3801 Create Your Own Energy Aug 26, 2025

Show notes

Why is motivation such a beast to tame? Because the world keeps spinning faster while you’re left stuck in the muck, wanting to move but unable to find the spark. You hold a goal so close it keeps you awake at night, yet when it’s time to act, you hit a wall of mental exhaustion. Life never hits pause. Between nonstop demands and technology pulling your focus every second, mental burnout isn’t just common — it’s expected. So, if outside inspiration has run dry, maybe it’s time for a radical idea: create your own energy.

That’s right. Relying on bursts of motivation from a pep talk, a quote, or an external push is playing a losing game. You’ll keep waiting for something that’s not coming.

But what if you flipped the script and became your own powerhouse of momentum? The truth is, you don’t have to be a mood magician or a life hack guru to pull this off. You need one thing: a passion-filled heart armed with purpose and a concrete plan.

Here’s where the tough stuff comes in. Turning energy creation into reality requires work. It demands facing your raw feelings head-on—no sugarcoating, no skipping the uncomfortable parts. It means getting brutally clear on what matters right now, ditching distractions, and getting real with your direction.

When you align your heart and mind like this, energy flows because it comes from a place that truly matters. That’s fuel you don’t run out of.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your own energy!

Ask yourself: Are you ready to put in the work? To stop waiting for motivation to magically appear and instead build it, step by step?

Because here’s the kicker — you don’t need to leap miles in a single bound. You just need one step. One move closer. One decision to drive action forward.

As I say always, “One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!”

Be authentic with your goals, brave with your feelings, and laser-focused on what’s urgent and relevant. This isn’t some vague pep talk; it’s a call to create your now, to ignite the fire that lights your way forward.

This is your moment. Step into it boldly. Shine with everything you have. The world needs your unique impact, and it’s waiting for you to bring it.

Go create your own energy by being real with your direction, raw with your feelings, and relevant for what matters right now so you can create your now!

"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"

3800 Say Something New Aug 25, 2025

Show notes

Words have power, whether they're written, spoken, or even mumbled silently in your mind. Science backs this up—what you say to yourself and others shapes your brain, your actions, and ultimately, your results. So why do so many people keep repeating the same phrases and narratives, expecting different outcomes? It’s simple: actions only change when the words say something new.

Getting stuck in a loop of frustration, banging your head against the wall trying to reach a goal that feels just out of reach — that struggle is all too real.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com

But here’s the truth: the most overlooked place to start fixing this isn’t outside you, it’s inside—specifically, in the words you choose. You might blame your circumstances, your workload, your team, or the economy before you ever question what you’re telling yourself and others.

Let’s be real—words aren’t just pretty sounds. They have power. They create your reality. If you want to change the outcomes in your life or business, you need to confront the input feeding your mind right now. What you say to yourself daily drives what you ultimately do—or don’t do.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Say something new!

So, what can you do to say something new? Here are three practical moves that shift your words and open the door to new results:

Catch Your Default Narratives and Rewrite Them Identify the repetitive statements you say to yourself like a broken record. Example: “I’m not good enough,” “I always fail,” or “This is just how it is.” Once you’re aware of these limiting phrases, challenge them directly. Rewrite your internal script with a statement that points to possibility instead of defeat: “I’m learning,” “Failure is feedback,” or “I’m crafting my own path.” Changing this input rewires your brain to stop sabotaging your progress.
Speak Your Goals in the Present Tense, Not Future Wish If your words around goals live in “I will” or “Someday,” you’re giving your brain permission to put off action. Instead, say what you want as if it’s already happening: “I am attracting clients who value my work,” “I am a confident speaker,” or “I am building a thriving business.” This creates mental alignment and sends your brain a bold message—act like it’s real, and you’ll start moving like it’s real.
Test New Words Out Loud With Others Words have weight, but spoken words carry even more power. Find a trusted friend, mentor, or accountability partner and say those new phrases out loud. Watch how the energy shifts—the confidence grows. Saying something new publicly signals your brain and the world that you’re stepping into a different reality. You’re no longer hiding behind old narratives.

Here’s the bottom line: if your words aren’t changing, your actions won’t either. Stop blaming what’s outside and start cleaning up what’s inside. Say something new, and your life will follow.

Say Something New by Kristianne Wargo

Words worn thin like footprints in dust, Echoes of fears we endlessly trust. We speak in circles, the same old tune, Chasing shadows beneath the moon.

