Keep climbing! As you take those first steps towards your goals, you will soon realize that it is the experiences you gather, the people you meet, the challenges you face, and the values you hold dear that will transform you into a stronger, wiser, and more resilient version of yourself.

Today, we remember those who gave everything—their lives, their futures, their dreams—so that we could live in freedom. What freedoms are you thankful for? How can we become so busy that we can't even take 90 seconds to be grateful to those who gave us this country? Our heroes who sacrificed believed so strongly that they were willing to give their lives so you and I could have our freedoms. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com A True Hero Story: On June 6, 1944, during the D-Day invasion of Normandy in World War II, a young paratrooper named Private First Class (PFC) Charles DeGlopper was part of the 82nd Airborne Division. His unit was pinned down by heavy enemy fire, and the mission was on the brink of collapse. Seeing his comrades in danger, PFC DeGlopper made a fateful decision. He stood up in the open, drawing the enemy's attention. Firing his weapon and absorbing countless hits, he kept the Germans occupied long enough for his platoon to maneuver and break free. He was mortally wounded, but his sacrifice saved his unit. For his bravery, PFC DeGlopper was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor. His selfless act allowed his fellow soldiers to survive and continue the fight for freedom. The Mindset: PFC DeGlopper's story highlights the power of selflessness, courage, and belief in something greater than ourselves. He chose to face almost certain death because he believed in the mission and the lives of his friends. This kind of mindset teaches us: Purpose over fear: He didn't let fear stop him because he focused on his purpose—saving others. Service over self: His actions were driven by what he could do for others, not for himself. Legacy in sacrifice: True courage creates a ripple effect, inspiring others to act bravely and selflessly in their own lives. The K.I.S.S. ~ Show your gratitude! What We Can Do to Show Our Gratitude: Memorial Day isn't just about picnics or barbecues; it's about honoring those who gave their all. Here's how we can truly show our gratitude: ✅ Live with purpose: Let the memory of those who sacrificed inspire us to be better—more kind, more courageous, more willing to serve. ✅ Serve others: Whether it's helping a neighbor, supporting veterans' causes, or simply being there for someone in need, these acts of service honor those who died for us. ✅ Reflect and remember: Take time to learn about a fallen hero's story, like PFC DeGlopper's, and share it with others. Keep their memory alive. ✅ Express gratitude openly: Thank veterans and military families. Write a letter, attend a ceremony, or visit a memorial to show your respect. Who can you thank today for their service? How can you live your day, and not just today, but every day from this point on, with the heart that someone saw a future for our country before you knew? Today, we remember. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

As Memorial Weekend marks the onset of summertime and the anticipation of vacations and getaways, let's take a moment to consider a different kind of journey – a vacation for the soul. In our fast-paced lives filled with technology, family obligations, and career pursuits, it's easy to overlook the spiritual aspect of our existence. While we strive to fulfill our own desires and obligations, we must also ponder what God's purpose is for our lives. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com Psalm 23:3 ~ "He refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake." This verse underscores the importance of seeking rejuvenation for our spirits and aligning ourselves with God's will to lead purposeful lives. As we immerse ourselves in holiday celebrations and leisure activities, let us not neglect the essence of our being – our spirit. We are not mere spectators in life but agents of God's divine plan, tailor-made with unique gifts and callings. To live out God's purpose, we must nourish our souls and commit to honoring His desires above all else. The K.I.S.S. ~ A vacation for the soul! Amidst the festivities and revelry, let us make a conscious effort to provide our spirits with the care and sustenance they require: 1. Intentional Rest and Reflection: Set aside moments of quiet contemplation and seek God's presence in stillness. Find solace in prayer, meditation, and reflection to rejuvenate your spirit. 2. Scriptural Guidance: Delve into the Word of God for wisdom and direction. Allow scripture to illuminate your path and inspire you to uphold His desires in your daily life. 3. Community and Fellowship: Surround yourself with fellow believers who can offer support, encouragement, and accountability on your spiritual journey. Share in the joy of worship and fellowship to invigorate your spirit. 4. Service and Purpose: Engage in acts of service and selflessness to fulfill God's purpose for your life. Seek opportunities to spread love, kindness, and compassion to others, reflecting the divine light within you. 5. Prioritize Your Relationship with God: Commit to nurturing your relationship with God above all else. Make Him the focal point of your life and allow His will to guide your actions and decisions. As we revel in the festivities of Memorial Weekend and the joys of summertime, let us not forget to embark on a sacred journey – a vacation for the soul. By tending to our spiritual well-being, we not only enrich our own lives but also honor God's purpose for us. Feast on the nourishment of His word, find solace in His presence, and commit to living out His desires in all we do. In prioritizing our spirits, we discover true abundance and fulfillment in God's divine plan and purpose for our lives. "Be present. Be incredible.

