1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.000
And excited for our first training call, coaching call of the new year.

2
00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:14.000
All righty.

3
00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:19.000
Hey everyone, just getting things set up.

4
00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:25.000
Yeah, we're live. That's great. Perfect. So good to see everyone.

5
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:33.000
First coaching call of the new year we had a great prophetic call last night thank you for everyone who joined or watch the replay and commented.

6
00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:46.000
I was such a special way for us to start the year together and I love that we love that we did the weekly calls and the eight week intensive I love that we did the monthly calls so my heart's desire is that there's something, I feel like I want to do

7
00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:57.000
something more community wide, I'm not committing myself to anything just yet but in this in the vein of flow like we talked about last night during the prophetic call.

8
00:00:57.000 --> 00:01:09.000
I would really love to do something like that with the larger community soon in the in this new year so I'm just I'm just releasing that.

9
00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:14.000
All right, well let everyone jump on it is coach just coach Lindsay today.

10
00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:21.000
Yeah, so my focus is spending some time with Hannah, and so, which is, which is awesome.

11
00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:33.000
It's kind of fun that I get to double up and do a call with you guys last night I call with you today I'm actually excited to do that. I do want to start the call with some housekeeping so if you even remember because I feel like we've lived so much life

12
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:46.000
you know we did Christmas and New Year's and all that stuff. But we focused will we tried to but then I feel like the Holy Spirit kind of took over the last call was we tried to do focus on doing some ad training.

13
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:59.000
We left that call saying hey we're going to do a live. We're going to do a live stream with Ashley kind of walk someone through a real setting up an ad and that way it could kind of be like a training call.

14
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:13.000
So we did have our call with Ashley she was super awesome to agree to do that with us but it was, we ran into some roadblocks and so we had to troubleshoot so that's why we didn't end up live streaming the call, because we realized there was a few key

15
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:19.000
things and we felt like this was going to be maybe the case for everyone that were account specific.

16
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:31.000
So some of you guys and I won't get into all of it because I don't want to confuse anyone but some of you guys have never set up your ads manager some of you have run ads for other companies or other organizations, etc etc so not everyone is kind of

17
00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:46.000
starting from the same place. And we realized if we had live stream to call Ashley it would have been a really long call and it wouldn't have been relevant to everyone so what we're going to do as a solution is, there's a few key things that have to even

18
00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:57.000
before you start placing the ad if that makes sense and so Bruce is going to do a mini course and he's going to do short videos on each step.

19
00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:03.000
So we can take it one step at a time and it's not like a two hour long something.

20
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:19.000
So we're going to post that you guys will have access to that. And then we want you to utilize the tech calls to set things up specifically for you, if you're getting stuck, or if you just need extra help because otherwise I feel like it would be

21
00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:29.000
relevant to maybe one person on the call but not everyone and so that's how we thought we could honor your time and also make sure that it gets done for those of you that are wanting to run ads sooner rather than later.

22
00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:41.000
So does that sound okay to you so what's going to happen is Bruce is going to kind of make a mini course if you will like here's how to set up your Facebook pixel here's how to make sure that your ads manager is set up you know just some key things

23
00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:50.000
that need to happen even before you try to like place your copy or put your video for an ad, then they'll also be some ads training. We've done ads training in the past.

24
00:03:50.000 --> 00:04:02.000
And there's a few, I would say strategy things that we're going to share that have changed since maybe some of the last ad training because of the way that Facebook has changed their targeting.

25
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:15.000
And so, some of you guys have gone through training it's still relevant, but there's a few things that have had to change because, for example, you can't target people who also like Graham cook or people who are Christians or so that's some things

26
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:22.000
that have had to change our strategy and that's what we're going to share in these trainings but we're hoping to do it in bite sized chunks so that number one it's not overwhelming.

27
00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:36.000
Number two, it honors your time because we know that not everyone has like two hours to sit through beginning and end. And it's something that actually activates you guys have something you can do, we want you to make sure we have five more calls

28
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:44.000
five more weeks together the month of thank God, the month of January has five weeks and not four weeks we have extra time together, which is awesome.

29
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:55.000
The best way that you can take advantage of this next month is to make sure that you schedule your strategy sessions with me and utilize those tech calls, if you need them.

30
00:04:55.000 --> 00:05:00.000
And if you think you might need them. Don't hesitate to set up a tech call.

31
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:13.600
very honorable people. And I know that many of you don't want to take advantage of it, like, do like take advantage of it. Because that's what's going to help because we are we're all at a place right now where we're we have different needs. So one

32
00:05:13.640 --> 00:05:25.080
weekly coaching call is not necessarily going to universally, we're going to utilize these I think to give make sure that you guys have focus and clarity and encouragement and you're making sure you're staying unstuck. But there are individual

33
00:05:25.080 --> 00:05:37.920
needs. And that's why we've placed those tech calls and strategy calls so that we make sure that you guys get activated. So does that sound good? Okay, perfect. And we're learning to like we thought, oh, we'll just do this one ad training

34
00:05:37.920 --> 00:05:49.680
with one of you, and it will be relevant for all of you. And we realized quickly, like, it's actually going to be more confusing. So that's what happened on the call. So that's okay, we'll troubleshoot it. And we always encourage feedback, too. So if you

35
00:05:49.680 --> 00:06:01.320
feel like, hey, there's something that I have questions about, and I don't really know where that fits. Like, I don't know if it's a strategy call. And if it's a tech call, like you can always reach out to help at kmw support.com and ask those questions. We'll

36
00:06:01.320 --> 00:06:16.120
make sure that you get what you need. So just basically, don't hold back. And don't feel like what you have to ask is not relevant or too basic. Because that's why we're here, we want to help you. One thing that I wanted to, we talked the

37
00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:45.560
last couple of calls about being in the messy middle, and things sometimes get more unclear before they feel clear again. And sometimes that we can take that on as a condemnation. And like, what's wrong with me? Why am I the one that feels stuck all the time, or can't move forward. So I wanted to start this call, because I feel like we're still, we're almost to the point where we're going to be tying up the loose ends, but we're still very much, I think, in the messy middle. And so I want to make sure that we are, we just remain clear and focused on what it is that we're doing here. And at the end of the day, what we're doing here is we are leveraging technology

38
00:06:45.560 --> 00:07:14.760
to disciple nations. So that's gonna look different for everyone. And on the prophetic call last night, you know, I shared with you guys some of the encouragement that I've been getting from my mentors, but also just my conversations I've been having with the Lord and the permission I feel like he's been giving me to flow again. And so I think we're all kind of experiencing that on different levels. And that's requiring us to ask ourselves two questions. What's working? And what's no longer working?

39
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:44.680
And so there's nothing magical about, you know, January 1, but I do love that it tends to be this universal marker in time that we all just give ourselves permission and space to evaluate or reevaluate what's working and what's not working. I don't want us to skip through that. So from the lens, and there's probably many areas that that question applies to, but I think this was a really great time in this advancement program to be asking yourself that question.

40
00:07:45.560 --> 00:08:00.840
And taking some time to think through it deeply with the Lord, like what's working and what's not working. And there could be things from the previous season, the things even from the previous intensive that were that were working for you, but don't seem to fit anymore. We talked a little bit about that last night as well.

41
00:08:01.320 --> 00:08:30.760
For those of you not able to join us, like I'm walking through that personally with posture right now, I just kept coming across this barrier. And I was trying to take the old structure of what had worked in the past into this new season, like some of it's just very practical, guys, like life changes, right, we enter new season. So for me, like I became a mom. So that my external circumstances changed. And I, the way that I was struggling to

42
00:08:30.760 --> 00:09:00.720
navigate that, because I thought I could just continue to do what I had been doing, because it had worked in previous season, it was no longer working. And so I want to encourage all of you guys to take some time to evaluate what it is that you're doing. Because some of you guys have expressed in some of your individual strategy calls. And I'm bringing this up, because it's not just one person who's brought it up. So I think this is going to be applied to many of us where you're feeling stuck, or you're feeling like, drained by what it is that it's no longer

43
00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:29.720
it doesn't feel life giving. Some people said, I don't feel like I have a grace, or I feel like I want to start something, I want to add something to it, to what I'm doing, go deeper in what I'm doing, but I'm struggling with that. And I think it's because we're not, we need to give ourselves the time to say, Okay, what, what do I need to stop doing in order to be able to start doing some new things or continue doing. So again, the name of this program is advancement. So let's ask ourselves that question from the place of advancing, I want to advance

44
00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:40.720
I want to advance in what it is that I'm doing, it may mean that what I'm doing is going, it's going to change what it looks like, or that the expression of it's going to change.

45
00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:53.720
So just kind of bringing that bringing it back to my personal experience as an illustration with posture, I realized I had the structure that I had built something as simple as, you know, weekly, a weekly long episode and a daily small posts, which you think how hard

46
00:09:53.720 --> 00:09:57.720
can that be right, but it was no longer working.

47
00:09:57.720 --> 00:09:59.720
I could not keep up the

48
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:14.000
And, and, and the reason I knew it was no longer working as things are starting to fall through the cracks. Right. So I shared the example of like the false theology post going up with one of our team members because the checks and balances and our system

49
00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:24.000
had kind of gone astray, I was no longer able to stay engaged in that part of the content creation and all these things and so I was super frustrated.

50
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:40.000
And the worst thing I can do is just continue to try to do the same thing in that place of frustration like let us use that if you're feeling frustrated if you're feeling tired if you're feeling worn down if you're feeling unmotivated, let that be

51
00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:49.000
just a prompt for you don't don't get stuck there don't feed that don't think something now is wrong with me and I just can't keep up and I need to like hustle more.

52
00:10:49.000 --> 00:11:01.000
I'm seeing the world do that a lot and that's going into burnout and breakdown, but use that as a tool of okay I'm feeling this way let's evaluate what's no longer working.

53
00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:16.000
And what what is what is still working, is anything still working. And then it's what we do with those the answer those questions right that matter and so I want you guys to utilize these next five weeks together to process that like utilize each other

54
00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:30.000
utilize Bruce and I as your coaches like hey I feel like this is working really well I want to maximize this I feel like this is not working like Can you help me with, because sometimes we know something's not working but we don't know how to change it.

55
00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:46.000
Right. And even if it comes down to I feel like I'm not working like you know I even had to evaluate myself like is it me, like, which is hard, but we have the safety of there's no condemnation right we don't have to, we don't have to have that

56
00:11:47.000 --> 00:12:04.000
condemnation in the vein of shame condemnation something's wrong with me I can't keep up. I have an attention problem I have a focus problem I have a life problem that's not helpful, but if that's what you're feeling release that like utilize.

57
00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:14.000
It feels too personal like do you have a mentor or coach that you feel safe with that you can say like I feel like something is internally. I'm internally frustrated.

58
00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:29.000
And I don't, I don't think we always give ourselves enough grace to even admit that right because we don't want to admit that something feels off so that's what I want to encourage you guys to do as we're thinking through okay, we're kind of, we're still

59
00:12:29.000 --> 00:12:41.000
in the fancy middle we're getting to wrap up some loose ends what's the best, like, what way for me to move forward if I'm feeling stuck if I'm feeling like I don't know where to go from here.

60
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:53.000
That's two questions that I feel like would be really helpful like to take some time to ask yourself to, you know that, and being willing to surrender some things and let go of some things and change some things.

61
00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:57.000
It's, it's hard. And there was no.

62
00:12:57.000 --> 00:13:00.000
I feel like the Lord gave me an illustration.

