Tribe Beloved: Love Notes

42. Why Life Feels Different in a New Season (Especially for Women Who Do It All)

Thu, 07 May 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Have you ever stepped into a new season of life and found yourself wondering… why does this feel heavier than I expected?

In this episode, Cortney shares a personal story about transitioning into a new role and realizing—years later—just how much that shift impacted her, without her fully naming it at the time.

Because when your life changes, it’s not that you stop being who you are…

it’s that you don’t always know how you fit into this new season yet.

This is a compassionate invitation to notice what’s already there—how you’re already showing up in ways that feel like you—and begin to see how your God-given design still fits, even if it looks different now.

If you’ve been feeling a little off, unseen, or unsure of where you fit… this one is for you.

And… If you’re in that space of “I don’t know how I fit here anymore,” that’s exactly what we sort through in the God-Given Gifts Chat. We take what feels unclear and help you see how you already show up—so you can live it more fully in this season. https://coffeechatsandyogamats.com/giftchat

Let’s live loved—and be love.

Mini 04:When Capacity Is Low & the “Shoulds” Are Loud

Thu, 30 Apr 2026 15:00:00 GMT

In this mini episode, I’m sharing from a very real, very present place—what it looks like to navigate a low capacity season without turning on yourself.

Because if you’re anything like me, this is where the “shoulds” get loud…

“I should be doing more.”

“I’m not doing enough.”

“I’m doing too much of the wrong things.”

It’s exhausting.

Whether you’re walking through illness, caregiving, a full family season, or just a lot of life at once—you’re not alone in this tension.

In this episode, I’m sharing a few gentle, grounding practices that have been helping me come back to reality, clarity, and truth:

✨ Naming your reality (instead of pushing past it)

✨ Clarifying what actually matters in this season

✨ Re-anchoring in truth and partnering with God in the middle of it

✨ Releasing “shoulds” that come from trying to live like someone else

This isn’t about doing it perfectly.

It’s about meeting yourself where you actually are—and finding grace there.

If you’re in a low (or just very full) capacity season, my hope is that you leave this episode with a little more clarity, a little less pressure, and permission to move forward in a way that actually fits your life.

41. 3 Signs Something Feels Off (And It Might Not Be What You Think)

Thu, 23 Apr 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Have you ever had that quiet feeling like… something’s off—but you can’t quite explain why?

In this episode, we’re unpacking three subtle signs that something might be out of alignment in your life—not in a dramatic, everything-is-wrong kind of way, but in the small, easy-to-miss ways that often get overlooked.

From not being able to name what’s wrong… to things feeling heavier than they should… to inspiration quietly turning into pressure—this is a gentle invitation to get curious instead of critical.

Because sometimes the problem isn’t you.

If you’ve been feeling that low-level tension or questioning yourself more than usual, this episode will help you pause, notice, and begin to understand what might actually be going on.

💬Reflection question:

Which of these stood out to you most?

I can’t quite name what feels off
Things feel heavier than I expect them to
I’ve been turning what I see around me into pressure

Just notice — no need to fix anything yet.

If this resonated and you’re realizing, “I don’t actually know what fits me” or “I don’t know how I’m wired,” that’s exactly what the God-Given Gifts Chat is for.

This is a simple, one-on-one conversation where we help you sort through what you’re already noticing and begin to put language to it.

40. What Actually Changes When a Woman Starts Using Her Gifts

Thu, 16 Apr 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Have you ever wondered what’s actually supposed to change when you start using your God-given gifts?

Because it’s easy to hear “use your gifts” or “walk in your purpose”… but what does that really look like in everyday life?

In this episode, we’re talking about the real shifts that happen—not the dramatic, overnight transformation you might expect, but the quieter, deeper changes that truly matter.

From things feeling lighter… to clearer decisions… to learning how to trust yourself in a grounded, steady way—this is what it actually looks like to begin living in alignment with how God designed you.

If you’ve been using your gifts (or want to), but you’re unsure if anything is really changing… this episode will help you see what to look for.

And… If you’re in that space of “I’m starting to see it, but I don’t know how to actually live it out,” the God-Given Gifts Chat is where we take those small shifts and turn them into something practical and life-giving in your real, current season.

39. Why Knowing Your Gifts Doesn’t Automatically Change Your Life

Thu, 09 Apr 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Have you ever had a moment where you finally understand yourself better… but nothing in your life actually changes?

