REVIEW OF THE WEEK: 

Kara012994

I just started listening to your podcast and I truly believe God has sent me to you. Thank you for being so positive and brightening my day. 

WHAT DOES FREEDOM HAVE TO DO WITH CONFIDENCE?

Noun: 

the power or right to act, speak or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint.

BE YOU, BE FREE: WHAT DOES IT MEAN? 

It starts with the most basic of all taglines – let’s explore what mine actually means

It requires being emotionally brave to understand what you might be enslaved to.

“Be you, be free.”

This is a tagline that settled into my heart when I first started blogging and podcasting. It felt right and it was simple and clear.

I had learned that when I was myself, when I was actually Trish, that I then felt the most alive. I think that the best word to describe that state of being absolutely alive is being “free.”

Being “free” gave me permission to make mistakes, to fail, to be goofy, to be myself, to be daring, to be bolder in my faith, to be curious, to be human. 

It let me be the Trish that I was when I was a little girl. Unafraid of rejection. Safe within the walls of my parents’ love – even though their relationship was up and down, their love for me wasn’t. 

Previous, I was consumed and constrained. Restrained by the pressure I put on myself, by the cage I had put around myself in protection, by the complications and challenges of anxiety and self-sabotage I had set up for myself …. internally I wanted to be a child again, to be alive, to be unrestricted, to be joyous.  My heart craved freedom. True freedom. 

I believe that the key to freedom starts with identity.

HOW DO CAN YOU LEARN TO “BE YOU, BE FREE?” 

Be You.

Figure out how to be you. 

Best advice ever given to me: “Just go be Trish Blackwell.”

• How to Feel Confident About Who You Are, Episode #244

• Laughing With Yourself + Stop Taking Life So Seriously, Episode #153 

• Be Who You Are, Not Who You Were, Episode #11 

Be Free.

Get serious about freedom in your life.

Identify what is holding you back.

Look at the cage you’ve allowed yourself to stay stuck in and break out – you have the keys. 

HOW TO HAVE THE CONFIDENCE I HAVE 

Be you.

Be free.

Experiment with this and dare to do things differently.

God decided that, of all people in history and to come, that there needed to be a you.

You don’t have to have all the plans figured out, because God has plans for you.

The thing that gives me the most confidence, peace and freedom >>>>

God promises me that I am not alone.

God tells me that He has a perfect, prosperous plan for me.

God has my life in His hands, I need not work to control it, plan it or be anxious about it. 

God made me to be me, and I can trust who He made me to be – and the things He’s refining in my heart as He develops me. 

God hears me.

Jeremiah 29:11-14

“For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray, I will listen. If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me.” 

For I know the plan I have for you, declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back from captivity.” 

ANNOUNCING OUR NEW PARTNERSHIP WITH THE A21 CAMPAIGN

The College of Confidence Mission Statement: 

We exist to mobilize women to walk in freedom from self-doubt, from unactivated faith, from living small and from living anything less than the life of abundance, fullness, and light that God created them for.  Our “confidence” specific coaching approach equips women to live with more confidence and courage so that they can step into the calling God has put on their hearts.

We believe that everyone is created in the image of God and deserves freedom. Every life matters and we want to see everyone walk in freedom, so, for every membership fee and dollar spent on the College of Confidence, we donate 10% to the A21 Campaign. We are passionate about supporting and raising awareness for A21 and consider ourselves modern-day abolitionists, determined to eradicate slavery forever. 

About the A21 Campaign:

A21 is a non-profit organization fueled by the radical hope that human beings everywhere will be rescued from bondage and completely restored. Human trafficking is the fastest-growing criminal industry in the world, generating more than $150 billion USD every year. 

Human trafficking is a $150 billion industry. Only 1% of the victims are ever rescued. 

Those statistics are daunting—and they lose the human element. The heart of A21 is for the one. The one woman, the one man, the one child trapped and exploited, unable to see another end to their story. But A21 sees the one, and fights for the one. 

We support A21 so that survivors of human trafficking can be given freedom, independence, and the chance at a better story.

By supporting A21, our business, and all those who support our business, is joining them in their mission to end slavery worldwide—by reducing vulnerability, identifying victims, and empowering survivors—to ultimately reach, rescue, and restore lives.

Human trafficking is robbing millions of their freedom. But we are coming alongside A21 to change that. Because we believe when we all do our part in the fight against slavery, we will see more lives experience freedom, independence, and full restoration. You can find out more about the A21 Campaign at www.a21.org. 

JOIN IN WITH US IN THE FREEDOM FIGHT.

We are boldly working together to raise 100,000 to fight for freedom and to abolish slavery worldwide.

LISTENER OF THE EPISODE:

Excellent email my soul sister!

“You are good at doing hard things.”

Haha….ain’t that the truth… but the immediate question this drew up was “but am I good at allowing things to be easy?”

Life in balance, I’ve proven (over & over again), that I am terrific at doing hard things, 

but I’m not so great at not doing.

We are human beings, not human doings…

I have to keep reminding myself of that!

Thanks for this email and everything else that you offer the world

Sparkle on soul sister!!