63
00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:08.000
It may not work but I think it's funny so you know it's like when you have a breakup.

64
00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:21.000
You're like, you're needing to end a relationship. And it's, and it needs to end because it's not working right like we that's why in relationships and it's not because everything is going great and you decided one day I want something new and different

65
00:13:21.000 --> 00:13:27.000
it's like, isn't working anymore and I'm not talking about marriages guys I'm talking about dating relationships.

66
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:33.000
Okay, dating relationships, and we have to, we have to break up.

67
00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:49.000
Part of the grief of that breakup is not we're not grieving. What, what it actually was, we're grieving the what we thought it was like we have this ideal of this person or this dream of what this relationship is going to be and what our future is going to be

68
00:13:50.000 --> 00:14:01.000
together and then we end up it's not working out and what we're sad about is not the, you know, part that didn't work no longer being in our lives, it's this ideal that we've held on to.

69
00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:12.000
And so I realized I do that sometimes with these structures that I build or like you know it's like I kind of romanticize and, and plus I was, I felt like my, I felt like I was on the line a little bit because I had taught the structure.

70
00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:25.000
I think structures are good I think systems are going to think formulas are helpful but not, and I share this a little bit last night but I just feel like to share this again, not if it's something that now we feel like we are enslaved to, and it's taking

71
00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:39.000
us away from the intimacy and the flow with with the father and we're putting our trust on how well the system is working and how well we're doing within the system versus like being able to flow with the Lord and flow from a place of life and delight

72
00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:49.000
to a place of condemnation of like now I have to keep up this thing that I've built now I'm committed to that. And I feel like it's important to share these guys because you guys are going to be, you guys are coaching people or you are going to be coaching

73
00:14:49.000 --> 00:15:00.000
people are sharing with people, and there needs to be that freedom and flexibility to be able to have the time to ask yourself like what's working and not working and not do it from a place of.

74
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.400
shame, condemnation, sadness, and grief.

75
00:15:03.400 --> 00:15:06.280
Like I loved what posture was,

76
00:15:06.280 --> 00:15:08.760
but it's not working in that structure anymore.

77
00:15:08.760 --> 00:15:10.520
And so I have to be willing to let it go.

78
00:15:10.520 --> 00:15:12.600
I had to get to a place for me personally,

79
00:15:12.600 --> 00:15:13.760
I had to get to a place where I'd be willing

80
00:15:13.760 --> 00:15:15.680
to let it all go.

81
00:15:15.680 --> 00:15:18.000
Cause there were other things in my life,

82
00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:19.980
specifically my intimacy with the Lord.

83
00:15:19.980 --> 00:15:23.200
Like I'm not interested in building something

84
00:15:23.200 --> 00:15:26.520
that's going to keep me from him.

85
00:15:26.520 --> 00:15:28.080
That's going to sit in the middle of us.

86
00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:31.680
That's going to be now the thing that's, you know,

87
00:15:31.680 --> 00:15:33.200
between us.

88
00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:34.680
I didn't want that.

89
00:15:34.680 --> 00:15:36.680
And I don't care how big it can potentially be

90
00:15:36.680 --> 00:15:37.680
or what the impact is.

91
00:15:37.680 --> 00:15:38.980
Like, I'm not willing to give that up.

92
00:15:38.980 --> 00:15:42.160
I feel the same about my family.

93
00:15:42.160 --> 00:15:45.040
I'm not willing to build a major ministry

94
00:15:45.040 --> 00:15:47.000
and place my family on the altar of it.

95
00:15:48.280 --> 00:15:50.040
And there's going to be things for you guys too.

96
00:15:50.040 --> 00:15:52.480
Like maybe it's, maybe, I mean,

97
00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:54.380
I'm sure that you guys are feeling that way

98
00:15:54.380 --> 00:15:55.680
with your family, your community.

99
00:15:55.680 --> 00:15:57.560
I mean, obviously those are like,

100
00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:00.120
I think those are universal like values,

101
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:02.040
but maybe there's other things as well

102
00:16:02.040 --> 00:16:04.520
that we feel might be selfish,

103
00:16:05.800 --> 00:16:10.560
like our mental health, our emotional health,

104
00:16:10.560 --> 00:16:13.480
our internal peace, right?

105
00:16:13.480 --> 00:16:15.280
It's not worth it.

106
00:16:16.560 --> 00:16:19.240
It's not worth sacrificing those things on the altar

107
00:16:19.240 --> 00:16:21.200
of building something of major impact

108
00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:22.720
because we think that's how we're going to matter

109
00:16:22.720 --> 00:16:23.560
to the Lord.

110
00:16:24.560 --> 00:16:26.400
That's a false sense of security.

111
00:16:26.440 --> 00:16:27.720
It's a false sense of safety.

112
00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:29.880
And it is not a responsibility that He's ever,

113
00:16:29.880 --> 00:16:32.360
He's actually required us to carry.

114
00:16:32.360 --> 00:16:35.440
So if, and if you feel like there's that tension right now

115
00:16:35.440 --> 00:16:40.080
of this is getting in the way of things that I highly value,

116
00:16:41.640 --> 00:16:43.200
we need to have a conversation.

117
00:16:46.000 --> 00:16:47.800
We need to build wisely.

118
00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:51.000
We're pioneering and that can be messy and wild

119
00:16:51.000 --> 00:16:53.960
and that's totally okay for it to be messy and wild

120
00:16:53.960 --> 00:16:58.560
and feel a little bit unclear, like don't be, that's fine.

121
00:16:58.560 --> 00:17:00.760
But if it's getting in the way of things

122
00:17:00.760 --> 00:17:02.160
that you highly value,

123
00:17:03.800 --> 00:17:08.800
including your own peace, stability,

124
00:17:11.560 --> 00:17:13.079
that should be valuable.

125
00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:15.280
Not just, oh, this is like affecting my relationship

126
00:17:15.280 --> 00:17:17.280
with God or this is affecting my relationship with others.

127
00:17:17.280 --> 00:17:19.920
But like, is it affecting your relationship with you?

128
00:17:21.880 --> 00:17:23.480
We need to have a conversation.

129
00:17:24.960 --> 00:17:28.520
Because it doesn't mean that you can't do big things,

130
00:17:29.600 --> 00:17:31.640
but I just want to make sure that we build wisely.

131
00:17:31.640 --> 00:17:34.480
Pioneering for pioneering sake is really,

132
00:17:34.480 --> 00:17:35.840
can be really dangerous.

133
00:17:36.840 --> 00:17:41.680
Pioneering partnered with wisdom can be extremely effective

134
00:17:41.680 --> 00:17:46.680
and extremely impactful and a lot of fun, a lot of fun.

135
00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:48.720
So I want to hear from you guys,

136
00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:49.840
if anyone's willing to share,

137
00:17:49.840 --> 00:17:51.480
because I feel like we do need to have a little bit

138
00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:55.320
of a conversation around this

139
00:17:55.320 --> 00:17:57.360
and around where you feel like you're at.

140
00:17:57.360 --> 00:17:59.840
I just think it's going to be really helpful feedback.

141
00:17:59.840 --> 00:18:03.200
And the reason I feel led to do this in a group setting

142
00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:05.840
and not just in our strategy calls together

143
00:18:05.840 --> 00:18:07.920
is because I think it's actually helpful

144
00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:10.240
for sometimes the group to hear where each other's at,

145
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:15.240
because the enemy uses isolation as a weapon against us.

146
00:18:16.600 --> 00:18:18.720
And I just want to kind of break that apart.

147
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:20.120
So like, let me hear from you.

148
00:18:20.120 --> 00:18:22.000
And it's okay, I'm not saying that everything's bad.

149
00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:23.320
I'm not assuming everything's bad.

150
00:18:23.320 --> 00:18:25.200
Some of you guys are doing great.

151
00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:27.000
And so that's, I want you to share that too,

152
00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:29.120
but I just want to hear like kind of a state of the union

153
00:18:29.120 --> 00:18:30.520
as we're starting off this new year

154
00:18:30.520 --> 00:18:33.200
and finishing off this month together strong

155
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:34.640
as we launch into 2023.

156
00:18:34.640 --> 00:18:36.720
Like, how are you doing?

157
00:18:36.720 --> 00:18:38.080
What's in your heart to do?

158
00:18:38.080 --> 00:18:39.600
Do you feel like it's changed?

159
00:18:39.600 --> 00:18:43.040
Like, just go ahead and unmute yourself

160
00:18:43.040 --> 00:18:44.760
and you don't, you know, take two minutes.

161
00:18:44.760 --> 00:18:45.920
It doesn't have to be super long,

162
00:18:45.920 --> 00:18:48.040
but like, where are you guys at right now?

163
00:18:50.800 --> 00:18:51.640
Hey, Walt.

164
00:18:54.960 --> 00:18:58.920
Well, for me, I think a lot of things have changed

165
00:18:58.920 --> 00:19:03.160
because I went, Lindsay, you know this.

166
00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:05.720
I went from chasing after the problem

167
00:19:05.720 --> 00:19:08.760
and trying to beat people up with the problem

168
00:19:08.760 --> 00:19:13.760
until finally I realized that the, am I frozen?

169
00:19:15.280 --> 00:19:16.120
Nope, you're good.

170
00:19:16.120 --> 00:19:17.560
We can still hear you.

171
00:19:17.560 --> 00:19:18.400
Okay.

172
00:19:20.160 --> 00:19:24.440
And I began to see that what I am really after

173
00:19:24.440 --> 00:19:28.320
is to represent God as father,

174
00:19:28.320 --> 00:19:29.920
rather than chasing people down

175
00:19:29.920 --> 00:19:32.640
and trying to get them to see that, you know,

176
00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:35.680
what's getting in between them and God.

177
00:19:35.680 --> 00:19:37.840
I think that that's valuable to see,

178
00:19:37.840 --> 00:19:40.280
but I think first that's where they need to go.

179
00:19:40.280 --> 00:19:43.880
They need to see exactly who God is as father

180
00:19:43.880 --> 00:19:45.680
more than anything else.

181
00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:46.520
So.

182
00:19:47.520 --> 00:19:51.560
And that was, and what you are freezing now,

183
00:19:51.560 --> 00:19:53.320
but I'll just kind of finish off

184
00:19:53.320 --> 00:19:54.440
and give people some context.

185
00:19:54.440 --> 00:19:56.640
So that's huge for any of us right now,

186
00:19:56.640 --> 00:19:59.440
because when we're serving our who,

187
00:19:59.440 --> 00:20:00.280
we obviously.

