Show NotesSummaryIf you've said yes to Father's dream but now you're worn down by resistance, slow progress, or doubts that whisper “Did I miss God?”, this series is for you. In this first episode of The Dreamer's Journey, I'm going to help you reframe “stuck” as a fresh starting line—so instead of quitting, you'll find the courage to carry your dream forward with confidence.TakeawaysGod plants the dream; you didn't make it up.Confirmation markers: aligns with Scripture, serves others, requires faith, bears good fruit.Resistance often comes early and refines courage.Your brain treats envisioned futures as possible—use holy imagination with wisdom.Negativity bias makes pushback feel louder than progress—guard your focus.Dreams give direction, not step-by-step instructions.Detours develop the woman who can carry the dream.New starting lines aren't failure; they're formation.Write the dream to refresh clarity and courage.Small, obedient steps move you out of stall.Quotes“The dream isn't the finish line—it's the starting line of your becoming.”“Resistance doesn't cancel your dream; it conditions you to carry it.”“The dream is a direction, not a destination.”“Every ‘stuck' is a fresh starting line.”Courageous ActionWrite the dream Father planted in you. Put it fresh on paper so you can see it again.Then, write the resistance you're facing right now—things like doubt, fear, procrastination, pushback from others, slow sales, or even that whisper of imposter syndrome.Finally, ask: How could this resistance be shaping me into the woman who can carry the dream further? Then take one small step this week in line with that insight.Chapters00:00 Welcome & Series Intro02:05 When your dream doesn't match reality06:40 Joseph's dream: planted, not pretended12:30 Resistance refines18:45 Direction, not destination24:30 Courageous Action & Prayer27:30 Next episode teaserWho Am I?Hey friend, I'm Heather—your Courageous Coach.

Your gift isn't meant to stay hidden. God placed something inside of you that was never just for you, it was meant to serve, inspire, and uplift others. But too often we waste our gifts because of fear, comparison, or the lie that we're not good enough. In this episode, I'm sharing why your gift matters, how to overcome feelings of inadequacy, and the importance of using what God has given you, even if it only impacts one person. Because someone's breakthrough could be waiting on your obedience.FOLLOW US: @girlsirlpod @mariahclayton_ Don't forget to leave a 5 Star rating!

Send us a textClick here for ResourcesHave you ever found yourself caught in an endless loop of replaying conversations, wondering if you said the right thing or how others perceived you? You're not alone. Overanalyzing isn't just an annoying habit. It is rooted in our evolutionary biology and neurological wiring.When we replay social interactions, our brains are actually seeking validation and safety. MRI studies show that rejection activates the same regions of the brain as physical pain, while approval triggers dopamine, creating a temporary high that keeps us stuck in the cycle. From childhood, many of us, especially women, were conditioned to equate fitting in with safety. Be good. Follow the rules. Don't stand out. Over time, our nervous systems learned to chase approval instead of trusting our own compass.The cost is enormous. Overthinking drains our energy and keeps us stuck in the past or anxious about the future. Our real power is only available in the present moment. Research shows that successful people share one key trait: they care less about others' opinions and act boldly from their inner vision.In this episode of my self help podcast for women and growth minded listeners, I, Dr. Amen Kaur, share a simple three step framework to break free. First, catch yourself in the overthinking loop. Second, regulate your nervous system through breath and presence. Third, take one small action that affirms who you are in this moment.I also share my mantra “So Be It,” which helps you embody the version of yourself who takes action. Clarity doesn't come from thinking more. It comes from being who you truly are.Whether you are navigating overthinking, seeking personal growth, or building the confidence to follow your dreams, this episode will give you the tools to move forward.If you are ready to step into who you want to be, book a free consultation with me, Dr. Amen Kaur, and discover how to embody your vision and release the old conditioning that is keeping you stuck. The power is within you. So be it.Support the show
SummaryEver feel like you're carrying people, projects, or even clutter that leave you drained instead of filled? I know that weight. I also know how scary it feels to even think about letting go—because what if it means losing? What if it means failure? In this episode, I'm sharing a very personal story of when I had to release something good and how Father met me in that space. If you've been afraid of letting go, this conversation will give you courage to see what it really makes room for—His greater.TakeawaysLetting go is not failure; it's preparation.Pruning good things creates space for greater fruit.Weekly rhythm: Review, Release, Realign.Quotes“Letting go isn't losing—it's how Father makes space for greater glory.”“Good can be heavy when it's out of season.”“Review it. Release it. Realign it.”Courageous ActionThis week, I want you to practice the art of letting go with three steps:Review it. Set aside 15 minutes. Look back over your week and ask: What drained me? What energized me? What was only good? What could be greater? Write it down so you can see it clearly.Release it. Take what you wrote and pray: Father, I give You these drains and even the good things I've been holding tightly. I trust You to make space for the greater You have for me. Tell Him exactly what you're releasing.Realign it. Do one action that proves you're letting go. Cancel the coffee date that always leaves you empty. Retire the offer that no longer fits. Let the client go who isn't aligned with your calling. Clear the clutter that steals your focus.Letting go isn't losing. It's how you make room for Father's greater glory in your life and business.Chapters00:00 Enrolling Questions & Big Idea02:00 Why Capacity Requires Surrender04:00 Personal Story: Being “Let Go”08:00 Proverbs 3:5–6 — Trust & Direction10:45 Point 1: Let Go of the Drains (Hebrews 12:1)18:20 Point 2: Let Go of the Good for Greater (John 15:2)26:20 Point 3: The Art of Letting Go—Review, Release, Realign (1 Peter 5:7)33:00 Recap & Courageous Action36:30 CTA: Hello Courageous BookWho Am I?Hey friend, I'm Heather—your Courageous Coach.

