How can you see beyond your busyness? How can you live your dreams without burying yourself first? The K.I.S.S. ~ Less is more! 1.

Let go of material possessions that no longer serve a purpose and prioritize objects that bring you joy and peace. 2.

"The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul." ~ Psalm 23:1-2 (NIV) In the midst of life's chaos and uncertainties, finding rest and peace can feel like an elusive dream. The demands of work, family, and responsibilities can leave us feeling drained and overwhelmed. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co This exquisite imagery of a shepherd tenderly caring for his sheep resonates deeply with the human soul. It speaks of a relationship of trust and guidance, where the Shepherd, our God, ensures that we lack nothing. Just as a shepherd provides for and protects his flock, God takes care of our every need and leads us to places of rest and peace. The image of lying down in green pastures evokes a sense of tranquility and abundance. It symbolizes a space of rest and nourishment where our souls can find solace and renewal. In the hustle and bustle of life, it's easy to forget to pause, to breathe, to rest. Yet, God, our Shepherd, invites us to rest in His provision, to trust in His care. The K.I.S.S. ~ He refreshes my soul! Moreover, the mention of being led beside quiet waters brings to mind a sense of calm and serenity. The gentle flow of the waters mirrors the ebb and flow of God's grace in our lives. It is in these moments of stillness that we can hear His voice, feel His presence, and be rejuvenated in our spirits. In a world that often feels out of control, the reminder that God is in charge, that He shepherds us with love and care, is a balm to our weary souls. Psalm 23:1-2 reassures us that we can find rest in Him, knowing that He leads us to places of peace and restoration. As we navigate the challenges and trials of life, may we find comfort in the promise of Psalm 23:1-2. May we trust in the Shepherd who guides us, rests with us, and refreshes our souls. Let us rest in the assurance that God is in control, and in His hands, we lack nothing. "Be present. Be incredible.

Many of us long for that deeper level of intimacy when it comes to maintaining a healthy and passionate relationship with our spouse. Can you feel the love tonight? We yearn for a connection that goes beyond the physical and dives into the realm of true emotional and sexual fulfillment. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co What is your love life like? Are you getting what you want physically and emotionally? And most of the time, we don't stop long enough to think about whether we are getting "fulfilled" until it comes to that "moment." But what can we do to nurture our relationship and create an atmosphere of love that may naturally lead to greater intimacy? The K.I.S.S. ~ Know the heart more! And this comes with words, actions, and the emotional connection. Words have the power to heal, inspire, and ignite passion. Expressing our love through verbal communication is crucial to creating a stronger emotional bond with our spouse. Simple words of affirmation and praise can go a long way in making them feel loved and appreciated. Open communication is significant in building marital intimacy. Start small, perhaps with a compliment or a genuine 'thank you,' to convey your love and gratitude. These simple gestures can lay a strong foundation for deeper emotional connection and, ultimately, greater intimacy. Actions, on the other hand, speak louder than words. Our daily actions can profoundly impact our spouse's perception of our love and dedication. Small acts of kindness, such as making their favorite coffee in the morning or offering a foot massage after a long day, can demonstrate your commitment to their happiness and well-being. By actively seeking opportunities to be thoughtful and supportive, we cultivate an environment of love and care, paving the way for a more connected and intimate relationship. One important aspect to remember is that intimacy doesn't solely revolve around physical affection or sexual encounters. Emotional intimacy plays a significant role in creating a deeper connection with our spouse. Taking time to really listen, empathize, and engage in meaningful conversations can foster a profound sense of closeness. Emotionally connecting with your spouse can lead to a greater understanding of one another's desires and needs, ultimately enhancing your relationship's physical aspect. Incorporating a love language into your daily interactions can also help bridge the emotional gap and stimulate greater intimacy. Dr. Gary Chapman, renowned relationships expert and author of "The 5 Love Languages," emphasizes the importance of understanding our partner's love language. By identifying and catering to their specific needs, whether it's acts of service, quality time, words of affirmation, physical touch, or receiving gifts, we can effectively communicate our love and promote intimacy in a way that resonates deeply with our spouse. Ultimately, earning and nurturing intimacy requires a combination of words, actions, and emotional connection. By consistently expressing our love, showing appreciation for our spouse, and actively engaging in their emotional world, we can create an atmosphere of love that naturally leads to greater intimacy. As we continue on this journey of love and growth, let us remember that intimacy is not something to be earned or obtained. Instead, it is a beautiful byproduct of a healthy and thriving relationship built on a solid foundation of love, respect, and open communication. So, take the time to speak words of love, demonstrate your affection through actions, and foster emotional connection— and you will undoubtedly feel the love tonight. "Be present. Be incredible.