In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it's easy for the magic of marriage to get lost in the mix – buried beneath deadlines, to-do lists, and responsibilities. As you enjoy this holiday weekend, take a moment to recommit, reflect, and reignite your love for each other. Holidays give us an excuse to make time for each other. But why do we have to wait. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com As I was sitting at dinner with my family, specifically my daughter and her boyfriend, it took me back to when my husband and I were dating. Life was mostly simple at times, until there was something at school or work, or the family needed us. The struggles were there, but didn't overtake our feelings. However, soon into the marriage, life got a little more real. Time seemed to shrink, and responsibilities seemed to grow. Oh how quick we forget the little things that we said yes to, that now, is only a bother. Oh bother!! (Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh, Disney) In marriage, we can't live our lives like Eeyore. So instead of letting life lead, you get to lead your life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Reignite your love! Back when my husband and I were dating, we wrote a ton of letters. The art of letter writing is a beautiful thing, especially when you share your deepest thoughts with the one you love most, your spouse. As let's put pen to paper, and write that love letter. And if you're wondering what to include, here are three essential elements that can breathe new life into your marriage and reignite the flame of your love. 1. Authenticity: Pour your heart out onto the page and express your true feelings without reservation. Be vulnerable, honest, and sincere in sharing your emotions, memories, and desires. Authenticity is the foundation of a deep and meaningful connection, and it allows you to truly understand and appreciate each other on a profound level. 2. Gratitude: Take this opportunity to express your appreciation for all the little things your partner does that often go unnoticed. From the way they make your morning coffee just right to the unwavering support they provide during tough times, acknowledging and thanking them for their efforts can strengthen the bond between us. Gratitude fosters a sense of mutual respect and admiration, reminding us of the countless reasons you fell in love in the first place. 3. Vision for the Future: Paint a picture of the future you envision together – full of love, joy, and shared dreams. Share your hopes, aspirations, and plans for the journey ahead, illustrating a path that you can walk hand in hand. By aligning your visions for the future, you can create a sense of unity and purpose that will guide us through the challenges and triumphs that lie ahead. Now the fun part, give your letter to your sweetheart. Let the beauty and power of your connection and your words serve as a beacon of light that takes you back to the heart of love – where your souls intertwine and your spirits dance in harmony.

Are you dreading the impending summer days with your kids? Fear not! With a few savvy summertime parenting hacks, you can create all the fun you desire and keep your sanity intact. Balancing boundaries and enjoyment can be a challenge, but with the right strategies, you can make the most of the sunny season with your little ones. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com First of all, think about what you want for your family. When you look at today, where do you want to be on the last day of summer? And what I mean by this is, how do you want to grow and be stretched as a family? Summers can be challenging because there is more time to fill with activities. But you don't have to do everything. Yet, you do need to be a family and spend time together. The K.I.S.S. ~ Spend time together! That's where everything starts: spend time together! Summertime is not a break from school and studying, but an opportunity to strengthen your relationship with your children. No matter what you do, if spending time together is the result, that's the best summer ever. However, I know there are a few things you can do to help you get through the summer with a smile. So let's look at ten parenting hacks to help you survive and thrive during the summer months. 1. Set a Daily Routine: Establishing a daily routine can provide structure for both you and your kids. Include designated playtime, meal times, and quiet time to maintain a sense of order throughout the day. 2. Create a Summer Bucket List: Involve your children in creating a list of fun activities and adventures they want to experience during the summer. And this bucket list does not have to cost money. Yet, it gives them something to look forward to and helps prevent boredom. 3. Limit Screen Time: While it can be tempting to rely on screens for entertainment, set limits on screen time to encourage outdoor play, creativity, and family bonding. 4. Organize Weekly Outings: Plan weekly outings to parks, museums, or local attractions to break up the routine and keep things exciting for your kids. 5. Schedule "Mom/Dad Time": Prioritize self-care by scheduling regular "mom/dad time" for yourself. Whether it's reading a book, going for a walk, or enjoying a cup of coffee in peace, taking care of yourself will help you recharge and be a better parent. 6. Turn Chores into Games: Get your kids involved in household chores by turning them into fun games. Make cleaning up a race or create a scavenger hunt for items that need to be put away. 7. Embrace Messy Play: Let go of the need for a perfectly clean house and embrace messy play activities like painting, water play, or baking together. The memories created will far outweigh the temporary mess. 8. Set Boundaries with Love: Establish clear boundaries with your children and enforce them with love and consistency. Consistent boundaries provide a sense of security for kids and help them understand expectations. 9. Plan Regular Family Parties: Hold weekly family parties to discuss upcoming plans, express concerns, and celebrate successes. Encouraging open communication strengthens family bonds and fosters a sense of teamwork. 10. Practice Gratitude: Encourage your children to practice gratitude by reflecting on the positive aspects of each day. Ending the day with gratitude can shift the focus from challenges to blessings. Create a Summer Gratitude & Joy Jar. Then, you can revisit your memories anytime. By implementing these parenting hacks, you can navigate the summer months with ease and create lasting memories with your children. Remember, finding the balance between boundaries and fun is key to a successful summer for the whole family. "Be present. Be incredible.

