When the Hustle no Longer Satisfies…. The NEW Call of a Woman’s Heart.

2015 SYTBlog0002B


I had a talk with a dear friend recently, and she is a “POWER Player,” a woman at the top of her game. My friend shared with me that she was up for a major promotion, one that would literally catapult her career to an entirely new level, but as she spoke, I heard it, the subtle disconnection and dullness in her voice as she talked about this new opportunity. So I asked her, “Is this what you really want?” She paused and said: Not really. I’m thinking about the LONG hours I’ll have to work and I’ve already paid my hustle dues. I honestly long for simplicity in my life; I want to create something I love and make money by my own rules, I have nothing left to prove.


Many women feel the same as my friend. We want MORE and yet we desire LESS. More freedom, more love, more passion, more abundance, less stress, less struggle, less hustle…. We are being called to “still waters” to restore our souls to purpose, dignity and new strength.


SOUL Reflection Questions:



Have you been so busy doing for others that you’ve forgotten what was important to you?
Have you been so focused on the hustle that you’ve neglected the woman you were called to be ?
Are you living a life of truth and prosperity from your being or are you caught up in the rat race of striving and proving?

Our hearts are leading us into new territory…


In her feminine design, a woman needs times of freedom and rest. We need time to reflect, nest and create. We need time to nurture our soul and our surroundings. Many of us have neglected a core part of our feminine being as we’ve submitted to the old masculine system of “hustle, work, strive, achieve, hustle work, strive, achieve.” But the NEW Call is leading us to look within and be honest about what we truly desire…


Are You Driven or Are You Called?


Our sense of worth can become falsely connected to the public accolades and esteem we receive from outer roles, power positions and titles. Yet the calling creates a lasting legacy, authentic success anchored by love. Gratefully, I am no longer driven, I am called. Through my calling, I’ve created a lifestyle of beauty, ease, wealth and soul-level abundance. I let God lead.


When Sleeping women wake mountains move. –Chinese Proverb


There is a voice calling us to wake up ladies, the tide is shifting, the season has changed. The new call will dare you to look within and honor the truth. Listen. Pay attention. Your heart is calling…
