We must remain deeply rooted. I never thought I would learn such a valuable lesson from a plant vine. It is so incredibly important that we examine every area of our lives, including our spiritual growth, personal development (and our businesses as well). This is why we need one another. This is also why we must stay connected to God and continue to pray, read our Bible, seek mentorship/ (discipleship), and be willing to take a closer look at our lives with sober judgment as we examine ...

How do you respond when God calls you to do the impossible? I would like to share behind the scenes of what recently occurred when God called me to do what seemed impossible by revealing to me the launch of our first in-person Unlocking Greatness Retreat with only 3 weeks to plan and implement the event.

Your hard labor was never in vain. You were preparing, and now your suddenly season is approaching. Will you be ready? Read “necessary.” by Zenja Glass. Chapter titled...

Sometimes all we have to do is take the first step. Only after you take that first step are you in position to see the next one. I pray you are encouraged by this podcast episode, “What God Is Building Behind the Scenes,” as I share what God has been building behind the scenes in my own life with the upcoming Unlocking Greatness Retreat taking place June 13, 2026, in Chicago.

Tonight’s episode is very personal… it’s about giving birth. Giving birth to greatness. I chose to record and post this special message on this Mother’s Day evening to share from one of the most difficult seasons of my life after losing my 23 year old son. Even in the moment of my deepest grief, God reminded me that His purpose for my life still remained, and I was created to birth the greatness He placed within me. In this episode, I read from Chapter 23 of my book “necessary.” and I shared ...

There are moments in life where something has to change. You can’t keep playing small, underestimating your value, and repeating the same patterns when opposition appears. You reach a point where you realize you cannot continue responding the same way, thinking the same way, or staying in the same patterns and expect a different outcome. In this podcast episode, I walk through the reality of repeated cycles and why many people remain stuck in them. I also break down what to do when resistance...

It is too dangerous to seek validation from people when God has already chosen you to uniquely rule over your assignment the way He has instructed for you to do so. When God chooses you, your identity is not up for debate. You don’t need approval to dream. You don’t need permission from others to walk in the authority God gave you. You don’t need confirmation from people to agree with what God said is possible in your life. If God said it, then it’s settled. If God chose you, then it ...

Can you thank God one more time? Sometimes it becomes so easy to forget all that God has done, and all that He has protected us from… even when His answer was no. I encourage you to lift your hands and thank God for everything He has done in your life… even for the things you are unaware of… even for the doors He closed… and for the doors He has gone before you and opened.

These are some hidden patterns I’ve noticed, especially among those who are called to lead. After dozens of recent conversations, it became clear that many are pouring into others while neglecting critical areas in their own lives. And over time, that neglect has a cost. SPIRITUAL DISCIPLINE Staying rooted in the Word of God, in His presence, and in the authority you’ve been given. Without consistency, we don’t just drift, we begin to forget what we carry and how to stand. MINDSET AND ENVIRON...

Dwell in the secret place. There is a place that God reveals to those who are willing to enter. A place that is not defined by circumstances, or what is happening around you, but by His presence. In this place, you are not weak… you are strengthened. You are not vulnerable… you are covered. You are not defined by what you are facing… you are anchored in who He is. This is the place where you begin to see differently, speak differently, and walk with a level of authority that cannot be taken f...

You’ve Outgrown Where You Are There comes a point where staying where you are is no longer an option. Not because you haven’t been trying. Not because you haven’t been carrying weight. But because something in you has grown… and where you are, can no longer hold it. You may feel the pressure. You may feel the resistance. You may even feel the cost of what it will take to move forward. But that pressure is not there to break you. It is there to reveal that you cannot remain the same. In this e...

Sometimes the hardest battle in life is not external. It is the quiet lie we begin to believe about ourselves. In this episode I share what I have been learning through grief counseling, conversations with people from around the world, and the many clarity calls I have been hosting recently. I have spoken with leaders, entrepreneurs, and dreamers from many different places, and one thing keeps showing up again and again. Many incredibly gifted people are carrying exhaustion, doubt, or a q...