In this episode, we’re talking about the gap between knowing your God-given gifts and actually living them out. Because awareness is powerful—but it doesn’t automatically create new rhythms.

Using a simple (and sweet) Daniel Tiger moment, we explore why insight alone isn’t enough—and how you can begin to take small, life-giving steps toward using your gifts in your real, everyday life.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the “I know this… but I’m not doing it” space, this one is for you.

We’ll talk about:

why your gifts might be easier to overlook than you think
how to start using them without overhauling your life
and what it looks like to move from understanding → integration

If you’re realizing you don’t fully know your gifts—or you’re not sure how to use them—my God-Given Gifts Chat is a simple, supportive place to start. You can sign up here:

💛https://coffeechatsandyogamats.com/giftchat

Let this be your nudge:

You don’t need to have it all figured out. Just take the next right step.

38. When Understanding Your Wiring Becomes Second Nature

Thu, 02 Apr 2026 15:00:00 GMT

What if the goal of understanding your personality isn’t to endlessly analyze yourself… but to understand your design well enough that it simply becomes part of the way you live?

In this wrap-up episode of the temperament series, we’re talking about what integration actually looks like.

❎ Not constant self-analysis.

❎ Not obsessing over your strengths.

❎ Not trying to optimize yourself all day long.

But becoming so aware of how God wired you that it starts shaping your rhythms, your choices, your relationships, and your filters in a natural, life-giving way.

In this episode, I share:

• Why understanding your wiring should eventually feel less like analysis and more like instinct

• A personal example of how this has shown up in my own life

• The story of a Beloved who moved from scattered and overextended to more settled and steady

• How self-understanding can help you make clearer decisions about your time, energy, and responsibilities

• Why the goal isn’t to think about your wiring forever — but to understand it well enough that you can stop thinking about it

If this temperament series has helped you see yourself differently, I hope this episode helps you take the next step: integration.

You don’t have to figure yourself out all alone.

A God-Given Gifts Chat is a simple Voxer-based conversation where we explore your wiring, your current season, and one aligned next step you can actually carry into daily life.

❎ No pressure.

❎ No huge life overhaul.

❎ Just insight you can use.

👉 https://coffeechatsandyogamats.com/giftchat

💭Reflection to carry with you:

Where has greater self-understanding already started changing the way you move through everyday life?

37. The Artisan - When your enthusiasm feels misunderstood

Thu, 26 Mar 2026 15:00:00 GMT

If you’ve ever been told you’re “too much,” too impulsive, too scattered, or too spontaneous — this episode is for you.

Today we’re exploring the Sensing-Perceiving (SP) temperament, also known as the Artisan.

Artisan women are:

• Spontaneous

• Action-oriented

• Playful and bold

• Highly adaptable

• Present and responsive

• Creative and resourceful

You don’t just live in the moment — you respond to it.

Your enthusiasm is not immaturity.

Your love for novelty is not irresponsibility.

Your spark is not random.

It reflects something true about God.

God creates.

God delights.

God celebrates.

In this episode, we explore:

• The strengths of the Artisan temperament

• The shadow side of impulsivity and chasing stimulation

• The difference between performing for applause and expressing from identity

• Why your enthusiasm needs direction — not dimming

• How to anchor your spontaneity in Christ without losing your spark

I also share a personal story about my grandmother and how I realized I had misunderstood her wiring for years — and how much beauty I was missing by mislabeling it.

Reflection Question:

💭 Where have you been dimming your enthusiasm because you feared being misunderstood?

If you’re ready to channel your spark intentionally instead of apologizing for it, you can book a free God-Given Gift Chat. We’ll explore your wiring and one aligned next move that brings momentum without chaos.

36. The Guardian - If you’re tired of holding everything together

Thu, 19 Mar 2026 15:00:00 GMT

If you’re a responsible, steady, dependable Christian woman who feels like you have to hold everything together, this episode is for you.

Today we’re exploring the Guardian (Sensing-Judging / SJ) personality type — a temperament known for faithfulness, structure, reliability, and deep care for responsibility.

We’ll talk about the strengths of the Guardian woman, the shadow side of overfunctioning and burnout, and how your steadiness reflects God’s faithfulness without becoming a burden you carry alone.

