I've never been so proud of myself for taking days off work as I am returning home from this week's Mastermind.
Who knew that a decision to invest in myself would lead to such clarity, intentional inspiration, and laughter...
i mean, Ashley probably knew- but at the time i said yes that didnt' cross my mind.
I am a deam pedler by nature
I do truly believe in my gut that God has a calling on my life that is bigger than I can imagine.
in fact- that's a story for another time, but I don't just believe that I KNOW it.
And so I said yes to learning a new skill.
In learning though, I found community.
And friendships with the most incredible women
and a framework for helping other female entrapranuers build their businesses in a way that feels nurturing not not nerve-wracking
This view was everything!
Back to Callings - a mini lesson
Wednesday morning as I got my little Rhythms Girl Walk in I noticed a seagul Sanderling had caught a breakfast
It of course made me think about Matthew 6:26
Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?
And then...
the Sanderling attempted to fly away-
and he attempted
and attempted
and attempted
...But the wind was just too strong.
Which is where the actual lesson for the morning came from.
on resilience
and how even when God provides- in really big ways
there can still be resistance, push back, weariness, and grief.
As the year comes to an end- I pray you have a journal full of evidene for how God has provided for you this year.
It's possible you also have some heaviness, some un-met goals, some hurt, and some questions.
If you find yourself in need of some direction for end of year reflection I would love to offer you these...
-
What moments this year made you feel most connected to your purpose or calling?
Reflect on the experiences or decisions that gave you clarity or deepened your understanding of what truly matters. -
Where did you witness God’s provision in your life, even if it felt unexpected or resisted at the time?
Consider the ways you were cared for, guided, or supported, even during seasons of challenge or uncertainty. -
What lessons did you learn from the resistance, setbacks, or unanswered prayers you experienced this year?
Identify the growth or wisdom that came from these moments and how they shaped your perspective moving forward.
In January I'm launching Reclaiming Rhythm
a Coaching program for Christian female entrapranuers.
If you're looking for community, a framework for stepping off the emotional roller coaster, building resilience, and creating a business that feels steady, intentional, & joyful I would love for you to join us!
More to come next week!
genuinley praying for you
