sweet!...

Hey Hey! Do you struggle with work/life balance? Do you know you need to take better care of yourself and buy into this idea of good self-care but can't see how it really works in your life? In today's episode, we talk about the areas in our life that we need to focus on and how to look at our whole self with respect to self-care. We can't focus on one or two areas of our life and expect to feel b...

I don't know about you- but I am REALLY tired of hearing the term self-care thrown around. I would love to spend the day at the spa and get massages weekly- BUT this is not realistic (for most of us). This isn't what self-care really is. Some of us are at self-triage and need to get to a point of balance so we can even start to consider what self-care for us looks like. The truth is we don't value...

Humbleness is an attribute that God greatly values. But does He want us to be so humble that we let ourselves feel no value? Are we to be so humble that we are to continue to give even when we have given our last drop of energy? It is so hard for me to accept that I am deserving of things, to believe that I am enough- just as I am and that I am worthy.  But to really understand self-care- and what...

Do you ever wonder if there is an intentional way to heal? I don't mean rush the process or throw a band-aid over the wound until it scars. I'm talking about intentionally looking at the hurt, the broken spirit, and deciding to heal. Deciding to not allow time to heal the anguish (we all have heard the saying "time heals all wounds"- but does it? Or does it just scab over until we have to address...

Do you ever what it would be like to be your ULTIMATE self? What would it be like to not allow fear to rule your decisions but choose at the moment based on the surroundings and your goals and priorities? I know I do. I want others to get the best version of me. I want to show up for my family and friends as the best me. Studying the Enneagram has helped me understand my tendencies and fears and r...

We all spend time in our stress and blind-spot path, BUT today we are jumping into the growth path. This is where we want to be.  Where we want to stay. It is where we want to fight to linger. This path is where we become our healthiest and really show up to the world and those closest to us in a way that impacts others. When we are healthy and on our growth path we are responding rather than reac...

We hurt the ones we love. Have you heard that saying? I know that before I understood the enneagram I would act in ways I didn't understand. I react to things in ways I didn't even want to. I would say things and do things that were not nice. Honestly, if my husband was here now I would have a lot of apologizing to do. Enter the blind spot path. When I first started studying the Enneagram I learne...

We are back talking about the Enneagram! I should do it more often- it's so much fun! Well, today's episode isn't the most fun we are talking about stress paths. It's the easiest path to be on and the one that is the most miserable. It's not the path that we want to be on but without noticing- we could be there often. But the great thing about understanding stress- you can actively choose a differ...

We all have fears. All of us. We all have resistance. But those who act anyway are the ones who are world changers. Even if it is just their immediate world. How do we put ourselves into that category of amazing people? How do we do things messy and push past fear EVEN when we have doubt and ANTS (automatic negative thoughts)? How do we stop listening to what the world says about us and step into...