But what if silence breaks the chain, And new words fall like cleansing rain? A fresh sharp sound, a break, a start— A whispered hope inside the heart.

Say something new, bold and true, A phrase that lights the dark for you. Let courage rise where doubt once grew, And shape the world with something new.

Your voice holds power, fierce and bright, To turn the wrongs into the right. So speak—in present tense, make it real, Change begins with the words you feel.

Step from the echoes, rewrite the view, The world waits for what you’ll say and do. No more ghosts from yesterday’s hue— It’s time. Say something new.

"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"

3799 Patience Isn't Just About Waiting Aug 24, 2025

Show notes

Life rarely unfolds on our schedule. Chaos, challenges, and unexpected twists often cloud our vision, tempting us to rush, scramble, or even give up on the pace God has set for us. Yet the scriptures hold a powerful invitation that cuts through the noise: patience isn’t just about waiting—it’s about what happens while we wait.

James 1:4 (ICB) says, “Let your patience show itself perfectly in what you do. Then you will be perfect and complete. You will have everything you need.” This verse isn’t calling us to passive endurance; it demands active patience—patience that reveals itself fully through our actions.

Patience as a Lens, Not a Waiting Room

What if, instead of viewing patience as a limbo or delay, we saw it as a powerful lens through which to experience life’s storms and celebrations alike? When patience governs what we do, it shapes our responses, decisions, and mindset. It means showing steady determination, kindness, and grace—even when circumstances press hard.

This kind of patience boosts our resilience. It opens our eyes beyond the immediate discomfort and frustration to glimpse God’s greater purpose in the struggle. It keeps us rooted in the understanding that every season—be it joyous or difficult—has value and is necessary for our growth.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Patience isn't just about waiting!

Perfect and Complete: The Fruit of Patient Action

James doesn’t promise an easy ride—he promises a complete one. By letting patience “show itself perfectly,” we move closer to spiritual maturity. This completeness is about more than ticking boxes or achieving goals; it’s about becoming whole. It’s about standing firm, strengthened by faith, grounded in God’s promises, and equipped with everything needed to face life head-on.

Your patience right now, in whatever trial or triumph you are navigating, is a sign of strength—not weakness. It reflects your trust that God’s timing is wise and that He is working in every detail of your life.

Rush and Rest: The Daily Choice

The world glorifies speed—fast responses, rapid success, instant results. But rush does not enhance your day or your destiny. Taking a deep breath isn’t just about calming anxiety—it’s a sacred moment of recognition: the breath you draw was given by God Himself. You are fearfully and wonderfully made, deeply valued by your Creator.

Remember, “This is the day the Lord has made.” It’s your gift to steward with patience alive in your actions. So pause, steady yourself, and step forward with intention.

Next Steps:

Identify one area today where impatience usually sneaks in. What would your action look like if patience drove your response instead?
When chaos arises, remind yourself: patience isn’t passive; it’s powerful.
Write down the promise from James 1:4 and keep it where you can see it—a reminder that you are moving toward completeness, equipped for all you face.

Patience doesn’t delay your destiny—it builds it. Now, it’s your move. Let your patience show itself perfectly in what you do.

"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"

3798 There Is No Us Without You Aug 23, 2025

Show notes

As the days grow shorter and the school bells ring once more, August signals more than just the end of summer—it marks a shift back into the grind of routines, packed schedules, and mounting responsibilities. Between packing lunches, juggling after-school activities, and managing work commitments, one crucial relationship often slips into the background: your marriage—there is no us without you!

This busy season can become a perfect storm where connection is lost in the chaos. Yet, it’s exactly when life feels busiest that being intentional about your relationship matters most. Carving out space for meaningful connection—however small—can be the lifeline your marriage needs to thrive.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com

Before you dive into making changes, pause and ask: How did we get here? What parts of our marriage are working, and what aren’t? Taking this honest inventory sets the stage for clarity and growth.

Here’s a truth to hold tight: There is no us without you. Meaning, your role, your actions, and your mindset are not just parts of your marriage—they shape it entirely. Too often, we get caught up in doing everything for everyone else, leaving our spouse behind emotionally and physically. Reclaiming intentionality begins with recognizing how much your specific contributions matter in the “us” equation.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Reclaim intentionality for "us"!

But that "us" includes you first! You have to own your part.

