One simple truth for when your dream feels out of reach

Reader, When you think about your dream, is it difficult to envision it actually happening? Some of us are wired to visualize the possibilities, and some of us get stuck in the past, maybe remembering the last time you tried something outside of your comfort zone. Whichever camp you fall into, these are the questions that usually come up at the sight of someone else’s success. Questions like: “How did she do that?” “What did it take to get there?” “Could I ever do something like that?” In...

Your dream doesn’t need a perfect plan

Hi Reader, If you’ve ever wondered about sitting down with me to get some clarity about your dream, I have 5 spots open for Clarity Calls in the next few weeks. Scroll down to the bottom of this email and grab one before they're gone! For the last few weeks, I’ve introduced you to women whose dreams are in bloom today because they chose to take small, faithful steps forward, even before they could fully see the possibilities. If you’re not all caught up, click to read Megan’s, Terri’s, or...

Megan’s Story: She didn’t expect her dream to feel this way

Reader, Imagine what it would be like to wake up every morning excited to discover what God has for you and your dream today. To know exactly what you’re building with Him and to feel grateful that you’re no longer carrying the weight of it alone. With the momentum, clarity, and women beside you who remind you you’re not crazy for wanting this. That’s the shift Megan experienced when she stepped into Dream Believers. And she eagerly told me about it because she knows she’s not the only one...

Terri’s story: from unsure to confident in her dream

Reader, Picture yourself two years from now doing something you once thought impossible, something that feels like a natural extension of who you are and your faith in Jesus. Can you see yourself there? Empowered by your faith in a God you loves you and chose you. Using your gifts and talents the way you were meant to. Reaching others who are inspired and encouraged by your work. Feeling awake and alive to the possibilities. You're aware that He is working in and through you to bring His...

This is what it looks like when you say yes to your dream

Reader, Can you imagine waking up each day with a deep sense of peace and purpose? Knowing your work matters, not because it’s perfect, but because it’s aligned with what God has called you to do. Pausing throughout the day to celebrate what He is doing in and through you. Overflowing with gratitude as you see your gifts and talents being used for His good purposes in the world. Because you’re creating beauty, connection, and encouragement that ripples into the lives of others. As the month...

Do this before you move on to November…

Hi Reader, Tomorrow we turn the page to a new month. I love that feeling of fresh and new, with anticipation of what God will do! But before we fall prey to the exhilaration of the next thing—plans, projects, or the sugar rush of tonight’s festivities—can I invite you to make a plan to pause this weekend? Yesterday I was facilitating some reflection time in my Dream Believers community—we do this intentionally at the end of every month for two reasons: We are forgetful people, likely to move...

What if your day began with this 5-minute practice?

Reader, Do you have a consistent morning routine? If I had to guess: you are likely engaged in some combination of exercise, eating breakfast, showering, and getting ready for your day. All good and necessary things we should all be doing. You probably even have Bible reading, prayer, or quiet meditation on that list. Yes! Those spiritual practices are key to our growing relationship with God. But what I’m referring to is this: a daily practice that helps you get clarity about the specific...

Dream Out Loud with us this week...

Hey, Reader! Once a month I host a Dream Out Loud call and it's happening THIS Wednesday, July 16th! Just 45 minutes on Zoom with other dreamers so you can shake off the cobwebs and get better at wrapping words around your God-shaped dream. Want to join us? It's free and gets rave reviews every month like this one: "It is valuable to meet and be with other women who are also pursuing a calling. I appreciate the opportunity to share what I'm doing in a safe space with the accountability to be...

Stuck between too many options? This might help.

Reader, How do you know the next right thing to do with your dream? Emily P. Freeman wrote a book about it, which I haven’t read but hear is pretty good. In the introduction she says, “Unmade decisions hold power. They pull, they push, they interrupt where they aren’t wanted and poke us awake at night.” Oh, if that isn’t the truth! At times it seems like the cascading waterfall of options about the way you might pursue your dream is part of the problem. ❓Is it a business or ministry?❓Online...

When taking the first step feels way harder than expected

Reader, I’d been seeing them all over social media: women walking with weighted vests to build stronger bones and muscles. I got curious—osteoporosis runs in my family, and I’ve seen how broken hips marked the beginning of the end for too many women on my mom’s side. So I thought, Why not? It’s worth a try, right? And I asked for one for Christmas. Welp… 15 pounds strapped to your back for a 1-mile walk is harder than it looks on Instagram. I used that vest once in January—and then took the...
