{READ CAPTIONšŸ„¹šŸ‘‡šŸ½}

Your losses are different from my losses, but I know youā€™ve lived this experience, too.

Trapped between all you have for which to be wildly grateful, and all you yearn for. Your deep aches.

Itā€™s the nature of being human.

Tomorrow will be one year since I gave birth to our son at seventeen weeks old. We didnā€™t get to do life on this side of Heaven with him, like we planned.

So on birthdays, holidays - any days, really - I can feel the duality of life.

Such joy for my children, and a void where our son was supposed to be.

It applies to everything in life, doesnā€™t it?

We canā€™t experience success without failure.

Wins without losses.

None of us are undefeated in our careers, our families, our goals, our dreams.

Our oldest son asked me the other night at bedtimeā€¦

ā€œMama, would you rather never have had another child, or have had baby Michael only to have him go to Heaven?ā€

Immediately, I knew my answer.

He is our son. Although I so badly wanted him with us here in this life, I would have never given up having him.

Deep pain, deep love.

Welcome to life.

Thanks for being with us this last year, loving us, praying for us, and being there for us. It always softens the blows and amplifies the joys when you have your people around you.

What if this was the year that you became the CEO of your business?

There are a lot of well-meaning, all-gas-no-breaks entrepreneurs out there hoping that at some point the growth will be there and theyā€™ll get their life back (šŸ™‹šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø hi, me for like, 7 years)

History leaves cluesā€¦Ā 

If it hasnā€™t worked yet, why will it be different this time?

I spent nearly seven years betting on this losing horse, until I made one simple, but profound shift that changed everything for meā€¦

I spent more of my time as the CEO than I did as the operator in my business.

Itā€™s a process Iā€™ve now taught to hundreds of other entrepreneurs and itā€™s what has tipped the scales from overworked, overwhelmed, and underpaid, to living out their profitable callings.

If creating, making, and stepping into more while doing LESS feels right šŸ‘‡šŸ½

šŸ„ŗ2024 rocked us, and this is the painful truth I took from itā€¦

Life keeps going.

You can get totally gutted - stripped down to the studs - but life wonā€™t stop. At all.

Life can be mercilessā€¦

But God is not šŸ™šŸ½

I canā€™t tell you how many times I said to Michael this last year, ā€œI wish I could just pause the world and catch my breath.ā€

Instead, God put breath in my lungs right there in the thick of the climb.

THAT is capacity expansion šŸ˜®ā€šŸ’Ø Thatā€™s how we overcome, grow, and do the seemingly impossible.

In my realization, despite how much it hurt at the time, it was actually an awesome gift.

Life keeps goingā€¦

Meaning, even when itā€™s so hard, so painful, what you want seems so out of reach - Hope is always there.

Because life keeps going!

A garbage day, month, or year doesnā€™t stop you from that calling BECAUSE life keeps going.

The same thing that hurt in the moment was the exact reason I came through it with:

āœØrenewed hope
āœØimmense clarity
āœØfocused vision
āœØemboldened passion
āœØclear objectives
āœØmassive growth
āœØtransformation

If last year sucked for you, or if it didnā€™tā€¦

Life keeps going.

You can sit on your calling because youā€™re in the thick of it, but the world isnā€™t stopping with you.

You can wait on what pulls at you because youā€™re tired, or overwhelmed, or too busyā€¦

But it wonā€™t make you feel any better as you watch life keep going as you donā€™t.

In a moment of despair last year a loving, but blunt soul said it best to me:

ā€œWho told you it would be easy? Get up. You have work to do.ā€

And so I did.

That choice changed everything.

Keep going, because life willā€¦ with or without you.

Which one hits most for you? šŸ”„šŸ‘‡šŸ½

I shared this list with my elite masterminders yesterday, and wanted to pass it along to you.

Your lifeā€™s work is calling you, not just another set of empty goals that wonā€™t satiate.

And it requires a complete uprooting from whatever you did this past year.

Something different to get something different.

Thereā€™s a process I walk through to close one year and start the next year with a new trajectory.

Iā€™ll send it over to youā€¦ just drop CEO below šŸ‘‡šŸ½

Itā€™s time.
Itā€™s your year.

This process saved my business and changed my life šŸ„¹

If youā€™re going through a tough season as an entrepreneur, hereā€™s the gist of what Iā€™d want you to knowā¬‡ļø

You donā€™t have to keep allowing it to be that way.

Itā€™s not happening to youā€¦

Youā€™re complicit.

