Encouraging Women to Live Faithful, Bold, Abundant Lives!

Are you still in?

Are you still in?  Do you believe me?  Are you thinking, “Maybe she’s got “it” but I don’t even know what “it” is?” 

Let’s talk about “it”.  What makes you happy?  I don’t actually mean happy because I think happiness is temporary.  What brings you JOY?  What gets your heart racing and your blood pumping?  Let’s not focus on what gives you anxiety and sends you into panic, but what gets your “motor running”?  What wakes you up in the morning?  (I mean besides the kids, the job, the laundry, the groceries and possibly the third installment of the Twilight series)?  What FIRE is burning in you? 

Stay with me…we’ll get there slowly but those are the kinds of questions we’ll want to explore.  NOT, what do you want to do but WHO DO YOU WANT TO BE?

A wonderful woman in our community passed away recently.  I did not know her but I heard many beautiful things about her.  People said she loved her family, was an accomplished and beloved nurse practitioner, she had a strong faith, was a good friend and wife and mother.  The thing that really stuck with me was that a friend told me she WALKED THE WALK.  She lived with intention and authenticity.  She GLOWED. 

I believe she awakened to the spirit within her and recognized that spirit all around her.  She GLOWED because she embodied the DIVINE. 

You do too.  It’s true.  Let’s get glowing.
