Tune in to this amazing interview with my friend and Soror Tracie Wright who has a passion for empowering young girls and making a difference in her community! She is a life coach, author, mentor, encourager and entrepreneur. In this episode she shares her story of finding purpose later in life and how God has blessed her to start a non profit organization "More To You" and a soon to be life coaching business for those who aspire to become life coaches. She is doing her thang y'all and I can't wait for you to hear all about how she is walking in her purpose.  Moreover, you'll hear how she overcame fear, doubt and the unknown through mentors, a life coach, positive self-talk and prayer. I am confident you'll learn something from her story that will inspire you to take a step of faith in your life. If she can do it, so can you! As she proclaimed in the interview, "do it afraid" especially if it is something God has nudged you to do. Remember, your blessings aren't just for you, they are for others! Tracie leaves us with this critical nugget: take "I Can't" and "I Give Up" out of your vocabulary. You can do all things through Christ. Period! Check out her book on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Empower-Emerge-empowering-emerging-action/dp/0578930196/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=tracie+wright&qid=1647823734&sr=8-1.  Connect with her on Facebook at Tracie Michelle and Instagram at Tracie Michelle_.

Welcome to the Walking Out Your Purpose Podcast. If you are new I am so glad you're here. Please stick around, like, comment and subscribe. The purpose squad loves learning, growing and sharing over here. For my faithful purpose fam returning to the show, welcome back. I so appreciate your support. Together we are going to walk in our purpose and leave an indelible mark on this earth. I just know it! Today you are in for a treat. On today's episode, we are going deep into discovering our life's purpose with these five key questions: 1. Who are you? 2. What do you do? 3. Who do you do it for?  4. What do these people want and need? 5. How do they change as a result of you?  I know some of these questions may look basic but nah! They will take some time to answer truthfully and holistically and it starts with a self-audit...you have to spend some time with yourself.  We are putting in the work in this episode. It is inspired by a recent Tedx talk I listened to and a book I'm reading by Carla Harris called "Expect to Win". As we get in tune with who we really are, we become more confident, courageous and able to contribute at our best. Doesn't that sound good??!! Yes...I know it does. We all want our lives to matter and we want to add value. So listen in and let me know your thoughts below. Feel free to share in the comments your answers to the questions. I'd love to hear from you.  I hope you enjoy the episode.  Please like, comment, share, subscribe and follow the podcast on all platforms.  Remember we are all here for a reason and as long as we're breathing, God has something for us to do.

S4 | Ep 2: A Servants Heart

S4 | Ep 2: A Servants Heart

Tune in on this special day as we commemorate and celebrate the life of an icon Dr. Martin Luther King Jr who gave his life to the civil rights movement and a fairer world. We also look to the Word of God for inspiration and a blueprint on serving others and why that is important to God. You don't want to miss this. Here are a few of the scriptures and Dr. King quotes shared:  Proverbs 19:17 Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward them for what they have done.  Acts 20:35  In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.  Matthew 5:16  In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.  Hebrews 6:10  God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.  Philippians 2:4 Not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.  Galatians 5:13 You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh ; rather, serve one another humbly in love.  Matthew 23:11 The greatest among you will be your servant. Matthew 20:28 28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”  Romans 12:9-13 9 Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. 10 Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. 11 Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. 12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. 13 Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.  Dr King Quotes:  “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”  “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. The true neighbor will risk his position, his prestige, and even his life for the welfare of others.”  “The time is always right to do what is right.”  “Everyone can be great because everyone can serve”  Here are a few actions for you to take  1. Do a self assessment on your life, are you doing anything for others or only building yourself up?  2. Spring into action - volunteer, join a service organization, get involved in ministry, help a neighbor even if you have to wear your mask…no excuses!  3. Be thankful and grateful to God for what you do have and bless others with your gifts, your talents, your abilities…as I always say..someone needs you and someone is on the other side of your YES.   You are here for a reason. Go walk in your purpose!   Please like, comment, follow, subscribe and share. You can also check out my YT channel here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGdIqGrPfMHyeYZtX35gRLQ

