A Birthday Reflection: Living Everyday Unstoppable

This past week, I celebrated another year of life — and I want to begin with a heartfelt thank you.

Your messages, prayers, and kind words reminded me once again of the beautiful community that surrounds this journey. I am deeply grateful. As I paused to reflect on this season of life, one truth kept surfacing in my heart:

Becoming "Everyday Unstoppable" is not about striving. It is about surrendering to what matters most — and moving forward, anchored in what cannot be shaken. Over this past year, here are a few lessons I’ve been learning and relearning:

1. Progress, not perfection, is where the joy lives.

There was a time I believed I had to "arrive" — that only when everything was perfectly aligned could I truly thrive. Now I see: life is a series of intentional, faithful steps. The beauty is found in walking them, not in waiting for them to look perfect.

2. Courage happens in the small, unseen moments.

It’s not always the big milestones or bold declarations. Real courage is the quiet choice to rise again, to believe again, to stay rooted when life feels uncertain. I’ve found that when I choose courage in the small things, it builds an unshakable foundation for the larger ones.

3. Resilience is nurtured by community and spiritual grounding.

I have seen again and again this year that we are not meant to do this life alone. The prayers of a friend, the words of scripture at just the right moment, the shared wisdom of women walking their purpose — these are the things that strengthen me most.

4. Purpose must be lived, not chased.

For so long, I thought I had to “find” my purpose. Now I know: purpose is not some elusive destination. It is cultivated in the way we show up each day — with intention, with faith, and with an openness to where God is leading. This perspective is what inspired me to create Everyday Unstoppable — not as a place for more noise or pressure, but as a space where women can be deeply equipped to live this out:

Mastering their mindset.

Owning their mission.

Fueling their momentum.

Everyday Courage is the starting point for that journey — and it brings me so much joy to now offer it to other women walking through leadership, life, and calling. As I step into this next year of life, I am more grounded than ever in these truths:

✨ Faith is my foundation.

✨ Purpose is in the present moment.

✨ Courage is a daily choice.

✨ Community is where strength multiplies.

With a full heart — thank you.

Here’s to the year ahead.