In a world where we often strive for perfection and compare ourselves to others, it's easy to lose sight of our own unique journey and accomplishments. But what if you celebrate how far you've come instead of focusing on what you haven't achieved? Give yourself more credit. Life is a rollercoaster of highs and lows, twists and turns, successes and setbacks. It's a constant journey of growth, learning, and self-discovery. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com And through it all, one thing remains true: you have the power to shape your own narrative, to define who you are, and to give yourself the credit you truly deserve. Each morning we wake up is a new opportunity to rewrite our stories, to choose positivity over negativity, and to acknowledge the progress we've made, no matter how small. It's about shifting our mindset from doubt to belief, from criticism to compassion. Rather than dwelling on the challenges we face, let's focus on our strengths, our resilience, and our determination to keep moving forward. Let's acknowledge the little victories, the moments of courage, and the steps we've taken towards our goals. The K.I.S.S. ~ Give yourself more credit! Life is too short to be consumed by self-doubt and negativity. It's time to break free from the cycle of doubt and embrace a mindset of empowerment and self-appreciation. Let's take the pain of our past experiences and use them as stepping stones towards a brighter future. There's no reason to live in the bubble of double trouble. Remember, progress is not linear. It's okay to have setbacks and detours along the way. What matters most is that you keep pushing forward, one step at a time, towards your own version of greatness. So, give yourself more credit. Celebrate your journey, your resilience, and your unwavering spirit. Embrace the unique path you're on, and believe in the endless possibilities that lie ahead. You are worthy, you are capable, and you are deserving of all the credit in the world. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo Keep taking those steps, believing in yourself, and watching as your journey multiplies your impact. "Be present. Be incredible.

What do you do when all h*ll breaks loose regarding healthy living? There are so many times when you don't have any control, because outside factors are dictating the situation or circumstance. How do you go about making healthy choices? How do you make your life count when everything around you is crumbling? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com In times when everything seems to be falling apart and circumstances feel overwhelming, it's essential to remember that the power to make a positive impact on your well-being lies within you. While external factors may be out of your control, there are still ways to prioritize your health and well-being even when all h*ll breaks loose. You need to understand that you matter, and what you can do in the moment and season you're in is all that counts. Beating yourself up for the unknowns or uncontrollable options is not possible. That only digs a deeper hole that you are not worthy. And that is backward thinking! Move forward and embrace what matters-- YOU!!! The K.I.S.S. ~ Do what you can! It's not about being perfect in healthy living, but making good choices that work for an imperfect season. 1. Focus on What You Can Control: In situations where external circumstances seem to dictate your life, it's crucial to shift your focus to what you can control. This might include your mindset, daily habits, and self-care practices. By directing your energy and effort towards managing the aspects of your life that are within your reach, you can empower yourself to make healthier choices despite the chaos around you. "Let the hamster wheel go; you can still drink water while on it." ~ Kristianne Wargo 2. Practice Mindfulness and Self-Compassion: Being kind to yourself during challenging times is paramount. Instead of criticizing yourself for not being able to control external factors, practice self-compassion and mindfulness. Take moments to breathe, reflect on your strengths, and acknowledge the efforts you're making towards maintaining your well-being. By nurturing a positive relationship with yourself, you can better navigate difficult circumstances with resilience and grace. "Kindness goes a long way when you serve from your heart." ~ Kristianne Wargo 3. Seek Support and Connection: Remember, you don't have to face tough times alone. Reach out to friends, family, or a support network for guidance and encouragement. Sharing your struggles with others can provide a sense of relief and perspective, reminding you that you are not alone in your journey towards health and wellness. Whether through virtual connections, therapy, or community resources, seeking support can help you feel empowered and supported during challenging times. When all h*ll breaks loose, remember that your well-being matters, and taking care of yourself is a courageous act of loving who you are and who you are becoming. By focusing on what you can control, practicing mindfulness and self-compassion, and seeking support from others, you can navigate through tough times with resilience and determination. Embrace the power within you to make healthy choices and prioritize your well-being, no matter what circumstances may come your way. You are made for more. Don't sell your body short just because you're in a season of chaos. Take a deep breath, be present in your decisions, and follow through with resilient action. You got this! "Be present.

