    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 Let’s live loved—and be love. Wondering what your God-given gifts actually are and how to honor them in the middle of real life (not just the highlight reel)? Let’s talk. 💬 The best place to start is a free God-Given Gifts Chat — an audio + text convo inside Voxer (no Zoom required, promise). We’ll: • Check in on your current season • Name 1 gift • Brainstorm 1 simple next step you can take No pressure. No pretending. Just a grace-filled space to help you get unstuck and move forward with a little more clarity and confidence. ✨Book your God-Given Gifts Chat — or just reply to any email from me with "I'm curious" and I’ll send you the details.

    Mini 04:When Capacity Is Low & the “Shoulds” Are Loud

    In this mini episode, I’m sharing from a very real, very present place—what it looks like to navigate a low capacity season without turning on yourself. Because if you’re anything like me, this is where the “shoulds” get loud… “I should be doing more.” “I’m not doing enough.” “I’m doing too much of the wrong things.” It’s exhausting. Whether you’re walking through illness, caregiving, a full family season, or just a lot of life at once—you’re not alone in this tension. In this episode, I’m sharing a few gentle, grounding practices that have been helping me come back to reality, clarity, and truth: ✨ Naming your reality (instead of pushing past it) ✨ Clarifying what actually matters in this season ✨ Re-anchoring in truth and partnering with God in the middle of it ✨ Releasing “shoulds” that come from trying to live like someone else This isn’t about doing it perfectly. It’s about meeting yourself where you actually are—and finding grace there. If you’re in a low (or just very full) capacity season, my hope is that you leave this episode with a little more clarity, a little less pressure, and permission to move forward in a way that actually fits your life. — 💛 Want support in your season? I offer “God-Given Gift Chats”—a space to process what’s going on in your life, uncover your unique wiring, and identify next steps that feel aligned and doable (without the pressure of “shoulds”).

    41. 3 Signs Something Feels Off (And It Might Not Be What You Think)

    Have you ever had that quiet feeling like… something’s off—but you can’t quite explain why? In this episode, we’re unpacking three subtle signs that something might be out of alignment in your life—not in a dramatic, everything-is-wrong kind of way, but in the small, easy-to-miss ways that often get overlooked. From not being able to name what’s wrong… to things feeling heavier than they should… to inspiration quietly turning into pressure—this is a gentle invitation to get curious instead of critical. Because sometimes the problem isn’t you. If you’ve been feeling that low-level tension or questioning yourself more than usual, this episode will help you pause, notice, and begin to understand what might actually be going on. 💬Reflection question: Which of these stood out to you most?

    40. What Actually Changes When a Woman Starts Using Her Gifts

    Have you ever wondered what’s actually supposed to change when you start using your God-given gifts? Because it’s easy to hear “use your gifts” or “walk in your purpose”… but what does that really look like in everyday life? In this episode, we’re talking about the real shifts that happen—not the dramatic, overnight transformation you might expect, but the quieter, deeper changes that truly matter. From things feeling lighter… to clearer decisions… to learning how to trust yourself in a grounded, steady way—this is what it actually looks like to begin living in alignment with how God designed you. If you’ve been using your gifts (or want to), but you’re unsure if anything is really changing… this episode will help you see what to look for. And… If you’re in that space of “I’m starting to see it, but I don’t know how to actually live it out,” the God-Given Gifts Chat is where we take those small shifts and turn them into something practical and life-giving in your real, current season. https://coffeechatsandyogamats.com/giftchat  Let’s live loved—and be loved.

    39. Why Knowing Your Gifts Doesn’t Automatically Change Your Life

    Have you ever had a moment where you finally understand yourself better… but nothing in your life actually changes? In this episode, we’re talking about the gap between knowing your God-given gifts and actually living them out. Because awareness is powerful—but it doesn’t automatically create new rhythms. Using a simple (and sweet) Daniel Tiger moment, we explore why insight alone isn’t enough—and how you can begin to take small, life-giving steps toward using your gifts in your real, everyday life. If you’ve ever felt stuck in the “I know this… but I’m not doing it” space, this one is for you. We’ll talk about: why your gifts might be easier to overlook than you thinkhow to start using them without overhauling your lifeand what it looks like to move from understanding → integration If you’re realizing you don’t fully know your gifts—or you’re not sure how to use them—my God-Given Gifts Chat is a simple, supportive place to start.

