I was listening to a podcast recently and they mentioned we can purchase almost every fruit all year long. Like summer fruits, can be purchased in the winter and vice versa. That’s a little scary when you think about it. I think this has aided in our current society that we need everything now. There’s no reason to wait until things are in season, they can be imported or manufactured even when they are out of season.

But when we have things out of season, we are no longer receiving the best quality or fruit that we could have if it was produced in the right season.

“For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant and a time to harvest.” Ecclesiastes 3:1-2 NLT

Sometimes, it’s better to wait until things are in season for you! Just because something is available it doesn’t mean it’s the right season for you‭‭. Not waiting to the right season may mean your fruit aren’t ripe! Often times it’s better to wait until your season.

Did y’all know the word therapy is in the Bible? When I learned this I was astonished!

One day Jesus called together his twelve disciples and gave them power and authority to cast out all demons and to heal all diseases. Luke‬ ‭9‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NLT‬‬

The word heal in this verse translates in the Greek to therapeuō and it’s where we get our word therapy. This word means to restore health!

If you have ever been to therapy, this is what a therapist does – heals!

I believe God can use therapy as one of many resources to help us process things in our lives. I tell people all the time, I need Jesus and therapy. Therapy can also lead to quantum leaps in areas emotionally, relationally, or spiritually to process past experiences and create new habits to move forward. Therapy helps you see your blind spots from the past and gives you language to help you understand things that may have occurred in your life.

If you are looking for a therapist, the key to finding a therapist is to keep trying until you find someone who works for you! If you ever want to have a non-biased person listen to you, try therapy.

Hey y’all! So I went to an amazing conference over the weekend! It’s really more like a family reunion. Lol. I finally put some names to some faces and met some of the coaches from the mentorship program. I always feel the best way I learn is to implement what I learned and to share it with others.

So here’s my top 7 nuggets in no particular order:

1. God gives creative abundance. What I do with the creative abundance determines if I get financial abundance.
2. Sometimes you need to be in a room to get permission to be you and do what God called you to do.
3. Content is an exchange of goods and services and the compensation is the way to say thank you.
4. You are not who you are after you are encouraged, you are who you are at your natural state.
5. Money respects itself so much that it will not come to someone who will waste it.
6. Certain rooms will change your appetite and you get hungry for things that you didn’t even know you needed.
7. Greatness is mandatory.

Because I’m me, here’s a bonus nugget:

Those who are uniquely successful treat what others deem optional as mandatory!

I have so many pages of notes that I wouldn’t even try to share in one blog! The best conferences are those that make me examine what I am doing and lead me right back to Jesus.

What’s your favorite conference to attend?

In a world with a heightened awareness of seeking approval from others through social media likes, comments, and reshares I have to ensure I’m grounded in who God says I am.

We are in such a beautiful time with information easily at our disposal within seconds. However, on the flip side, we can consume 20 to 30 different images in less than a minute on social media telling us we should be more like this or that.

To be honest it isn’t normal to consume information so quickly because we can’t filter or process all the images we are seeing.

As the Information age continues to rise, I have to be willing to decrease my intake and fall on my knees and have an encounter with the one and true King.

Before I fill my eyes with any social media post, GIF, and y’all I love a good laugh, I have to fill my heart, mind, and soul with the word of God.

The only approval that weighs the heaviest in my life is my Heavenly Father. Once I’m approved by him, it becomes easier to tune out the noise of others.

“I praise God for what he has promised. I trust in God, so why should I be afraid? What can mere mortals do to me?” Psalms‬ ‭56‬:‭4‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Last week’s blog: Holding Patterns

I am writing this blog while I am on a plane in a holding pattern. While I don’t know all the instances a holding pattern is used, I’ll share with you my experience on a plane in this holding pattern.

We were descending into DFW airport and the captain came on the intercom and advised of bad weather. All flights in the air were halted from flying into the airport and for 10 mins we were circling in the area in a holding pattern in the air until we were cleared to land.

After I landed, I began to do a little research on a holding pattern. Based on my knowledge a holding pattern is a period of no progress or change and for a plane it is when you are awaiting permission to land.

I realized sometimes we may have holding patterns in our own lives. There may be areas where there’s no progress or we are stagnant in our growth. I think holding patterns usually start in our minds and thoughts and eventually lead to our hearts and become part of our actions.

Mind -> Heart -> Action

They can derive from a variety of things such as fear, unbelief, or a lack of direction or clarity. The best and hardest thing to do if you want to release yourself of the holding pattern is to become the person and do the thing that brings you growth.

Question of the day: What is stopping you from releasing yourself from a holding pattern?

Last week’s blog: Exposure

I am often asked why I travel so much. I can sum this answer up in one word, exposure.

Exposure breeds curiosity.

I was exposed to travel in high school, and after that, while I didn’t have the means to travel as often as I liked in college, I was finally able to pursue my love of travel after finishing school. The one thing about exposure is that once you are exposed to something you can never be unexposed to it. For me, I realized travel exposed me to so many different cultures, landscapes, lifestyles, cuisine experiences and much more. Through my exposure to traveling, I encountered various situations and learned resilience. So, if you see me on the plane just know traveling is just one of my hobbies that I was exposed to, and it captivated me.

What’s something you were exposed to which changed your life?