188
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.000
are thinking through what are the problems that it is that we're wanting to solve and what are the

189
00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:08.480
you know questions that they have in their head. I mean Walt was building an entire curriculum

190
00:20:08.480 --> 00:20:14.880
around the problem like the orphan spirit which is what a lot of people do right. It's not wrong

191
00:20:14.880 --> 00:20:19.840
necessarily but he realized that's not actually going to bring people to a place of exchange

192
00:20:20.560 --> 00:20:26.320
and shift. It's going to kind of keep people stuck. He was feeling stuck even as he was creating the

193
00:20:26.320 --> 00:20:30.480
content and creating the curriculum. So that was a big shift for him as he realized like I actually

194
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:35.600
need to start with the solution. Like that's that's what I ended up doing posture right instead of

195
00:20:35.600 --> 00:20:42.320
having like a whole like a whole channel about anxiety. I just I focused on peace and then we

196
00:20:42.320 --> 00:20:46.240
kind of broke down some things like oh by the way here's some things that kind of get away of that

197
00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:51.200
and but it was a it was a way to give my audience to connect with my audience with where they were

198
00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:58.560
at without bringing them further down. So I love that Walt had come to come to that conclusion. So

199
00:20:58.560 --> 00:21:02.640
I hopefully he'll come back on but that was the that was a huge shift for him. So that's what he's

200
00:21:02.640 --> 00:21:07.440
now continuing to build just for you guys have reference. There's a curriculum around the father

201
00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:11.920
heart of God and being able to learn how to relate to God as a father especially for those who might

202
00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:16.480
have fatherlessness in the natural. He kind of wants to build a bridge for that which I think

203
00:21:16.480 --> 00:21:26.000
is really cool. Okay who else? So I have to tell you from when you and I had our conversation

204
00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:32.240
and I shared a little piece of my story of hearing from God and how I bought my Bible for the first

205
00:21:32.240 --> 00:21:39.360
time and so it just so happens how God does things in TikTok. I had posted a thing about

206
00:21:39.360 --> 00:21:46.240
what's your word you know for 2023 and I got a question and the question was well how do you know

207
00:21:46.480 --> 00:21:53.680
what your word is and like the Lord just like this is easy just tell them to ask me and so I

208
00:21:53.680 --> 00:21:59.440
got a chance to just kind of share just a tad bit of that testimony I shared with you about

209
00:21:59.440 --> 00:22:06.480
I just asked God you know and it has been so popular my response to this person you know

210
00:22:06.480 --> 00:22:15.120
I've been getting lots of comments and so I'm like okay Lord so you want me to begin to now it's time

211
00:22:15.840 --> 00:22:19.520
I'm not going to say I'm not going to do short form obviously because I need to continue to grow

212
00:22:19.520 --> 00:22:26.080
my tribe but I feel like the Lord is calling me back into more of a deep dive like helping people

213
00:22:26.080 --> 00:22:33.600
like to connect them with him and not just receive the encouragement from me you know each and every

214
00:22:33.600 --> 00:22:40.000
time but he wants them to know look I want to speak directly to your spirit too and and and

215
00:22:40.000 --> 00:22:45.760
like he wants me to show what that looks like it might not he might not be the audible voice

216
00:22:45.760 --> 00:22:52.400
of God but so he wants me to share some testimony and just things like that to kind of help people

217
00:22:52.400 --> 00:22:59.280
to to kind of connect them you know with my friend you know with him and know that they can hear too

218
00:22:59.280 --> 00:23:07.760
so I'll be starting back up the longer form as well because the but here's the flow kicking in

219
00:23:07.760 --> 00:23:14.960
here's the flow so as far as because I at first I said I'm gonna do it every week I'm gonna do it

220
00:23:14.960 --> 00:23:21.200
every Monday but the Lord is like don't say that just yet like don't say that every Monday I'm

221
00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:28.560
gonna be on and every Monday I'm gonna you know I want you to just come with me and as I lead you

222
00:23:28.560 --> 00:23:34.960
you know so I'm just gonna figure out a fun way to share with my audience now that I'll be opening

223
00:23:34.960 --> 00:23:42.320
back up you know my longer form things as well but it's for on purpose to kind of take you in

224
00:23:42.320 --> 00:23:47.520
deeper to connect so look y'all hear me say all the time I heard in my spirit God put this in my

225
00:23:47.520 --> 00:23:54.640
spirit and it's like look God want to put it in your spirit too so and here's what I would encourage

226
00:23:54.640 --> 00:24:01.520
you to do Tamara is do do your your first long format and then just tell your audience it's

227
00:24:01.520 --> 00:24:10.000
available okay thank you no because a lot of content creators feel the need to kind of tell

228
00:24:10.000 --> 00:24:13.680
what they're going to do and then do it but it's actually better if you've got some where

229
00:24:13.680 --> 00:24:19.280
immediately they can go like it's a immediate call to action so I would go ahead and do that

230
00:24:19.280 --> 00:24:23.360
like do your first long like just do it if you're going to do it like go ahead and do it you don't

231
00:24:23.360 --> 00:24:28.240
need to necessarily announce it but then you can lead people to say hey like I just did an episode

232
00:24:28.800 --> 00:24:33.120
yeah and you can also the people who are asking that question on that comment thread you can just

233
00:24:33.120 --> 00:24:39.120
share the link perfect thank you this is a great Tamara's is a great example of the shift of what

234
00:24:39.120 --> 00:24:43.760
is not working because we got on the call and she was like my views are down I feel like I haven't

235
00:24:43.760 --> 00:24:50.080
really changed anything and it came down to there were some internal things right Tamara that like

236
00:24:50.080 --> 00:24:55.520
it just wasn't it wasn't working more it wasn't flowing anymore and we realized like you kind of

237
00:24:55.520 --> 00:24:59.840
felt like you had to distance yourself a little bit so you brought it back to like

238
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:02.760
I'm just going to start sharing back to my life again and my testimony.

239
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:05.000
And it seems like that was, that was working.

240
00:25:05.000 --> 00:25:06.360
So, yep.

241
00:25:08.160 --> 00:25:08.400
Okay.

242
00:25:08.400 --> 00:25:10.880
Who else who like, where are you guys at right now?

243
00:25:10.880 --> 00:25:12.160
Are you, are you stuck?

244
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:13.200
Are you flowing?

245
00:25:14.560 --> 00:25:15.640
What do you want to be doing?

246
00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:16.720
Do you have no idea?

247
00:25:18.440 --> 00:25:19.840
I thought I would give an update.

248
00:25:20.320 --> 00:25:20.840
Yeah.

249
00:25:21.240 --> 00:25:25.480
So first of all, I want to just encourage everyone in, you know, and I know

250
00:25:25.480 --> 00:25:29.120
everyone else celebrate with me, you know, how much I want to just greatly

251
00:25:29.160 --> 00:25:34.320
thank and Bruce and Lindsay for having, you know, created this environment

252
00:25:34.320 --> 00:25:37.920
and this atmosphere as they have, because it has finally given me the

253
00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:41.600
breakthrough, you know, that I came on and gave my testimony about, you know,

254
00:25:41.600 --> 00:25:44.560
when I was giving my intro video, you know, well, what am I here for?

255
00:25:44.560 --> 00:25:47.760
Well, I'm here because I keep, even though I know this sounds really weird,

256
00:25:47.760 --> 00:25:50.240
even though I teach rest, I was burned out.

257
00:25:50.280 --> 00:25:52.080
Why, why do I keep burning out Lord?

258
00:25:52.080 --> 00:25:53.480
I know how to not get burned out.

259
00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:56.320
So of course it's always just deeper and deeper measures of rest.

260
00:25:56.320 --> 00:25:59.160
I'm like, but Lord, so here's a deeper measure.

261
00:25:59.640 --> 00:26:01.080
How did, how do I get past this?

262
00:26:01.080 --> 00:26:03.760
And I was greatly appreciative of Bruce and Lindsay being willing

263
00:26:03.760 --> 00:26:05.680
to walk with me, you know, through this.

264
00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:11.160
And so having been in listening to everything, it is that, um, that, you

265
00:26:11.160 --> 00:26:14.560
know, that y'all have been talking about and presenting, um, Lindsay.

266
00:26:15.040 --> 00:26:20.080
I've gotten, um, I was able to get over the burnout through the burnout, but

267
00:26:20.080 --> 00:26:25.840
the way that I did was not, um, it was, um, going through the starting

268
00:26:25.840 --> 00:26:28.520
another rest intensive, you know, starting another program, which

269
00:26:28.680 --> 00:26:29.720
is where I'm burning out.

270
00:26:29.720 --> 00:26:31.720
So I'm like, Lord, I keep burning out.

271
00:26:31.720 --> 00:26:34.400
And then I don't want to do it for another year and a half, a year to a

272
00:26:34.400 --> 00:26:37.040
year and a half, that is literally how long it would take me between once.

273
00:26:37.040 --> 00:26:39.600
Cause I would get so burned out because of how much I was pouring in.

274
00:26:39.600 --> 00:26:42.520
So I thought, okay, let's learn by fire.

275
00:26:42.520 --> 00:26:47.640
Let's put me in the place and then figure out what's going on.

276
00:26:47.680 --> 00:26:50.920
And so the Lord very graciously allowed, you know, the kingdom messenger

277
00:26:50.920 --> 00:26:55.360
advancement to be at the same time so that I could have the support and just

278
00:26:55.360 --> 00:27:00.960
kind of, uh, to process through while I'm actually in a program.

279
00:27:00.960 --> 00:27:05.080
So in other words, while I'm watching myself go through a process, I can watch,

280
00:27:05.320 --> 00:27:06.560
okay, what's going on?

281
00:27:06.560 --> 00:27:10.120
How do I feel and where, where is, um, where am I burning out?

282
00:27:10.120 --> 00:27:14.320
And I started, and I started pinpointing it and then I started figuring out, okay.

283
00:27:14.800 --> 00:27:16.760
That's the part I'm not enjoying anymore.

284
00:27:16.920 --> 00:27:21.560
I'm enjoying all this other stuff, but this part right here is where I'm

285
00:27:21.560 --> 00:27:25.280
burning out, but here's what the exciting thing that I just wanted to kind of like.

286
00:27:25.640 --> 00:27:28.760
And encourage everybody else in, you know, cause you were asking Lindsay,

287
00:27:28.760 --> 00:27:32.320
well, where, you know, where each of you now individually, one of the things

288
00:27:32.320 --> 00:27:37.560
that I'm noticing is that when I drew is that that piece I was noticing that

289
00:27:37.560 --> 00:27:41.200
was burning me out, that actually honestly used to be the biggest

290
00:27:41.200 --> 00:27:42.560
selling point for my program.

291
00:27:42.560 --> 00:27:43.760
It was now burning me out.

292
00:27:43.760 --> 00:27:48.960
And I noticed that what God had done is he'd shown me that he'd began to make

293
00:27:48.960 --> 00:27:52.840
the other aspects of the program so much more effective that people weren't

294
00:27:52.840 --> 00:27:54.640
needing this other part anymore.

295
00:27:54.840 --> 00:27:56.600
And that used to be the selling point.

296
00:27:56.960 --> 00:27:59.120
And that was the point that was burning me out.

297
00:27:59.200 --> 00:28:03.360
So it was like, God was allowing my, my spirit or my soul or whatever to

298
00:28:03.360 --> 00:28:08.200
recognize to no longer need this element that he was, you know, to be burned out

299
00:28:08.200 --> 00:28:11.440
by this element, he's like, by the way, actually, you don't have to worry that

300
00:28:11.440 --> 00:28:14.960
this element that's burning you out is something you have to sustain

301
00:28:14.960 --> 00:28:16.720
in order for it to be effective.

302
00:28:17.080 --> 00:28:22.000
This is, this is what I'm doing with my people and this, and, and I will, I

303
00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:25.960
will carry out the effectiveness without your strife, without your

304
00:28:25.960 --> 00:28:28.000
sweat, without all of your whatever.

305
00:28:28.400 --> 00:28:32.040
And so it was just neat to see that when I really, instead of me feeling guilty

306
00:28:32.040 --> 00:28:35.480
and condemned about the burnout and like, oh my goodness, I'm not, why

307
00:28:35.480 --> 00:28:36.880
can't I sustain this anymore?

308
00:28:36.880 --> 00:28:39.720
Kind of like, you know, you Lindsay talking about, you know, well, Lord,

309
00:28:39.720 --> 00:28:41.560
what do I do, you know, for posture?

