Welcome to the Find Your Fierce Podcast, where you will discover your fierce, unlock an unstoppable mindset, build unbreakable courage, and ultimately transform how you show up daily. I'm your host, Jill Allen, and I'm so glad you're joining me today. In this episode, we'll be exploring how to illuminate the dark corners of our lives and bring healing to our souls. Unfortunately, our worries, hurts, traumas, and busyness can distract us from recognizing God's provision in our lives. But in this episode, we'll explore ways to become more aware of God's presence and power, and to see His hand at work in the details of our lives. Join us as we discuss how a spiritual awakening can help us start seeing the fingerprints of God on every unfolding in our lives.    We will talk about: (2:44) How often we are oblivious to God's miraculous provision in our lives. (5:02) How we can live guided by the light, as taught by Jesus in Matthew 6 (and distinguishing between healthy and unhealthy eyes). (7:03) What causes the darkness in our lives (and an observation of a teenage girl with a palpable darkness reflects how some adults also approach life). (11:05) What the danger is of searching for light in anything other than Jesus. Key Takeaway: Jesus is our answer. Not a crystal, not a card, not a psychic, not a sign, not our horoscope, not a reading, not a number, not a star, not a full moon, nothing other than Jesus. He is light and when our eyes are generously looking for Jesus in every detail of our life, our entire body will be filled with light. We will be guided, we will be filled, we will be strengthened, and we will be blessed beyond measure. - Jill Allen   NEW GIft Alert: Get Instant Access to SET FIRE NOW!

Welcome to the Find Your Fierce Podcast, where you will discover your fierce, unlock an unstoppable mindset, build unbreakable courage, and ultimately transform how you show up daily. I'm your host, Jill Allen, and I'm so glad you're joining me today. In this episode, we will explore the concept of taking a leap of faith and taking action in the face of uncertainty. Often, we find ourselves waiting for a clear sign from God before taking action, which can lead to inaction. However, it is crucial to move forward and take a leap of faith even when things are uncertain, as that is the essence of true faith. Settle in, grab your headphones, and dive into action.    We will talk about: (2:31) Why waiting for a clear sign from God can often lead to inaction. (6:02) Why God doesn't always make things certain. (7:04) What happens when we do what we can do (even if we're not sure it's the right thing). (9:22) What if the next step you take is wrong, and how to bounce back. (11:57) Why you should take the next step towards your goals, even if you feel uncertain or afraid.   Key Takeaway: Drop the fear and take the next step. Sometimes that fear holds on tight when you try to drop it, so you may have to take that next step even when fear is holding on. Drag it, kick it, whatever you have to do, but don't let that fear stop you. - Jill Allen   NEW GIft Alert: Get Instant Access to SET FIRE NOW! Get a sneak peek of my newest book.

I will share my personal experiences of being outside my comfort zone, and how it helped me to push myself and explore new depths.   So, sit back, relax, and put on your headphones as we dive into this topic together.    We will talk about: (5:22) How becoming too comfortable can make us complacent and vulnerable to potential threats.

I'm your host, Jill Allen, and I'm so glad you're joining me today.   In this episode, we'll explore the internal self-talk that can keep us sidelined from our dreams and figure out who these mysterious "they" are that we all seem so afraid of. We'll look at why we give them so much power over our lives and how we can start to silence their voices so that we can start living the lives we were meant to live. We'll talk about what it means to stop caring so much what they think and to go do big things.   So join me as we talk about "What Will They Say," the power of ignoring them and living the life we were meant to live.   Here are some key highlights to know more about this episode:   (4:41) Personal experience of the fear of “what they will say" that hold me back from achieving some of my major transitions and decisions in life.   (6:24) Figure out who are these people that are keeping you from your potential.   (11:32) When you stop caring and live authentically, you become more magnetic and inspire others to explore the same.   (12:25) What are you Feeling and Failing? How they will give you the resilience, self-awareness, and confidence to achieve anything you want in life.   (13:31) When is quitting good? Stopping something is powerful and not always weak.   (16:49) 5 things that will help you continue through the fight of what they say and how to stick to what you want.   Key Takeaway:   When you step into life and stop caring what others say or think, you will be more alive, more magnetic, childlike and natural, joyful and free. And when people see that, they will want to explore that for themselves. And that, my friends, is a beautiful thing. - Jill Allen   Join our Hawaii Mission Trip Team: https://jillallencoaching.com/mission-trips/ If you have zero energy to focus on yourself and need extra support and accountability from women who know what it's like to juggle a crazy busy life, then go to https://jillallencoaching.com/be-fit-and-fierce/ and become unstoppable with us.   Gift Alert: Get Instant Access to SET FREE NOW!   Grab your copy of Set Free: A Woman's Guide to Clarity, Freedom, and God's Endless Love Connect with me on: Website: https://jillallencoaching.com/ Facebook: Jill Allen Instagram: @jillallen   MAKE SURE YOU SHARE, RATE THE EPISODE 5 STARS & LEAVE A REVIEW!  

Welcome to the Find Your Fierce Podcast, where you will discover your fierce, unlock an unstoppable mindset, build unbreakable courage and ultimatley transform how you show up every day. I'm your host, Jill Allen, and I'm so glad you're joining me today.   This episode delves into an issue that affects all of us at some time in our lives: anxiety. I understand that dealing with anxiety can be challenging and overwhelming, but with the appropriate mentality and faith, one can live a life free of anxiety's grasp.   Join me as I discuss what has worked for me and what I have learned through my experience overcoming anxiety. And I'll be walking you through various strategies and tips that I have found helpful in managing stress.   Here are some key highlights to know more about this episode:   (1:35) How playing a spontaneous game of pickleball can help alleviate anxiety. (4:40) How you can choose to live a life of love instead of fear (through relying on God) (5:59) The invitation to healing and the one thing to focus on (even if anxiety is trying to steal from our lives).  (8:36) 4 shifts that will help change the way you view anxiety and empower you to stop letting negative thoughts control you. (10:21) A few encouraging and positive things you need to hear today. (12:37) My non-negotiable personal daily routine for clairity and peace (even if I don't have enough time in the day). (15:37) The four steps that you can start implementing right now to help you alleviate anxiety the moment you feel it coming on.    Key Takeaway:   We need to believe that anxiety doesn't have authority in our life. We don't have to think that I'm always this way or I have this going on or that going on, blaming it on circumstances. When we find ourselves believing our excuses… we have to start standing up for ourselves. We can't give away our power and authority to anxiety. - Jill Allen Join our Hawaii Mission Trip Team: https://jillallencoaching.com/mission-trips/ If you have zero energy to focus on yourself and need extra support and accountability from women who know what it's like to juggle a crazy busy life, then go to https://jillallencoaching.com/be-fit-and-fierce/ and become unstoppable with us.   Gift Alert: Get Instant Access to SET FREE NOW!   Grab your copy of Set Free: A Woman's Guide to Clarity, Freedom, and God's Endless Love Connect with me on: Website: https://jillallencoaching.com/ Facebook: Jill Allen Instagram: @jillallen   MAKE SURE YOU SHARE, RATE THE EPISODE 5 STARS & LEAVE A REVIEW!
