Should we celebrate it?

Should we skip it?

This episode will encourage you to “work out your own salvation,” seek the Holy Spirit’s guidance, and walk confidently in what you feel peace about.

First things first - a quick apology! I was out of town this week, and my regular Friday episode didn’t post like it was supposed to. 😅

In this episode, I’m clearing up one of the biggest questions I get: 👉 What’s the difference between coaching and counseling - and which one do I actually need?

Here’s what you’ll learn: ✨ The main focus of counseling - healing, understanding your past, and emotional well-being ✨ The purpose of coaching - personal growth, mindset, confidence, and moving forward ✨ How both can be valuable at different times in your life ✨ Why I offer faith-based coaching for teen girls and how it’s different from therapy

If you’ve ever felt unsure whether you need help processing the past or guidance for your next steps, this episode will help you figure that out.