In the busy world we live in, it's no wonder that chaos can often find its way into our homes. But fear not! You can find the calm in the chaos when you hear yourself yelling, "What's all the noise about?" There really is calm around the corner, literally and figuratively. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co We have compiled three effective strategies that can help you regain control and bring harmony back to your family life. The K.I.S.S. ~ Harmonize with your words and actions! 1. Establish Routine "In times of chaos and uncertainty, routine provides a foundation of stability for children and parents alike," says Dr. Amanda Johnson, child psychologist. By establishing a daily routine, you provide your children with predictability, which reduces anxiety and improves behavior. Set specific bedtimes and wake-up times, allocate time for homework and chores, and incorporate regular family meals. Posting a visual schedule can also help children stay organized and understand what to expect each day. 2. Delegate and Share Responsibilities As parents, we often try to do it all ourselves. However, involving the entire family in managing household tasks not only lightens your load but also teaches children valuable life skills. Create a chore chart and assign age-appropriate tasks to each family member. This not only helps with the division of labor but also promotes teamwork and a sense of responsibility. Remember to express gratitude and praise for their efforts to encourage a positive atmosphere. 3. Care for Your Well-being As they say, you can't pour from an empty cup. Taking care of your own well-being is crucial in managing chaos. Carve out some "me time" every day to recharge and focus on activities that bring you joy and relaxation, whether it's reading, taking a bubble bath, or practicing yoga. Prioritizing self-care isn't selfish; it's an essential component of being a patient and present parent. Managing chaos in the family is possible with the right strategies in place. Establishing a routine, involving the entire family in household responsibilities, and prioritizing self-care will help you regain control and create a harmonious environment for everyone. Remember, the key lies in consistency and open communication. By implementing these strategies, you'll find yourself equipped to manage the chaos and bring harmony back to your family life. So take a deep breath, and let the journey to a calmer home begin. "Be present. Be incredible.

In a world that glorifies busyness and accumulating material possessions, it's easy to get caught up in the idea that more is always better. But what if you flipped that? Goodbye, things! Less is more to live a life well-lived. Because unfortunately, we proudly wear our busy badge of honor, as if filling our lives with countless commitments and a surplus of stuff thinking that somehow it equates to success and fulfillment. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co But what if, deep down, we know that this constant busyness and clutter is holding us back from truly living a life well-lived? Renowned author and minimalist, Fumio Sasaki, once said, "Minimalism is about knowing my true needs, and saying goodbye to everything that doesn't serve me well." These words carry an important message - that in order to live a life of purpose and meaning, we must learn to let go of the excess and focus on what truly matters. Letting go of physical possessions can be a powerful act of liberation. It allows us to create space, both physically and mentally, for the things that truly bring us joy and fulfillment. As Marie Kondo, renowned decluttering expert and author, wisely advises, "The space in which we live should be for the person we are becoming now, not for the person we were in the past." The K.I.S.S. ~ Goodbye, things! But clutter isn't limited to just physical belongings. Our lives can become packed with overflowing schedules, endless to-do lists, and commitments that drain our energy and leave us feeling overwhelmed. It's important to recognize that our worth is not determined by how much we can fit into a day or how many tasks we can check off a list. Instead, our worth lies in our ability to be present, to connect with others, and to make a positive difference in the world. Melissa Camara Wilkins, author of "Permission Granted: Be Who You Were Made to Be and Let Go of the Rest," beautifully captures this sentiment when she says, "We can't build a meaningful life on mindless accumulation and constant busyness. To live a life that matters, we have to be willing to let go of what doesn't." Letting go can be daunting, but it opens up a world of possibilities. It allows us to free ourselves from the shackles of materialism and busyness, enabling us to make space for the things that truly light us up - whether that's pursuing a passion, spending quality time with loved ones, or engaging in activities that bring us peace and contentment. As you bid farewell to the unnecessary distractions and embrace a more simplified lifestyle, you take a stand for yourelf and your well-being. Create room for personal growth, self-reflection, and self-care. By letting go, you make a conscious choice to live with intention and purpose, cultivating a life that is centered around what truly matters to you. Today, let's take a moment to reflect on the things that may be cluttering your life and preventing you from living the life you truly desire. Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!! Let's have the courage to say goodbye to what no longer serves us, so that we may create space for what truly matters. And when you do so, you not only serve yourself but also have the opportunity to serve others in a way that is authentic and true. It's palpable and real! Today, say a heartfelt goodbye-- "Goodbye, things!" that hold you back, and ready yourself to take A.I.M.! Action ignites motivation!