You may not realize this, but you are a champion in the Spirit. You are a mighty warrior. Let’s discuss what truly makes a champion, and how champions rise in the very moment they have fallen. It is not the absence of battle or temporary defeat that makes a champion. It is the decision to STAND again. My prayer is that this Unlocking Greatness podcast episode shifts your perception so that you can see the invitation from God to return to your original design. If you are ready to renew the way...

This is a call to return HOME. This is a call to get back to the original intention God had in mind when He created us. We must walk in love, authenticity, truthfulness, humility, and in the power and wisdom God gives us. In this episode, I share about a situation I did not expect to happen after a speaking engagement, but I am glad it did. It was necessary. It was my breakthrough moment. Sometimes our greatest weaknesses can become our greatest strengths if we are willing to re...

When you first see a diamond fresh out of the ground, it doesn’t sparkle. It doesn’t even look valuable. It looks like dirt… dull, rough, irregular. But it’s a diamond all the same. You may feel like that right now… buried, overlooked, or unsure of your value. Especially if you’re a business owner or walking through a challenging season. I’ve been in that space too...questioning and being refined. But God reminded me of something powerful: you are a diamond, even if you’re still in the rough...

The Courage to Surrender: How to LAUGH at the Days to Come! God has been pressing into my spirit… the quiet strength that comes from surrender. Not giving up, not shrinking back, but that deep, holy confidence of knowing exactly who you belong to and surrendering every circumstance to Him. Life, family, business… we are all walking through different seasons. Some are heavy. Some feel confusing. Some stretch us more than we ever imagined. But God reminded me of the Proverbs 31 woman, re...

Before you respond to any situation in your life, any phone call, any text message, any disruptive thought, negative people, self limiting beliefs, unexpected circumstances or challenges, etc… ask yourself one question: Is It Bearing Fruit? In other words, will my involvement, time, reaction, response, etc., serve the purpose God has for my life, and will it keep me in alignment with my vision and goals? I encourage you to read: Galatians 5:22-23 to learn more about the fruit of the Spi...

There is a spiritual battle happening all around us... fear, distraction, doubt, and exhaustion trying to steal our peace. But God reminds us in Galatians 6:9, “Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” This is a powerful message about standing firm in faith, putting on the full armor of God, and recognizing the lies of the enemy. The battle has already been won... but we must stay grounded in truth, rooted in God's Word, and su...

No matter how busy life feels, I want you to pause… and simply abide. In this episode, I share what I learned during a recent retreat... how to truly sit in the presence of God. We read through John 15 and replaced the word remain with the word abide… and everything changed. To abide means to dwell, to carry the presence of God through every moment... not just in prayer, but in the quiet, busy, and everyday moments in life as well. When we learn to abide, confidence returns. Confidence does...

For so long, I thought the enemy was after me… my peace, my family, my dreams. But now I realize the truth: I was never the real target. The enemy was after the light inside of me. In this episode, I share a deeply personal letter to the enemy, coming from the pain of losing my son and the countless nights I spent on my knees, pleading for God’s rescue. What the enemy meant for evil, God is turning into testimony. Every tear, every dark place... I am determined to use them all t...

I pray you are greatly encouraged by this podcast episode to realize your value has just gone UP! Your value has just gone UP because of what you have been through. Your value has gone UP because of your circumstances. Your value has gone UP because you have refused to give up. Your value has gone UP because you know that your value is in Christ Jesus [Yeshua], our Lord and Savior. Your value has gone UP because of your unique experiences. Your value has just gon...

In this episode of the Unlocking Greatness Podcast, I share how wisdom... God’s wisdom... can transform fear into clarity, and uncertainty into action. Drawing from Proverbs 3, I walk through how leaning on our own understanding only keeps us stuck, but seeking God’s guidance opens the doors we never thought possible. From financial stress to personal struggles, we can find favor, understanding, and direction when we invite God into every choice, every plan, and every fear. This ...

