Hello, beloved!
I’m Cortney, a recovering over-achiever, Christian life coach, motivational speaker, and God’s beloved. I help Christian women embrace who God created them to be so they can confidently step into any season with passion, purpose, and peace.
I’m also an ENFJ, MBTI® coach, Pilates and Yoga teacher, wife, mama, and entrepreneur. More importantly, I’m God’s beloved.
Too many of us feel like we’re not enough and too much (talk about exhausting!) yet God created us intentionally and uniquely because He loves us, chose us, and wants us to thrive with Him.
When you embrace that you are God’s beloved (even with your faults, frailties, failures, and #allthethings) it changes everything. (And that’s where the fun begins!).
- You can have more fun being yourself – with more grace and less guilt.
- You’re less frazzled and more intentional with what gets your attention.
- You can find purpose, passion, and peace in any situation (even when it sucks!)
Progress, not perfection
I don’t have it all figured out. Sometimes I forget that I am God’s beloved. I get distracted by #allthethings, feel comparisonities kicking in, and feel overwhelmed by life. Time and again, I come back to these practices to thrive:
- Remembering that as God’s beloved, I am enough through Christ. He defines who I am – not my accomplishments, failures, fears, or anything else.
- Working with who God created me to be, including my God-gifted personality and capacities, instead of who I’m not, as I pursue my top priorities and goals, organize my life, and connect with others.
- Practicing grace over guilt as I make intentional, incremental changes in my thought life, relationships, and day-to-day activities.
The big ideas behind my services and community
- Our true value and identity come from God alone. We’re his beloved children! No matter how we’re feeling or thinking. No matter what our family, spouse, or anyone else says. He knows us. (Romans 8:14-16, Genesis 1:27, Psalm 139, 1 John 3:1).
- All that we are is a gift from God to intentionally treasure, including our personality. We’re called to be stewards of our lives and talents. (Matthew 25:14-30, Ephesians 2:10).