Whether we want to admit it or not, we can be very rude to ourselves by threatening irrational actions because we don't like what we see in the mirror. On this Valentine's Day, count your blessings, not your burdens. Who do you see in the mirror? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Are you one who complains about your wrinkles? The laugh lines that won't go away? In fact, your frown lines become more pronounced when you look in the mirror. Why is that? Are you counting your burdens and not your blessings? You have one body and need to care for it in a way that no one else can. And speaking words of hurt and ugliness defeats the purpose of being kind. It defeats the purpose of loving yourself right where you're at. Now, you might be saying, "Kristianne, you just don't understand what I've been through. I've tried to lose weight for decades. I've tried to gain strength and flexibility. But I just can't get my body to do what it needs to do." I get it. Living a healthy life is not easy. It takes commitment on a daily basis, moment by moment. But you have to get in the game of life. You have got to stop the excuses and count your blessings, not your burdens. You get to see what you have, all the good your body does for you. So I want you to take a deep breath. This probably isn't something you've done on Valentine's Day before. Love yourself! The K.I.S.S. ~ Love yourself! You do this in a unique manner for yourself, not in a way that is prideful or to the detriment of others. It's to lift up who you are so you can experience the love God has for you in your every day. 1. Nurture Your Mind You do this by growing gratitude for your reflection, by speaking kind words to yourself when you look in the mirror, and smiling at who you are becoming. You might be struggling with where you are right now. You might want to be down 27 more pounds. But that doesn't make you less than because your weight is more than. Your conversation with yourself might sound like this. "Oh girl, look at you! You are going to conquer your day with attitude and beauty. Your eyes are going to see those who need your attention. Your smile is going to wake up hope in others. And your heart is going to lead your steps today!" Nurture your mind! 2. Nourish Your Body You do this by eating foods that feed your mind, body, and spirit with the goodness of vitamins and minerals, by intentionally moving your muscles and joints to gain strength and flexibility, and by sleeping so you have the energy to be a living legacy every day. New Year's resolutions are long gone, and the Super Bowl is over. But your life is here today! So treat your body well! This Valentine's Day, don't go get junk chocolate. Spend a couple of dollars more and get the good chocolate that has chocolate beans that help your body and are more beneficial. Why put crap chemicals in your body? You are made for more. So treat your body well. Nourish it well! 3. Embrace Who You Are Becoming You might have a real battle with who you see in the mirror. Your reflection isn't who you remember or even who you want to see. But, my friend, you have to be kind to yourself before you can be kind to others. "Love your neighbor as yourself." ~ Mark 12:31 You have today to make a difference, to make an impact. So do it well by embracing who you are becoming. Celebrate what you do today because of who you were yesterday. You becoming one percent better every day makes room for growth in your mind, body, and spirit. You make choices every day. So let those choices exploit who you are becoming. This Valentine's Day, know that you are willing to make the choices that will change the trajectory of your every day so you can live a life well lived. This is showing your reflection in your heart the love and appreciation you deserve. You are made for more! "Wake up your heart and open your eyes to see the glory God put inside. Count your blessings, not your burdens. You were made to shine!" ~ Kristianne Wargo "Be present. Be incredible.

