3936 Live Fully Alive
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Oftentimes, we push ourselves at breakneck speed—racing to check boxes, chasing the next big win, believing that if we just move faster, work harder, and try more, success will finally land in our lap. But as John De Paola said, “Slow down, and everything you are chasing will come around and catch you.” In a world obsessed with hustle, this is not a call for complacency. It’s an invitation to step off the relentless carousel and rediscover the power of intentional living; live fully alive! Too many of us tie ourselves to the chains of past failures, letting every missed shot dictate...

3934 Quit Waiting for a Guarantee
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Life doesn’t hand out guarantees. No matter how much you want a smooth ride or a sure win, it simply doesn’t work that way. Success, growth, and reaching your goals come from one thing above all else—intention. How you think, decide, and act every single day shapes whether you make it across the finish line. So quit waiting for a guarantee. When you’re chasing something brand new—whether it’s launching a business, changing careers, or mastering a skill—there’s no autopilot.

3933 How Grief Affects Your Mindset
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Grief isn’t just about losing a loved one. It’s a full-body, mind-consuming response to any meaningful loss: a job, a home, a relationship, a dream gone sideways. If you don’t understand how grief rewires your mindset, it can trap you in a mental box where all you see is what’s broken—and how far you are from climbing out of that dark hole. When you understand how grief affects your mindset, you get why you're paralyzed, stuck replaying the what, why, and how over and over, missing the possibility of what’s next. So let’s get real: grief is brutal, disorienting, and...

3932 Stand Firm on God's Holy Ground
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Walking in step with God is never a passive journey, especially when the world around you seems determined to pull you off course.

How do you fight this spiritual battle without losing your soul? Stand firm on God's Holy ground. You must begin to recognize the battlefield beyond the visible, only what...

3931 Dream Bigger Together
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
The new year brings that electric buzz of new beginnings and fresh possibilities. When you’re married to your person—the one you dream about and build life with—it only makes sense to dream bigger together. Because, really, who wouldn’t want a richer, more exciting life for themselves and their spouse? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the .

3930 Intentional Parenting that Moves Mountains
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Every new year brings a fresh chance to hit the reset button — including how you show up as a parent. But let's be real: parenting is hard, exhausting, and often thankless. If you coast through it, thinking your kids will "figure it out," you’re setting everyone up for frustration and chaos. Kids need more than just food and shelter; they need consistent guidance, love, and boundaries; it's intentional parenting that moves mountains. Because when you slack off, what you get is exactly what you put in — kids who push limits, test boundaries, and fill the void left by absent parenting....

3928 What If Forward Progress Requires Forgiveness?
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Every New Year arrives heavy with promises! However, let’s be honest, you've gotta fair share of frustration, too. For millions, those well-meaning resolutions quickly unravel, leaving behind guilt and the familiar cycle of “I failed again.” But the harsh truth is that pushing yourself to “fix” every flaw with iron willpower only sets up a battle you can’t win long-term. So what if forward progress requires forgiveness in your healthy living? Well-being doesn’t emerge from beating yourself into a different person. Yet all too often, that’s exactly the approach New Year’s...

3927 Get Back Up!
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
You're probably all too familiar with the grinding season—the one where your to-do list feels like Mount Everest, your energy dips, and then the holidays roll in like a relentless tide. It’s the time when surviving feels like a win. But what if you didn’t just survive? What if you conquered this season with your heart still beating loud and your goals clearly in view? Get back up!

You can't predict what will happen daily, but you can choose how you respond to what comes at you.
I played basketball in high school-- but that was in P.E. class. I was not on any team, just in the class, because it was required. Now, the only sport I really liked was ice skating, so you can imagine my lack of enthusiasm to play anything, let alone basketball.
One day, the ball came at me so fast that a blink would make anyone miss. There I was, the one who had her hand not placed to receive the throw, and my finger was broken.
As a musician, this was devastating. I could feel all the goals and dreams I wanted begin to slip away.
But the fight came when I decided to win by navigating my way through the detour. Did you know you can play an open-hole flute with a splint on your ring finger?
I made the choice to figure out how to survive the fall and fight to win!
The K.I.S.S. ~ Fight to win!
Are you doing what you need to do in this season of life? Are you having those tough conversations first with yourself and then with those who need to have them with you?
You can keep moving forward when the walls around you are crumbling.
So what are you waiting for? What is really holding you back?
What can you do today to impact tomorrow?
And don't give me the song and dance that says, "You're too busy or you don't have time." I've been on that train many times before. And if you choose to stay on that train, you will take all of your dreams and bury them with you when you're six feet under.
But at this moment, you can make a decision that will turn the tide. You can calm the chaos in your head and focus on the next step in your heart so you can fight to win.
Let's get real and raw! What really matters that deserves your attention? In other words, where are you going to fight to win?
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