    38. When Understanding Your Wiring Becomes Second Nature

    What if the goal of understanding your personality isn’t to endlessly analyze yourself… but to understand your design well enough that it simply becomes part of the way you live? In this wrap-up episode of the temperament series, we’re talking about what integration actually looks like. ❎ Not constant self-analysis. ❎ Not obsessing over your strengths. ❎ Not trying to optimize yourself all day long. But becoming so aware of how God wired you that it starts shaping your rhythms, your choices, your relationships, and your filters in a natural, life-giving way. In this episode, I share: • Why understanding your wiring should eventually feel less like analysis and more like instinct • A personal example of how this has shown up in my own life • The story of a Beloved who moved from scattered and overextended to more settled and steady • How self-understanding can help you make clearer decisions about your time, energy, and responsibilities • Why the goal isn’t to think about your wiring forever — but to understand it well enough that you can stop thinking about it If this temperament series has helped you see yourself differently, I hope this episode helps you take the next step: integration. You don’t have to figure yourself out all alone. A God-Given Gifts Chat is a simple Voxer-based conversation where we explore your wiring, your current season, and one aligned next step you can actually carry into daily life. ❎ No pressure. ❎ No huge life overhaul. ❎ Just insight you can use. 👉 https://coffeechatsandyogamats.com/giftchat 💭Reflection to carry with you: Where has greater self-understanding already started changing the way you move through everyday life?

    37. The Artisan - When your enthusiasm feels misunderstood

    If you’ve ever been told you’re “too much,” too impulsive, too scattered, or too spontaneous — this episode is for you. Today we’re exploring the Sensing-Perceiving (SP) temperament, also known as the Artisan. Artisan women are: • Spontaneous • Action-oriented • Playful and bold • Highly adaptable • Present and responsive • Creative and resourceful You don’t just live in the moment — you respond to it. Your enthusiasm is not immaturity. Your love for novelty is not irresponsibility. Your spark is not random. It reflects something true about God. God creates. God delights. God celebrates. In this episode, we explore: • The strengths of the Artisan temperament • The shadow side of impulsivity and chasing stimulation • The difference between performing for applause and expressing from identity • Why your enthusiasm needs direction — not dimming • How to anchor your spontaneity in Christ without losing your spark I also share a personal story about my grandmother and how I realized I had misunderstood her wiring for years — and how much beauty I was missing by mislabeling it. Reflection Question: 💭 Where have you been dimming your enthusiasm because you feared being misunderstood? If you’re ready to channel your spark intentionally instead of apologizing for it, you can book a free God-Given Gift Chat. We’ll explore your wiring and one aligned next move that brings momentum without chaos. Voice + text through Voxer. Flexible. Conversational.

    36. The Guardian - If you’re tired of holding everything together

    If you’re a responsible, steady, dependable Christian woman who feels like you have to hold everything together, this episode is for you. Today we’re exploring the Guardian (Sensing-Judging / SJ) personality type — a temperament known for faithfulness, structure, reliability, and deep care for responsibility. We’ll talk about the strengths of the Guardian woman, the shadow side of overfunctioning and burnout, and how your steadiness reflects God’s faithfulness without becoming a burden you carry alone. In this episode, we explore: • How over-responsibility quietly turns into exhaustion • Why resentment is often a sign something needs to be shared, not shouldered • The difference between faithfulness and over-functioning • How internalized scripts (integrity = finishing, responsibility = saying yes) create pressure • What it looks like to reclaim your strengths without being ruled by them I also share the story of a Guardian woman I’ve coached — a capable, high-energy wife and mom who slowly realized her stress wasn’t coming from her circumstances… but from the internal pressure she was placing on herself. Her shift? From strength-as-duty → strength-as-choice. From silent contract → conscious offering. From perfectionism → self-trust. If you’ve ever quietly believed, “If I don’t do it, everything will fall apart,” this conversation will feel both steady and freeing. Reflection Question: 💭 Where are you carrying something you were never meant to carry alone? If you’re ready for support, you can book a free God-Given Gift Chat. We’ll gently sort through your current season, what’s yours to steward, what might need to be shared, and one grounded next step that supports you instead of drains you. Voice + text through Voxer. No pressure. No overhaul.
