At first I was mortified when my son was screaming for me to participate in the women’s arm wrestling competition lol (the winner’s section got to be dismissed next for the food trucks at an INCREDIBLE Thanksgiving service/evening/turkey bowl - games were a brilliant way to ease waiting in line and we were a break for the men’s finals!)

I told E, I want to FIND a man, not act like one lol.
That said, I work HARD in the gym to make my body strong.
Strong and feminine are not mutually exclusive!

I’ve never arm wrestled before in my life lol. I didn’t even know what I was supposed to do with the pegs lol. But I’m happy to say | CRUSHED the competition!! Haha AND I was at least twice their age!!

Though kinda nervous when the first Lady came in super aggressive and out for blood, it actually felt good to see and feel strength.

If you only knew what my body had survived and overcome in the last 2 decades, you’d understand better 1) just how much it took for me to walk up there to begin with ha - (ask lol) and 2) what a miracle it is to have that strength!

Me doing that was FUN and E sure is proud!!
But it’s SO much bigger and evidence of how far I’ve come.
Thanks Brandon Blair & Langston Baptist Church staff for an AMAZING night and leading well!!
Things are just different here. You always remind us, “It’s Jesus!” We’ve never had so much fun while being loved and challenged to grow. Grateful!

Your identity MUST be in something you can’t lose and that can’t be taken away from you. No sport fits that bill. Once you learn who you are OUTSIDE of sport performance, you free yourself up to play and perform at your maximum potential. When it’s no longer who you are, but something you do, THAT is when you become UNSTOPPABLE!!

“A Saturday race is a Friday decision.“

I adapted this quote from something I heard senior pastor Brandon Blair say a while back,
“Sunday church is a Saturday decision.“

In talking with an athlete recently, we discussed how when things get hard — we don’t “feel” like pushing, aren’t getting the outcome we hoped or trained for, something more shiny and fun comes along — and we let our feelings dictate our actions we never achieve our highest potential.

But when we are disciplined, and decide ahead of time what we’re going to do, we keep our word to ourselves and feelings become irrelevant. We are then able to push through and continue to show up curious about what our process and potential can be.

What you decide to do today will determine what results you are capable of tomorrow.

Doesn’t matter if it’s a coach, professor, Sunday school teacher, family member or a combination of other roles. You don’t have to stick around for the wounding.

Know your worth and don’t let insecure bullying from another person change that. And if you’re a guy, when you see someone being disrespected, especially a woman, about it.

Women wouldn’t have to be so strong if they didn’t have to be…

“You have nothing to prove, only glory to give.”

Even most of my Athletes who aren’t super spiritual or who may be burned out (hurt) by religion, acknowledge that their talent came from something/Someone outside of and higher than themselves.

For my Christ following Athletes who are committed to being all-in, trusting the process and letting God handle the expectations and outcomes, performance becomes less and less about them and more and more about the God who created them with this competitive drive and unique ability. They’ve worked and trained hard to become the 2%. Now, the only job they have is to trust their training and give God the glory through it all.

You’re going to give glory somewhere: God, a parent, a coach, yourself… Knowing your “Why,” behind doing what you do, will help direct where you shine that light.

𝐉𝐨𝐞 𝐄𝐡𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐧 taught me how to shift from a 𝒈𝒐𝒐𝒅 to an 𝑬𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒆 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 and I’ve loved working with him on the Inside Out Initiative.

I always knew I cared deeply for people, and each of my clients/athletes. But when their overall well-being became what I asked about first, not their performance, they became 𝗨𝗡𝗦𝗧𝗢𝗣𝗣𝗔𝗕𝗟𝗘 on and off the field.

Surround yourself with 𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙡 people: coaches, pastors, leaders, friends and family who love you in the peaks and the valleys not just when you’re crushing life! And, when you notice someone being transactional with you, feel free to call an audible and walk away.

Frustration can often breed more of the same.
Sometimes you need to take a step back, reset, and begin again.

This morning I was doing my normal Monday morning deadlift routine. I got in a right mindset, stepped up, shins to the bar, and started my routine… but my strap slipped. I could’ve continued but I was aware I was starting to over think the lift and that rarely ends well with heavy weights. I took a step back, regrouped and went again this time with ease and confidence. The rest of the lift was great.

Sometimes we need to step back for a reset. Whether a conversation, project, series of decisions… We need fresh eyes, a new perspective, a better, focused mindset.
