Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
It’s far too easy in marriage to zero in on what’s going wrong. The missed chore, the forgotten plan, the tone that didn’t land right—these moments quickly stack up and drown out the good. But here’s the reality that often slips under the radar: every little bit of positive effort your spouse makes matters. When’s the last time you gave them credit for what’s going right? Because when it comes to lasting love, every little bit counts. Think about it: if a football game was scored like a negative ledger, where the goal was to stay at zero mistakes, nobody would play with passion...

No parent is perfect. You can pour your heart into your kid’s well-being, yet blindspots still lurk—those moments or patterns you don’t see but quietly chip away at your relationship or their growth. Oh—the unspoken truths parents miss. Of course, the blindspots are certainly the unspoken truths we miss, the habits we defend, or the patterns we dismiss as “well, this is just how it is.” Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the . Have you even given much thought as to your blindspots? The question is not whether you have blindspots...

Why do we cling so tightly to our routines, sticking to the scripts we've written for ourselves even when life is whispering for us to improvise? Maybe because it’s comfortable. Predictable. Safe.

What have you been doing this week? Are you stuck in the same ole thing, hoping that something will change? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the .

Let’s be real—healthy living often feels like a chore. If it’s all work and no ease, why would anyone stick with it? When peace feels impossible—when your mind races, stress mounts, and moments of calm seem like a distant memory—don’t throw in the towel on what truly matters for your health. Because it’s no surprise that most of us coast along without much effort until something drastic forces us to change. But here’s the hard truth: waiting for a crisis to hit before you care about your body is a losing game. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?...

Too often, we find ourselves tangled in the web of worry about what tomorrow might bring. We obsess over unknowns, crafting scenarios that drain our energy and steal our peace.

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.

When you’re sprinting through life’s endless to-do list, hopping from one task to the next, your brain turns into a cluttered mess.

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?

It’s easy to get stuck in the trap of frustration—wishing for different circumstances, a different outcome, or a different life.

info_outlineIn life, we often find ourselves facing unexpected challenges and circumstances that threaten to derail our plans and aspirations. The question then arises: do our circumstances dictate our next steps?

"Control is a great thing until you can't do it. Unfortunately, that applies to life; the only guarantee in life is change. Change is a constant. Therefore, if you cannot control it, then do your circumstances dictate your next steps?" ~ Kristianne Wargo
In the face of adversity, life is unpredictable. And that's all the more reason for the importance of resilience and determination. While circumstances may present obstacles, they should not dictate our path forward. You've gotta fall toward your dreams!
The K.I.S.S. ~ Fall toward your dreams!
Here are three actionable steps to shift your focus towards your goals, rather than allowing circumstances to dictate your next steps:
1. Cultivate a Positive Mindset: Embrace a mindset of resilience and optimism, viewing challenges as opportunities for growth and learning.
"Our mindset plays a crucial role in determining our response to challenges. By maintaining a positive outlook, we can overcome obstacles with grace and determination." ~ Kristianne Wargo
2. Set Clear Goals and Prioritize: Define your goals and priorities, breaking them down into manageable steps.
"Setting clear goals empowers us to stay focused on our objectives, regardless of external circumstances. By prioritizing tasks and actions, we can make steady progress towards our aspirations." ~ Kristianne Wargo
3. Seek Support and Guidance: Surround yourself with a supportive network of friends, mentors, and resources to help you navigate challenging times.
"We are not meant to face challenges alone. Reach out to trusted individuals who can provide encouragement, advice, and perspective during difficult times." ~ Kristianne Wargo
While life's circumstances may pose obstacles, it is essential to maintain focus on your goals and aspirations. Your dreams matter!
"Do not let your circumstances define your future. Embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and keep falling toward your dreams." ~ Kristianne Wargo
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
