Wants to find Joy, Peace and Purpose in Everyday
You and I are just everyday women. We have kids, jobs, communities we are a part of and a robust, loving life..... But we also have that heart call, that deeper yearning, whisper, of service, impact and spiritual fulfilment.
The thing is though, that impact, that deeper meaning, doesn't have to be, isn't desired to be, some grandiose "famous" recognizable name thing.... We just want to contribute daily, to those around us, in person, online, whatever.
I've grown tired of the sales pitch for success, the big revenues and numbers served....I know I make a difference, 1. just by being alive and 2. by truly being heart led in how I receive people (and myself).
See every interaction is an opportunity to glorify Christ (first & foremost) and as a result, to deepen your heart's frequency. to open your spirit more and more and have that everyday impact. Not to use it for marketing, but to benefit for you and those around you who then create a trickle effect as they go round being kinder, more purposeful and more in service rather than in sales.....
I am not discrediting big business, big revenue or any of that. I just want more voices to be heard from those of us who are of meaningful impact but you won't know our names across the globe, online, printed or otherwise. You will only know us from knowing us directly. From having shared an exchange, read a message, heard from someone else etc.
This is the powherfull impact of the everyday woman, the "ripple effect." Nothing fancy or big or wild, just raw, genuine and deeply connecting. So how can you leverage this magic, this power and this immediately accessible sense of purpose with out the need to build an empire? (ps Your Empire is yours, not defined by anyone else's metrics!!).
You know life is full of beautiful moments, even when it feels messy or overwhelming. For the everyday woman seeking more of herself—someone who wants to feel grounded, resilient, and deeply connected to life’s goodness—the journey begins within.
Let’s explore how you can cultivate joy, peace, and purpose every day, transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary.
1. Ground Yourself First
To respond to the world with grace, you need a firm foundation. Grounding practices connect you to the present moment and your inner strength. Here are some ways to anchor yourself:
Morning Rituals: Start each day with intention. Whether it’s journaling, meditating, or sipping your coffee slowly, create space for quiet reflection.
BE STILL with yourself
Mindful Breathing: Take a few deep breaths whenever you feel stressed. Inhale peace, exhale tension. This simple practice can bring you back to centre.
Set an alarm on your phone to "pattern interrupt" you throughout the day
Nature Connection: Spend time outside. Feel the ground beneath your feet, listen to the birds, and let nature remind you of life’s steady rhythm.
2. Embrace Life’s Goodness
Sometimes, we get so caught up in the hustle that we forget to notice how good life truly is. Cultivating gratitude shifts your perspective and deepens your appreciation for the present moment.
Gratitude Practice: At the end of each day, jot down three things you’re grateful for. Big or small, each blessing matters.
I keep a notebook at my bedside table, no excuses to skip it!
Savour Simple Pleasures: Relish the taste of your favourite meal, the sound of laughter, or the feel of sunshine on your skin. These moments are gifts.
Eat slower, move slower, pause more as you move about the day
Celebrate Progress: Acknowledge the small wins. Each step forward, no matter how tiny, is worth celebrating.
Your Trophy Wall! We are so trained in setting goals and striving ahead, but that discounts all the incredible things that have happened over time, pay attention to what HAS happened, as you create more.
3. Seek Joy Intentionally
Joy doesn’t always arrive uninvited; sometimes, you have to pursue it. By actively seeking joy, you cultivate a sense of playfulness and curiosity.
Do What Lights You Up: Rediscover activities that bring you happiness—dancing, painting, baking, or even a spontaneous sing-along.
Reading has come up often in my circle "I love reading but don't have time" *ahem, you are just not choosing the time for it....I keep a book at work for reading breaks and have reinstated my bedtime reading habit (on my 4th book since Dec 20!)
Connect With Others: Share laughter and meaningful conversations. Community is a powerful source of joy.
GO HANG OUT WITH FRIEND/S - women cannot survive life without each other! Need some SOLID women friends? Come to me, I will introduce you around.
Be Present: Joy is often found in the here and now. Let go of distractions and fully immerse yourself in the moment.
WE THINK TOOOOOO MUCH about everything! Just be with what's in front of you. The number of times I am reading to my daughter and she corrects me, my mind has split in 2, one auto reading and one wandering. I am working at this to stay PRESENT. I can't do everything at once, so I will do one thing deeply at a time.
4. Build Resilience and Faith
Life’s challenges are inevitable, but they’re also opportunities to grow stronger and deepen your trust in yourself and the journey.
Reframe Setbacks: Instead of seeing obstacles as failures, view them as lessons. Ask, “What can I learn from this?”
oh mama!!! bittersweet pill to swallo but I frame as it ultimate personal responsibility! You cant lose weight by not exercising and eating better. We play (lie to ourselves) in victim mode far more than we realize. Start to observe and break this pattern. Truly set yourself free from deceitful woe is me thoughts with the compare "what else could be true?"
Case in pint - my birthday. Plans were to start at 1 pm, then the group asked to change it to 2 pm. I got bent out of shape! "They don't care about me, why the change, I wanted 1 pm, now what!" I had to shake this off; no big deal, doesn't mean ANYTHING. I now had an extra hour home alone (hallelujah) and the day was still glorious. Get over it Mia! Sheesh!
Cultivate Faith: Trust that things are unfolding as they should. Faith—in yourself, in life, or in something greater—can be a powerful anchor.
I don't know how I got by without God.....!!!! I feel His presence, His GRACE and I tell ya, when I loooooooove on my daughter, I feel His love for me in ten fold. My faith makes everything more bearable. Find yours. be more than just you in this great big world!!!
Practice Self-Compassion: Be kind to yourself when things don’t go as planned. Speak to yourself with the same care you’d offer a friend.
Don't be little yourself, BE BIG YOURSELF! Corita Kent
DUDE why you so hard on yourself???? YOU ARE A TALENTED NECESSARY GIFT IN THIS WORLD!!!! When a negative thought comes, work on replacing it, or side-by-side-ing it with a loving thought.
I'll never get clients TO Each day is one day closer to meeting my dream clients
5. Live With Purpose
Purpose doesn’t have to be grand or world-changing. It can be as simple as showing up fully for yourself and those you love. EVERYDAY IS A CHANCE TO MAKE AN IMPACT.
What your core life values / principles? Let this guide your responses, actions and time.
Align Actions With Values: Let your choices reflect your priorities. When your actions align with your values, life feels more intentional.
Serve Others: Acts of kindness—big or small—add richness to your life and strengthen your sense of purpose. You never know who is waiting to be blessed by you, and as a result, to bless you as well!
This is the way to living in peaceful empowerment. You are capable of finding joy, peace, and purpose in every day. By grounding yourself, embracing life’s goodness, seeking joy, building resilience, and living with purpose, you can embody the truth that life is not just good—it’s extraordinary.
Each moment is an opportunity to deepen your connection to yourself and the world around you.
We are the everday women, making an impact, creating legacy and adding value to the world around us, "plainly", non famously and yet ever so meaningfully and necessary!!!

Foundation for Consistency: Habits provide a reliable framework for daily actions, ensuring steady progress toward long-term goals. As you grow your company, disciplined routines in productivity, decision-making, and self-care sustain momentum and help prevent burnout.
Reinforcement of Identity: Your habits embody your values and define your personal and professional identity. By fostering habits aligned with your vision for life and business, you shape your leadership style and cultivate a culture that reflects these principles.
Compounding Growth Over Time: Small, intentional habits yield transformative results through the power of compounding. By building yourself day by day, you create a purposeful, fulfilling, and holistic path to achieving meaningful goals in a way that resonates with your true self.
