1 MAR 2024 · Coach Up! Navigating Life's Challenges with a Cup of Coffee and Conviction Yesterday was one of those days where life decided to show up unannounced, testing my resilience. It was a day filled with unexpected tears and moments of vulnerability. In search of support, I reached out to my daughter and husband, asking for a few prayers to help guide me through. A few hours later, my husband appeared at my office, not just with comforting words but with a tangible symbol of support—a cup of coffee. His presence and his reminder to "Coach Up!" were exactly what I needed. His words resonated deeply: - This is life. - It's part of the game. - It will come to pass.- - Stay focused on the big goals. - This is the journey. Despite the tears that continued to fall, his encouragement helped me persevere, reminding me that today is a new day to face the world again. The concept of "Coaching Up" is not just about self-motivation; it's a reminder that life's trials are integral to our journey. They build our character, fortify our strength, and enrich our story. It's about recognizing that the path to achieving our goals is paved with challenges, each designed to test our resolve and prepare us for what lies ahead. My husband's simple act of showing up with a cup of coffee was a profound gesture of understanding and support, a reminder that no one should navigate life's ups and downs alone. The blend of vulnerability and support encapsulates the essence of "Coaching Up." It's an acknowledgment that while some days will inevitably be tough, the presence of a solid support system can make all the difference. It's about having someone in your corner who not only understands the value of a timely coffee delivery but also the immense power of encouragement and belief in one's ability to overcome adversity. Today, I urge you to embrace the concept of "Coaching Up" in your own life. Remember, it's okay to have days where you feel overwhelmed, as long as you keep moving forward. Build your support system—those who understand the importance of both emotional and practical gestures of encouragement. Let's continue to navigate our journeys with resilience, embracing every challenge as an opportunity for growth. And if you can, be the person who delivers coffee to someone in need, understanding that sometimes, it's the smallest acts that carry the greatest impact. #CoachUp #Resilience #SupportSystem #EverydayHeroes

It's about finding environments that challenge us to evolve, support systems that uplift us, and communities that foster our healing. As we set new goals, they inevitably ask something of us—sometimes, they ask us to make bold moves.Just as I found a new spiritual home to support my personal and marital growth, it's important to consider what your goals are asking of you. Are they nudging you toward new experiences, asking you to seek out new communities, or to equip yourself with new tools?What do your goals demand of you this year? What changes do you need to make to support your next phase of growth? Don’t just set goals, get into a community that understands the importance of support, growth, and healing on your journey to achieving your goals. Let's grow together.

4 DEC 2023 · I'm usually juggling multiple accountability groups, and on this particular Saturday, I almost skipped a business vision board party I had RSVP'd for. My schedule was overwhelming, and I thought, "I've hosted plenty of these; I can do it later." But at the last minute, I decided to take a breather, join the call, and work on my vision board alongside fellow entrepreneurs. To my surprise, my coach announced that the first 10 people to complete and post their boards would receive $100. I quickly put mine together and posted it, becoming one of the first to receive the reward. Before midnight, true to her word, my coach transferred the $100. This experience reinforced a few vital lessons for me. Firstly, "If you stay ready, you don't have to get ready." Being prepared and open to opportunities, even when they seem minor, can lead to unexpected rewards. Secondly, taking a break to engage with like-minded individuals can offer fresh perspectives and renewed motivation. Finally, the simple act of showing up can lead to unforeseen gains. This incident also reminded me of a deeper truth: when you allow space for rest and reflection, you open doors for both financial rewards and personal growth. Just as my decision to join the vision board party led to unexpected financial gain and renewed inspiration, your journey can be filled with similar opportunities. Sometimes, taking a break and engaging with a community of peers is all it takes to find a new direction or motivation.