SummaryFeeling “not enough” doesn't mean you're failing—it means Father is expanding you. Learn how He equips what He expands, the rhythms that strengthen you, and the systems that multiply you so you can carry greater glory without burnout.TakeawaysFeeling “not enough” can be a sign of holy expansion.Father equips what He expands (2 Peter 1:3; Hebrews 13:20–21).Rhythms strengthen you; systems multiply you.Try: First 15, 50-10 focus, weekly Sabbath, and one tiny team task.Quotes“Father equips what He expands.”“Rhythms put strength in your soul; systems multiply your impact.”“Greater glory always requires greater capacity.”Courageous ActionThis week, expand your capacity with these three steps:Spot the Equipping: Ask Father, “What have You already given me for this season?” Write it down—a mentor, a tool, a word of wisdom—and keep it where you'll see it.Choose One Rhythm: Pick a simple rhythm (First 15 minutes with Father, a 50–10 work/rest cycle, or a Sabbath day) and schedule it like an appointment with your future self.Create One System: Put one small system in place (booking link, onboarding checklist, or email template).

The real blocker usually isn't your product; it's confidence and not knowing what to say or where to say it.

The result? Crickets—not because the product is bad, but because no one heard about it enough times to buy. The fix is a mindset + messaging shift you can trigger with AI in under a minute. The 60-Second Fix: Copy/Paste These 2 Prompts Prompt #1 — Confidence & Language Paste this into your AI tool: Act as my business coach and mindset mentor. I've created a digital product about [TOPIC] but I feel nervous promoting it. Remind me why my experience has value, explain how selling helps people, write me a confident script for talking about my product, and give me 5 places to share it today. Be encouraging but honest. This gives you: a quick reframe, a confidence boost, and a short script you can actually use in DMs, posts, and conversations. Prompt #2 — Distribution Plan (What to Post & Where) I'm ready to promote with confidence. Give me 10 places to share my product today with exact words for each platform (helpful, not salesy). Include social media, email ideas, and networking conversation starters. Also give me a simple 7-day promotion schedule.

Why Growth Never Stops | Glory to Greater Glory series pt 1 | Ep 369SummaryWhen you live and grow in Christ, nothing in your story is wasted—not your wins and not your flops.