So what does owning your part actually look like? Here are three powerful moves any spouse can take before pointing fingers or blaming:

Own Your Emotions Daily Notice how you’re feeling and why. Are you carrying stress from work? Are past hurts coloring your reactions? Name your emotions without judgment and share them honestly with your partner to invite understanding instead of defensiveness.
Practice Active Listening Commit to really hearing your spouse—not just waiting to respond, but engaging with empathy. Daily check-ins can be as simple as a five-minute conversation about how each other’s day unfolded, what’s weighing on your minds, or what joys you noticed. These small moments build trust and connection over time.
Take Responsibility for Your Actions Reflect: What have you contributed to your current dynamic? What behaviors or habits might be pushing your partner away or fostering resentment? Own those patterns and invite dialogue about change—not as blame, but as commitment to growth.

A daily check-in doesn’t require long hours or deep therapy sessions. It can be as straightforward as asking, “How are you really doing?” or sharing a “thank you” for something your spouse did that day. These rituals become the glue that holds together busy lives and bolsters emotional intimacy.

DAILY CHECK-IN: Two things you're grateful for, two emotions you've experienced, and pray two-gether.

Remember, marriage is a beautiful thing, but it’s only as strong as the care both of you put into nurturing it. There is no “us” without your “you”—your presence, your heart, your willingness to show up for the one you vowed to walk alongside.

This back-to-school season, dare to make your relationship a priority. Because when you invest in “you,” you invest in “us.” And that’s a return worth showing up for.

"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"

3797 The Days Can Be Long Aug 22, 2025

Show notes

Parenting isn’t for the faint-hearted. The days can stretch on endlessly, filled with messy meals, sleepless nights, sibling battles, and the constant scramble to keep up. The days can be long, but the years are short.

Yet, blink, and those long days shrink into years that race by. Kids grow too fast, and many parents find themselves stuck—wondering how they got here, feeling left behind as their children step into new phases of life.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com

But what if parents didn’t have to fall behind?

What if you could grow with your children instead of chasing after them?

This isn’t some pie-in-the-sky parenting fantasy. It’s a deliberate choice—and a necessary mindset shift—to meet the relentless pace of childhood with your own version of growth, curiosity, and presence. Savor each stage!

The K.I.S.S. ~ Savor each stage!

What does raising kids and getting them through the stages of life look like?

Here are three intentional moves parents can make to stay in the game and truly savor each stage—not just endure it.

1. Show Up Fully in the Moment, Not Just on the Clock

It’s easy to survive day to day without really showing up. Checking off boxes, putting out fires, keeping schedules—but emotionally checked out, mentally elsewhere. But your kids don’t just need your presence; they need your engagement.

Put down your phone. Stop thinking about the next thing on your to-do list. When your child talks, really listen. When they play, play with them. When they struggle, sit with the discomfort instead of looking for quick fixes. Showing up fully stretches your patience and attention, but it keeps you connected so you don’t feel like a spectator as your children grow.

2. Lean into Change Instead of Resisting It

Every phase with your child demands something new from you—and sometimes that’s wildly uncomfortable. Whether it’s toddler tantrums melting into school anxiety, or shy little ones becoming moody teens, resisting those changes only leaves you feeling left behind and overwhelmed.

Choose to lean into the messy, confusing, and exhilarating growth—for yourself and your child. Learn new skills, pick up a book about their stage of life, and ask questions about who they’re becoming. This mindset will help you evolve alongside your children instead of being left stuck in your own ideas of parenting.

3. Build Your Own Passions and Identity Outside of Parenting

When your life revolves entirely around your kids, it’s easy to feel like you’ve lost yourself. But that loss is the fast track to burnout and regret. Parenting is huge, but it’s not all you are.

Keep something in your life that’s just for you—a hobby, a craft, a friendship, a daily habit—that fills your cup and sparks joy. This isn’t selfish; it’s survival. When you nourish your own identity, you bring more energy, patience, and presence to your role as a parent. You grow—so your kids see growth modeled, not just growth demanded.

Real Talk: Don’t hide behind the excuse that your children grow too fast to enjoy the stage you’re in. That’s fear dressed in logic. Every phase of your child’s life is a window—and you decide whether to stand in front of that window and watch life happen, or step through it and live it fully.

