4092 Marriage is the Ultimate Stanley Cup
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Marriage is the ultimate Stanley Cup—a hard-fought victory that only comes to those willing to play the toughest game of their lives. It’s not just about feeling in love; it’s about showing up day after day, battling through unexpected setbacks, and trusting your teammate when the pressure’s crushing. Like a hockey team on the ice chasing the biggest prize in sports, couples who win this game know that every pass, every hit, and every moment of grit counts toward the ultimate goal: a marriage that lasts. Think about a hockey team chasing the Stanley Cup. They’re not just skating...

4091 Trust the Nudge
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
As parents, we gather countless observations about our children over time. We watch them grow, stumble, laugh, and learn. We see patterns in their behavior and glimpses of who they truly are beneath the surface. When you’re deep in the trenches of raising a child, you get to know them inside and out. And sometimes, you just feel it—something feels a little off. That gut feeling or inner whisper, trust the nudge. It’s that quiet but insistent voice inside a mama (or dad) that says, “Pay attention.” Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the . ...

4090 Be Original
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
In a world flooded with imitation, where everyone seems eager to copy the latest trend, personality, or success formula, standing firmly in your own skin is a radical act. Too often, the temptation to be someone else—or even just a version of someone else—whispers that life will be easier, better, or more exciting if we can just fit a mold closer to what’s popular or profitable. But the greatest power you hold is being unapologetically yourself. Be original. Why chase shadows when you were made to shine in your own light?

4089 Let the Truth be Told
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Digging deep into who you truly are—and who you’re meant to be—isn’t a simple journey. It’s uncomfortable, often messy, and demands a level of honesty most of us aren’t trained to give ourselves. Let the truth be told. Why bother? Because if you want to be stretched and shaped God’s way, surface-level honesty won’t cut it. You gotta be willing to stare down your real self: your fears, your failures, your longings. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the .

4088 Last Chance!
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
How many times have you scrolled through your inbox only to be hit with another email screaming “Last Chance!”? Another flash sale, another expiring offer, another time-sensitive invitation to act now before it’s gone. It’s a tactic as old as marketing itself—create urgency, push for commitment, seal the deal. Yet if you really want something or genuinely need it, why the hesitation? Why drag your feet when the opportunity is right in front of you? Because commitment is uncomfortable.

4087 The Power of 'Might Be'
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Life has a sneaky way of throwing curveballs. Sometimes, it feels like our dreams and our lives are at odds, each stealing time and energy from the other. You wake up one day, tired and discouraged because what you aimed for yesterday didn’t come through today—or maybe not last week, last month, or even last year. But what if the power of 'might be' keeps you going even if it took 15 years to reach the pinnacle of what you’re made for? You’re not alone if that sounds daunting. Most people give up somewhere along the way when the “now” doesn’t match the “dream.” Desire to be...

4086 But God...
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Sometimes, the loudest battles we fight are the ones no one else can see—but God. These battles rage in the quiet corners of our hearts and minds, behind the smiles we wear and the strength we show. These are the struggles we try to control, the fears we wrestle with, the outcomes we demand. And in the chaos of it all, we miss the main thing—but God is already in control. Here’s the thing most of us don’t get—we spend all our energy chasing what we want to control Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the .

4085 Find Freedom in Your Confession
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Most people hear the word “confession” and instantly think of shame, guilt, or secrets left buried. And when it comes to marriage, it’s easy to assume confessions only mean admitting mistakes or airing dirty laundry. But what if confession wasn’t just about revealing the bad or the hidden? What if confession was the key to unlocking freedom, deeper connection, and true intimacy with your spouse? You can find freedom in your confession. Marriage is a daily exercise in being known and accepted. Two people bring their fears, hopes, and imperfections into a shared life. Desire to be...

4084 Stop Waiting for the Applause
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
As parents, there’s an unspoken pressure to be seen as the best—whether it’s the parent with the most achievements, the most thoughtful gestures, or the most engaged family life. But at what cost does this spotlight come? Stop waiting for the applause. The truth is this: your main responsibility as a parent isn’t to rack up compliments or win approval. It’s to raise your children in a way that suits their unique needs, not your image. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the .

4083 Declare Your Worth
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
You know what’s tougher than changing your circumstances? Changing your perspective. But sometimes, that’s exactly what you need. Because while you can’t always control what happens, you always control how you choose to see it; declare your worth. Think about the voice inside your head—the one that runs the nonstop commentary about you, your life, your struggles. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

info_outlineLife rarely flows in a straight line. Sometimes you find yourself pulled in a dozen different directions, tangled in disappointments and setbacks, or simply unsure which step to take next. When that happens, the instinct to quit can be loud and tempting. But instead of throwing in the towel, it’s time to build a bridge.
What does it mean to build a bridge this way in life?
Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the Kairos FREE Online Community. https://createyournow.com
It’s about creating a path forward that connects you from where you are right now to where you want to be next.
This isn’t about slamming the brakes or accepting a dead end.
A bridge symbolizes movement, possibility, and connection. It’s flexible enough to adapt as your journey twists, turns, or veers off course.
When you build a bridge, you acknowledge your current challenges without letting them trap you. You honor what’s happened—failures, lessons, detours—but refuse to be immobilized by them. Instead, you construct a new route that lets you cross over obstacles toward what’s next: your next opportunity, growth, or breakthrough.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Build a bridge!
This mindset is essential because you were made for more than simply surviving tough seasons.
You’re designed to figure out another way to keep going, to absorb setbacks as fuel for learning, and to make smart pivots that sharpen your trajectory.
Your “bridge” might include new skills, a shift in strategy, a fresh mindset, or new relationships aligned with your goals.
When you build a bridge, you embrace the unknown. You won’t always see the entire path ahead—and that’s okay. The key is to lay down sturdy planks of action and belief in your ability to adapt.
Each step forward is a declaration that you won’t settle, that you’re actively creating your own “now” rather than waiting for it to arrive.
So when life scatters your focus or knocks you off course, don’t shut down. Don’t give up.
Be bold enough to build a bridge that connects you to your next step, your next blessings, and your next lessons. That bridge is your tool for resilience and growth. And crossing it—that’s how you claim the best is still waiting on the other side.
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