It's a chance to learn a lot. Please follow carefully."Ko: 지호의 친구 민준은 신이 나서 말을 걸었다.En: Jiho's friend Minjun was excited as he struck up a conversation.Ko: "지호야, 벌써 두근두근하지 않니? 난 정말 기대돼!"En: "Jiho, don't you feel thrilled already? I'm really looking forward to it!"Ko: 지호는 조용히 웃으며 고개를 끄덕였다.En: Jiho quietly laughed and nodded.Ko: 민준은 탐험을 아주 좋아했다.En: Minjun loved exploration.Ko: 그는 위험도 두려워하지 않았다.En: He wasn't afraid of danger.Ko: 하지만 지호는 달랐다.En: But Jiho was different.Ko: 그는 벌레와 뱀이 일부러 자신을 대기하는 것처럼 느꼈다.En: He felt like bugs and snakes were waiting for him on purpose.Ko: 정글 보호구역에 도착하자, 나무들이 하늘로 높이 솟아 있었다.En: When they arrived at the jungle sanctuary, the trees soared high into the sky.Ko: 풀숲에서는 매미 소리가 들렸다.En: The sound of cicadas came from the grass.Ko: 햇살은 나뭇잎 사이로 점점이 내려왔다.En: Sunlight speckled down through the leaves.Ko: 학생들은 소진 선생님의 지시에 따라 줄을 맞춰 걸었다.En: The students walked in a line following Sojin teacher's instructions.Ko: "자, 이쪽입니다!" 소진 선생님이 손짓하며 안내했다.En: "This way, please!" Sojin teacher gestured as she guided them.Ko: 길을 걷던 중, 갑자기 지호는 작은 소리를 들었다.En: While walking along the path, Jiho suddenly heard a small sound.Ko: 그의 눈앞에 큰 나비 한 마리가 날아올랐다.En: A large butterfly flew in front of his eyes.Ko: 그것은 푸른빛의 날개를 가진 아름다운 나비였다.En: It was a beautiful butterfly with blue wings.Ko: 지호는 잠시 멈칫했으나, 나비의 아름다움에 시선을 고정했다.En: Jiho paused for a moment but fixed his gaze on the butterfly's beauty.Ko: 민준도 지호 옆에 다가와 말했다.

Don't be scared, just look at it."Ko: 지호는 크게 숨을 내쉬었다. 그리고 한 걸음 더 나아갔다.En: Jiho took a deep breath and took another step forward.Ko: 그의 마음은 조금씩 가벼워지기 시작했다.En: His heart started to feel a bit lighter.Ko: 나비는 날아가고, 지호는 미소 지었다.En: The butterfly flew away, and Jiho smiled.Ko: 그날 저녁, 집으로 돌아온 지호는 식탁에 앉아 생각했다.En: That evening, when Jiho returned home, he sat at the table and thought to himself.Ko: "그래, 자연은 무섭지 않아. 오히려 신비롭고 아름다워."En: "Yes, nature isn't scary. Rather, it's mysterious and beautiful."Ko: 이것을 깨달은 지호는 자신감이 넘쳤다.En: Realizing this, Jiho was full of confidence.Ko: 그는 이제 두려움을 이겨냈고, 앞으로 더 많은 것을 배우고 싶었다.En: He had overcome his fears and now wanted to learn more.Ko: 지호는 소중한 경험을 통해 진짜 자연의 친구가 되었다.En: Through this valuable experience, Jiho became a true friend of nature.Ko: 이야기가 끝난 후, 지호의 마음속에는 자연에 대한 새로운 사랑이 자리 잡았다.En: After the story ended, a new love for nature settled in Jiho's heart.