Why is it that when we face adversity or question our abilities, we immediately sink back and allow ourselves to become overwhelmed? Today, you get to choose to embrace your unstoppable confidence! As we navigate through life's obstacles (because you know we're gonna have them), it's crucial to remember that even when pressed against the wall, incredible possibilities can emerge. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Maya Angelou said, "Nothing can dim the light which shines from within." When faced with difficulties, it's important to tap into our inner resilience, that strength within us. And that comes from precious experiences, failures, learned lessons, and valuable insights from mentors and those close. You possess an untapped well of strength that can be harnessed to overcome any obstacle. Remember, no matter how challenging the situation may be, your unwavering confidence can serve as a guiding light, illuminating the path ahead. The K.I.S.S. ~ Embrace your unstoppable confidence! The only one who can put out your light is you! Eleanor Roosevelt said, "You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face." There is nothing to fear except fear itself; because if that's what's stopping you, imagine what you're missing. Embrace your unstoppable confidence! Fear can often be the biggest roadblock on our path to success. However, by confronting our fears and pushing past them, we unlock the doors to infinite possibilities. If you recognize that fear is not an indication of weakness, but an opportunity for growth and self-discovery, imagine what's possible. Embrace fear as a catalyst to your unstoppable confidence! Now if you are one who is saying, "Kristianne, you just don't know where I'm at right now." C.S. Lewis said, "Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny." What if your unstoppable confidence leads you to exactly where you're supposed to be right now in this season? My friend, you have what it takes to reach your dreams and achieve your goals. So get ready every day and dress with confidence. Confidence that keeps pushing you when you get tired. Confidence that is bold or reserved where needed. Confidence that keeps your light shining brightly. Confidence that jumps higher than expected. Confidence that breeds hope through your actions. Go to your closet, and look for the bold colors that will announce to you that you're ready for battle; the battle to embrace your unstoppable confidence. And if you are wondering if you're cut out for this, borrow my confidence in you!! You got this!!! I'm screaming from the rooftops...You got this!!! Light the flame by taking A.I.M.!

In a culture that glorifies Monday morning quarterbacking, dissecting the past, and scrutinizing the future, it's time to shift your focus. The football game is over, but the journey of presence is now! Get out of your head! Imagine this: you're sitting at a picturesque café, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee filling the air, and a gentle breeze tickling your skin. As the world around you buzzes with life, you find yourself lost in a sea of thoughts, worries, and regrets. Meanwhile, the beauty of the present moment slips through your fingers, unnoticed and forgotten. Sound familiar? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Oftentimes, we live a foggy life with little thought for our next actions because all we do is react to the stimuli in front of us. We habitually place one foot in front of the other, even to the point where a trip over a step becomes just part of the day. Life is too precious! You were created on purpose, for a purpose, here on earth and in Heaven. So whether your team won the Super Bowl or you're sitting back wishing that the coach called a different play or the Ref called a missed penalty, you've got today to make it count. The K.I.S.S. ~ Make it count! "Life is happening now, not yesterday, not tomorrow. Make it count today by being fully present." - Kristianne Wargo In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of thoughts, worries, and distractions that constantly flood our minds. Maybe you've found youself daydreaming about the past or anxiously planning for the future, missing out on the beauty and opportunities that exist right in front of you. Are you ready to break free from the confines of your own head and learn how to be fully present in the moment? 1. Practice Presence Mindfulness is the art of bringing your full attention to the present moment without judgment. It encourages us to observe our thoughts, feelings, and sensations as they arise, rather than being carried away by them. By practicing mindfulness, you can cultivate a deeper connection with the world around you, heightening your awareness of the present moment. Engaging in activities such as meditation, or simply dedicating a few minutes each day to focus solely on your breath can significantly improve your ability to be present. As author Eckhart Tolle once said, "Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have. Make the Now the primary focus of your life." 2. Limit So You Can Look In today's technology-driven era, our attention is constantly being hijacked by smartphones, social media, and the never-ending stream of notifications. These distractions can rob us of precious moments and hinder our ability to fully engage with the world around us. Set aside dedicated time each day to disconnect from digital devices and create a tech-free zone. By doing so, you'll have a chance to fully immerse yourself in conversations, appreciate the beauty of nature, and cherish the small moments that often go unnoticed. It's about seeing what you can't see because you limit so you can look. As tech entrepreneur Tristan Harris once said, "The most precious resource we all have is time." 3. Grow Gratitude Gratitude is a powerful mindset that helps shift our focus from what we lack to what we already have. By regularly practicing gratitude, we become more aware of the countless blessings and opportunities that surround us every day. Take a few minutes each morning or evening to reflect on the things you are grateful for, whether it's a loving family, good health, or even the simple pleasure of a warm cup of coffee. By consciously acknowledging and appreciating these blessings, you bring yourself into the present moment and cultivate a sense of contentment and fulfillment. As renowned psychologist Dr. Robert Emmons once said, "Gratitude is not about ignoring or denying the negative aspects of life. It's an affirmation that there is always something good to be found." You can break free from the confines of your mind and live a truly present life. Embrace the opportunities, connections, and joys in the here and now, and watch as your world transforms into a tapestry of meaningful moments. Remember, as Kristianne Wargo beautifully puts it, "Life is happening now, not yesterday, not tomorrow. Make it count today by being fully present." "Be present. Be incredible.