310
00:28:41.560 --> 00:28:45.800
If I'm just, you know, I'm just not feeling it quite in the same way anymore,

311
00:28:45.800 --> 00:28:46.880
but I still want to do it.

312
00:28:46.880 --> 00:28:49.600
So, you know, you're trying to figure it all out and there's something in you.

313
00:28:49.600 --> 00:28:53.160
You know, I think you said that felt you had to sustain something and

314
00:28:53.160 --> 00:28:55.000
it felt I had to sustain something.

315
00:28:55.200 --> 00:28:57.920
And so God's like, no, no, no, you can let that go.

316
00:28:57.920 --> 00:29:01.240
And you no longer have to sustain this thing that's burning you out,

317
00:29:01.240 --> 00:29:02.960
no longer bringing you life.

318
00:29:03.560 --> 00:29:08.440
And I will, because this is something I still want to do, Ashley, the rest of it

319
00:29:08.440 --> 00:29:11.720
will still will be effective without this thing.

320
00:29:11.720 --> 00:29:15.840
So anyway, I just wanted to kind of like combine two things by not only, you

321
00:29:15.840 --> 00:29:19.840
know, answering your question, Lindsay, but also letting the group know that

322
00:29:19.840 --> 00:29:24.400
what it is that you've very kindly, you know, helps, you know just kind of be

323
00:29:24.400 --> 00:29:29.920
there in support working and helping me, allowing me to process during this time.

324
00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:34.480
What it is that I come into the group for I've, I've received that gift.

325
00:29:34.720 --> 00:29:37.960
I received what it is that I was needing, that the area that I was needing

326
00:29:37.960 --> 00:29:40.760
breakthrough in, and I'm so very grateful.

327
00:29:41.000 --> 00:29:47.080
But anyway, so I'm at a good place now because I'm finally, I'm about

328
00:29:47.080 --> 00:29:48.400
to start a new rest intensive.

329
00:29:48.400 --> 00:29:51.640
And so Bruce and Lindsay are helping me, you know, as y'all heard, you know,

330
00:29:51.640 --> 00:29:56.080
like advertisement and challenge and whatever, and then getting it all set up.

331
00:29:56.120 --> 00:29:59.920
One of the things that I'm doing is starting to have less of.

332
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:06.300
of a part of the burnout, less of a piece of the new program because, and so I'm able

333
00:30:06.300 --> 00:30:10.180
to kind of, so that's how during this whole process, I've been able to recognize what

334
00:30:10.180 --> 00:30:12.820
it is and been able to start dropping it.

335
00:30:12.820 --> 00:30:18.300
And so in other words, put into action what it is that I've been learning and going through

336
00:30:18.300 --> 00:30:22.860
this process that you're talking about, Lindsay, about like what's analyzing, what's not working

337
00:30:22.860 --> 00:30:28.460
anymore and what is working, what's an aspect of my spirit that still needs to have expression

338
00:30:28.540 --> 00:30:33.420
and what part just isn't me bringing myself naturally to the table anymore, what feels,

339
00:30:33.420 --> 00:30:34.420
what's hard.

340
00:30:34.420 --> 00:30:41.260
And so anyway, I'm excited, I'm pleased, and I'm stepping out in faith by final in that,

341
00:30:41.260 --> 00:30:44.380
in what it is that I've learned by finally not doing it anymore.

342
00:30:44.380 --> 00:30:49.380
So anyway, so thank you very much for everything it is that you poured into me and how you've

343
00:30:49.380 --> 00:30:54.580
supported me and all that, I received the breakthrough I wanted, and I'm now trying

344
00:30:54.580 --> 00:30:55.580
to implement that.

345
00:30:55.700 --> 00:30:59.300
And change my program accordingly to what was working and what wasn't.

346
00:30:59.300 --> 00:31:00.300
So thank you.

347
00:31:00.300 --> 00:31:01.300
That's amazing.

348
00:31:01.300 --> 00:31:04.700
I mean, I'm excited for you because we don't have to wait a year and a half for the next

349
00:31:04.700 --> 00:31:10.300
rest intensive, but that's guys, it's really real.

350
00:31:10.300 --> 00:31:11.780
Like I totally feel that too.

351
00:31:11.780 --> 00:31:15.900
Like Bruce and I are walking that journey actively, even with Kingdom Messengers, where

352
00:31:15.900 --> 00:31:20.220
we have been doing kind of multiple challenges and looking into the new year saying like

353
00:31:20.220 --> 00:31:22.540
what's not working anymore.

354
00:31:22.540 --> 00:31:27.060
And not just like, I love how she said like this used to be the selling point, this piece

355
00:31:27.060 --> 00:31:32.140
that was burning me out, not what might not be working in the natural.

356
00:31:32.140 --> 00:31:36.820
Like it could be still, it could be the thing that's helping your numbers, right, or bringing

357
00:31:36.820 --> 00:31:37.820
in revenue.

358
00:31:37.820 --> 00:31:42.540
But like what is not, you're not resonating with anymore.

359
00:31:42.540 --> 00:31:48.180
I don't know if we give ourselves the permission all the time to surrender that because it

360
00:31:48.180 --> 00:31:50.340
might still be working.

361
00:31:50.340 --> 00:31:55.500
Like posture was still working, but it wasn't working for me.

362
00:31:55.500 --> 00:31:59.700
In the behind the scenes, it was chaotic trying to get the episodes out.

363
00:31:59.700 --> 00:32:02.340
Like my processes were falling apart.

364
00:32:02.340 --> 00:32:07.700
When I was going to spend time with the Lord, it was, I was dreading it, not dreading him,

365
00:32:07.700 --> 00:32:11.620
but I was dreading it because I felt like I needed to get something out of it for posture.

366
00:32:11.620 --> 00:32:13.380
I hated that.

367
00:32:13.380 --> 00:32:14.900
It wasn't, there was no delight in it.

368
00:32:14.900 --> 00:32:18.860
So that's, I really appreciate you sharing that, Ashley, just from that angle.

369
00:32:18.860 --> 00:32:22.940
Like it could technically be working, or you might think this is the thing that people

370
00:32:22.940 --> 00:32:28.860
are, that's helping people the most, but in Ashley's case, it actually, her program had

371
00:32:28.860 --> 00:32:32.820
evolved and expanded and the Lord was doing something new.

372
00:32:32.820 --> 00:32:37.780
And if she hadn't asked that question or allowed herself the permission to like, okay, what

373
00:32:37.780 --> 00:32:42.820
would, what would this program be like without this, if I, to even be able to discover a

374
00:32:42.820 --> 00:32:47.100
new something that was working even better with what it was wanting to do.

375
00:32:47.100 --> 00:32:48.100
I love that.

376
00:32:48.580 --> 00:32:49.100
Okay.

377
00:32:49.100 --> 00:32:50.100
Who else?

378
00:32:54.100 --> 00:32:55.100
Should I call on people?

379
00:32:59.100 --> 00:33:00.100
Amy?

380
00:33:00.100 --> 00:33:01.100
Okay.

381
00:33:01.100 --> 00:33:08.100
Well, I don't even know where to begin, but I do know I need a strategy call.

382
00:33:08.100 --> 00:33:17.420
But Carolina can know this just from our tech call, that the tech part for me, I really

383
00:33:17.420 --> 00:33:23.260
want to get a landing page because I want to have that, you know, not that I'm ready

384
00:33:23.260 --> 00:33:27.580
to do anything about it, but I want to have that.

385
00:33:27.580 --> 00:33:33.780
And I've just, I've got so much stirring in me, which is, you know, going back to the

386
00:33:33.780 --> 00:33:43.540
original, you know, I talked about it in my strategy call, because I'm, I'm enjoying my

387
00:33:43.540 --> 00:33:47.220
writing a whole lot right now.

388
00:33:47.220 --> 00:33:59.820
And, and I know that the prophetic, and it's not, I mean, even though what I do is prophetic,

389
00:33:59.820 --> 00:34:10.540
I've never presented something as prophetic, wanting to encourage that in somebody else

390
00:34:10.540 --> 00:34:15.100
and in others, you know, calling it the prophetic.

391
00:34:15.100 --> 00:34:22.580
And so there's a part of me that really desires that, but I feel like I need a bridge to walk

392
00:34:22.580 --> 00:34:25.540
over to get there.

393
00:34:25.540 --> 00:34:28.540
To start doing something?

394
00:34:28.540 --> 00:34:29.540
Yeah.

395
00:34:29.540 --> 00:34:36.020
What kind of, like, what do you mean, like you need to bring your audience over a bridge

396
00:34:36.020 --> 00:34:38.020
or is it for yourself personally?

397
00:34:38.020 --> 00:34:39.020
Myself.

398
00:34:39.500 --> 00:34:47.540
Really just to know how to make that shift, like maybe even walk over that bridge in my

399
00:34:47.540 --> 00:34:54.340
communication, you know, maybe, you know, to, to shift that direction.

400
00:34:54.340 --> 00:34:59.340
That's just only an idea and a desire that's stirring.

401
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:17.000
And another thing that I have been stuck on since probably since August or September is the long form content, and I want to revisit that.

402
00:35:17.000 --> 00:35:31.000
Because I really, I did enjoy that, but it did become a whole lot when I was posting daily on all four platforms, or you know at least more often.

403
00:35:31.000 --> 00:35:38.000
Lately, you know, after the, the August and September the eight week intensive.

404
00:35:38.000 --> 00:35:45.000
And so, yeah, that's just, that's just where I am.

405
00:35:45.000 --> 00:35:47.000
Yeah.

406
00:35:47.000 --> 00:35:48.000
Yeah.

407
00:35:48.000 --> 00:35:56.000
So a couple things that I can put my coach, Lindsay had on.

408
00:35:56.000 --> 00:36:05.000
I think there's a couple things but one of them being just an admin because you are posting you're still posting daily right.

409
00:36:05.000 --> 00:36:14.000
Not in the month of December but multiple times a week. Yeah, sometimes when we can offer platforms and you're doing that by solo you're doing that by yourself.

410
00:36:14.000 --> 00:36:18.000
Yeah. And, I mean, how's that working right now.

411
00:36:18.000 --> 00:36:23.000
Well I've got it Dan, you know, I've got it pretty streamlined.

412
00:36:23.000 --> 00:36:27.000
But I think I recorded two episodes in December.

413
00:36:28.000 --> 00:36:35.000
And I repurposed some older episodes which have done actually did most of them did pretty good.

414
00:36:35.000 --> 00:36:42.000
Yeah. Do you feel like you're at a point though that the admin part is taking time away from the creation part.

415
00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:58.000
Because that you might be at a point maybe some other people are listening to where you need to consider can I start delegating what many people do, which is posting on the platform, so that I can spend time on what only I can do, which is creating

416
00:36:58.000 --> 00:37:00.000
the content.

417
00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:04.000
So that for you could look like you know hiring an intern.

418
00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:17.000
There's, there's a couple things you can hire a digital VA, which is not very expensive like kind of depending on what your budget would be what your needs would be there's a couple solutions that we can talk about but that would be something where, because it's

419
00:37:17.000 --> 00:37:32.000
not working because it's getting in the way of you being able to create the content that you desire to create delegating that admin I think would start to free you up your mind space and your time to make sure that you've got you know because you're,

420
00:37:32.000 --> 00:37:46.000
you're voicing things like I want to begin to do some newer content like prophetic content. So I'm needing some space for that. I want to re explore doing my longer format content because I actually did enjoy it, it just got a little bit to be too much.