Building a Brand That Opens Doors In this episode, I sit down with Serah, a former child actor turned personal branding expert and AI business strategist, to explore why personal branding isn't a “nice-to-have” anymore — it's the engine that drives your career and business forward. We swap real-world examples from heavy-hitters like Sara Blakely, Kendra Scott, and Elon Musk, showing how the right brand identity can multiply your impact, influence, and income. From overcoming the fear of self-promotion to navigating humility without hiding your brilliance, Serah breaks down the mindset shifts that every entrepreneur and professional needs to make to be seen, heard, and trusted. The Fear Factor: Rejection, Imperfection, and the Art of Showing Up We talk about the paralysis that comes from worrying about how your work will be received — and why you need to release it anyway. I share why I tell authors to publish their books without obsessing over reviews, because your unique perspective is what makes the work valuable. We even take a detour into pop culture, unpacking the mixed reviews of Amazon Prime Video's “War of the Worlds” and how audience reaction doesn't always match actual value. Creativity, Algorithms, and Authentic Connection Putting yourself out there creatively isn't easy. Serah and I dive into the messy reality of criticism, algorithm-driven visibility, and the rising hunger for authentic human connection in a world leaning heavily on AI. We explore why imperfection isn't a liability — it's proof you're human and relatable. Speaking Up — Even When You're Not Ready I share a personal story about how a college presentation — given while I had chicken pox — became the turning point in my public speaking journey. The standing ovation I received despite my appearance taught me one lesson I've carried for life: never let fear silence you. From Self-Sabotage to Vision-Driven Growth Serah and I connect the dots between personal branding, risk-taking, and the inner work needed to break free from limiting beliefs. We talk about creating a vivid future self-identity, setting meaningful goals, and tackling the invisible barriers that hold so many back. The throughline? Success comes when you decide to play bigger — and actually step onto the stage you've been avoiding. Resources & Connections Serah shares her own platforms, including her personal brand hub sarahdelaine.com, her Stage 8 agency for marketing services, and her Profitable Personal Brand newsletter. Whether you're an entrepreneur, leader, or creative, this conversation will give you the clarity — and the push — to own your story and amplify your presence. About Serah D'Laine From Hollywood Red Carpet to Reinvention Serah D'Laine's entrepreneurial life once revolved around her Hollywood career. She was a successful actress, known for gracing the screen with roles in feature films, network television, and national commercials. Working since she was 13 years old, her world was immersed with auditions, scripts, and the glitz, glamour, and chaos of the entertainment industry. From the outside, it looked like she had it all—a successful acting career many dream of, red carpets, recognition, and a foot in the door of fame. But beneath the surface, Serah felt a deep void. The Hollywood lifestyle didn't align with her desire for meaningful life.Growing up in Hollywood brought a measure of success she enjoyed, she started to feel like she was playing a role not just on screen but in her own life. There was a lingering feeling that something deeper was missing—a sense of purpose, alignment, and fulfillment that no amount of celebrity could provide.... Then came the moment that changed everything: a near-death experience. A single, life-altering event that ripped away the illusions she had built her life around. Waking nearly every night in a panic from PTS - It left her with one haunting realization: she wasn't living her truth. She felt a pull—call it intuition, destiny, or divine intervention—to walk away from the world she knew and reinvent herself entirely. The vision of a new path—a fusion of personal growth, branding, and impact—emerged. But stepping into the unknown was terrifying. Could she leave her career, identity, and comfort zone behind to build something entirely new?..... "one of the hardest decisions of my life, to put a successful 15 year career on hold + finally listen to “HER”, my true self." Her journey has prepared her for this role as a brand strategist, business coach, and leadership mentor. She has reinvented herself not once but multiple times, and her success was the ultimate validation that this was her destined path. What makes Serah different? Her brand isn't built on theories; it's built on experience. She knows the highs and lows of reinvention because she's lived them. And now, she's here to guide others to their own version of success. Today, Serah D'Laine stands as a speaker in psychology-based branding, business growth strategy, and leadership. Through Stage IIX, iSCALE CRM, and her Profitable Personal Brand Formula and L.E.A.D Method, she offers clients the tools to build authentic brands, achieve financial freedom, and align their businesses with their highest selves. Her journey—marked by reinvention, resilience, and results—makes her uniquely qualified to guide others. She isn't just a coach; she's a testament to the power of transformation, proving that anyone can rise, pivot, and thrive when they align their purpose with their work. "The million dollar tip that “Hollywood” taught me, that is probably one of the most important things I use to succeed in your business.....IT'S ALL ABOUT POSITIONING!!!

In the opening sermon of the Name Your Shark series, Pastor Curt Taylor invites us to confront the “sharks” in our lives, our deepest fears and anxieties. Drawing from Scripture, he demonstrates how faith isn't about being fearless, but about recognizing that God is with us even when fear feels overwhelming. Pastor Curt gave practical steps to identify and “name” your fears, which takes the first step toward conquering them. He encouraged to speak your fears into the light, replace them with God's truth, and move forward with renewed courage and purpose.

grønne, som om de voktet over de mange skulpturene.En: The trees stood proud and green, as if guarding the many sculptures.No: Besøkende spaserte langs stiene, noen med kameraer, andre med kaffekopper.En: Visitors strolled along the paths, some with cameras, others with coffee cups.No: Det var en perfekt dag for en tur, og i dag hadde Sindre bestemt seg for å møte frykten sin.En: It was a perfect day for a walk, and today Sindre had decided to face his fear.No: Sindre, Astrid og Lars hadde møtt hverandre ved inngangen til parken tidlig om morgenen.En: Sindre, Astrid, and Lars had met each other at the park entrance early in the morning.No: Sindre var alltid entusiastisk når det kom til friluftsliv, men det var én ting som alltid satt en demper på humøret hans – høyder.En: Sindre was always enthusiastic when it came to outdoor activities, but there was one thing that always dampened his spirits – heights.No: Men denne gangen ville han vise at han kunne overvinne dette.En: But this time he wanted to show that he could overcome it.No: Astrid, som alltid fant glede i å motivere vennene sine, smilte bredt.En: Astrid, who always found joy in motivating her friends, smiled

