43. The Gifts You Don’t Realize You Have (But Use Every Day)

45. When a Woman Owns Her Gifts (And Stops Waiting for Permission)

There’s a difference between knowing something about yourself… and actually living like it’s true. In this episode, Cortney brings the conversation full circle—exploring what it really looks like to own your gifts. Not in a loud or self-focused way. But in a grounded, steady way where you stop minimizing what’s already true about you. Because when you begin to own how you’re wired: * decisions get clearer * comparison loses its grip * and you stop waiting for permission to be who you already are This is about moving from awareness → alignment → action. 💭 Reflection question: Where am I still downplaying what I know is true about me… or waiting for permission I don’t actually need? If this week’s episode had you thinking, “Okay… I can see this in my life,” you don’t have to sort through it on your own.

Mini 05: Maybe There’s Nothing Wrong With the Way God Created You

Hello Beloved 💛 In today’s little bonus-style voice note, I’m sharing the story of a woman from this community who recently walked through the Discover Your God-Given Gifts coaching experience with me. Together, we explored what it looks like to stop trying to “fix” yourself… and instead begin understanding the way God intentionally designed you with more compassion, clarity, and grace. Inside this episode, we talk about: ✨ the exhaustion of constantly trying to do everything “right” ✨ feeling like you need to explain or apologize for how you process life ✨ why so many women quietly believe they need to become “less” of themselves ✨ how understanding your God-given design can bring freedom and peace ✨ the beauty of ongoing reflection and supportive conversation after moments of insight One of my favorite moments from this conversation: “Oh… maybe there’s nothing wrong with the way God created me after all.” Beloved, if you’ve been feeling stretched thin, second-guessing yourself, or longing for more clarity and ease in this season… I hope this episode encourages you. 💛 During May, the Discover Your God-Given Gifts coaching experience is currently 25% off as part of my Mother’s Day celebration.

44. You Know Yourself More Than You Think (But You Don’t Always Trust It)

Have you ever had a moment where you knew something… and then immediately second-guessed it? In this episode, Cortney explores the tension between what you already sense and the tendency to override it while searching for a “better” or more certain answer. Because the truth is—you probably know yourself more than you think. You already notice what drains you. What supports you. What fits—and what doesn’t. But instead of trusting that, it’s easy to look outside yourself and start from scratch. This is a gentle invitation to pay attention to what you already know—and to begin partnering with God in a way that actually fits how He designed you. 💭 Reflection question: What am I already noticing about myself or my situation… that I keep second-guessing or pushing aside? If this week’s episode had you thinking, “Okay… I can see this in my life,” you don’t have to sort through it on your own.

43. The Gifts You Don’t Realize You Have (But Use Every Day)

Have you ever done something that feels completely normal to you… and then someone points it out like it’s something special? In this episode, Cortney explores the kinds of gifts that often go unnoticed—the ones that don’t come with titles, recognition, or obvious labels. * The way you notice subtle shifts in people. * The way you bring clarity to conversations. * The way you quietly keep things running or remember what matters to others. These aren’t small things. They’re often the exact ways you’re loving and serving others every single day—without even realizing it. This is a gentle invitation to stop overlooking what comes naturally to you and start recognizing it for what it is. 💬 Reflection question: What do people tend to come to me for… and what do I naturally do, even when no one asks? If you’re realizing, “I don’t actually know what my gifts are” or “I think I’ve been overlooking them,” the God-Given Gifts Chat is a simple, supportive place to start. It’s a 1:1 conversation where we look at your real life and begin naming what’s already there—so you can see it clearly and start using it more intentionally.

42. Why Life Feels Different in a New Season (Especially for Women Who Do It All)

Have you ever stepped into a new season of life and found yourself wondering… why does this feel heavier than I expected? In this episode, Cortney shares a personal story about transitioning into a new role and realizing—years later—just how much that shift impacted her, without her fully naming it at the time. Because when your life changes, it’s not that you stop being who you are… it’s that you don’t always know how you fit into this new season yet. This is a compassionate invitation to notice what’s already there—how you’re already showing up in ways that feel like you—and begin to see how your God-given design still fits, even if it looks different now. If you’ve been feeling a little off, unseen, or unsure of where you fit… this one is for you. And… If you’re in that space of “I don’t know how I fit here anymore,” that’s exactly what we sort through in the God-Given Gifts Chat. We take what feels unclear and help you see how you already show up—so you can live it more fully in this season. https://coffeechatsandyogamats.com/giftchat [http://coffeechatsandyogamats.com/giftchat] Let’s live loved—and be love.