In this episode, we explore:

• How over-responsibility quietly turns into exhaustion

• Why resentment is often a sign something needs to be shared, not shouldered

• The difference between faithfulness and over-functioning

• How internalized scripts (integrity = finishing, responsibility = saying yes) create pressure

• What it looks like to reclaim your strengths without being ruled by them

I also share the story of a Guardian woman I’ve coached — a capable, high-energy wife and mom who slowly realized her stress wasn’t coming from her circumstances… but from the internal pressure she was placing on herself.

Her shift?

From strength-as-duty → strength-as-choice.

From silent contract → conscious offering.

From perfectionism → self-trust.

If you’ve ever quietly believed, “If I don’t do it, everything will fall apart,” this conversation will feel both steady and freeing.

Reflection Question:

💭 Where are you carrying something you were never meant to carry alone?

If you’re ready for support, you can book a free God-Given Gift Chat. We’ll gently sort through your current season, what’s yours to steward, what might need to be shared, and one grounded next step that supports you instead of drains you.

35. The Rational - If you’ve ever been called “too logical”

Thu, 12 Mar 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Have you ever been described as “too logical,” “too blunt,” or “too intense”?

If you’re the one who sees the solution before others even identify the problem…

If your brain instinctively builds systems and strategies…

If clarity feels like love to you…

This episode is for you.

Today we’re exploring the NT (Rational) temperament — and why your strategic mind is not a flaw, but a reflection of God’s order, wisdom, and creativity.

In This Episode:

The strengths of the Rational temperament
The common shadow patterns (self-criticism, over-responsibility, emotional bypassing)
Why living only in your head creates quiet disconnection
What it means to integrate strategy + soul
4 practical ways to thrive as an NT

Reflection Question:

💭 Where have you mistaken your brilliance for a burden?

Ready for Clarity?

If this episode felt precise — like it named something you’ve sensed but never articulated — that’s worth responding to.

Rational women often assume they should figure everything out alone. But clarity grows in conversation.

In a God-Given Gifts Chat, we’ll explore:

What’s actually happening in your season
One gift I hear in you
One aligned next step

34. The Idealist: when your heart feels like too much

Thu, 05 Mar 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Are you an Idealist (NF personality type) who feels deeply, sees meaning everywhere, and sometimes wonders if you’re just… too much?

In this episode of Tribe Beloved: Love Notes, we explore the Idealist temperament (also known as the NF in MBTI and Keirsey personality frameworks) through a Christian lens — and why your sensitivity may actually be one of your greatest God-given gifts.

If you’ve ever been told you’re “too emotional,” “too idealistic,” or “too sensitive,” this conversation will feel like relief.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What defines the Idealist (NF) temperament

• The strengths of empathy, vision, authenticity, and discernment

• The shadow side of emotional burnout and self-erasure

• Why shrinking to keep the peace slowly disconnects you from yourself

• Four practical ways Idealists can thrive

• How understanding your personality through faith brings clarity — not labels

I also share a personal story from my own journey as an Idealist and how learning my wiring helped me stop second-guessing myself and start filtering opportunities with confidence.

Understanding your temperament isn’t about boxing yourself in.

It’s about language.

Relief.

And partnering with God in how He intentionally designed you.

Reflection Questions:

💭 Where have you been trying to force yourself into something that doesn’t actually light you up?

💭 And what part of your authenticity have you been shrinking or apologizing for?

33. Why You Keep Fighting Yourself (And What Your Temperament Has to Do With It)

Thu, 26 Feb 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Have you ever felt like your personality was something to manage… tone down… or fix?

Maybe you’ve called yourself “too sensitive.”

Or wished you were more decisive.

Or wondered why certain environments energize you while others drain you.

What if you’re not broken?

In this episode of Tribe Beloved: Love Notes, we explore the four temperaments and how your unique personality design reflects something true about God’s character.

In This Episode, We Explore:

Why you may feel like you’re constantly fighting yourself
How temperament affects communication, decision-making, and relationships
The four temperaments: Idealist, Rational, Guardian, and Artisan
How MBTI and temperament theory can support Christian self-understanding
The difference between identity (who defines you) and design (how God wired you)
Why self-awareness reduces friction and increases freedom

Your temperament doesn’t define you — God does.

But it does describe the pattern of how He designed you.

And when you don’t understand that design, you tend to resist it. Compare. Overcorrect. Shrink.

