God has you. He thinks bigger than our earthly minds can comprehend. In this episode, I’m sharing some thoughts around navigating one of the most difficult seasons and how (especially in hindsight) I can see how God has led me to the right places and people to help me through it. I touch on a few topics around mindset, from getting gritty in your business to build momentum to how you can think bigger if you listen to the messages God has for you. Another common theme you’ll hear in this episode is the power of having the right people in your life and focusing on relationships before everything else. Family, friends, coaches, and mastermind groups are all there to help support you and for you to support in return as we all grow together! God has you, the people that love you have you, you don’t have to do life alone!

Today we are discussing different seasons where we may be saying yes more often to more things, or no more often to more things. We talk about why we go through these different seasons, the idea of surrender and pushing through to do uncomfortable things, and how you can know whether you are in a yes or no season.

Today we are talking about staying out of the victim mindset, instead choosing an overcoming mindset and empowering yourself to take on the challenges that life will inevitably throw towards you. Whether it’s business or personal, the victim mindset can really be detrimental to your growth and prosperity. It can be easy to fall into the patterns of victimhood, but we need to push through and ask ourselves how we can get through this rather than why this is happening to us.

Did you know that when crabs outgrow their shell they have to be vulnerable without one while looking for one that fits? This is an amazing analogy for life! Is there an area of your life that you feel you have outgrown but you are afraid to change? This is so true for many of us, we find comfort in the discomfort we know and the unknown is frightening no matter how good the possibilities are. You can’t create that new version of yourself if you are attached to the old version. You were made for more, trust yourself and take the leap!