421
00:37:46.000 --> 00:37:56.000
You know, so in order for you to be able to walk in what you want to do you might have to start to offload some of the things that people could do.

422
00:37:56.000 --> 00:38:08.000
I think that's one thing to consider. And it's not necessarily putting someone on salary so I know that sounds sometimes we sometimes automatically think like oh I can't afford that or I don't want to like hire someone I don't want to run a team

423
00:38:08.000 --> 00:38:18.000
but there are some ways like some digital VA is and I'm making a note because that is something that we could do, Bruce and I could just do a little mini talk on.

424
00:38:18.000 --> 00:38:34.000
I don't know if any of you guys are interested just like how we've done that in the past how we've hired hired people for that, or even just some of you guys have young people in your life that you could kind of bring under your wing and do like

425
00:38:34.000 --> 00:38:47.000
an internship with for like a six month period or, you know, there's sometimes there's college students, even looking, looking for hours or looking for projects to do for like a class like to run social media accounts and things like that.

426
00:38:47.000 --> 00:38:52.000
So, there's, there's a couple different avenues that you can do.

427
00:38:52.000 --> 00:38:57.000
You think those could be remote. I mean, that's what you're talking about. Okay.

428
00:38:57.000 --> 00:39:02.000
Our whole team is remote.

429
00:39:03.000 --> 00:39:16.000
So, and we've had people that we've worked with some wonderful people like VAs and stuff that are out of the Philippines, that we've worked with for over a year that have been that have posted content for me and things like that so they don't even have to be in the

430
00:39:16.000 --> 00:39:18.000
same country as you.

431
00:39:19.000 --> 00:39:31.000
So we can talk about some do's and don'ts with that and some just like what how to do that but that would be something Amy for you that I would that that's like a not working thing but something that we could you could easily to flow and then I like to address

432
00:39:31.000 --> 00:39:34.000
the prophetic thing.

433
00:39:34.000 --> 00:39:37.000
Maybe ask you some more questions about that really quick.

434
00:39:37.000 --> 00:39:48.000
Do you feel is it a qualification in your mind like I feel like I need more training in order to begin to minister prophetically are you already ministering prophetically in other contexts you just haven't done it online.

435
00:39:48.000 --> 00:40:00.000
Probably more the latter of what you said, I want to breathe on that I feel like God has told me that that he would take me to that place to breathe.

436
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:06.720
on the prophetic and other people. And in my years of mentoring and counseling,

437
00:40:08.720 --> 00:40:14.720
that's what I've done. I mean, you know, they're teaching people how to hear the voice of God,

438
00:40:14.720 --> 00:40:23.920
but also just breathing on that gift within them to send them out. And so do you feel like the

439
00:40:23.920 --> 00:40:27.840
what's keeping you from doing that is maybe it's like, do you feel like it's the Lord that's saying

440
00:40:27.840 --> 00:40:31.840
wait? Or do you feel like you're just struggling to kind of break through and start doing it?

441
00:40:33.520 --> 00:40:40.480
I think you probably addressed the biggest thing in, you know, just having so much

442
00:40:43.120 --> 00:40:49.280
on my plate, especially with the tech thing. I mean, that is, it's, it's a stressor for me,

443
00:40:50.000 --> 00:40:55.920
the learning it, you know, once I get it down, I'm, I'm okay. Or if I get walked through to a

444
00:40:55.920 --> 00:41:02.160
point, but it is definitely a frustration and has been kind of the whole time because I was going in

445
00:41:02.160 --> 00:41:10.960
so inexperienced, you know, with tech. Yeah. I mean, you've made amazing strides for someone

446
00:41:10.960 --> 00:41:15.840
who was like, I started from scratch. I mean, you're doing, you're doing an incredible job. So

447
00:41:16.880 --> 00:41:20.000
I want you to hear me when I say that, like, you have a lot to be proud of.

448
00:41:20.000 --> 00:41:24.800
It's just, it's not working. If it's going to be taking you away from the very thing that only you

449
00:41:24.800 --> 00:41:30.960
can do. It's not life-giving. It's not life-giving. And it's good that you know how to do it because

450
00:41:30.960 --> 00:41:38.560
you can, you know, I think, I think sometimes we, it can be a bigger stressor if you jump straight

451
00:41:38.560 --> 00:41:43.440
into hiring someone to do that, because then you have no context. So you don't really know how to

452
00:41:43.440 --> 00:41:47.680
engage. And so like, you've got that now, which I think you kind of got that in your tool belt.

453
00:41:47.680 --> 00:41:53.440
And now it's a good time to like, think about handing that part of it off so that you can

454
00:41:53.440 --> 00:42:02.400
continue to do that content piece and have more space to do like unique content, like the prophetic

455
00:42:02.400 --> 00:42:08.240
content. I do feel like for you too, like the writing piece and the prophetic are something

456
00:42:08.240 --> 00:42:14.800
that will be, go hand in hand with you. So you guys know as much as I love video, I think that

457
00:42:14.800 --> 00:42:21.520
you Amy could consider like releasing some prophetic writing, maybe even in graphic form.

458
00:42:22.320 --> 00:42:26.320
And that can be like a next step for you as well. Like it doesn't all have to be video form.

459
00:42:26.320 --> 00:42:31.760
So, because you're over 10,000 too. So I feel like with you, you have a little bit more space

460
00:42:31.760 --> 00:42:39.840
too to explore different types of content. And an intern for me on that would be because

461
00:42:40.400 --> 00:42:48.160
I have not learned the art of flowing, my spirit flowing on a device

462
00:42:49.040 --> 00:42:57.680
as opposed to with my pen. And I just, that's how I do. And so then it is a stressor for me

463
00:42:57.680 --> 00:43:05.440
to take what's in my journals and what I've written with ink and get it into digital form.

464
00:43:05.440 --> 00:43:13.440
I mean, just those simple steps that would move me toward publication or anything like a mountain.

465
00:43:14.240 --> 00:43:16.800
When you say digital form, are you talking about like typing it out?

466
00:43:17.440 --> 00:43:18.960
Typing it out. Yes.

467
00:43:20.080 --> 00:43:25.680
Yeah. So that is an area. So, okay. Let me ask you this for greater clarity. Is it because you

468
00:43:25.680 --> 00:43:31.360
have to like edit in order to like post like from journal? Is that?

469
00:43:31.360 --> 00:43:32.880
Well, a little bit.

470
00:43:35.040 --> 00:43:43.920
I mean, I want to be able to do the editing piece. I mean, not the editing, like I want to send that

471
00:43:44.000 --> 00:43:51.440
off, but to get the flow because sometimes I'm writing so fast. I'm hearing and I'm writing so

472
00:43:51.440 --> 00:44:01.200
fast that I know I can make the flow better, feel better about it. So the rereading and editing that,

473
00:44:01.200 --> 00:44:09.120
but getting that to somebody to put on a computer. And yeah.

474
00:44:09.120 --> 00:44:14.160
I think a great case study for you and I know you follow him is Nate Johnston.

475
00:44:15.360 --> 00:44:16.160
I do follow him.

476
00:44:16.160 --> 00:44:23.760
Yes. He's got the whole written word on blog format, but then what he puts on Instagram,

477
00:44:23.760 --> 00:44:31.840
like in his graphics are a like condensed version of it. He has like kind of the highlights,

478
00:44:31.840 --> 00:44:36.160
like you might notice this if you haven't noticed this, if you see something on Instagram that he

479
00:44:36.160 --> 00:44:40.720
posts and even the swipe graphics, which do pretty, pretty well. I mean, they're not going

480
00:44:40.720 --> 00:44:45.120
to get as much priority in Australia's video, but I think it's worth doing it. I did one for posture

481
00:44:46.640 --> 00:44:51.840
and then he says full word link in my bio for it takes you to his blog with the whole thing.

482
00:44:51.840 --> 00:44:56.080
So that's just a, that's just a, because I do feel like the writing piece is going to

483
00:44:56.080 --> 00:44:59.200
be the bridge for you personally and being able to publicly.

484
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:06.640
um go from go kind of getting out your journal to publicly posting the prophetic I think that

485
00:45:06.640 --> 00:45:12.240
writing is the bridge for you so don't feel like it has to be a video start there and if you're

486
00:45:12.240 --> 00:45:18.000
like what's holding me back is like I feel like I can't take away because I have to like condense it

487
00:45:18.640 --> 00:45:24.400
post the whole thing on a blog format and we can talk on a we it's not me doing the tech calls

488
00:45:24.480 --> 00:45:30.240
Carolina's like but in tech if you're like I don't even know like what program would I use

489
00:45:30.240 --> 00:45:35.840
to get like a blog format there's some simple ones that we could set you up with that would

490
00:45:35.840 --> 00:45:41.360
be where you could have the full like word but then you can what's on Instagram is like or

491
00:45:41.360 --> 00:45:46.800
Facebook whatever is the condensed version and just note go to Nate Johnston's Instagram notice

492
00:45:46.800 --> 00:45:51.200
that he does that he did it with his latest work you can see what he does use as an example as a

493
00:45:51.200 --> 00:45:56.560
case study for you and like this is what it looks like because I'm really excited about you

494
00:45:58.560 --> 00:46:02.560
publishing prophetic writing I think that would be amazing I want to read that so

495
00:46:03.680 --> 00:46:09.840
the quicker we can get you doing that the better well I feel like the the last journal that I just

496
00:46:09.840 --> 00:46:15.520
I'm flying through journals right now but the the last one which contained that work that I

497
00:46:15.520 --> 00:46:22.880
read to you in my strategy call is just filled with either prophetic devotionals or prophetic

498
00:46:22.880 --> 00:46:31.600
prayers I mean I feel like it could all be compiled and I mean like it was it was so much fun

499
00:46:32.480 --> 00:46:40.400
and I loved that very life-giving for me yeah so is it so is that helpful that kind of like

500
00:46:40.400 --> 00:46:46.560
yes all of this has been so helpful yes thank you I'm glad you feel activated like you're going

501
00:46:46.560 --> 00:46:56.160
to take action on it I do thank you awesome thank you for sharing okay who's next

502
00:46:59.440 --> 00:47:06.400
Xavier I see you smiling you've been busy no well I'm not shy all you guys know that I I'm

503
00:47:06.480 --> 00:47:14.480
I'm happy about speaking it's just it's December's been an interesting an interesting month and it's

504
00:47:14.480 --> 00:47:19.840
almost like nothing has changed and everything has changed you know that that's kind of what

505
00:47:19.840 --> 00:47:26.080
what I'm feeling like right now and so I've had a very good idea since fall where you know the

506
00:47:26.080 --> 00:47:32.720
Lord has wanted me to go but there just always have seemed to be obstacles and obstructions and

507
00:47:32.720 --> 00:47:39.120
and everything else and you know that can be difficult I I you know I I'm the type of person

508
00:47:39.120 --> 00:47:44.000
well okay Lord this is what we're going to do and and that's fine and I'm releasing all of this stuff

509
00:47:44.000 --> 00:47:50.880
to you and sometimes at least for me when I'm when I'm really good at doing that then you miss the

510
00:47:50.880 --> 00:47:56.000
things that you're not letting go of okay it's just really easy because well I let go of all

511
00:47:56.080 --> 00:48:02.880
this and this and this and that and I think I there was some internal work that that the Lord

512
00:48:02.880 --> 00:48:09.840
had to kind of do with me and to really kind of set me up for what I what I've already seen is

513
00:48:09.840 --> 00:48:15.520
really kind of the next step so it's been it's been really tough but I thought you know okay