It’s time to break negative patterns and stop repeating cycles that are holding you back. If you’ve ever wondered, “How do you break negative thought patterns?”, “How do you stop repeating negative cycles and how do you break free from negative habits and generational patterns?” I pray this helps you develop some step-by-step processes to stay on track for your daily routine. Important tip I left out: We have to be very intentional about the seeds we are planting in our garden. Whatever you...

No matter what life looks like right now, no matter how deep the valleys or how loud the doubts, I want you to know: Greatness has always been within you. In Chapter 20 of my book "necessary." I pour out the truth that so many of us need to hear. Greatness does not lay atop the soil. Sometimes we have to dig through trials and hardships to discover Greatness, but Greatness was always there… through every setback, through every moment you felt powerless. I thought hiding my greatness would mak...

#noshame #nocondemnation #Godisgreater I pray today marks the END of shame and condemnation in your life. There is no more shame. There is no more self-condemnation. God is greater! Let’s examine Psalm 34 and Luke 15. Correction: One of the additional verses I quoted was Galatians 5:19-21 (not Galatians 6, as stated during this recording). God reminds us that those who look to Him are radiant, and our faces are never to be covered with shame. The Lord reminds us that no one will be cond...

Below are the scriptures mentioned: John 8:12, Luke 11:24-26, Luke 11:33-36, Matthew 5:14-16, Ephesians 4:30, and John 8:44 The book “necessary.” by...

In Part 1, we discussed the internal battle we face. We learned it is not fair to compare the person we are becoming to the person we used to be—it's simply not a fair fight. Part 2 shifts our focus to the external battle, when God fights our battles. He shows favor on whom He wants to show favor. There are so many examples found in the Bible from Moses, Joseph, Abraham, David, the 12 Disciples, and many others. When God shows up, it’s not a fair fight, and that is a good thing because God i...

It's Not a Fair Fight! In Part 1 of 2, I discuss the internal battles you can face when comparing your former self to the person you are becoming now. Many times, as you pursue your dreams and goals, you focus on what hasn't been working out. However, I want to remind you this new version of yourself needs time to prepare and mature. When you don’t allow this progress to happen, it is not a fair fight against yourself. Your beliefs and thoughts about yourself have an impact on your mindset, i...

I pray you are encouraged by this mentorship session I had with someone. I also pray it encourages you to continue moving forward. God has qualified you to do His good will. We all have experienced self-doubts and at times, felt unqualified or unworthy, but Psalm 25:3-5 gives us hope. Let us always remember, God will use whatever mess you bring to Him for His glory.

How do we embrace God's love among our struggles… and is that even possible? Join me as I read from Psalm 119. David faced numerous challenges, including betrayal, adversity, and suffering, yet he boldly proclaimed, "It was good for me to be afflicted." Why would he say this? What would make David say that it was good??? What mindset and level of love and trust in God would bring him to such a statement? Somehow, David had unwavering trust in God's love, even in his darkest times. What...

Is it possible that God has you in a pruning season? Just like a skilled gardener, God knows exactly what we need—even when it feels uncomfortable. I share about my personal journey in my book "necessary."

The pruning process is really a process of the Good Gardener preparing us for ri...

As I visited my son’s gravesite today, on his birthday, something really stood out to me as I reflected on the day he accepted Jesus Christ [Yeshua] as his Lord and Savior. We are called to make disciples of all nations and spread the love of God in our daily lives. That is what really matters! As followers of Jesus Christ [Yeshua], we are called to be God's messengers, reflecting His love and grace to those around us. Living for God by spreading the message of the gospel can profoundl...

I pray you are encouraged as you listen to me read an excerpt from my book “necessary.“ This chapter title is “Through the Fire”. I share about my journey of going through the fire and emerging stronger than ever, but it was not by my own strength...

Life can throw us into the depths of challenges—whether it's relationship struggles, financial...

Looking for guidance? Are you paying attention to God’s divine instruction? How often do we pay attention to what God is trying to tell us? I encourage you all to read Matthew chapter 2.
