  • Small Steps, Big Changes: The Daily Habit That Transforms Your Life

    It’s easy to dream big and set ambitious goals for our personal growth, career, or spiritual journey. But too often, we get stuck in the quicksand of good intentions, waiting for the “perfect” moment to act. Here’s the hard truth: intentions alone don’t create progress – action does.

    The beauty of taking a single small step every day is that it creates momentum. It transforms our goals from distant possibilities into tangible realities, one choice at a time. Want to improve your fitness? Start with a ten-minute walk. Hoping to reconnect with a loved one? Write that quick “thinking of you” message today. Want to write your first book? Write that first page. These little actions may seem insignificant in the moment, but strung together over time, they carve the path to success.

    Without action, even the clearest vision can fade into stagnation. The opportunities we let pass today may not be waiting tomorrow. Each tiny step forward pushes us closer to our potential – and it’s in the daily discipline of action that we find growth, fulfilment, and change.

    So here’s your challenge: What’s one small step you can take today, right now, to move closer to your dreams?

    Don’t wait for perfection; just start.

    Take that step – and then another tomorrow.

    Before you know it, you’ll look back and see just how far you’ve come.

    The journey is worth it. Let’s go!

  • The Gift of midwives – Delivering destiny

    This morning, as I lingered in prayer, I found myself calling God by one of His beautiful names: Baby Giver. Initially, I prayed for those longing for the blessing of children, but then the Holy Spirit nudged me gently, reminding me – I am pregnant. Not with a physical child, but with something extraordinary: destiny, purpose, and the plans and thoughts of God concerning my life.

    In that moment of reflection, the name Baby Giver resonated deeply within me. It speaks of a God who doesn’t just place dreams or visions within us – He entrusts us with His plans, His “babies,” if you will. The baby has already been given. Yet, as with any pregnancy, we cannot deliver alone. Midwives are essential, present to help us bring forth the life and legacy we’ve been entrusted with.

    Midwives: Who are they?

    Midwives are those who support, guide, and encourage us in our most vulnerable and crucial moments. They cheer us on when we falter, hold us steady when we feel weak, and remind us to push when giving up seems tempting. Midwives come in many forms: mentors, family, friends, even divine connections at just the right time. They share in the labour of love, ensuring that what God has placed inside of us comes to fruition.

    Identifying your midwives

    Who are the midwives in your life? They may be individuals who have spoken life into your dreams, offered wisdom, or stood alongside you in prayer. Often, they are the quiet encouragers, the ones who see your potential even when you don’t and believe in the beauty of what you’re carrying.

    Take a moment to reflect and identify these people. Perhaps God has placed someone in your path today to remind you that you’re not alone in your labour. Recognising your midwives is vital, as it’s a step toward gratitude and growth.

    A season of thanks

    Today, I want to honour and thank the midwives in my life—those who have helped me push through fear, doubt, and uncertainty. You’ve been the hands and voices that reminded me to keep going when the weight of my “pregnancy” felt overwhelming. You are my gifts from God, sent to ensure that the destiny I carry comes into the world safely.

    Encouragement for others

    To anyone reading this, know that you, too, have midwives. Open your heart to recognize them and allow their support to propel you forward. And remember, you may also be a midwife for someone else—don’t underestimate the power of your encouragement, prayers, or presence in someone else’s journey.

    Together, we labour, push, and deliver the extraordinary plans God has placed within us. Let’s move forward with gratitude for those who journey alongside us, and courage to embrace the destiny we’re meant to birth.

  • Fuel for the soul

    How reflection and accountability ignite the fire within.

    Last week Thursday was one of those packed days—back-to-back meetings that seemed endless. By the time work was done, all I wanted to do was sink into my duvet and let the world fade away. But I had a commitment to keep—my monthly catchup with my accountability partner. And despite the fatigue, I knew it was worth showing up. Why? Because this meeting wasn’t just another chat—it was the spark I needed to set the pace for April 2025.

    Accountability isn’t a chore or a checkbox; it’s a gift we give ourselves. Once a week, we connect over the phone. Once a month, we meet in person—sharing a light meal, a few drinks, and deeper conversations about our goals, visions, and progress. It’s not just about what’s next; it’s about celebrating how far we’ve already come and learning from the journey so far.

    Last Thursday was no different. As we reflected on the highs and lows of the first quarter, we listened, encouraged, and motivated each other. We celebrated our wins, learned from our losses, and set clear plans for the month ahead. I left that meeting energised—like the weight of the day had melted away, replaced with clarity and excitement.

    When I got home, my mind was alive with ideas. New video scripts, fresh articles, and even key points for my next book started to take shape in my head. It felt like the fire in my soul had been reignited, reminding me why I do what I do as an accountability coach and mentor.

    Here’s the truth: No matter how tired or busy you are, investing in accountability and reflection is never wasted. These moments of pause and connection are where growth happens. It’s where we reignite our passion, realign with our purpose, and find the courage to keep moving forward.

    As April unfolds, I’m ready to take on what’s next with renewed energy and a clear vision. How about you? Who holds you accountable, and how often do you pause to reflect?