The days can be long, yes. But your years don’t have to slip by unnoticed, leaving you wondering where you went. Grow with your kids. Lean in, show up, and hold on to the parts of you that refuse to shrink away. That’s how you make those fleeting years count for both of you.

"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"

3796 Strike While the Iron is Hot Aug 21, 2025

Show notes

In life, too many of us sit back and wait for opportunities to knock on our doors—as if success is something that just shows up on its own schedule. But the truth is, opportunities don’t wait. They emerge for a moment, flashing bright and clear, then disappear just as fast if you hesitate. That’s why the age-old saying holds true: you need to strike while the iron is hot.

Why on earth would you let go of possibilities that are staring you in the face? It’s not a question most dare to ask themselves seriously.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com

But here’s the hard truth: if you’re not ready to seize what’s possible right now, you’re choosing to lose it. Not because the world is cruel, but because chances are fleeting—and your “not now” can turn into “never.”

So, where should you wrestle with this question?

Right where it hits you: in your priorities, your actions, your mindset.

What matters to you should be the fuel that pushes you forward, not the excuse to sit back and do nothing. Unless you’re genuinely content leaving doors unopened, it’s time to get uncomfortable and move.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Strike while the iron is hot!

Seizing the moment means to create your now. It means holding yourself to a higher standard—leading with integrity in every decision.

When you act on what’s in front of you, you don’t gamble away potential. Instead, you embrace the reality of your situation and use it as a stepping stone to the next challenge.

Remember, success rarely happens overnight. It’s earned one step at a time.

“One step at a time leads to miles of greatness.” ~ Kristianne Wargo

If you stall on that first step, those miles never come.

Don’t make the mistake of indecision that holds you back. You were made for more than playing it safe. You need to expand your horizons and take a leap of faith.

When a door opens, don’t just stare at it—walk through it. You’ll have time later to adjust and adapt to what comes next.

Strike while the iron is hot. Grab hold of what’s in front of you and conquer it before it cools down. That’s how you turn moments into milestones and chances into victories.

"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"

3795 Your Glutes Aren't Ready Aug 20, 2025

Show notes

How many times have you jumped headfirst into a health kick, driven by the desire to prove something — to someone else or maybe even yourself? Most of what we do in fitness is designed to draw attention, to show off progress or grit. But here’s the hard truth: why do you push yourself when your glutes aren’t ready?

Your glutes—the powerhouse muscles in your hips and butt—play a critical role in everything from posture and balance to strength and injury prevention.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com

Ignoring whether they’re prepared for the workload is a fast track to setbacks. “Your Glutes Aren’t Ready” is more than a provocative title; it’s a call to be smart about your health and fitness journey.

Health isn’t just about grinding harder. It’s about strategic moves that honor your strengths while minimizing your weaknesses.

Being truly well-rounded means balancing fitness, nutrition, sleep, mindset, and emotional well-being. If one piece is out of sync—like underactive or weak glutes—you’re setting yourself up for failure.

Be smart about your health!

The K.I.S.S. ~ Be smart about your health!

Here are three straightforward ways to prepare yourself, glutes included, for healthier living that sticks:

Build a Foundation First Focus on mobility and controlled activation exercises that wake up your glutes. Hip bridges, clamshells, and bodyweight squats stimulate these muscles without overloading them. This creates a base to gradually add intensity with confidence and control.
Prioritize Recovery and Sleep Your body repairs and strengthens when you rest. No amount of effort can replace quality sleep and recovery. Without it, your glutes and other muscles can’t build resilience, increasing injury risk. Treat sleep as a non-negotiable part of your health routine.
Adopt a Growth Mindset — Slowly Healthy living isn’t about a sprint; it’s about sustainable progress. Stretch your limits carefully by adding small, manageable challenges. Be honest with yourself: know when to dial it back. Injuries are not badges of honor—they are roadblocks.

Don’t overcomplicate your well-being. Focus on what you can do now, then stretch yourself where it makes sense. Your progress won’t be flashy, but it will be real. And most importantly, you’ll keep moving forward without sidelining yourself.

If your glutes aren’t ready, don’t force the issue. Respect the process, build smart habits, and watch your whole body catch up. That’s how you win at healthy living—without shortcuts, without silly risks, and without regrets.

3794 Listen to Your Mind, Not Your Mood Aug 19, 2025

Show notes

How many decisions do we make on a whim—based purely on the feeling of “this is the way to go”? Too many. And each time we do, we risk steering off course or jumping ship just as momentum builds. If you want to make sound decisions and build a path that leads somewhere real, you must listen to your mind, not your mood.