514
00:48:15.520 --> 00:48:19.360
this is my plan this is how I'm going to do it this I'm going to approach it and you know none

515
00:48:19.360 --> 00:48:27.280
of those things are working out um Lisa and I think the I said for myself look the week between

516
00:48:27.280 --> 00:48:32.640
Christmas and New Year's I'm just going to focus on you know on this get what I need to get done

517
00:48:32.640 --> 00:48:43.040
and whatnot and so Christmas morning I woke up with COVID you know and so all of last week

518
00:48:43.840 --> 00:48:50.560
nothing got done but that's exactly what you know the that's what I needed I really had to just kind

519
00:48:50.560 --> 00:48:56.560
of spend time with the Lord and and just going okay I am not capable of getting done all these

520
00:48:56.560 --> 00:49:03.680
things I had in my head that that I was going to to get done and I just really had to kind of realign

521
00:49:03.680 --> 00:49:09.040
that entire relationship and it's not that I don't listen to the Lord I do but sometimes I just get

522
00:49:09.040 --> 00:49:15.840
things in my head and the focus I just wasn't on the work the focus was on the relationship

523
00:49:16.960 --> 00:49:24.000
okay and that's really kind of what needed to happen and uh and so I was in a position where

524
00:49:24.000 --> 00:49:29.120
that's what I had to focus on because I had no choice because I'm lying in bed just kind of sick

525
00:49:29.120 --> 00:49:34.880
as a dog and and you know we're just we're you know the Lord and I are just talking and I'm

526
00:49:34.880 --> 00:49:42.640
reading when I can and and whatnot but literally I was not able to do anything um because I just

527
00:49:42.640 --> 00:49:49.200
you know I had no focus all I could do is just okay Lord let's talk and so we're talking and

528
00:49:49.200 --> 00:49:56.400
seeing and I'm seeing and I realized that um yeah you know I hear correctly but you know

529
00:49:56.400 --> 00:49:59.360
sometimes it's not a hearing problem sometimes it's a listening problem.

530
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:17.000
Okay, and so I really had to I was really kind of forced to listen. So, you know, coming back. Today's really been the first day that I'm really sitting down at the computer and making some, you know, some strides and whatnot and things are, are really

531
00:50:17.000 --> 00:50:27.000
are really kind of clicking away. And I can see that this year is, you know, Lord's going to do some incredible, incredible things and in 23.

532
00:50:27.000 --> 00:50:39.000
And I think that's true for all of us. I think, you know, it's it's been a matter of preparation for all of us and really getting properly aligned with what God wants to do.

533
00:50:39.000 --> 00:50:56.000
You know that this is this is a very unique group that I'm blessed to be a part of. And, and it's not for it's not for nothing. I think every one of us the Lord has put has put something in front of us and we just need to align ourselves with him and

534
00:50:56.000 --> 00:51:00.000
follow in the path that he's given us and they're all different.

535
00:51:01.000 --> 00:51:08.000
They all are a piece of this miraculous thing that he's doing.

536
00:51:08.000 --> 00:51:22.000
And, you know, if you were to look at the state of the world, it looks like complete and utter chaos but but as I was reminded, you know, it's not that darkness is increasing it's that the light is exposing the darkness.

537
00:51:22.000 --> 00:51:42.000
This is this is what's really happening. And we're all part of this light that God is sending out into the earth, you know, to really kind of do things so I feel that I'm in a much better position now now I'm trying to just listen a bit more and then follow

538
00:51:43.000 --> 00:52:01.000
it is, I think you said something about striving tomorrow just just striving and working and trying to do it and, you know, I, I would have liked to have thought that you know all not grown past that but but that's really not the truth when you when you don't hit the

539
00:52:02.000 --> 00:52:17.000
that I've kind of put my head, you know that those are things okay what am I doing wrong what is what is wrong with this and everything else rather than just okay Lord, we're going to take this and I'm going to go at your pace and not the one that that I think

540
00:52:18.000 --> 00:52:35.000
is most important. And so just just being able and being in a position to listen and hear and and obey. I think is probably the most important thing for for each and every one of us, regardless of what we think you know the progress should be or whatnot.

541
00:52:36.000 --> 00:52:50.000
And so, laying flat on my back and being forced to, to, you know, to, to be in that position well that taught me, you know, a few things about that so I'm a lot more at peace right now.

542
00:52:51.000 --> 00:53:00.000
And just moving forward and I know that I'm just going to do it, you know, Lord, with you on your schedule and and stop worrying about, okay, what's that mark.

543
00:53:00.000 --> 00:53:08.000
Am I hitting that mark Am I doing this because, yeah, I had very very high marks and knew that you know yeah I'm doing what the Lord wants me to do.

544
00:53:08.000 --> 00:53:16.000
But, you know, sometimes we lose sight of the Lord when we're trying to do what we think the Lord wants us to do.

545
00:53:17.000 --> 00:53:27.000
So do you, do you feel like you're at a personal I'm sorry you had covered that is not for the faint of heart, and as I learned yes I did. This is my first bat.

546
00:53:27.000 --> 00:53:29.000
So, yeah.

547
00:53:29.000 --> 00:53:32.000
And you're only one amen my only one right.

548
00:53:32.000 --> 00:53:45.000
Do you feel like you're like just honest evaluation of where you are presently Do you feel like you have fully released that pressure and expectation of yourself or are you still having to actively release like.

549
00:53:45.000 --> 00:54:00.000
Honestly, I think I'm still actively having to release, you know, it's I have the knowledge that I know I need to. And I still, you know, I want to be, and that's what my prayer is actually right now, Lord, I just want to abide in you.

550
00:54:00.000 --> 00:54:07.000
And I want to see everything and hear everything from heaven's perspective, and stay there always and not get lost.

551
00:54:07.000 --> 00:54:14.000
You know, each and every day as we go through our lives you know things will happen, and we lose where we are.

552
00:54:15.000 --> 00:54:25.000
Okay, and start reacting to everything else so I'm just really really conscientious about that right now because I know I have the ability to to to lose that again.

553
00:54:25.000 --> 00:54:34.000
So, no, I don't feel fully completely confident that I'm not going to do that again.

554
00:54:34.000 --> 00:54:39.000
But but it's something that I'm conscientious about and working towards.

555
00:54:39.000 --> 00:54:50.000
And part of that, it's more of just like that feeling of release right because like there's like you said there's a knowing in your head but even when I sometimes express.

556
00:54:50.000 --> 00:55:00.000
This is what I'm doing I feel that like, but is this what I'm supposed to be doing like or should I go back to the drawing board so you know Xavier like you had a really intense 2022.

557
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:14.480
Yeah, no, I mean, I, I, you like, give yourself the grace, right, to just be to just be, because

558
00:55:14.480 --> 00:55:21.720
you already proven like, you, you know, you have the know how, you can easily execute

559
00:55:21.720 --> 00:55:25.880
on what it is that you need to execute on, like, if I was like, Hey, you got 12 hours

560
00:55:25.880 --> 00:55:30.680
to like, release the webinar, get the landing page up, get it promoted, like you, you can

561
00:55:30.680 --> 00:55:38.000
do it. That's not, you got it. Yeah. But I think you hit the nail on the head when you

562
00:55:38.000 --> 00:55:42.920
said there's an internal work. My sense is the Lord is really wanting you to have a heart

563
00:55:42.920 --> 00:55:50.160
experience, a heart experience and a heart experience, a heart experience. And, and that's

564
00:55:50.160 --> 00:55:54.160
like, give yourself the permission and time for that.

565
00:55:55.160 --> 00:56:00.240
It's interesting that you should mention that because as part of what the Lord is doing,

566
00:56:01.120 --> 00:56:06.840
he's brought someone into my life that I'm counseling, who just, you know, I honestly, I

567
00:56:06.840 --> 00:56:11.680
didn't want to the Lord said, No, you need to help counsel this person. Well, as it turns

568
00:56:11.680 --> 00:56:16.120
out, this person's problems are all based around everything that I've been doing.

569
00:56:16.760 --> 00:56:23.280
And creating, I mean, to the T, so that after talking with him, now I can articulate what

570
00:56:23.280 --> 00:56:28.360
I've been wondering, you know, about, you know, these particular things. And this has

571
00:56:28.360 --> 00:56:32.360
taken time, it hasn't been one of those things that are where, you know, you can just wave

572
00:56:32.360 --> 00:56:37.960
a wand, and it's all better for this person. But I have to walk this person through step

573
00:56:37.960 --> 00:56:44.680
by step and understanding. And that's, again, something that takes time. And I guess part

574
00:56:44.680 --> 00:56:49.480
of my problem is, I'm not used to, you know, having everything take a whole lot of time.

575
00:56:50.720 --> 00:56:56.320
You know, it's see the problem. Okay, figure out the problem, address the problem, move

576
00:56:56.320 --> 00:57:01.640
on to the next problem. That's just, you know, that that's been my life. And this has been

577
00:57:01.640 --> 00:57:08.800
really an experience where you I can't rush through it. You know, it is certainly taken

578
00:57:08.800 --> 00:57:13.240
time. So the Lord's even brought somebody in my life that has caused me to slow down.

579
00:57:13.640 --> 00:57:20.040
You know, I think laying me down out on my back, forced me to slow down. And really just

580
00:57:20.040 --> 00:57:26.480
here and be cognizant of the fact that I really, you know, like Christ, I want to abide in

581
00:57:26.480 --> 00:57:31.960
the Holy Spirit at all times. So I'm always cognizant of what what God is saying, or doing

582
00:57:31.960 --> 00:57:37.480
and not, you know, stepping out on my own, which is, which for me, especially is just,

583
00:57:37.480 --> 00:57:44.440
you know, one of my big challenges. But but you are correct, you know, and yeah, that

584
00:57:44.440 --> 00:57:49.160
last year was was quite the year. And most of the things that you know, expected for

585
00:57:49.160 --> 00:57:55.080
last year just did not come to fruition the way that I had anticipated. But if I look

586
00:57:55.120 --> 00:57:59.040
at where the Lord has brought me and the growth that he's brought me through, and the

587
00:57:59.040 --> 00:58:03.480
understanding that I've been given in a lot of these things, then you know, then praise

588
00:58:03.480 --> 00:58:09.680
God that that's, you know, that that is certainly worth it. Not just for my life, but

589
00:58:09.680 --> 00:58:14.320
hopefully from the lives of others that I'll be affecting as well as, as we move forward.

590
00:58:14.680 --> 00:58:16.920
And I think that's something that would benefit all of us.

591
00:58:17.920 --> 00:58:24.840
It's a very important conversation. I appreciate you sharing. This is this is, this is

592
00:58:24.840 --> 00:58:29.360
the battle for those of us who, and I think that's all of us on the call who are high

593
00:58:29.360 --> 00:58:38.120
capacity people with strong spirits. Because sometimes we can in an effort to live by

594
00:58:38.120 --> 00:58:44.360
faith and trust the Lord, quote, unquote, we can bypass the needs of our body and soul.

595
00:58:44.720 --> 00:58:52.560
Yeah. And in our body and souls need time. And just because something is wrong, doesn't

596
00:58:52.560 --> 00:58:57.680
mean that we are wrong. And I think that's where the mix up is. I'll speak for myself.

597
00:58:57.680 --> 00:59:01.800
I'm not I'm not saying this is what you did, Xavier. But there is some similar, there are

598
00:59:01.800 --> 00:59:07.880
some similar similarities with you and I where I can just I have a high emotional pain

599
00:59:07.880 --> 00:59:15.000
threshold. And I can bypass the needs of my body and my soul, my mind, my emotions, right?

