Why You Know What To Do But Still Won't Start

What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger

You have heard do it afraid a thousand times. But nobody is talking about what happens when you do not. When you sit in the fear long enough it does not just stay in your head. It gets in your body. Your voice. Your muscles. Your nervous system. All of it. In this episode I am getting real about the time I did a live with a trash can next to me because I was that nervous. The vocal therapy I had to get because years of held fear literally stopped my voice from working. And what I learned about what it actually costs you to keep playing it safe. The anxiety is real. But so is what it is doing to you while you wait to feel ready. 1 John 4:4. Greater is He that is within you than he that is in the world. This is your sign to stop waiting and start doing the reps. And if you are ready to stop building alone and want a community of moms who are doing it afraid right alongside you, Mom School is open.

The Lessons I learned 25 Episodes Later

Tonight is episode 25, and we're celebrating live. I'm walking through six real lessons from the last six months of this podcast. The mic I already had before I started. The chair I almost didn't use because it didn't feel "ready." The week Riverside glitched and I had to go live with no backup. The moment I stopped editing myself down to make people comfortable. This is a live Q&A, so I want to hear from you too. Drop your question now in the comments, or bring it with you tonight. Motherhood, faith, your own dream, whatever you've been sitting on, ask it. If you're in a season where you know there's more for you but you're not sure how it fits with everything else you're carrying, that's exactly who Mom School is for. It's a space to actually walk out your dream without choosing between that and your family. You can start here: https://apply.destinyfaithmckoy.com/mom-school-application [https://apply.destinyfaithmckoy.com/mom-school-application] This is your activation for the week. Show up, ask your question, and let's celebrate this one together.

I'm Scared But Doing It Anyway

You finally stepped out. You started the thing. You set the boundary. And then the fear of rejection showed up anyway. In this episode we break down the difference between the fear of the unknown, the fear of intimacy, the fear of failure, and the fear of judgment and rejection. If you have started feeling exposed, separated, or like you are suddenly too much for everybody, this episode is for you. We walk through 2 Timothy 1:6 through 7 and show how stirring up the gift God placed in you and the spirit of fear are talked about in the very same breath. Your fear is not a warning to stop. It is confirmation that something real is happening. This is the episode for the mom who is scared but still choosing to do it anyway. The Wake Up Creative Challenge cart closes June 21.

Why the Algorithm Wants You in a Box and Why God Never Did

Society has one job and it is going to do it. Put you in a box. Pick a niche. Choose one thing. Stay in your lane. But what if God gave you more than one gift on purpose. What if the overflow is not a problem to fix but a design to embrace. In this episode we talk about why the world tries to categorize you, how the algorithm reinforces the box, and why Romans 12:6 says something completely different about the gifts you were given. Plus we play put a finger down. I am naming a few types of creative moms and I want you to count how many fingers you end up putting down. This is episode two of the Wake Up Creative series dropping every Wednesday in June on the Activate Your Destiny podcast. If this episode is hitting home Wake Up Creative was made for you.

Why Creative Moms Keep Hiding Their Gifts and How to Finally Stop

Have you ever looked back at your life and realized your creativity was spilling over the whole time and you just did not have a name for it yet. In this episode I share my personal story of being a multifaceted creative who spent years stuffing her gifts into containers they were never made for. From singing only in church to doing makeup as a necessity to planning my daughter's birthday party and realizing in the middle of it that this is not normal. This is a gift. We talk about what happens when you stop trying to fit your gift into a box and finally let it flow into everything it was designed to touch. This is episode one of the Wake Up Creative series dropping every Wednesday in June. If this episode is hitting home Wake Up Creative was made for you. A seven day challenge for the mom who is ready to stop hiding her gift and start walking in it. The link is in the description.