Feelings are fleeting. Moods shift like the weather. One moment you’re fired up and ready to conquer the world; the next, you’re drained, doubtful, or angry about something trivial.

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com

That emotional roller coaster will never provide a reliable compass. And making significant moves based on those ups and downs guarantees wasted energy and missed opportunities.

Your mind — that steady, rational, grounded part of you — is what keeps your goals in sight. It weighs the facts, anticipates the consequences, and maps out the next step, even when your mood says “give up” or “just wait a little longer.” A sound mind helps you break through the noise of frustration, distraction, and fear to keep climbing.

Success comes from showing up consistently, especially when the feelings aren’t there. That’s what separates those who reach their dreams from those who just dream about them. It’s okay (and expected) to struggle emotionally — but don’t let those waves dictate your direction.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Listen to your mind, not your mood!

You are made for more. You have something only you can chase and claim. Don’t let impulsive moods sabotage what is yours. God created you on purpose for a purpose with gifts and talents to share.

So, train yourself to pause, breathe, and consult your mind before pulling the trigger on your next move.

Decide with intention. Push through the discomfort. Remember why you started. Your goals demand more than mood swings — they demand your discipline and clarity.

Keep your eyes on the mountain peak, even when the weather looks grim. The climb isn’t easy, but you’re built for it. So listen closely — not to your mood, but to your mind. That’s how you win.

CHALLENGE: Don’t let a passing mood steal your momentum. Step forward with a steady mind and resolve—and move one step closer to what’s waiting for you.

"One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo

3793 Is Now the Right Time? Aug 18, 2025

Show notes

Why is it that we keep asking ourselves if we’re ready to chase our dreams? Why do we convince ourselves to wait for the “perfect” moment—a moment that never actually comes? If these doubts are swirling in your head, then maybe you should flip the question. Instead of “Am I ready?” or “Is this the right time?” ask yourself: “Is now the right time?”

As I was returning home from our vacation, I came across an Amazon Prime Same-Day Delivery Truck. They promise lightning-fast same-day delivery, showing us that waiting doesn’t have to be part of the equation.

What if you treated one of your next steps toward your goal like same-day delivery? What if you committed to your dreams with that kind of urgency?

Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com

I don't know. It got me thinking.

The truth is, maybe you don’t want to hear the answer “Yes, now is the right time,” because it means you’re going to have to face the same excuses you’ve been rehearsing for years:

“I don’t have enough money,”
“I’m not skilled enough yet,”
“My timing isn’t perfect.”

But if you want different results, you have to be willing to do something different. So why not be like that Amazon Prime truck—showing up the very day someone hit “buy,” ready to deliver?

Here’s a reality check: “now” is the only time you truly control. Waiting for perfect conditions is just a way to avoid facing discomfort, uncertainty, or risk. If you want to own your dreams, you need to get real with what “NOW” means to you.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Get real with N.O.W.!

So let’s break it down with a simple framework—a way to get brutally honest with yourself. What 3 things can you use to define NOW when it comes to your dream?

N.O.W.: Need, Own, Win

Need: Strip away the fluff. Why do you need to act now? What’s the cost of waiting longer? Is it a growing gap between where you are and where you want to be? Or a missed chance to prove yourself? Pinpointing your urgency is the first step. If your dream is truly a need, not just a want, your resistance to act fades fast.
Own: Take full responsibility. Do you own your dream and the obstacles in your way? No one else’s timing matters but yours. This means calling out the excuses and deciding you are the person who moves this forward. Owning your part means no more blaming “not enough time,” “not enough resources,” or “not the right market.” That’s the mindset shift that turns ideas into action.
Win: What will a win look like today—right now? It doesn’t have to be a giant leap. A win might be making a call, drafting a simple plan, or sharing your vision with someone. The point is to create momentum. Same-day delivery isn’t about the full order, it’s about showing up now with something real to push you toward your goal.

If you’re serious about changing your life, then quit waiting for “perfect.” The perfect time is a myth.

The right time is right now—if you’re honest about your need, willing to own your role, and ready to claim your wins. Be that Amazon Prime truck delivering progress fast, not later.

So, is now the right time? It is if you say it is—and then act like it.

You want different results? Then get moving—same day, no excuses.

"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
