EPISODE 35: Transformation leads to lasting change
Friend, we are back! And hopefully for good, stay a long time while having a good time. This episode is all about how transformation leads to lasting change. You know how you wake up one day and you just want to change, to live better, do better, think better and move better?

Episode 34 What God is teaching me about fear
Fear! One of the main tactics from the enemy to keep you stuck, delayed, ashamed and not living the life God has for you. Fear keeps you from God!Its been a challenge and a battle that I am learning to overcome and there are 3 things that God pointed out to me and showed about how to combat fear (because it creeps up throughout life because we grow and elevate and change). The lesson is to not get
Episode 33 We Think Harvest
In this episode we chat about how we alwasy think about the Harvest and never the process and what it takes to get to the harvest. We want things quickly, we want growth to happen tomorrow or in the next week- if possible. Something that we don't pay enough attention is to is nature and it can teach us a lot about patience and seasons and what happens in each season. The key.... knowing what s
Episode 32: GOD: Audience of 1
When we are at work, how often do we bring God into our work spaces and everything we do. Do we work as though we are working unto the Lord? Do we bring Him Glory and allow Him to guide us where we work, how we work, to teach us and guide us?
In this episode we talk about making God the center of your work day. Your audience of 1. Pleasing God and serving him and stewarding out work. Being Excelle
Episode 31: Letting God order your steps
Friend,
The new year always brings with it a hope for better, for change, for different, and most of all a hope to get closer to God and align to His will, to be more obedient, faithful, steadfast and good and faithful servant. To get more of Him! Before we get down to do our prayer boards and put goals in place, let's bring it all to Go, what we want to do, achieve etc. Let us let God guide our s
Episode30: Your healing journey with God
Hello Hi friend,
I have been reading 1 and 2 Kings and there are quite a few lessons in those books that i was not expecting (The Old testament is quite an intense part of the Bible for me).
The first lesson I received was about Healing and how God will heal you His way and the way that is for YOU- YOUR own journey. Not how you think it should go or a copy and paste of someone else's healing journ
Episode 29 God's definition of 'Good'
God is Good and everything He does is Good. But we don't always agree or understand- we usually see it after the fact. But we haven't always asked Him what He means when HE says something is good. When He takes us through seasons and daily life, alot of it is for our own good and His Glory. All things work together for our good. All things being the good, bad, ugly, weird and everything in between
Episode 28 Matters of the heart
Our hearts are deceptive and they hold alot of things that we know and don't know. Our hearts can lead us astray (most times it has) and our lives are often a reflection of what's in our hearts.
Asking God to search our hearts should be a daily practice, daily prayer, asking Him to show us, to reveal what we don't know and what we do know, for Him to heal and restore. King David knew
Episode 27 Matthew 6:33. The strong foundation
The Word of God is our foundation. Our guide. Our strength. Our everything. This verse has so much meaning to it, it's an instruction for daily living. Nothing happens without God and as I have held on to this verse while reading and studying through the bible, I have found that there are other verses that point back to this one. Different ways of saying 'God and God's Kingdom first.'

Episode 26 Generosity is Ministry
We have all know the verse- it is more blessed to give than to receive but how does that look like in everyday living?
When we give to others of our money, time, resources, advice, wisdom, teachings, we honor God, we are building the Kingdom of God.
Paul speaks about this in 2 Corinthians chap 8 and 9. Let's chat about the Ministry of giving in this episode
It's taking time because it's supposed to.
Friend.. We need to give God time to work because He knows how your life is supposed to go and when things need to happen.
We rush to get to the end of a season, or breakthrough or miracle or that blessing/s that we don't stop to seek God in each day and ask Him- what are we doing today? What plans do you have? What do you need me to do?
We should wait upon the Lord, knowing that He is going
Obedience moves your life forward
Obedience is a tough one. Tough to put into practice every time. Our feelings often get in the way, so does our fears, doubts, pride and the I-want-to-control-the-outcome mentality.
God just wants your obedience and Trust. Doing as God says- all you need to trust is His promise which that all will go well with you.
Obedience is moving forward in your life- you might not see the immediate movement
See yourself the way God sees you.
If truth be told, we don't see ourselves the way God sees us, they way He each one of us- special, loved, cared for, seen, gifted, powerful. We live our lives according to what the world says, the catorgories and boxes we have been put in throughout our lives. We then miss what God has for us, what He has called us to do and how we should live our lives.
In this episode we chat briefly about how
Don't leave HOPE behind
In the Bible we read about Abraham having Faith. But something else that he had which fueled him was HOPE. Hope in God's words and instructions and believing that all would come to pass. Abraham and many others in the bible- Jeremiah, Moses, Sarah, Joshua- they had HOPE which carried them through even though their circumstances were the exact opposite.
In this episode we speak about having Ho
What we do matters while we wait on God
How are we waiting for God to move or answer our prayers? Are we sitting, pouting, with our arms crossed, tapping our feet and just waiting impatiently? What are we waiting for?
Are we focused on the prayers and what we can get or are we focused on God? How we wait matters, seeking God while waiting matters, living and working while we wait on God matters.
Tune in and let's chat about waiting
Friendships: One of God's greatest gifts
God has created everything that we have, have had and will have and one of the most precious and beautiful gifts he has given us is friendships. And with everything we have been given, we need to steward over our friendships, pray for our friends, pray to be great friends ourselves and to put him at the center of our friendships.
In this episode we speak about how friendships are essentially a for
You trap yourself when you fear people
The bible says in Proverbs 29:25 Fearing people is a dangerous trap but trusting in the Lord means safety.
