Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Every journey, every success, and every change begins with a seed. Not just a physical seed planted in soil, but the unseen seeds you plant daily through your mindset, words, actions, and choices. You were created on purpose for a purpose, and living into that purpose is the real prize. What you build—your relationships, your business, your character—everything starts as a seed, and it requires intentionality for it to grow. The truth is simple: you will harvest what you sow. The seeds you plant today become the outcomes you face tomorrow. That’s why it’s critical to focus on planting...

When life pounds hard and hope feels distant, despair and discouragement can grip tightly. It’s easy to believe the story has ended, that the mess and pain will define us permanently. Yet our God is not just the God of beginnings—He’s the God of do-overs. God is constantly moving, always creating new paths where none seem to exist.

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

As parents, it's hard to know if what we are saying is sticking. Sometimes, we talk in circles and nothing seems to change. Whatever you do, don't give up when your words feel small. You know what it's like to talk in circles, replay the same conversations, and wonder if any of it actually lands. Those moments when your words feel small—like they barely ripple the surface—can shake even the most confident parent. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

Why is it that we rise to the complaints of yesterday only to find ourselves seeking what we want for tomorrow, yet we forget about today? There are new mercies every morning; don't take one more day for granted. Too often, we take this gift for granted, letting it slip through our fingers like water.

3816 Just Commitment And The Right Moves show art 3816 Just Commitment And The Right Moves

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Starting roughly in your 30s, your body starts losing muscle mass every year. This isn’t a cosmetic problem—it’s a quality of life issue. Less muscle means lower strength, reduced mobility, slower metabolism, and a higher risk of injury and chronic illness. Muscle isn’t optional; it’s essential if you want to keep living actively and fiercely. All it takes is just commitment and the right moves. So, how do you build muscle? And how do you do it right, especially if fat is more of your story right now? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at...

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Too often, we let the shadow of what might happen tomorrow steal the sunshine of today. Fear of the unknown, worries about future setbacks, or anxieties over “what ifs” take up residence in our minds—and in doing so, they rob us of moments worth celebrating right now. So celebrate today's joys.  Because life isn’t waiting, you don’t get a replay of today’s joy tomorrow. If you don’t celebrate the wins you have today, you’re losing ground.

In a world obsessed with metrics, likes, followers, promotions, or dollar signs, it’s easy to get trapped measuring your worth by numbers you don’t control. But here’s the truth no one tells you loud enough: The score does not matter; the win does. What’s the difference?  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the . The score is the snapshot of progress, often shallow and fleeting—the social proof, the paycheck, the applause.

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Walking in step with God isn’t just a stroll in the park—it’s a gritty, often grueling journey that challenges your patience more than the external chaos of the world. The hardest part isn’t what comes at us from outside, but wrestling with the timing of God’s plan. The truth is, God has already prepared a way before you. He has a place destined for you. But here’s the catch: So when He knows you are ready, the wait is over. We know the feeling all too well. A dream seeds itself deep inside, and you see the vision crystal clear—a powerful calling, a life meant for more. Yet, why...

So long as your past is in the past, you can be present in your marriage. However, many couples struggle because the past is still present. You must stop the madness in your marriage if you want to live happily ever after.

The lingering remnants of our past can cast a long shadow over the present, shaping our relationships in unexpected ways.

Unaddressed traumas, unresolved conflicts, and buried emotions can morph into a looming Mount Everest.

As Kristianne Wargo wisely puts it, "The trash of your past needs to be taken out or it becomes an overwhelming mountain of C.R.A.P. It stinks, it smells, it shackles the heart." 

In order to break free from the chains of the past and pave the way for a thriving marriage, it is imperative to confront the buried burdens head-on.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Confront the buried burdens head-on!

If you choose to hide from the past, it will haunt you down and destroy your marriage.

Put on your big girl panties! I know you have the courage to face your past. I understand it won't be easy and you might even uncover some things you didn't think was a big deal.

But the key is to know and understand to the best of your ability, so you can move forward with confidence that your past is simply that-- your past!

Here are three actionable steps that spouses can take to navigate the complexities of their past and cultivate a healthier present for their marriage:

1. Acknowledge and Accept the Past

Self-awareness serves as the first step towards healing. Recognize the impact of past traumas, generational patterns, and unresolved conflicts on your present behavior and relationships. You can't heal what you don't acknowledge. Stop using the excuse of not knowing, and learn what has been holding you back in your past. By confronting those shadows with honesty and vulnerability, you make a way to reach the freedom to love deeper.

2. Break the Old Patterns

A lot of what we carry with us comes from our past experiences, which are fueled by generational patterns. Our parents and grandparents and everyone in between have an influence on how we lead our lives. However, there comes a point in life where we have to look at what is good for us as an individual and then as a couple. By breaking free from the cycle of generational sins, you create space for personal growth and relational harmony.

Author Haruki Murakami, "If you can't understand it without an explanation, you can't understand it with an explanation." In other words, just because it made sense in the past doesn't mean it is right for you in the present.

3. Forgive to Let Go

Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself first. When you forgive, you are giving away what is burying your heart deep in the dungeon of despair. And then, it's that forgiveness that sweeps away the dust bunnies in the nooks and crannies that steals away your courage to heal from the hurts. You can heal, but you have to forgive to let go! 

As Kristianne Wargo aptly states, "At some point, you have to face your past so you can be present today."

CHALLENGE: How have you dealt with your past? Or have you?

By embarking on this journey of self-discovery, forgiveness, and growth, spouses can unravel the shackles of the past and forge a path toward a more resilient and genuine marriage.

In the timeless words of Maya Angelou, "History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again."

Some things need not be repeated; they must be left in the past and dealt with. Stop the madness in your marriage!

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