The Voice of Destiny is calling. My beloved, it’s been a few weeks since we’ve last spoken. I know you’ve had a lot going on in your life and you’re just TIRED. Tired of always trying to “figure it out.” Tired of the grind. Tired of being responsible for everyone and everything. Tired of your phone ringing with yet another demand for your time. Tired of hearing that you’re the strong one and you can handle it. But is that why you’re really tired? Sit down for a minute a

Let me introduce myself . . . I AM A VOICE!! I know you’re saying to yourself, I already know who you are. Well, let me RE-INTRODUCE MYSELF, I AM A VOICE is the voice that’s inside of you!! I AM A VOICE has been with you since birth. When you were born, I AM A VOICE was the signal of life as the doctors awaited your cry. When you were a baby, I AM A VOICE was sounding the alarm when you were hungry, wet,or just wanted to be held. As you grew older, I AM A VOICE also grew. Now

Spiritual Well-Being, that was February’s topic for Minding Mondays! There were so many nuggets, but the one that stood out for me was that our spirits are connected to GOD and he speaks to us. But in all honesty, I don’t always FEEL like I’m connecting with the spirit. Shouldn’t I FEEL OR HEAR something? Yeah, I wake up most mornings and do my routine; After I convince myself to get out the bed and brush my teeth it usually starts like this…..I anoint my head and grab my

NEW BEGINNINGS FOR YOU! Well, here we are walking in a NEW year. Most of us have gone out and purchased new calendars, new diaries, maybe even new shoes (smile)! As we walk into this NEW year, we must remember that we too must walk in the NEW. A new mindset, a new focus, a new unrelenting determination towards our goals. Goals are those desires to obtain something in life that we have been dreaming about. Sometimes goals may seem so far away, but just like a “road trip” y

WE MADE IT!! Despite the obstacles we faced in 2020, we got up every morning, pushed through them and scurried into 2021. The declarations I've been hearing is "2020 was a horrible year and I can't wait until 2021!" I agree that 2020 was challenging, but I also agree that if we do not CHANGE DIRECTION we will carry those same obstacles into 2021. Michelle, how do I change my direction when there was so much loss? I'm glad you asked. It starts with PERSPECTIVE! For me, 20

What exactly is Self-Care? I’m glad you asked. The meaning is in the phrase “CARE FOR SELF.” Self-Care is giving the world the best of you, instead of what’s left of you (By Katie Reed). When is the last time you enjoyed a “TIME OUT” and just spent time with YOU. I know it may sound strange, but if you do not enjoy spending time with you, why should anyone else. I’ve always been told that women are natural nurturers. We are the glue that puts things together and make sure the

Take a deep breath. Quiet all the noise. Turn of all external notifications – cell phone, email, social media, etc. Now, turn off the internal noises. The noise that is in your head – your mind. The noise that is shaking your heart. The noise that is attacking your ability to understand, reason or accept this current season of your life. Turn off the nagging of the failed attempts and questions for the unexpected and mind-blowing challenges. Turn it all off. Ok. Now. Get comf

On my last “Zoom with Me” we acknowledged Domestic Violence Awareness Month. We defined it, gave statistics about it, and even had a survivor share her personal story. As I reflect on that “Zoom with Me”, I can’t help but reminisce on the journeys you’ve shared with me. Journeys of SURVIVAL! At some point in life, ALL butterflies experience storms. Whether it’s the storm of an unhealthy relationship, a divorce, a loss, sickness, or your own mind thieves - we have ALL

God is doing a new thing! Don't get stuck in the Familiar! Sometimes we get so comfortable in doing the things we are so used to doing (because we do it well) that it becomes a routine instead of a CALLING! When this happens - it can get pretty muddy. The lines of pursuit of clarity and purpose is muddied between routine and CALLING! There is a distinct difference. In this season God is calling us out into the deep. Yes, it will be UNCOMFORTABLE and UNFAMILIAR! But rememb

Let's get rid of the "mind-thieves" and renew our mind with "life-givers."
