One of the most powerful moments in my coaching career was when a client said, “I’ve never said that out loud before.” She sat there stunned – and so did I. Not because it was a shocking confession. But because speaking it – finally – brought healing. Listening Creates Sacred Spaces When we listen well,…
How True Leadership Starts with Listening When I first started leading, I thought leadership meant making decisions and inspiring people. And yes, those are part of it. But over the years, I learned something far more powerful: true leadership begins with listening. Listening is more than hearing words. It’s creating space where someone feels safe,…
We hear the client with our ears, a passive activity, but we listen to them and formulate our responses, our powerful questions, and calls to actions that we hear from them and the Holy Spirit.
The Truth About Church Hurt and Church Wounds with Pamela Mertz | Strong Tower Mental Health Podcast There was a lot of misinformation about who God truly is. There are many wounded and hurt people in the church AND Jesus loves the church. God calls all things to work together for good but God doesn’t…
As I continue to walk this valley of the shadow of my mother’s death with the Lord Himself, I am more deeply aware of the love He has for me. This love, this substance that scholars and theologians have tried to define and describe for all of time, has manifested in so many tangible ways…
It has been a while since I have taken the time to sit and collect my thoughts into print to share. So much has happened, and it’s been a season like no other in my life. Like many in the world today, there are multiple crises happening all at one time, and it can be…
Submitting to the Holy Spirit in Coaching This week I was privileged to be able to speak with Joe McGarry, at Christian Coaches Network International. On this podcast I am talking about how we submit ourselves to the work of the Holy Spirit in coaching. I also give an insight to my upcoming presentation at…

Welcome to my blog!
I have begun this blog to have a place to share some of the things God has shown me throughout my life. This is a small space for reflection and awareness that this isn’t all there is, and that our lives are not just random happenstance. There is purpose, and reasons, if we pause long enough to look, rest and reflect. I hope that as I continue to share with you in this blog that you will begin to see the Grand Design in your own life more clearly.
