4054 When No One Knows
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
I don’t know what this season has been like for you, but sometimes life just feels heavy. You’re doing your best to keep going, but eventually you look up and think…"What now? What next? I can’t handle one more thing." How are you getting through the day when no one knows? The apostle Paul knew that feeling when he wrote, “We were crushed and overwhelmed beyond our ability to endure” (2 Corinthians 1:8 NLT).

4053 Don't Shrink Back!

4052 Run the Race Meant for You
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
It’s human nature to look around and see what everyone else is doing—who’s winning, who’s falling behind. Social media makes it even harder; we see highlight reels of success, hustle, and overnight wins. But your dreams and goals are not finished by someone else’s actions or accomplishments. They're only fulfilled by your moves, your focus, and your relentless commitment to run the race meant for you. Because if I were a betting girl, which I'm not, my bet would be that you already tried running someone else's race. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded...

4051 Is God Mad At You?
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
What do you do when everything feels heavy, and you seem to be lost? Maybe for you, it's that feeling of the disappointments stacking up, the dreams that seem to slip through your fingers, the isolation pressing in like a weight you can’t shake. If you’re like me in this season, it’s easy to wonder if God has forgotten you. Or worse, is God mad at you? And then I read Zephaniah 3:17: “The Lord your God is in your midst; he is a warrior who can deliver. He takes great delight in you; he renews you by his love; he shouts for joy over you.” Desire to be supported and encouraged by other...

4050 I Do, But Not Today
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
There’s a raw, undeniable magic in the early days of love. When two people are madly in love, everything seems bright, shiny, and flawless—or at least, as close to flawless as humanly possible. Each partner carries a pair of rose-colored glasses that mask faults, differences, and even potential deal-breakers. The world is new, and so is each other. It’s the honeymoon of life. But time is relentless. Years press forward, and those blazing mornings turn into years that roll into decades where life happens. No wonder your attitude is "I do, but not today." Life doesn’t pause or hit reset....

4049 Just In Case You Missed It
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Why let life get so unruly, especially when it comes to your family? Busyness does not need to be a convenient excuse to soften the blow of your absence when you tell your kids that you cannot be there for them. Don't be that kind of parent. Hang on with your presence just in case you missed it. Because you can’t be everywhere all the time. Trying to be a superhero with endless energy leads straight to burnout—and that’s no life, no legacy. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the . Instead, be strategic about your presence. Because when...

4048 Pick Up Where You Left Off
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Lately, have you been able to get everything you wanted done? Most of us start out with solid plans, clear goals, and a to-do list that feels doable. Then life happens—the phone rings, emails flood in, emergencies pop up—and suddenly you’re forced to pivot mid-stream. What you wanted to finish today now sits on the back burner, perhaps forgotten or frustratingly out of reach. But have no fear, pick up where you left off. Because you know all too well that it’s crushing to feel like you’re doing everything for everyone else while your own priorities slip away. Maybe you promised...

4047 Guard Your Bandwidth
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Have you ever stopped to consider how far your energy and impact actually stretch throughout your life? Most of us live fragmented days—snatching moments here and there, giving bits of ourselves without a clear sense of the whole. Yet, the result is that we end up drained, stretched too thin, and ineffective where it matters most. Guard your bandwidth. If you’re not intentional about guarding your bandwidth, you’ll find yourself giving away more than you actually have to offer. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

4046 Knock It Out!
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Why does life have to be SO hard? That question echoes in the minds of many—sometimes whispered in quiet moments, sometimes shouted in frustration. The weight of struggle can feel endless, like a storm that never passes. And yes, you can live with that feeling for as long as you want. But if you're okay with knowing that's just how it is, then you can pull yourself up by your britches and knock it out! Knock out the resistance, the self-doubt, the excuses. Knock it out like none other. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the . Because sitting too...

4045 Are You Wasting Time or Using It Wisely?
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Time is the one resource we all share equally, yet it feels like some people stretch it farther than others. Ever notice how a quick bathroom break or phone call somehow swallows thirty minutes before you know it? That’s the sneaky nature of time—it flies, and once it's gone, you can't get it back. So, are you wasting time or using it wisely? As we get older, there’s this illusion that we’re just as capable, if not more, than when we were young. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the . But believe it or not, time seems to speed up while we...

And how far did you get?
Did you win the race? Did you accomplish what you set out to do?
Often, we fall into what seems like the easy way to accomplish our goals. Who wants to take the long way around when there's a faster route?
Imagine what would happen if you stopped constantly comparing and instead got ahead by running your race—the one that fits your unique strengths, values, and priorities.
The K.I.S.S. ~Run the R.A.C.E. meant for you!
That’s where the R.A.C.E. method comes in. It lays out a clear path to owning your journey without distractions or detours.
R — Recognize Your Unique Starting Point
You’re not starting from zero, and you’re not supposed to run the same course as someone else. Recognize where you are right now—your skills, your setbacks, your resources. Own your story and understand your starting line. This isn’t about envy or regret. It’s about honest assessment so that you can plan a realistic route forward.
A — Align Your Goals With Your Values
The race you’re in must resonate with what truly matters to you—not what impresses others. What’s the point of chasing money, status, or approval if it drains your energy or clashes with who you really are? Take time to clarify your core values and set goals that reflect them. When your inner compass guides you, you’ll run with more passion and less distraction.
C — Cut Out Comparison and Distraction
Comparison is a productivity killer disguised as inspiration. Watching others run their race only pulls your focus off your own path. Cut the noise—limit time on social media, unsubscribe from content that triggers doubt, and stop measuring your progress with someone else’s yardstick. Instead, turn your eyes forward and measure your growth by your own milestones.
E — Execute Relentlessly With Patience
Running your race means consistent, focused action—even when progress feels slow or invisible. The temptation to sprint ahead with shortcuts or to bail at the first sign of struggle is real. But success comes from steady execution mixed with patience. Build habits that propel you forward every single day and trust that mileage builds momentum.
The bottom line: Your race isn’t about keeping pace with others. It’s about setting your own stride, sticking to your course, and pushing through doubt and distraction.