Something so basic can seem so obvious. But why don't we do the obvious, like being kind or sharing a smile? All it takes is a decision to make it happen. Why not start your day happy? All too often, we wake up letting what the day "means" and where it falls in the week determine whether or not we're gonna have a good day. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com How shallow it is of us to assume that the name of the day dictates the feeling you should have. What if you were to buy into the truth of how you get to control how you show up? Think about how you woke up today. Maybe you could ask yourself the same question as you go to bed. You can feel what you want, but you can also determine how you want to react or respond to your feelings. Just Monday is not liked by the majority of people who go to work, doesn't mean you have to dislike Monday. It's all your perspective. So why not.... The K.I.S.S. ~ Start your day happy! As you wake up each morning, take a moment to savor the sensations of a new day. Feel the rhythm of your heartbeat, take a deep breath, and embrace the boundless possibilities that lie ahead. Instead of succumbing to negative thoughts or letting external circumstances dictate your mood, choose to show up with intention and positivity. Choose to show up with a kind smile! Why not greet the day with a smile and an open heart, ready to embrace whatever comes your way? By cultivating a mindset of gratitude and optimism, you set the stage for a day filled with joy and fulfillment. It's no longer about the outcomes or results of your circumstances. Remember, happiness is not dependent on external circumstances but rather on how we choose to perceive and respond to the world around us. Start your day happy! "Be present. Be incredible.

It's when changes come into the picture that everything goes awry. All of a sudden, you are pushed and pulled in directions you have not experienced, leaving you with feelings that don't sit well. You are officially uncomfortable, and the retreat is even more appealing. That's where hating the calendar begins. So instead of wondering aimlessly through life with your habits, you get to make a deadline work for you! The K.I.S.S. ~ Make a deadline work for you! Running away will not get you where you want to go. In fact, it will derail your dreams and hurt your heart. Deadlines often invoke feelings of stress and pressure, but they can also be powerful motivators when leveraged effectively. By shifting your perspective and approach, you can harness the potential of deadlines to propel you towards your goals and dreams. Here are three strategies to make a deadline work for you: 1. Set Clear and Specific Goals: Before tackling a deadline, take the time to clearly define your goals and objectives. By breaking down your overarching goal into smaller, actionable steps, you can create a roadmap to success. Specificity is key here – the more precise your objectives, the easier it becomes to track your progress and stay on course. 2. Establish a Reward System: Rewarding yourself for meeting deadlines can provide an extra incentive to stay focused and motivated. Consider setting up a rewards system where you treat yourself to something enjoyable upon reaching certain milestones or completing tasks on time. This positive reinforcement not only boosts your morale but also cultivates a sense of achievement and progress. 3. Practice Effective Time Management: Efficient time management is essential for making deadlines work in your favor. Prioritize tasks based on their urgency and importance, allocate dedicated time slots for work, and eliminate distractions to enhance your productivity. Utilize tools such as calendars, to-do lists, and time-tracking apps to optimize your workflow and ensure that you meet your deadlines effectively. By implementing these strategies, you can transform deadlines from daunting obstacles into valuable opportunities that propel you forward. "Be present. Be incredible.

When life feels like it's crumbling down around you, it pushes you to think about your faith. Does God really hear me? Does He see what I need? Does He really care? Certainly, as you wrestle with living in an imperfect world, you want to know that God's got you, somewhere, a sign of hope. With every corner you turn and every valley you fall into, there doesn't always seem to be that hope. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com Your life might look a little messy with a health crisis, a troubling child, an unsettling relationship, a questionable career path, or an aging parent. As messy as the middle is, God is right there in the middle of it with you. The Bible (Daniel 6) tells the story of Daniel and the Lion's den, illustrating how unwavering faith can lead us through the most challenging of circumstances. God sent an angel and shut the mouths of the lions. Daniel was unharmed. But I guarantee you that in the circumstance, he was probably scared, nervous, yet faithful. Just as Daniel trusted in God's protection, we too can find strength in our faith during times of difficulty. God's presence is not always flashy or dramatic - He often reveals Himself in the small, everyday moments we may overlook. What is different now is that God shows up in the blinks of your day. I like to call them the God winks in life. He is not going to strike you with lightning, show up in the burning bush. But those nudges and tugs on your heart, the turning stomach with butterflies, or the thoughts you would not have thought-- yea, that's God. The K.I.S.S. ~ A sign of hope! When you spend time with Him and commune with Him, you are building your relationship. And that means, your faith is growing. "Walk by faith, not by sight." ~ 2 Corinthians 5:7 A sign of hope might be a stranger who said something to you, a neighbor who asked the right question, or your sweetheart who confirmed a thought in your head. The God winks in life are all around you. But you must believe in order to see. Walking by faith is not the tangible Moses moment with the burning bush. Yes, God is omnipresent. He is within you, God the Holy Spirit. So when your days seem darker than your nights, don't forget to look for a sign of hope. The blessings are around you. The direction you need to go is before you. But you've gotta look in order to see. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and he shall direct your paths." ~ Proverbs 3:5-6 "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #Inspiration #CreateYourNow #DailyMotivation 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?