I was complicit (without even knowing it) toā€¦

*the jam packed schedule
*feeling stuck and unclear
*stalled profit
*hitting our ceiling
*being stuck in the weeds
*etc

AND I immediately felt clarity, relief, and had a clear path to BIG growth when I realized it was ME šŸ™‹šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø

Donā€™t do what I did for far too many yearsā€¦

Think you get a clean slate with a new year āŒ

Donā€™t jump into goals, or vision, or team, or offers, or anything until you do this process!

Iā€™ll walk you through it in less than an hour, just write CEO below and Iā€™ll send you what you need šŸ‘‡šŸ½

Iā€™m telling you, this was the catalyst for everything for me šŸ™šŸ½

Life lately pt 2: we were caged by our expectationsā€¦

šŸ™ƒSometime in the thick of selling what we thought was our dream home, packing our life to move, new opportunities, losing our baby, and nearly dying, we had a thought that changed everything:ā€Øā€ØWhat if we changed our expectations?

For years we were judging our reality based on some story we carried about how things *should* look.

Our counter tops *should* be clean.
Our kids *should* be calm.
Our homeschool process *should* be like theirs.
Our business *should* look a certain way.
Our brand *should* fit a specific mold.
Our goals *should* look like this.

So basically, we were perpetually disappointed, behind, or measuring the gap.

In a moment of frustration, we asked each other what it could look like if we broke the rules and did it our way, without the limitations of expectations.

We let our home become a haven instead of creating the illusion of one based on appearances.
We allowed our kids to be kids.
We leaned into our sweet spots, Michael and I, and each of our kids.
We tossed the offers and strategies that felt suffocating.
We stopped trying to create a brand and just leaned into who we really are.
We traded in goals for a life plan and a vivid vision that God called us to.

It was liberating!

Sometimes on a podcast or speaking event Iā€™ll get asked ā€œhow do balance it allā€ and my answer is simple: come spend a day with me and youā€™ll see that I donā€™t.

If youā€™re going to have expectations, set them in your favor.

āœ…It should be hard.
āœ…It should look messy.
āœ…It should stretch you.
āœ…It should be loud sometimes.
āœ…It should be your own.

The result: way more peace in the chaos, a story thatā€™s our own, and clarity that keeps us focused.

Abandoning our expectations opened the door for something pretty spectacular to happen in our lives - canā€™t wait to tell you about it in part 3 šŸ’™

Life lately pt 1: I blinked and we time warped into a whole new life.

I have about a million cliches ripping through my mind to capture the last eight monthsā€¦

ā€œIf these walls could talkā€ feels about right.

In less than a year we were celebrating our fifth child, stepping into a massive business partnership, facing what we thought were the final moments of my life, navigating a long recovery, burying our fifth child (our beloved son, Michael Gabriel), selling what we thought was our dream home, moving across country, settling into our new home, hosting a major event in said home, closing the doors to one of our businesses, amplifying the other, and writing a book.

It only hits me when I catch up with an old friend and give the highlights, and they look at me with crazy eyes and their mouth hanging a little bit open that it registers: oh yeah, I guess that reaction kinda checks out šŸ¤£

Weā€™ve found a peace in the chaos that (again, cliche, I know) really does surpass all understanding.

I prayed for a really long time that God would be more clear in what He was asking of us, and per the use, it came in the form a behemoth sized sledge hammer since apparently, weā€™re too dense to take note of His continuous gentle nudges.

We are ABUNDANTLY CLEAR, God. Please stand down šŸ„“

Life has been moving so quickly, yet I feel and experience so much more of it now.

We meander through the orchards with the kids each afternoon before dinner, I sit under (and obsess over) the vibrant colors of the trees that have come to life on our property this fall, and we eat by candlelight and talk about some really cool stuff as a family.

I kinda wish these walls could talk, because then I could have them dictate to me as I write this book. Iā€™m trying to fully capture how fruitful this painful, clarifying, and inspired season has been for our family.

Weā€™re walking into something greatā€¦ Which requires the abandonment of ā€œgoodā€.

Weā€™re ready. Michael and I are ready.

Prerequisite: weird with a side of little-bit-cray šŸ¤Ŗ

When we shift the expectation of whatā€™s required to live out a worthy, significant calling on our lives, we toughen up a bit.

We expand.

But be careful of who you surround yourself on the way there, because there are some circles that will dull your edges (and youā€™re gunna need those edges).

There are a few instrumental things Iā€™ve done over the last few years to allow my family and business to bloom in unisonā€¦

The best way for me to show you?
