Fear Is Not The Boss of You
Being empowered as a woman means recognizing and embracing your God-given strength, abilities, and unique qualities.
It means having the confidence to pursue your goals and dreams, and to stand up for yourself and others. Being brave in who you are requires self-awareness and the willingness to be true to yourself, even in the face of societal pressure or expectations.
It means celebrating your individuality and taking pride in your accomplishments, while also advocating for equality and justice for all women.
The book Fear Is Not the Boss of You: How to Get Out of Your Head and Live the Life You Were Made For by Author Jennifer Allwood, came at the most perfect season in my life. Her message tells us of how God wants and requires us, as women, to move forward without fear. We are called to rise up and be the women we are called to be. We were not meant to stay stuck.
One of the most famous Bible verses about being beautifully and wonderfully made is found in Psalm 139:14, which says:
“I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.”
This verse reminds us that we are each a unique and intentional creation of God, designed with purpose and care. It encourages us to celebrate our individuality and to give thanks to God for the amazing work of creation that he has done in our lives.
Let’s encourage and empower each other as the women we are.
Share a quality you are most proud of and encourage another amazing woman.

Hey Friend, Welcome to a part of my small world. Because this is called the "About Me" Page, I probably should say a few things about me. Right? Here goes.... I was a Certified Child Development Specialist for over twenty years, while working with infants, toddlers, Pre-K and Head Start..... I am now a Certified (Christian) Breakthrough Life Coach through Life Breakthrough Academy. I could say so much more between the dot, dot, dots...but I'll spare you the boredom. LOL I am the founder of -Her Journey Towards Change- for women who are (for whatever reason) on their journey towards change. I believe everyone needs that 'go to' person in facilitating change. But, sadly, not everyone does. I know what it's like trying to figure life out but can't seem to get past the 'stuck' mindset. The first step to becoming 'unstuck' is being truthful with yourself. Believe me...I know. This is why I started 'Her Journey Towards Change.' I have a passion and purpose for serving God and for serving women. My hope is to provide you with a valuable service in finding clarity in your struggles, accountability in reaching your goals, assisting with strategies through guidance and support, focus on your God-given talents and unique skills, offer positive insights and new perspectives and eliminate the negativity that might be pulling you down. I truly believe God has given women a uniqueness like nothing else in this world. I also believe when we, as women, understand our identity in Christ, we can know our purpose. And in spite of our challenges, we can live in faith with the hope and joy God desires for us. ~Born and raised as a coal miner's daughter in North Central West Virginia is what keeps me humble. My influence as a Christian, wife, mother and grandmother gives me purpose. Living my life to the fullest and making each day count is what keeps me fulfilled. Using my God-given talents for others simply makes me happy...and living for God is what makes me whole.~
