Like literally everything that looked like a weakness about my personality, character and thought processes, He happily used to impact others.
Now overall, I was cool with "the weaknesses" because I couldn't be anyone else but myself. I just never imagined those things would be used in a world that screamed everything opposite of me was "the way to success."
Oh but, "there is a way which seemeth right unto man, but ... " Well, you can read the rest of that in Prov. 14:12
God has smiled on me. His word has literally been a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
Today I provide support to the everyday, extraordinary, soft, strong and courageous woman who is rising in her thinking and influence. I do this via coaching, group mentorship, live videos, events, teaching, and most importantly... by example.
Can I say, I looooooove what I do! It's amazing what happens after you surrender. Oh, and it turns out those "weaknesses" were actually my divinely given SUPERPOWERS.