600
00:59:15.120 --> 00:59:20.240
Because I'm just wanting to get through it. I'm just wanting to overcome. I'm just wanting

601
00:59:20.240 --> 00:59:26.440
to be good for God, right? And you can only do that for so long.

602
00:59:26.440 --> 00:59:31.840
For so long. No, I hear you. And I definitely receive that because I am exactly the same

603
00:59:31.840 --> 00:59:33.320
way. You know,

604
00:59:34.680 --> 00:59:42.040
what is key is the shame piece. Yeah. This is what's so subtle. And shout out to Ashley. I

605
00:59:42.040 --> 00:59:46.480
mentioned her on last night's call because she's really you talk about you talk about getting

606
00:59:46.480 --> 00:59:52.080
someone that helps you articulate like she's been a real gift to me because I was living with

607
00:59:52.080 --> 00:59:56.640
subtle shame. I didn't even realize I had because what was going on if something was wrong

608
00:59:56.640 --> 01:00:00.160
externally, I immediately took internal responsibility.

609
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:05.760
responsibility for it. Responsibility to fix it, responsibility to change it, responsibility

610
01:00:05.760 --> 01:00:11.960
to control it. And that's shame, because if something was wrong out here, it meant something

611
01:00:11.960 --> 01:00:16.240
that I would take that I would internalize it as something is wrong with me. And then

612
01:00:16.240 --> 01:00:21.320
I was living in shame and condemnation without realizing it, and it was affecting everything,

613
01:00:21.320 --> 01:00:26.520
including the external, right. So I'm really encouraged, Xavier, to hear that you're taking

614
01:00:26.520 --> 01:00:31.480
time to slow down, that you're willing to release the pressure of the pace that you

615
01:00:31.480 --> 01:00:36.040
are used to, that you thrive in. Like some people just move fast, that's just how they're

616
01:00:36.040 --> 01:00:41.320
wired, right. And willing to do something different because it's not working. That takes

617
01:00:41.320 --> 01:00:45.960
tremendous trust in the Lord, so I honor you for that. And if any of you are resonating

618
01:00:45.960 --> 01:00:51.880
with that, like take some inventory of am I internalizing because something's wrong

619
01:00:51.880 --> 01:00:57.360
out here, am I taking that on as I am wrong, something is inherently wrong with me as

620
01:00:57.360 --> 01:01:02.040
result shame is. Not just that something is wrong, but that I am wrong. Sometimes we let

621
01:01:02.040 --> 01:01:08.200
shame allow us to talk us into something that is not something the Lord is requiring us,

622
01:01:08.200 --> 01:01:14.960
and we're bypassing what is our emotions need, our mind needs, our body needs in order to

623
01:01:14.960 --> 01:01:21.400
heal and learn how to be spirit led. And then what happens is there's a breakdown with our

624
01:01:21.400 --> 01:01:26.560
body and soul, and there's no trust internally, because we continue to kind of beat our body

625
01:01:26.560 --> 01:01:30.280
and souls into submissions and let instead of gently allowing them to be learned to be

626
01:01:30.280 --> 01:01:34.760
spirit led. So and for more on that, take Ashley's rest.

627
01:01:36.680 --> 01:01:42.280
I may I may have to do that. But thank you also for articulating that because honestly,

628
01:01:42.320 --> 01:01:47.400
I've never looked at that as shame. And as you explained it, I'm going well, no, I'm

629
01:01:47.400 --> 01:01:53.320
checking off all the boxes, going, that's never how I looked at it. But, but obviously,

630
01:01:53.320 --> 01:01:59.240
that that's, there's more there. So yeah, so actually, when you put out your, your, your

631
01:01:59.240 --> 01:02:06.640
advertisements and whatnot, make sure that I see it, because I need that extremely,

632
01:02:06.680 --> 01:02:11.080
extremely effective, extremely helpful, especially for leaders, like actually has the

633
01:02:11.080 --> 01:02:16.920
grace for leaders. So it's, I would highly recommend it. If anybody, you guys have

634
01:02:16.920 --> 01:02:20.200
questions, you can ask me a specific question. Hey, Susie.

635
01:02:21.400 --> 01:02:28.960
Hi. So as Xavier was talking, I was thinking, okay, I feel like you guys are all the

636
01:02:28.960 --> 01:02:40.080
miners, and I'm the one selling the blue jeans. And, and, you know, because Greek words,

637
01:02:40.160 --> 01:02:45.920
that, you know, it's nourished me, it's fascinated me. And I feel like those who are

638
01:02:45.920 --> 01:02:54.320
doing the work would be benefited by knowing, oh, you know, the Greek word for don't be

639
01:02:54.320 --> 01:02:59.760
anxious is really don't be distracted. Or the fact that the Holy Spirit really is look at all

640
01:02:59.760 --> 01:03:05.200
these verses, the Holy Spirit is calling us near and that's what comfort is. So I feel like those

641
01:03:05.200 --> 01:03:10.720
are important concepts. When I talk to anybody about them, they're glad their eyes glaze over.

642
01:03:11.360 --> 01:03:17.520
And I'm beyond because it's interesting to me, but not interesting to somebody else. And I also

643
01:03:17.520 --> 01:03:23.520
feel like probably I'm not selling blue jeans, I'm selling some are not selling wanting to give

644
01:03:23.520 --> 01:03:30.240
away some obscure thing that people don't even know they need, or don't, you know, feel any kind

645
01:03:30.240 --> 01:03:36.000
of a need for. And when I did my landing page, I felt pretty good about it. And then I went back

646
01:03:36.000 --> 01:03:42.880
and looked over the pastors list. And I thought, shoot, you know, I didn't address, you know, do

647
01:03:42.880 --> 01:03:48.800
you feel this need? Or, you know, this is a life changing thing for me, except that I was able to

648
01:03:48.800 --> 01:03:58.480
say, I went from head knowledge to Oh, Holy Spirit, use these things. And, oh, yeah, it is

649
01:03:58.480 --> 01:04:04.560
about when I come across a verse that I don't get that I can just receive it by saying thank you,

650
01:04:04.560 --> 01:04:12.240
and trusting the Holy Spirit to work, you know, in me. So I'm still, I'm still kind of,

651
01:04:12.800 --> 01:04:20.400
obviously still kind of stuck. And what I would like to do is just go back to posting about,

652
01:04:20.960 --> 01:04:29.520
hey, look at this is about our gut. And, and when I think about the post that I want to do is like,

653
01:04:29.520 --> 01:04:34.560
oh, here's this wonderful, wonderful verse that I don't know what to do with, like,

654
01:04:35.520 --> 01:04:43.440
the fullness of the Godhead bodily dwelleth in my Lord, and I am full in him. Amen. I love that.

655
01:04:44.320 --> 01:04:49.760
What do I do with that? You know, how does that apply to my life? And, and I really believe that

656
01:04:49.760 --> 01:04:58.240
the only answer to that is, Holy Spirit knows how to apply that to my life, in this moment.

657
01:04:58.240 --> 01:04:59.840
And it's unique.

658
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:04.600
And so I want to throw out that word and say, ask Holy Spirit,

659
01:05:04.600 --> 01:05:08.800
because nobody else can understand or help. But what do

660
01:05:08.800 --> 01:05:13.480
we do if we don't really trust the Holy Spirit to do that? And

661
01:05:13.480 --> 01:05:18.720
I'm also realizing in my whole life, I tried to make things

662
01:05:18.720 --> 01:05:23.360
happen, because I didn't really trust the Lord to be doing it.

663
01:05:23.400 --> 01:05:26.560
And that's pretty much still what I'm doing with this, you

664
01:05:26.560 --> 01:05:31.600
know, in the structure, if I just do this, and, and knowing

665
01:05:31.600 --> 01:05:35.320
no, I just need, I get to whatever, trusting the Holy

666
01:05:35.320 --> 01:05:39.360
Spirit, he does know what he's doing. And you mentioned this,

667
01:05:39.360 --> 01:05:43.880
Lindsay, a couple times, I find that I'm, I'm talking to Lord

668
01:05:43.880 --> 01:05:47.720
about an idea. And then I click into, okay, and how would I put

669
01:05:47.720 --> 01:05:51.320
this into words? And, you know, how would I do a tick tock on

670
01:05:51.320 --> 01:05:54.080
this? And what are the bullet points on this, instead of

671
01:05:54.080 --> 01:05:58.720
having that conversation with the Lord, and believing that it

672
01:05:58.720 --> 01:06:04.360
will get planted down deep in me, and it will come up. But to

673
01:06:04.360 --> 01:06:07.120
not let that I think you're mentioning about, oh, you

674
01:06:07.120 --> 01:06:08.920
realize you thought you were talking to the Lord, but you

675
01:06:08.920 --> 01:06:12.880
were actually talking to your audience. And, and that, that

676
01:06:12.880 --> 01:06:18.240
kind of feeling. So I guess my feeling is, like I said, you

677
01:06:18.240 --> 01:06:20.640
guys, you guys all have ministries, you all have

678
01:06:20.640 --> 01:06:25.760
wonderful things you're putting out there. And I guess I've

679
01:06:25.760 --> 01:06:29.120
given up on trying to help people. And I just want to open

680
01:06:29.120 --> 01:06:33.080
up a space where I'm listening to people, knowing that the Holy

681
01:06:33.080 --> 01:06:36.240
Spirit is already talking to them. And I don't know what that

682
01:06:36.240 --> 01:06:39.840
ministry is. I'm part of an online community that I will

683
01:06:39.840 --> 01:06:42.960
have that opportunity. And I do talk to people where I will have

684
01:06:42.960 --> 01:06:46.720
that opportunity. But it's not like a class or a course or

685
01:06:46.720 --> 01:06:47.720
anything like that.

686
01:06:48.120 --> 01:06:50.440
Yeah, I mean, you're addressing two different things. And it's

687
01:06:50.440 --> 01:06:54.240
output and input. So you have a desire for input, you have a

688
01:06:54.240 --> 01:06:57.840
desire to have like an ironing, sharpening iron community. And

689
01:06:57.840 --> 01:07:00.560
it sounds like you're well on your way to exploring that with

690
01:07:00.560 --> 01:07:02.920
your online community. Like you might not have it locally, but

691
01:07:02.920 --> 01:07:07.680
you've got people that do have a similar interest to kind of sit

692
01:07:07.720 --> 01:07:11.720
and think with the Lord about like deep concepts and stuff.

693
01:07:12.040 --> 01:07:15.800
That's it. That's input. That's for your personal benefit, your

694
01:07:15.840 --> 01:07:19.760
growth, your, your strengthening, but then there's

695
01:07:19.760 --> 01:07:24.680
the output, which has traditionally been, so far has

696
01:07:24.680 --> 01:07:29.080
been like the sharing of like the aha of the Greek words, the

697
01:07:29.080 --> 01:07:33.240
original meanings of things and stuff like that. So those are

698
01:07:33.240 --> 01:07:36.200
two things. Those are two different things. There could be

699
01:07:36.200 --> 01:07:39.320
convergence at some point, like you could get to a place where

700
01:07:39.320 --> 01:07:44.240
you're leading the type of community that, like, that's

701
01:07:44.240 --> 01:07:47.480
what kingdom messengers became for me is I kind of started

702
01:07:47.480 --> 01:07:50.680
leading a community that I needed when I started out that I

703
01:07:50.680 --> 01:07:59.040
didn't have. But you know, there has it would it that became my

704
01:07:59.040 --> 01:08:02.400
output, I couldn't make it both my input and output. Now,

705
01:08:02.400 --> 01:08:04.800
there's naturally some input you guys pour into me, right? Like

706
01:08:04.800 --> 01:08:07.760
there's just an iron sharpening iron happening, but there has to

707
01:08:07.760 --> 01:08:12.080
be a leader. Otherwise, it would just there would be if no one

708
01:08:12.080 --> 01:08:14.200
was if I was on the call, and I was like, well, here's what I'm

709
01:08:14.200 --> 01:08:16.439
doing, and everything like that no one was really leading.