When we think of victory, our minds often turn to sports competitions, where teams strive to emerge triumphant. Yet, there is a far greater victory that every believer can experience, one that surpasses any earthly achievement. Victorious in love! And that victory is found in God's incredible love for us. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co In the grand game of life, we sometimes face challenges that can leave us feeling defeated and discouraged. But in those moments, we must remember that God's love is unwavering, unending, and undefeated. In fact, the Bible reassures us that "neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 8:38-39, NIV). God's love is not mere sentimentality; it is an unshakable force that empowers us to triumph over every obstacle. God's love is what makes you an overcomer! Just as the winners of the Super Bowl receive a championship ring as a symbol of their victory, we, too, can wear the assurance of God's love as our everlasting trophy on our hearts. The K.I.S.S. ~ Victorious in love! Throughout the Bible, we find countless examples of God's unfailing love. In the book of Exodus, the Israelites were in bondage and cried out to God for deliverance. In response, He parted the Red Sea and led them to freedom. This epic display of love demonstrates that God is not only aware of our struggles, but is also actively working on our behalf. Furthermore, the ultimate demonstration of God's love was showcased through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ. As stated in John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (NIV). It is through Jesus' death and resurrection that you can experience true victory, knowing that you are eternally loved by God. So how do you tap into this victorious love? It starts by acknowledging our need for a relationship with God, and humbly accepting His invitation to experience His love. You can do this by regularly spending time with Him through prayer, reading His Word, and meditating on His promises. The more you immerse yourself in His love, the more your faith will grow, enabling you to overcome adversities with confidence. In the Super Bowl of life, the opposition may be fierce (Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers), but we have a secret weapon-- and it's God's love. Let's embrace it, running the race with endurance, knowing that we are victorious in love. As 1 Corinthians 15:57 reminds us, "But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ" (NIV). My friend, no matter what you are facing today, remember that God's love is your constant companion and source of strength. Trust in His love, for it never fails, and allow it to propel you into a life of victory. As you dive deep into the unfathomable depths of God's love, may you experience a profound sense of joy, peace, and assurance that surpasses any Super Bowl triumph. "Love never fails." - 1 Corinthians 13:8a (NIV). "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #SweetSpirit #CreateYourNow #SoulfulSunday 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Super Bowl champions may have fame, fortune, and a championship title, but they can also teach us a thing or two about love. Like in football, love requires dedication, intentionality, and a strong game plan. Love like a Super Bowl champion! As Valentine's Day approaches, it's the perfect time to up your love game and become an incredible spouse. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. https://createyournow.mn.co Here are three things you can do to love deeper and more intentionally, just like a Super Bowl champion. The K.I.S.S. ~ Love deeper and intentionally! 1. Have a Winning Mindset In football, champions never doubt their abilities or the potential of their team. Apply this winning mindset to your marriage by believing in the strength and potential of your relationship. Remind yourself and your spouse of the love and commitment you share, especially during challenging times. Trust in your love, have confidence in your teamwork, and face any marital challenges like the champion that you are. 2. Practice Daily Acts of Love Super Bowl champions don't become winners overnight; they put in the hours of practice each day. Similarly, cultivating a deep and intentional love requires consistent effort and small acts of love every day. Surprise your spouse with a heartfelt love note, a cup of their favorite coffee, or a random act of kindness. Show appreciation for their presence in your life through small gestures that speak volumes about your love and commitment. Remember, as Kristianne Wargo mentions, "Love is not just a feeling; it is a choice we make every day." Practice love daily, and watch your marriage thrive. 3. Create Meaningful Experiences Super Bowl champions put their heart and soul into every game, and they create memories that last a lifetime. Apply this principle to your marriage by intentionally creating meaningful experiences together. Plan a special date night on Valentine's Day or any other occasion that honors your sweetheart. It could be a romantic dinner at home, a surprise picnic, or even a weekend getaway. Remember, it's not about the grand gestures but about the thoughtfulness and effort you put into making moments special and memorable for both of you. As Kristianne Wargo suggests, "Make each experience a chance to create lasting memories, adding bricks to the foundation of your love." As you embark on your journey to love like a Super Bowl champion, remember that it's the little things that make a big impact. Believe in the power of your love, practice daily acts of love, and create meaningful experiences that strengthen your bond. Love, just like winning a Super Bowl, requires dedication, strategy, and teamwork. So, gear up, embrace the challenge, and show your sweetheart what it means to love like a champion. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage 🔔 Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?