In this episode we look at a practical example of how dangerous it is for us, our mind and our lives when we fear people. Fearing people causes chaos, it sets us back and sometimes even keeps us in the same place instead of where God is taking us. It is one of the enemy's top tactics to k
God has all your needs handled. Yes... ALLL
Psalm 23- a Psalm that we know and love and has been quoted so many times because of how truly comforting it is. In this episode we talk about each verse and how God meets our needs on a daily.
This is a perfect Psalm to recite to yourself everyday as you go through life, a reminder of who God is, what He does for us and how He loves us so dearly that whatever we need, it's already handled! &q
God's Help runs deep, far, wide & is never-ending.
Today's episode we chat about HELP and where ours has been coming from and where it SHOULD come from. God is our constant help, he delights in every detail of lives, he is always ready to help in times of trouble but also in times of every day "where are my keys" life. He loves us so much and helping us is what He loves doing and it is one of our greatest blessings from Him! He even
The Beauty of Waiting
Nobody likes to wait- Waiting is the absolute ghetto, it’s slow, painful, frustrating, confusing and uncontrollable. You can really end up questioning a lot when you are waiting. However, Proverbs 3- 5-6 reminds us to Trust the Lord with all your heart and mind and lean NOT on your own understanding. When God makes us wait, it’s for a reason, a purpose and a plan! It’s for our own good, our growth
Episode 15- "Have Faith, even though"
Friend, hello hi! In this episode, I would like to encourage you to have "Faith, even though." Even though it's hard, impossible, you don't have enough time, resources, help, people don't believe in you, things seem impossible. God can so much with your mustard seed when you say Yes to him, when you are willing, when you Trust and Obey. Things always look dicey, unclear and very very hard in the b
Episode 14- Believing is Seeing
Happy 2023. Happy New Year. God wants to do so much in our lives but sometimes our mindset and beliefs block us from aligning, trusting and walking with Him. I want to encourage you and I to make DAILY decisions to look to God, walk with God, stay with God, read His word and pray continuously. When we do that, we will see our minds transform, our lives change, we make better decisions and we see a
Defining Prosperity for your life
Prospering or prosperity is something that we want- we want to prosper in our personal lives, career, in relationships but what does prospering mean to you and what does it entail? Do you understand what God means when He says His plans will prosper you? What comes to mind? I have been thinking about this for some time and each time something different comes up.
Tune in to Episode 13 so you and I
There is a point to the "Process"
When the process is hard, what are some of the things we can do each day to keep moving, trusting that God is working, that what we are going through will benefit us & that we will make it out better than before? Tune in so we can figure it out together.
Comparing is good for… Nothing
On this episode we are talking about comparison and feeling less than! Let me tell you, God didn’t waste his time making you only to be the same as everyone else, so why do we waste time comparing ourselves? Why do we let people get in our heads so much? Comparisonville is a dead place to be in and nothing grows there, nothing great happens there. Tune into this episode to get some comfort and rem
Jesus: A Real G!
"Jesus didn't live for God's approval, He lived From God's approval." Episode 10 is here and we are talking about all things Jesus and how we walked this earth like a real G! The world is heavy, it's a lot and it's pretty much the ghetto every single day. However, we have the perfect example in Jesus and how we can walk this earth knowing who we are and whose we are.
"They" don't have the final say
In this episode we talk about the opinions of others and how they hold so much weight in our lives. How we fear doing the Lord’s work because people are looking, people are judging, I am too different, let me just go back to what I know. We forget that we have our ever present help in all things all the time.
Faith brings Joy
In this episode we are going to talk about how faith brings about Joy. It’s always easy with the world being the way that it is, but it is so possible to let the spirit guide you and let God bless you and cover you and protect you when you have faith- even as small as a mustard seed cause we know how big that can get! Having faith seems silly at first but so worth it in the end.
Moses wasn’t always “Red-Sea parting” confident
Our comfort today comes from the story of Moses and how he wasn’t always “Red-Sea” parting confident but walking with God changed him in many ways. Tune in to this episode and get some comfort about something you may be struggling with that has you self rejecting and scared to do what you have been called to do.
The Power of Prayer
One of the best gifts and blessings we have all received as a collective is, Prayer. Prayer is such a powerful weapon and tool that we can use whenever and wherever (literally). Prayer changes things- within yourself, your career, family, relationships- whatever it may be, it will change if you give it enough time and have faith. God doesn't fail, you will get exactly what you need. All you need t
Perfection is God's Timing
Sometimes it may feel like you have gone the “wrong way” or taken the “long way” and it all feels like a waste of time and you are not where you thought you would be! That’s a lie, God has you where you are supposed to and meant to be for the work he is doing within you, you just need to shift your perspective a little. Believe in God’s timing for your life, let him lead and you will receive
Fear IS a weapon formed against you
Fear is NOT of the Lord. God gave us peace, love, sound mind. Confusion, fear, doubt, negative self-talk was not created by God and we need to remember that everyday in everything that we do, say and think! God is good and perfect, everything he does is Good, let's remember that the next time fear has us by the throat!
If God said it, It's TRUE!
It's time we see ourselves the way God sees us, the way he created us to be. We need to start filling our minds and hearts with the Word of God and not the opinions of others, let us work towards doing away with thinking and talking about ourselves as less than.
God's plans are perfect 10s!
God created us, he knows what is best for us. His promises are real, concrete and he stands by them everyday. single. day . Our plans fail a lot of the time or they don't bring us any joy because we do not seek the counsel of He who makes our paths straight. He who said "I have plans to prosper you, give a hope and a future!" A promise that you can count on, why? Because God is not a man that he s
You ARE God's Masterpiece
This first episode is your (and my) reminder that You are a Masterpiece, God's most beautiful and wonderful Masterpiece. Don't let people tell you who you are, who you should be, what you should be doing! It is essential to ask God to reveal to you who he created you to be originally for His Glory and purpose, before the world created this "remix" that you think you are. Everything that we have an