S2 | Ep 43: Whose Court Are You On? #TeamJesus

This week on the Walking Out Your Purpose podcast, we are discussing God's presence and the importance of starting with Him before we embark on anything. It's critical that we look at these questions closely: *Are you yearning for God?  *Are you giving Him your all?  *Are you desiring and seeking His will?  *Whose court are you really on?  *Do you seek Him in all decisions?  *Do you give Him the praise and glory deserved?  *Are you more focused on the things of the world than God?  *Whose voice is louder in your life? Your own, your friends, or God?   If you feel lost or feel like you're searching for something and just can't seem to find it...this episode is for you. It will challenge you to self-evaluate and self-correct so that you can receive clarity, security, safety and purpose!   The only way you'll truly discover your purpose and your calling is by being in God's presence on His courts - join the winning team! Stop worrying about your own desires and get into God's will. Once you're in alignment with Him, you will discover your purpose on earth and accomplish great works for the Kingdom.  In this episode you'll also hear personal testimony and the stories of biblical characters like Job, Solomon and even Jesus. I pray it blesses your life and you seek to be in His presence daily to get direction. Remember our purpose is to bring Him glory and to serve others. Enjoy and feel free to like, subscribe and share with a friend, family or foe.  If you'd like to watch this or other episodes on YT, click here: https://linktr.ee/walkingoutyourpurpose #TeamJesus #Who'sCourtsAreYouOn

S2 | Ep 41: Finding Purpose in a Virtual World | Mother Talks to 10 Year Old Son

This is a special episode on the eve of my son turning 10 years old. We talk about his walk with God, his talents, purpose and gifting and how he can be used for the glory of God. Out of the mouth of babes you will hear what God means to him. He also shares authentically about areas that he needs to improve in and how God can help him through any test or trial. We did not rehearse this episode so I was really impressed with some of his answers. For all the parents out there, keep teaching Jesus and requiring your children to study the Word ... they are listening. As the bible says when we teach our kids the ways of the Lord when they are old they will not depart from it.  You can also check out the video to this episode and countless others of the Walking Out Your Purpose Podcast on YT by clicking here: https://linktr.ee/walkingoutyourpurpose I appreciate your support and would ask that you like, comment, share and follow us on all the platforms including Facebook and YouTube.

Have you ever felt God shifting? How did you respond? Well our guest today Mrs Andreana Holliman shares her powerful testimony of listening to God, pivoting during the shift and how her purpose was birthed from pain. You will hear everything from being raised by a single mom, family conflict, toxic relationships, being kidnapped to being bitter BUT you don't want to miss how she's leveraging all of this to help others avoid dangerous pitfalls. The way she is giving back through her role at the Boys & Girls Club of Broward County but also in ministry and in home life is remarkable. There is no mountain too high that she can't climb without Jesus on her side. She is truly an overcomer and a powerful force to be reckoned with. Furthermore, she is working on becoming a Life Coach and I couldn't be more excited for her.

S2 | Ep 38: It's Time to Level Up

S2 | Ep 38: It's Time to Level Up

I'm sure you've read it many times: Matthew 17:14-20 but do you believe it? Do you practice it? This scripture reminds us of the expectations Jesus has for us in the faith department. In vs 20 He says: “You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible." Everytime I read this I get excited. Knowing that through Christ I can overcome any mountain is such a great feeling. It is a joy to be in God's hands...He got us! So, whether you're starting a ministry, starting a new job, launching a podcast, opening a business or expanding responsibilities - you have to evolve to handle the magnitude of your gift.  God wants you to Level Up in your faith so that you can accomplish what He has you here on earth to do but also so that you know how to respond when trials and challenges come. That said, tune in to this week's episode to:  1) learn how to Level Up 2) hear about biblical characters and how they responded to their tests and  3) understand the importance of faith and belief in your life, in your business, in your ministry and your job.  It will bless your life and I can't wait to hear about your success!

S2 | Ep 37: Pregnant with Purpose, It's Time To Deliver with Dominique Jones, M.A.M.A. Birthing Services

Listen in to the conversation with Dominique and I as we discuss the purpose God gave her and how it took her being laid off after working 13 years for a non profit organization in a totally different area to bring it to life. She could have taken that time off to find another job but she chose to be obedient to God and now she is successfully walking in her calling (even during a pandemic) serving expecting mothers, partners and people around the world who want to support expecting mothers. In today's episode, you'll learn more about being a birth worker, how's she fighting for birth justice and the staggering statistics of how black women are dying disproportionately (3-4 times more often) to the majority. Dominique will also talk about how important it is for us to be educated and to support our sisters during the birthing process. This is something she is very passionate about and feels strongly that God led her to this place because she asked Him. Many times we don't ask our Father directly about our purpose but if and when we do, He will answer us! I left the conversation inspired to do more in my calling and to trust God in everything. So, please make sure you go to her website to download the free resources she discussed and to sign up for her doula services if needed. For those who are not expecting, please share with others you know in need of this information.