That’s not freedom.

That’s friction.

Understanding your temperament isn’t about boxing yourself in. It’s about partnering with God instead of fighting the way He wired you.

A Question to Sit With

💭 Which parts of your personality have you treated like flaws — and what might shift if you saw them as intentional design?

Pay attention to what brings relief. Relief is often a clue.

Ready to Go Deeper?

If this episode stirred something in you — if you’re tired of second-guessing how you’re wired — I offer complimentary God-Given Gifts Chats.

It’s a focused 1–2 day Voxer conversation (voice + text, woven into your real life). Together, we’ll name one gift and one aligned next step.

Not your whole five-year plan.

Just one faithful move forward.

You can book yours at: https://coffeechatsandyogamats.com/giftchat

You are here on purpose.

You are wired with purpose.

And your temperament reflects something true about God.

As always — live loved and be love.

32. When Something Moves You… But Nothing Changes

Thu, 19 Feb 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Have you ever had a moment that deeply moved you — a conversation, a message, a realization — only to look back weeks later and realize… nothing actually changed?

In this episode, Cortney reflects on a pattern she sees often: thoughtful, faithful women staying in reflection mode without moving into action. Not because they’re resistant or disobedient — but because insight doesn’t always come with a clear next step.

Using a real-life moment from a recent God-Given Gifts Chat Circle (and a painfully relatable “inbox graveyard” example), Cortney explores why reflection alone isn’t the full journey — and how small, intentional steps can help bridge the gap between insight and real-life change.

This episode is a gentle nudge — not guilt, not shame — just an honest invitation to choose a next step with clarity and compassion.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode

Why reflection is necessary — but not sufficient — for growth
How “waiting on God” can sometimes mask uncertainty about next steps
The cost of insight without integration (and why it’s not a character flaw)
A simple decision framework: Yes / No / Not Yet — intentionally
Practical examples of what “making a move” can actually look like
Why community helps turn reflection into action

Key Takeaway

Reflection + doing + reflection + doing.

Growth happens in the rhythm — not the pause.

Gentle Invitation

If you’ve been sitting with insight you’re not sure how to integrate, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Spaces like the God-Given Gifts Chat are designed to help turn clarity into action — one small, faithful step at a time.

31. Why “Having It All Together” Is a Terrible Goal (Especially in Marriage)

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 15:00:00 GMT

What if marriage isn’t meant to feel endlessly hard?

In this voice-memo-style episode of Tribe Beloved: Love Notes, Cortney gently challenges a familiar Christian narrative—that marriage requires constant struggle to be “doing it right.”

Instead, she reflects on ease, personality differences, and the pressure to “have it all together,” sharing how understanding (rather than striving) has shaped her own marriage and relationships.

This episode explores why friction doesn’t always mean failure, how personality awareness softens shame, and why understanding changes how we interpret each other and build a life together.

If you’ve ever wondered whether marriage—or life—has to feel this heavy, this conversation offers a more humane, grace-filled perspective.

30. God Isn’t Confused by How Different We Are

Thu, 05 Feb 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Note: If you listened to the previous message, it was my messy first draft - an uploaded oops! Here's a cleaner, less rambling version ;)

---

So much tension in our relationships comes from assuming there’s a “right” way to think, plan, respond, or do life. In this episode, Cortney explores how difference—when misunderstood—can feel like failure, but when named honestly, becomes an invitation to grace.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

Why we so easily confuse difference with “doing it wrong”
A real-life story of navigating different wiring as a parent
How understanding difference can release shame and frustration
Why unity was never meant to look like sameness
How curiosity can replace judgment in everyday relationships

Rather than offering a framework or fixing strategy, this episode creates space to see yourself—and others—more clearly and compassionately.

Reflection Questions

Where do I feel pressure to do things the “right” way?
Who do I tend to judge (including myself) for being different?
What might someone else be paying attention to that I’m not?

29. If You Feel Like You Should Be Further Along

Thu, 29 Jan 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Have you ever wondered why you’re still praying about the same things years later? In this episode, Cortney reflects on why revisiting familiar struggles isn’t failure—but often a sign of growth. A gentle January reminder that God isn’t finished with you, and becoming is part of the story.

