You can be confident about this… even when life is a bit wonky.
Hello hello beloved!
Each time I sit down to send you a note, I wonder about what’s going on in your world. What’s heavy on your heart. What’s bringing you joy.
Regardless of what brought you to the Coffee Chats and Yoga Mats community, I’m so deeply thankful you’re here.
Friend, I hope and pray you know just how special you are. How very much YOU are needed to make the impact that only YOU can make – even when you feel like you’re not being intentional with your time!
As Paul wrote to the Romans,
Isn’t that wonderful??
You are not forgotten. God is deeply concerned about you.
You can be confident that you have great purpose right now – even when…
- Things don’t go your way.
- You don’t get everything done on your to-do list.
- You feel frazzled and icky.
- You don’t feel like you’ve been living intentionally whatsoever.
In case you forgot, I just wanted to remind you that you are deeply loved and have great purpose – on both the worst and best of days.
By the way, I’d be honored to pray for you. If you’d like a friend in your corner to pray for you, let me know!

I’m Cortney, a recovering over-achiever and God’s beloved who loves helping fellow Christian women like you embrace your God-given gifts so you have the confidence to live authentically.
I’m also a full-time mama to two sweet little boys, wife to my best friend, motivational speaker, and part-time Christian life coach. Chai lattes, strong coffee, podcasts, yoga, dance, and fairy tales nourish my soul and add sweetness to life.
Discovering the joy of embracing my God-given gifts and who He created me to be was a game-changer—a journey that brought freedom, unexpected delights, and relief from guilt. Finally, I felt free to be myself and ditch the pressure of being someone I wasn’t.
Incorporating those gifts into my day—from weekly planning to deciding on commitments, nurturing my marriage, and parenting—transformed everything. Now, I can’t imagine life without the perspective of fully embracing who God created me to be. I was missing so much without it!
