Take Healthy Risks

It is human nature to reach your comfort zone and remain there. This can take place in all parts of your life. You can get to a certain point with your finances, health, relationships, and weight, and you remain for the long haul since change is risky. But sometimes, you need to accept change for growth.

Growth means you may have stretch. It would be best if you reached outside your comfort zone. Usually, when women sense a challenge to step away from what is known and leave it behind, they start to retreat.

Women all have perspectives on what is attainable and what is out of their reach in our personal and professional lives. But, taking risks and making mistakes are essential learning experiences. And healthy risk-taking can build confidence!

You might list dozens of ways why it is better to stick with what you know than dive into that unknown. You may want to go back to school or start your own business, and you have wanted it for a long time, but ...

Sometimes women hold onto a habit simply because it is something they have always done or how they have thought for years. An example of this would be saving money and controlling your finances but consistently blowing your budget on the spur of the moment buys.

You may very well think one way and even acknowledge out loud that you want to break a bad habit, but then you turn right around and give in to behaviors that sabotage your aspirations. You know what you are doing (or not doing) that holds you back from living your best life.

It is not easy to tackle the worst part about yourself. But if you do not acknowledge what is going on with you, you will not alter it. Recognizing that self-defeating habit is where you start.

Recognize how it is keeping you back from experiencing your goals. For example, if you would like to go on a nice vacation but always spend your vacation fund, you sabotage your plan.

Once you identify that self-defeating habit, you can move into sel...

As you learn new skills, it betters you as a person. It fills you with the self-confidence that you can achieve everything you set your mind to accomplish. The skills can be something like learning how to manage your time better.

"In a fast-moving, competitive world, being able to learn new skills is one of the keys to success. It's not enough to be smart — you need always to be getting smarter," says Heidi Grant Halvorson, a motivational psychologist and author.

Many women miss chances to grow as a person because of poor time management and how stretched their day is for time. They often ignore possibilities that come their way or immediately dismiss them, thinking they cannot possibly juggle anything else.

Be sure the skill either solves a problem you are facing or is directly applicable to your life. Be as specific as you can. This will give you the incentive to learn the skill.

Here are some easy skills that every woman should learn:

• create, maintain, and stick t

Boundaries are the limits on which women live, based on what they are not willing to put up with in a place or with another person. Setting a boundary means you impose constraints on what is appropriate.

These constraints can refer to what you will take for your emotional and physical self. If you have a boundary, it feels a lot like self-care - since it is. It implies that you recognize that what you need to be whole and healthy is equally necessary as what others may need.

Boundaries safeguard your space. It means that your opinions do not vary just because someone else feels another way. Giving boundaries means saying no when something crosses the line of what is okay with you.

An illustration of this could be a woman who does not want to be around someone constantly creating family drama. So, she does not spend any more time with them than necessary. But, another relative thinks that behavior should be tolerated and tries to nag or belittle the woman into believing the ...

Consistency is the cornerstone of personal growth, health, and spiritual maturity. For Christian women striving to live a life that honors God, it’s not just about making a one-time change but building a life of steady, faithful habits. Whether in our prayer life, health practices, or relationships, consistency rooted in God’s truth helps us stay on the path He has set for us. In this blog, we’ll explore the importance of consistency, how the Truth Mindset can help us build sustainable healthy habits, and how to rely on God’s strength when we feel like giving up.

1 Corinthians 9:24-25 - "Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things."

 

This passage calls us to exercise self-discipline and consistency in pursuing godliness. Just as athletes train and practice regularly to win a race, we must be consistent in our spiritual walk, healthy habits, a...

In today’s world, the voices of culture are loud, conflicting, and often deceptive. Many Christian women are left feeling overwhelmed, stuck, and uncertain about who they are and what God truly wants for them. The pursuit of freedom and transformation feels just out of reach, no matter how many books are read, podcasts are played, or resolutions are made.

But real, lasting change does not begin with striving.
It begins with truth.

What is a Truth Mindset?

A Truth Mindset is a way of thinking that is rooted, anchored, and consistently renewed by the Word of God. It means intentionally replacing lies, limiting beliefs, and cultural confusion with the unchanging truth of Scripture. It is the decision to let God’s voice become the loudest voice in your life.

When your mind is aligned with God’s truth, your life begins to reflect that truth — in your emotions, choices, relationships, and purpose.

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
— John 8:32, KJV

From Lie-Locked to Truth-Led: 

By Coach Sandra | Life Coach for Ladies | Truth Mindset™ Strategist

In a culture where feelings are elevated above facts and opinion often trumps truth, Christian women are facing a quiet crisis. We are bombarded with subtle lies—sugar-coated, hashtag-approved, and emotionally persuasive. The result? Far too many daughters of God are living lie-locked lives without realizing it.

But what if you could recognize the lies, root them out, and replace them with eternal truth? That is what the Truth Mindset™ is all about.

“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” – John 17:17 (KJV)

 

🌪 What Is a Post-Truth Culture?

We live in a time where subjective truth (“my truth”) often takes priority over God’s unchanging truth. The term post-truth simply means truth is no longer the measuring stick—feelings are.

This leads many Christian women to:

• Doubt their identity

• Diminish their voice

• Chase validation instead of vision

• Co

"You do not have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great." – Zig Ziglar

We all have them—those little habits that started small but now feel like cement.
Whether it is procrastination, negative self-talk, mindless scrolling, unhealthy eating, or skipping time with God, bad habits can quietly pull us off course from the life we are called to live.

As Christian women, we are not called to live in cycles of defeat. We are called to renew our minds, walk in truth, and cultivate habits that reflect who we are in Christ.

But how do we do that practically?

It starts with awareness, a Truth Mindset™, and spirit-led strategy.

🔄 Why Habits Matter (and Why They Are Hard to Break)

Habits are automated behaviors—actions we do with little thought because they have been repeated over time.
But just because something is automatic does not mean it is permanent.

Bad habits are ...

The Truth Mindset™ Path to Personal Growth

By Coach Sandra | Life Coach for Ladies | Truth Mindset™ Strategist

Have you ever felt stuck—like no matter how much you try, something invisible keeps holding you back?

You have dreams. You know there is more. But something inside whispers, “You are not enough,” “You will just fail again,” or “This is just how life is.”

That invisible barrier has a name: Lie-Locked Living.

And it is time to break free.

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” – John 8:32 

 

🔐 What Is Lie-Locked Living?

Lie-Locked Living happens when you build your life around false beliefs. These lies often start in childhood, through pain, shame, trauma, or repeated criticism. Over time, they become internal scripts that influence your choices, emotions, and relationships.

Common lies women believe:

• “I am not good enough.”

• “I have to earn love.”

• “God uses other people, not me.”

• “If I try, I will fail.”

• “I can