Episode Notes

In this episode, we explore:

Why coming back to the same questions doesn’t mean you’re stuck
How increased awareness and sensitivity can be signs of maturity
The frustration of wanting to be “done” growing—and why that desire is human
How Philippians 1:6 reframes ongoing growth as intentional, not accidental
Why becoming is not a problem to fix, but part of God’s design

Scripture referenced:

Philippians 1:6

28. You’re Not Meant to Disappear in Relationship

Thu, 22 Jan 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Have you ever noticed yourself getting quieter in a relationship — not all at once, just slowly?

In this reflective, voice-memo–style episode, Cortney shares a personal story from the early days of meeting her husband and explores a grounding truth: loving well should not cost you your voice.

This episode isn’t about fixing relationships or prescribing a “right way” to love. It’s about belonging without shrinking, honoring the way God designed you, and remembering that covenant was never meant to erase who you are.

You’ll hear reflections on:

Feeling whole instead of smaller in relationship
God’s design for mutual strengthening, not erasure
The difference between healthy quiet and self-silencing
Why your voice and presence matter to God

Cortney also shares why she created the Marriage Retreat Toolkit — not as a solution, but as a supportive way for couples to slow down, reflect, and dream together.

27. You Don’t Have to Name All Your Gifts to Begin Honoring One

Thu, 15 Jan 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Do you feel pressure to have your gifts, calling, or purpose all figured out by now?

In this episode of Love Notes for Tribe Beloved, Cortney offers a calming reminder: clarity doesn’t usually arrive all at once — and you’re not broken if you’re still discovering yourself. Through reflections on motherhood, faith, and lived experience, she shares how God often reveals our gifts gently, one small piece at a time.

This episode is an exhale for any woman who feels behind, confused, or unsure where to begin.

🪞💭Reflection Questions:

What’s one strength that keeps showing up in your life?
What’s one thing that seems to bring life — even if you don’t know what to call it yet?
What’s one way you already help others, often without realizing it?

26. What If the Thing You’re Trying to Fix Is Actually a Gift?

Thu, 08 Jan 2026 15:00:00 GMT

What if the traits you’ve been trying to fix, manage, or apologize for aren’t flaws at all?

What if they’re evidence of how God designed you — on purpose?

In this episode of Tribe Beloved: Love Notes, Cortney reflects on enthusiasm, warmth, and emotional attentiveness — and how easily those gifts can be misnamed as “too much.” Through personal story, gentle reframing, and Psalm 139, this episode invites you to stop fixing yourself and start understanding how God wired you.

This is a permission-giving conversation for any woman who has ever wondered, “What’s wrong with me?” — and is ready to ask a better question.

🪞💭Reflection Question:

What’s a trait you’ve been managing or apologizing for that you’re starting to wonder might not be something to fix after all?

Mentioned in This Episode:

📖 Psalm 139:14

25. How to choose your word of the year

Thu, 01 Jan 2026 15:00:00 GMT

In this episode, Cortney walks through a grace-filled, descriptive (not prescriptive) way to discern your Word of the Year. Instead of focusing on choosing the “perfect” word, she shares stories from her own life — Words like Intentional, Peace, Dwell in Grace, Choose Courage, Joy & Play, Delight, and Harmony — and how each one shaped her rhythms, decisions, and growth in surprising ways.

You’ll explore:

what a Word of the Year really is (and what it’s not)
how to let your Word emerge from your season
why your Word doesn’t have to last 12 months
how themes, desires, and repeated nudges play a role
the question Cortney asks all her clients: “Who are you becoming?”
simple prompts for choosing a life-giving, God-led Word

If you’re feeling pressure to pick the “right” word, this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air.

Mini 03-You don't know what you don't know

Sun, 28 Dec 2025 15:00:00 GMT

In this short reflection, I share a recent moment of realizing I was making assumptions I didn’t even know I was making — and the humbling reality that sometimes we don’t know the questions we need to ask until we’re already in the thick of things. If you’re in a season where something you expected to be simple suddenly has layers, this one’s for you.

In this episode:

navigating unexpected learning curves
why “you don’t know what you don’t know” is both frustrating and comforting
remembering: this is your first time doing this
God’s presence in the places you didn’t know you needed help

Takeaway:

Learning curves aren’t failures. They’re part of being human — and God meets you right in the middle of them.