utsiktspunktet de nærmet seg.En: In his mind, the thought of the high vantage point they were approaching loomed.No: Lars, som knipset bilder, kastet et varmt blikk mot ham.En: Lars, snapping pictures, cast a warm glance at him.No: "Jeg gleder meg til å få noen fantastiske bilder der oppe!En: "I can't wait to get some amazing pictures up there!"No: "Da de nådde den bratte delen av ruten,

hill before them.No: Hendene hans skalv, og hjertet banket fortere.En: His hands trembled, and his heart beat faster.No: Han visste at dette øyeblikket ville komme, men nå som det var her, føltes det umulig å fortsette.En: He knew this moment would come, but now that it was here, it felt impossible to continue.No: Astrid snudde seg og så uttrykket i ansiktet hans.En: Astrid turned and saw the expression on his face.No: "Sindre, alt er i orden.En: "Sindre, everything is fine.No: Vi er her sammen.En: We're here together."No: " Lars senket kameraet og gikk bort til ham.En: Lars lowered his

Sindre seg lettere til sinns.En: Their conversations were soothing, and soon Sindre felt lighter in spirit.No: Da de endelig nådde toppen, var utsikten formidabel.En: When they finally reached the top, the view was formidable.No: Oslo strakte seg ut i det fjerne, vakker og uendelig.En: Oslo stretched out in the distance, beautiful and endless.No: Sindre pustet tungt, men ansiktet hans lyste opp med en blanding av lettelse og stolthet.En: Sindre breathed heavily, but his face lit up with a mix of relief and pride.No: "Du gjorde det!En: "You did it!"No: " utbrøt Astrid, og ga ham en klem.En: exclaimed Astrid, giving him a hug.No: Lars tok frem kameraet igjen for å fange øyeblikket.En: Lars brought out his camera again to capture the moment.No: Sindre smilte bredt for fotografiet, ikke bare over hva han hadde overvunnet, men også over støtte fra sine venner som hadde hjulpet ham dit.En: Sindre smiled broadly for the photo, not just over what he had overcome, but also over the support from his friends who had helped him there.No: På vei tilbake gjennom parken, visste Sindre at han hadde vunnet mer enn bare en kamp mot frykten.En: On the way back through the park, Sindre knew he had won more than just a battle against fear.No: Han hadde forstått betydningen av å stole på andre, og verdien av vennskap blev klarere enn noen gang.En: He had understood the importance of trusting others, and the value of friendship became clearer than ever.No: Og med den innsikten, følte han seg klarere og tryggere, ikke bare på høyden, men i livet generelt.En: And with that insight,

We all experience fear; we would hardly be human if we didn't. It is possible to face your fear and ask Spirit for understanding. Becoming aware is a big part of overcoming fear and its deleterious effects. "Fear not saith the Lord, for I am with you always." In this lesson, we will learn that fear is normal, natural, and can be liberating when, through practicing awareness, we don't fight fear, but see it as a visitor, come to alert you of a spiritual lesson on its way.
Feeling stuck in indecision?

Solo Travel Adventures: Safe Travel for Women, Preparing for a Trip, Overcoming Fear, Travel Tips
Solo travel has become a transformative movement, particularly among women who now comprise 70% of all solo travelers worldwide. Yet despite these impressive statistics, many women remain on the sidelines, watching others embark on adventures they only dream about. What's holding them back? For many, it's the invisible weight of past trauma, grief, or loss that makes the unknown elements of solo travel feel insurmountable.This episode introduces the concept of travel coaching—a specialized approach distinct from traditional travel planning services. Unlike travel agents who book your trips, travel coaches focus on the deeper "why" behind your journey, crafting intentional experiences designed for personal growth and healing. When we've experienced trauma, our brains often remain stuck in survival mode, making even the thought of planning travel overwhelming. Travel coaching works specifically with these challenges, helping guide women from a place of hesitation to empowered exploration.The magic happens when we step beyond our comfort zones. Something transformative occurs when we leave familiar surroundings—our brains begin to rewire as we engage with new environments, pulling us out of internal thought patterns and creating space for new perspectives. For trauma survivors, this shift can be profoundly healing, though timing matters. A travel coach helps identify the right moment in your healing journey and designs experiences that challenge appropriately without triggering. Whether you're processing grief, recovering from divorce, or healing from past trauma, intentional solo travel might be the breakthrough experience you've been seeking.