710
01:08:16.479 --> 01:08:18.359
First of all, we could be on here for three hours, and no

711
01:08:18.359 --> 01:08:21.840
one's really being activated or, you know, so there has to be a

712
01:08:21.840 --> 01:08:26.520
leader, right? I can't, I can't, I can't let my place of output

713
01:08:26.560 --> 01:08:32.479
be my place of primary input. And vice versa. I can't posture

714
01:08:32.479 --> 01:08:35.920
is my place of output. It can't be my place of input. I can't be

715
01:08:35.920 --> 01:08:40.120
letting people you know, that I have no relationship with, like,

716
01:08:40.160 --> 01:08:43.240
I can't be taking their voices at the same level of influences

717
01:08:43.240 --> 01:08:46.680
that I would have mentor. Right? So that's what you have

718
01:08:46.680 --> 01:08:53.359
to kind of decide, Susie, like, what is my output going to be in

719
01:08:53.359 --> 01:08:58.120
the season? What is my input going to be? And they're

720
01:08:58.120 --> 01:09:01.479
probably going to be different. Because what you need, as far

721
01:09:01.479 --> 01:09:07.560
as input, you're not ready to make that your your output. Does

722
01:09:07.560 --> 01:09:08.680
that does that help?

723
01:09:09.640 --> 01:09:13.720
I'm not exactly sure what you're meaning by input.

724
01:09:14.120 --> 01:09:16.520
Yeah. So you're saying like, I want to sit with people and be

725
01:09:16.520 --> 01:09:18.760
like, I don't know what this verse means. What do you think

726
01:09:18.760 --> 01:09:22.520
it means? Like, I want input, I need I need some mentorship, or

727
01:09:22.520 --> 01:09:26.359
I need some peer community that have that similar interest and

728
01:09:26.359 --> 01:09:31.160
drive to like, dive deep into the scriptures. I want that.

729
01:09:32.000 --> 01:09:36.200
Right? That's not what I know. That's not what I'm saying. What

730
01:09:36.520 --> 01:09:39.800
what I'm saying is, I've got it. And it's really hard to shut up

731
01:09:39.800 --> 01:09:44.200
about it. But that's what the Lord saying. And I've got this,

732
01:09:44.240 --> 01:09:49.240
I'm holding this out to you and inviting you to tell me what you

733
01:09:49.240 --> 01:09:54.000
think about it, and listen to you and give you space to think

734
01:09:54.000 --> 01:10:00.120
about it. But, you know, obviously, I gained

735
01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:07.040
insight from people, but I'm not looking at it from an input position. It's more like here's

736
01:10:07.040 --> 01:10:18.800
raw materials for you to use. And how do you offer somebody raw materials that they don't know that

737
01:10:18.800 --> 01:10:25.360
they need? I guess. Okay, thank you for that clarity. I think that you have to go back to

738
01:10:25.360 --> 01:10:31.040
the blueprint of where does this fit as far as is this tribe level stuff? Like am I building a

739
01:10:31.040 --> 01:10:36.800
tribe of people? Is this kind of a community level engagement or is this like people meeting me for

740
01:10:36.800 --> 01:10:43.920
the first time? So your TikToks, your traffic engagement, you're not going to be handing out

741
01:10:43.920 --> 01:10:49.040
the same type of depth of material that you would be giving your mentorship, like your people that

742
01:10:49.040 --> 01:10:55.200
you're meeting with maybe say weekly, right? That's a different crowd. That's a different

743
01:10:56.320 --> 01:11:02.960
commitment level even. And it's a different level of context and understanding because

744
01:11:03.760 --> 01:11:09.040
the people that might join a weekly conversation with you or mentorship around that are going to

745
01:11:09.040 --> 01:11:14.000
have a different level of knowing you and relationship with you than people who are

746
01:11:14.000 --> 01:11:20.080
meeting you for the first time in TikTok. You can't give that same amount of material. Like I

747
01:11:20.080 --> 01:11:25.760
can't give an advancement call on TikTok. It would not translate. There'd be too many gaps, right?

748
01:11:26.400 --> 01:11:31.600
Now maybe there's a soundbite in here that might be a universal truth that I could share that

749
01:11:31.600 --> 01:11:36.960
people could, but we can't do, I can't do a lot. I can't just jump on my TikTok and do a live one

750
01:11:36.960 --> 01:11:41.040
hour mentorship with people. There's not relationship for that type of relationship

751
01:11:41.040 --> 01:11:46.960
form. So you've got to go back to that blueprint and say, what do I want to be doing? What do I

752
01:11:46.960 --> 01:11:50.480
want to spend most of my time doing? If it is that like kind of, hey, I want to meet weekly

753
01:11:50.480 --> 01:11:56.320
with people. I want to be pouring into people that get it and want to like dive in. What can

754
01:11:56.320 --> 01:12:02.240
I be doing in my traffic source to kind of bring people through to that level? So like, you know,

755
01:12:02.240 --> 01:12:07.760
Ashley's talking about, you know, challenges leading people into a deeper dive in an intensive.

756
01:12:07.760 --> 01:12:12.560
Walt is talking about doing that with people, buying a course and curriculum. Xavier was talking

757
01:12:12.560 --> 01:12:17.440
about doing that with his webinar. So you just have to ask yourself like where, where, how can I

758
01:12:17.440 --> 01:12:22.400
take that information kind of bite size and bring people to a journey where there is a deeper dive,

759
01:12:22.400 --> 01:12:31.280
but you can't be giving out raw materials on TikTok. Um, I may be, we have different ideas

760
01:12:31.280 --> 01:12:40.880
of what raw materials are, because my idea is here's a verse. Um, what do we do with it?

761
01:12:41.520 --> 01:12:46.640
And just leave what we do with it is ask the Holy spirit. What are we going to do with that? And Oh,

762
01:12:46.640 --> 01:12:54.400
by the way, he will show up. And, um, so I think that I don't know if it will ever happen,

763
01:12:54.400 --> 01:13:01.040
but I would like to have that be something that somebody else can pick up and take to their group.

764
01:13:01.440 --> 01:13:07.440
And say, you know, here, listen, think about this or, you know, with the collection of,

765
01:13:07.440 --> 01:13:14.880
of verses about having our mind restored that somebody who's teaching restored mind could pick

766
01:13:14.880 --> 01:13:20.240
this up because it's just a compact collection of verses so that they don't have to do all of

767
01:13:20.240 --> 01:13:28.480
that groundwork and homework by themselves. Um, I, I know what you're saying about gathering a

768
01:13:28.480 --> 01:13:35.760
tribe and gathering a community. And I'm not even sure if that's what the Lord has me doing this

769
01:13:35.760 --> 01:13:43.360
for. So maybe this is just a, you know, an opportunity for, um, a one-on-one call because

770
01:13:43.360 --> 01:13:48.560
it doesn't apply to everybody else. Yeah. We'll definitely talk about it in your strategy call.

771
01:13:48.560 --> 01:13:52.880
I think we can definitely dive deep. I think what is helpful for the rest of the people that you

772
01:13:52.880 --> 01:13:58.800
shared to hear is, am I creating a tribe? Like, am I creating something that's live? Am I creating

773
01:13:58.800 --> 01:14:02.400
a product? Because what some of the things you could be doing is you're saying like, I want to,

774
01:14:02.400 --> 01:14:06.080
you're saying a couple of different things. Like now you're saying I might want to resource people

775
01:14:06.080 --> 01:14:11.520
that are teaching this to somebody else. Like that's a product. So we'll talk about it different

776
01:14:11.520 --> 01:14:17.600
in your, but you gotta be, you gotta be considering there's things that we want that might just be an

777
01:14:17.600 --> 01:14:21.920
input want for now. Like, Hey, I want to be having these conversations with people, right? Like I

778
01:14:21.920 --> 01:14:27.200
want to be at this level. Like that could be an input want or need, like I need to find a community

779
01:14:27.200 --> 01:14:31.040
because that's the kind of input I want. Then there's the output desire. Like this is the kind

780
01:14:31.040 --> 01:14:34.000
of transformation I want to be bringing people. This is what I want to be teaching. This is what

781
01:14:34.000 --> 01:14:41.120
I want to be leading people in. And then if kind of getting clear with that, what steps can I take

782
01:14:41.120 --> 01:14:46.880
to help kind of find people in the broader net of social media and what do I need to bring them

783
01:14:46.880 --> 01:14:51.680
into? It might not be a mentorship community. It could be a product. It could be a curriculum

784
01:14:51.680 --> 01:14:56.000
that you're building. It could be a course. So we can talk more about that in your strategy call,

785
01:14:56.000 --> 01:14:59.840
but you know, you've got a lot of amazing content. So there's a lot.

786
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:05.840
a potential it's just deciding how to organize it so that you're getting the the response and the

787
01:15:05.840 --> 01:15:09.440
interaction that you're wanting because I think there might just be some confusion of you're

788
01:15:09.440 --> 01:15:13.200
putting it maybe something out on a platform and you're not happy with the response you're getting

789
01:15:13.200 --> 01:15:17.760
it might just be the path it might be how it's being packaged maybe how the materials are being

790
01:15:17.760 --> 01:15:21.600
presented that need to be in a different form for a different type of audience.

791
01:15:25.040 --> 01:15:29.840
Yeah but it's good it's good to look it's good to pinpoint these frustrations because that's how

792
01:15:30.240 --> 01:15:34.240
we're going to be able to move past it move forward what's not working so that we can advance

793
01:15:34.240 --> 01:15:38.800
in what is working what will work so it's a great conversation. We are coming up on time

794
01:15:39.360 --> 01:15:47.120
so I want to I know we didn't get to everyone but I want to honor people's time so great call guys

795
01:15:47.120 --> 01:15:51.920
thank you for everyone that shared let this be a promo to go ahead and set up your strategy calls

796
01:15:51.920 --> 01:15:57.600
with me because there's some good conversation to be had and if there's something tech related

797
01:15:57.600 --> 01:16:02.960
don't hesitate to reach out and do the tech call be on the lookout for the admin course from Bruce

798
01:16:02.960 --> 01:16:07.360
and because of our conversation today with Amy I'm also going to ask Bruce to do a little bit

799
01:16:07.360 --> 01:16:11.200
of just I don't think it's going to be very long but like this is how we hire our VAs or these

800
01:16:11.200 --> 01:16:14.720
are ways that we can start delegating some of the admins and things that you guys can start thinking

801
01:16:14.720 --> 01:16:19.280
of so that you can free yourselves up to focus on what it is that only you can do which is that

802
01:16:19.280 --> 01:16:23.680
content creation piece so thank you so much and if you guys had questions burning questions that

803
01:16:23.680 --> 01:16:27.520
you did not get answered you can go ahead and drop it into our Facebook group and tag me

804
01:16:27.520 --> 01:16:32.480
and we will get those answers so thank you guys so much we'll talk soon.
