When fear wants to stop you – Reminder “Don’t shrink back”

Have you experience that thing when you feel unsettled, tight chest or throat, butterflies? and everything in your body wants to pull back and shrink back? You've just pushed through (or about to) an upper limit and it feels uncomfortable! You haven't quite fully caught up with ‘being’ the per[...]

Have you ever felt you couldn't share your message or put that program or workshop out because you didn't feel like the "finished article"? 

This is such a common roadblock to walking out your God given purpose. 

Because you feel it, doesn't mean it has to stop you.

1. We don't need to be the finished article, only Jesus is perfect. Our journey of practising our healing and becoming is for life. We don't need to have arrived we just need to walk in obedience.

2. God will use us, wherever we are and however we are. In our weakness he is made strong, so we don't need to serve from a place of being perfect but from a place of surrender to God and His will.

3. God's grace is enough. He is sufficient, if he has put a message in your heart to share, trust it and ask for his grace and wisdom as you do. James 1:5 says he gives wisdom generously to those who ask.

4. You only need to be a few steps ahead of those you serve. Having someone who's just walked through the trenches is so valuable to the person still in it. We become a picture of hope and what's possible without making them feel like it's unattainable because we're so ahead that we feel unreliable to them.

Which of those gave you the reminder you needed today to take that next step? What would you add?

So many of us are still living by rules we didn’t choose—beliefs we picked up in childhood that quietly shape how we show up, dream, and make decisions. 

In this post, I’m exploring the messages we’ve outgrown and how to rewrite them so we can live more freely, creatively, and on purpose.As a coach, I often hear women echo childhood messages that still shape their lives today. Phrases like:

👉 “If you can’t do it perfectly, don’t do it at all.”
👉 “I want doesn’t get.”
👉 “Be seen and not heard.”
👉 “You can’t pay the bills with art.”

These inherited beliefs may have come from well-meaning adults or cultural norms—but when we hold them up to the light of the lives we want to lead—creative, purpose-driven, and free—they can quietly hold us back.

In this episode, we're talking about the rules we’ve outgrown, and asking the powerful question:

What rules need breaking so we can finally move forward?

Watch or listen below and come tell me what childhood beliefs you've left behind to step into your God given identity and calling?

Awake my soul! Wake up! Wake up sleeping giants. 

God's reminding us that we have so much more to awaken to in His Kingdom!

Awake to our true identity in Him
Awake to the Dunamis power of the Holy Spirit
Awake to our Authority
Awake to your union with Christ
Awake to be miracle workers in His name
Awake to the spiritual reality that is all around us

Wake up!

Spirit wake up in Jesus Name 🙏🏼

I'm working on some exciting market research for my business, and looking for women who are passionate about personal growth, sharing a message, using their gifts, and stepping into their next chapter.

I'm looking to interview women who tick all the boxes below. 
 
This is a market research call to help me better understand my market, my potential clients and how best to support them. 
 
This is NOT a secret sales call, purely research for me so don't worry about being caught out!
 
I am conducting these over the next 2 weeks.
 
I am looking for women who:
 
🟧 Align with being led by God the Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit in their lives and also want the same for their potential business or ministry.
🟧 Women who feel a strong conviction there is a message they are supposed to share with the world, a God-given message
🟧 Women who are heart led and empathetic
🟧 Women who are more on the introverted side or quiet
🟧 Women who have experienced feeling like an outsider or different
🟧 Feel called to share a message in some way - business/ ministry/ platform/movement/ voluntarily but are being held back by fear, worries, doubts etc
🟧 Feel things from their past are holding them back and feel like they play small in their lives

If this is you, please DM and tell me a bit about yourself and I'll give you the Zoom booking link.
 
In exchange I'm offering EITHER a free coaching call or free access to Design Your Dreams course.
