Have you ever imagined sitting before God one day, and He asks you a question that stops you in your tracks?
"Why didn’t you live a fuller, more purposeful life?"
And then, with all the love and grace He has, He shows you a vision of the person you could have been—the version of you who didn’t hold back. The one who fearlessly used her gifts and talents, touched countless lives, and made a real impact in this world. Not just your friends, family, or those close to you, but people far beyond your immediate circle who needed what you have to offer.
Now, that is a terrifying thought. And I’ll be honest, it’s something I think about often. It’s the kind of realization that stirs up an urgent desire in me to change my beliefs, to live out my purpose, and to help others do the same. Because for me, there is nothing scarier than meeting my Creator and realizing that I didn’t even scratch the surface of my potential.
Purpose and Profit: They Belong Together
Too often, we separate purpose and profit, as though they’re meant to exist in different worlds. We’ve been taught that living out our purpose is a noble, selfless act, while making money is seen as selfish or somehow “dirty.”
But what if we’ve been wrong?
What if your purpose and profit are meant to go hand in hand? What if the reason you haven’t stepped fully into your calling is because of beliefs that have been ingrained in you about money—that it will change you, that it's not part of a spiritual life, or that you don’t deserve it?
Let me tell you something: Purpose and profit are not enemies; they are partners. When you embrace both, you gain the resources to serve even more people and live the life you were meant to live.
Are You Holding Back?
Maybe you've tried to start that business, pursue further education, or invest in something you’re passionate about. Maybe you've worked tirelessly in a job where your boss doesn’t appreciate you, leaving you feeling small and insignificant. Somewhere along the line, you might have given up or settled because it felt safer.
I get it. Fear has a way of keeping us comfortable. But comfort is a trap that prevents us from becoming who we were meant to be.
A Wake-Up Call: Ask Yourself This Question
Here’s a tough question, and I want you to be brutally honest with yourself:
If you were to meet your Maker today, would you be proud of the life you've lived?
Are you using the gifts, talents, and knowledge He’s given you to their fullest extent? Or are you holding back, settling for less because of fear, limiting beliefs, or past failures?
If that question unsettles you, then you’re not alone. But this moment of discomfort can also be a turning point—a wake-up call to step into the life you were created for.
It’s Time to Break Free and Step Into Your Purpose
I’m here to tell you that it’s never too late to change your beliefs, embrace your purpose, and pursue the profit that aligns with it. Your dreams, gifts, and talents were not given to you just for the sake of having them. They are tools meant to serve others and create the life you desire.
Here’s the truth: You are capable of more. And deep down, you know it too.
It's time to break free from limiting beliefs about money, fear of failure, and self-doubt. It's time to go after what you were made for. Let’s pursue the kind of life where, when the time comes, we can sit before God with joy, knowing that we lived boldly, generously, and purposefully.
The Next Step: Transforming Beliefs and Taking Action
Changing your life starts with changing your beliefs. If you’re ready to align your purpose with profit, I’m here to help guide you. You don't have to do it alone. Together, we can create a plan to use your gifts, step into your true calling, and serve others while building the life you deserve.

It's time to stop holding back. Let's move forward with purpose and intentionality. Are you ready?
