3950 Choose What You Carry Forward
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
So much in life is left in the trenches of what we lost or what didn't make it. Success can leave scars as much as failures. But the sting is always greater when something does not go your way. Yet, that's not how your story gets to end. There is joy in the morning, and you get to choose what you carry forward. That choice isn’t because of how much you know or the wit you’ve picked up along the way—though those add richness to your journey. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

3949 Lean Into Leverage
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
If you have a life where everything is perfectly aligned—ideal schedule, boundless energy, and endless resources—great. This isn’t for you. But for the rest of us? Especially when it comes to healthy living, the reality is messier, more complicated, and rarely perfect. So, instead of getting caught up in the magnitude of all the things 'health,' maybe it's all about how you lean into leverage. And not the leverage you are probably thinking of.

3948 Play YOUR Game Always!
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
It’s easy to get caught up in the hustle: where you’re going, what you need to do next, and—most dangerously—what everyone else is doing. When the pressure piles up, it’s tempting to look sideways, to compare your progress, your strategy, or your style to those around you. But if you want to reach places you haven’t been, you have to play YOUR game always! That means something simple yet incredibly powerful: show up as YOU every single day. No noise, no side distractions, no sneaky comparison traps. Just your game on your terms. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other...

3947 Why Fear Is Not What's Holding You Back
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Fear has a sneaky way of showing up and rallying an entire battalion of emotions. Doubt, anxiety, indecision, frustration—they all line up behind fear, forming an invisible yet impenetrable wall that paralyzes you from moving forward. So, have you ever wondered why fear is not what's holding you back? When those wall feels high, your first instinct might be to bulldoze through with brute force. Push harder. Hustle nonstop. Throw all your energy at the problem until something breaks. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the . But here’s where most...

3946 Find Peace in the Midst of Troubles
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Troubles come to all of us—and how we handle them defines our peace and effectiveness. Sarah Young’s insight from Jesus Calling drives this home: "Rehearsing your troubles results in experiencing them many times, whereas you are meant to go through them only when they actually occur." You can find peace in the midst of troubles. This truth challenges a common tendency—to ruminate on problems long before (or after) they happen, replaying them in our minds like a broken record. Instead, God calls us to a different way of handling struggle, a way rooted in trust, courage, and rest....

3945 The Heartbeat of a Powerhouse Marriage
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Marriage isn’t about becoming one person. It’s about two whole individuals choosing to grow together in a way that creates something far stronger than the sum of its parts. But the reality? That kind of connection doesn’t come easy. It takes diligent, ongoing effort for each spouse to develop themselves as confident individuals, and then to intentionally build a relationship that thrives on shared purpose and deep connection. That's the heartbeat of a powerhouse marriage. Consider Dan and Joanne Miller. Dan Miller, the New York Times Best-Selling author who passed two years ago, left a...

3944 Love Them More Than It Hurts
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Why do our children challenge us so much that it strangles our hearts? Raising kids is tough on parents; who cares about how the kids feel? Yet we deeply care about them. However, it's during those difficult times that we learn to love them more than it hurts. Raising kids is brutal sometimes. On the surface, it might seem like parents should just lay down the rules, set boundaries, and move on. But if it were that simple, parenting wouldn’t tear us up so deeply.

Imagine this for a moment: You’re gearing up for the Super Bowl of your life. Every move calculated, every drill intentional, every moment optimized.

3941 Organize Your Space to Make Room for Action
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Nothing fuels ambition quite like setting out on a bold adventure toward your goals and dreams. You’ve got big plans, and the vision of where you want to go is crystal clear. But here’s the truth: dreaming alone won’t get you there. To climb that peak, you need a launching pad — and that starts when you organize your space to make room for action. Think about it. If all you ever did was sit back, waiting for success or opportunity to arrive without effort, how far would you get? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

It’s because your power lies in what you decide to hold on to. What you bring with you shapes not just your next step, but your entire path ahead.
"One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo
The Apostle Paul knew the weight of what to leave behind and what to carry on. He said it plainly in Philippians 3:13-14:
13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."
Paul teaches us that progress depends on consciously shedding the dead weight of the past and intentionally moving toward what lies ahead, what's right in front of you.
Too often, we get stuck swirling in the rut of “what went wrong”—a relentless replay of failures and disappointments.
But the trouble is that the longer you linger there, the more you settle in the trenches. You let your past become your prison.
And where is the freedom in that? Freedom starts by choosing what you carry forward.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Choose what you carry forward!
Think about a forest — a living, growing forest. The seeds it carries forward are the future trees, the promise of fresh green under sunlit skies. Your life is no different. The seeds you plant today, the lessons you hold close, the hopes you refuse to bury — those are the things that grow into your “now.” Create your now! Because it all begins by what you decide to carry forward.
Jesus reminds us in Matthew 6:34:
"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."
Here’s a clear call to live focused on today, not trapped by yesterday’s shadows or tomorrow’s anxieties.
Carry forward your courage, your hard-won wisdom, your capacity to forgive—and most importantly, your choice to keep moving. Carry forward your resiliency, the smile that comes after storms, and the faith that better days are yours to claim.
In the end, life’s trenches are real, but they are not permanent. The difference between sinking and standing is your choice to carry forward what fuels growth, healing, and purpose.
So—what will you choose to carry forward?
You got this, because God's got you!
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
