311. The Thing You Think Disqualifies You Is the Very Thing That Makes You Powerful For years, I believed my past disqualified me. I thought my mistakes, my upbringing, even my ADHD brain made me less-than. And more recently, I’ve faced health challenges that left me wondering if I could still lead, teach, and serve the way I wanted to. But here’s what I’ve learned: those exact things—my quirks, my struggles, the parts of me I used to hide—are what make me relatable, believable, and powerful. They are what qualify me.

311. The Thing You Think Disqualifies You Is the Very Thing That Makes You Powerful

For years, I believed my past disqualified me. I thought my mistakes, my upbringing, even my ADHD brain made me less-than. And more recently, I’ve faced health challenges that left me wondering if I could still lead, teach, and serve the way I wanted to. But here’s what I’ve learned: those exact things—my quirks, my struggles, the parts of me I used to hide—are what make me relatable, believable, and powerful. They are what qualify me.

In this episode, I share:

How I’ve shifted from performing to embodying who I really am.
Why moving from consumption to creation has changed everything.
The powerful shift from hustle to flow that has allowed me to do meaningful work with more ease and joy.

I believe God is so good at taking what we see as flaws or limitations and turning them into gifts we can share with the world. So, I want you to ask yourself: what’s the thing you’ve been tempted to hide? What if that’s the very thing God wants to use in you?

✨ Plus, I’ll tell you all about our Behind the Scenes Experience and the upcoming Next Level Life Summit happening August 20th. This is your chance to see what it really looks like to create a meaningful, abundant life—and to join me for a day of encouragement and transformation.
