Are You Blocking Your Own Blessings?

What if the very thing standing between you and God’s blessings… is you? In this episode, we unpack how fear, comfort zones, and misplaced “yeses” and “nos” can quietly block the life God is calling us into. We talk about getting out of your own way, saying yes with intention, saying no without guilt, and releasing excuses that keep you stuck. God didn’t create you to live small or settle- He came so you could enjoy life and live it to the fullest. When you answer His call, pursue His goodness, and step boldly into purpose, you create space for His blessings to flow. This episode is a loving nudge to move, trust, and walk fully into all God has for you.

If you are on a mission to live a better life by being the best version of you OR you want to know more about what GOD has to say about your life and your purpose, then this is your place. We’re keeping it really real around here about what it takes to live an intentional life full of meaning, purpose, and faith. We’re digging into God’s word so that we can be filled with the TRUTH and PROMISE that he has for each of us. Let’s get into it.

In this episode, we explore the life-changing power of gratitude and why it’s more than a feeling—it’s a way of living. Drawing inspiration from Mark Batterson’s A Million Little Miracles, the conversation highlights everyday examples and simple illustrations that remind us how easy it is to overlook the blessings right in front of us. In this episode, we are reminded to praise God for every gift, resist the temptation to take things for granted, and instead take them for gratitude. This episode invites you to practice gratitude daily, shift your perspective, and allow thankfulness to move from something you do into something you are.

In this week’s episode, All Things New, we’re leaning into the promise of fresh beginnings and intentional growth as we step into a new year. I’m sharing four practical and soul-centered ways to move forward with clarity, purpose, and success: choosing a word or theme to anchor your year, reflecting and journaling to gain wisdom from where you’ve been, considering fasting as a way to reset and refocus, and taking an honest assessment of your current self—while inviting accountability to help you stay the course. This episode is an invitation to pause, realign, and partner with God as you embrace the new things He desires to do in and through you.

2026- Let's go!