23. The Freedom of Being Who God Designed You to Be

Thu, 18 Dec 2025 07:00:00 GMT

In today’s Love Notes episode, Cortney explores the freeing truth that God didn’t make a mistake when He designed you. Your wiring — your personality, quirks, strengths, sensitivities — isn’t a flaw to fix but a lens through which you reflect His creativity.

Through a personal story, coaching insights, and spiritual grounding, you’ll hear why so many women struggle with apologizing for how they’re wired and how understanding your design brings relief, alignment, and deeper partnership with God.

Cortney shares:

why your personality isn’t “too much” or “not enough”
how tools like MBTI and the Keirsey Temperament Sorter can bring clarity (but not identity)
the difference between healthy growth and unhealthy self-contortion
how embracing your design leads to peace, presence, and purpose
a blessing for anyone exhausted from trying to be someone else

If you’ve ever felt behind, “too intense,” “too sensitive,” or just out of place… this one’s for you.

21. The Gentle Way God Leads You Into New Seasons

Thu, 04 Dec 2025 19:00:00 GMT

In this voice-memo-style episode, Cortney unpacks her complicated relationship with the word gentle—and why the biblical definition feels nothing like the pastel, spa-vibe image she tends to resist.

Plus, a gentle invitation into January’s God-Given Gifts Chat Circle.

Why the word “gentle” used to make Cortney cringe
The difference between cultural gentleness and biblical gentleness
How God nudges us into new seasons (instead of shoving us into them)

How to hold ideas without acting on them right away
A picture of God’s tender, patient leadership
A gentle next step for exploring your season and gifts

18. From Overwhelm to Ownership

Thu, 20 Nov 2025 14:01:19 GMT

Have you ever had a moment when you were so in the flow that you thought, “I was made for this”? In this episode, Cortney invites you to remember those golden moments — the times when you felt aligned, present, and fully yourself — and explore what they reveal about how God designed you.

Learn how to use those memories as a map to move from overwhelm to ownership, so you can live and lead from peace instead of pressure.

In this episode of Love Notes for Tribe Beloved, Cortney helps you reflect on your “flow moments” as clues to your God-given design. Through practical coaching questions and gentle faith-based reflection, she’ll show you how to:

Identify what alignment feels like for you — and why it matters.
Use your “golden moments” as guideposts when life feels heavy.
Recognize the difference between doing everything and doing what’s yours to carry.
Realign with the “unforced rhythms of grace” Jesus invites us into (Matthew 11:28–30).

You’ll walk away with simple, doable steps to own your energy, reconnect with joy, and live like the beloved woman God made you to be.

Reflection Prompt:

17. Beloved, You’re Not Behind

Thu, 13 Nov 2025 18:55:50 GMT

Ever feel like you should be further along by now—in your faith, your calling, or just life in general? This honest, heart-to-heart conversation is your reminder that God’s timeline for you is never late. Cortney shares stories from her own seasons of waiting, encouragement from Ephesians 2:10, and coaching questions to help you trade striving for stewardship and grace. You’re not behind—you’re becoming.

Reflection Questions:

What’s God growing in me now that future-me will thank Him for?
Where might I be called to tend rather than chase?
What if I truly believed that my calling isn’t waiting somewhere in the distance, but being lived out right here, today?

Mentioned in this episode:

Ephesians 2:10 — “For we are God’s workmanship…”
The word workmanship in Ephesians 2:10 comes from the Greek poiēma—the same root as poem.
The focus: “You’re not behind; you’re becoming.”
The idea that every season has an assignment: the slow teaches surrender, the full teaches capacity, and the in-between teaches faith.

15. Beyond Paul’s List: Discovering the Gifts the He Didn’t Name

Mon, 22 Sep 2025 18:59:30 GMT

Ever taken a spiritual gifts quiz and thought… “That’s it?” Maybe the options didn’t fit. Maybe your results felt flat. Maybe the quiz just didn’t see the way you love and lead in real life.

You’re not alone.

In this episode, Cortney explores what Scripture really says about gifting—and how God’s creativity goes far beyond Paul’s lists in Romans or 1 Corinthians.

🎧 What you’ll hear:

Why Paul’s spiritual gift lists were never meant to be complete
Examples of biblical gifts that don’t fit our modern categories
Modern-day gifts (yes, yours!) that matter deeply to God

✨ Gentle Gospel-Grounded Coaching: From artistry to orientation, nutrition to noticing—God plants gifts far beyond a multiple-choice form. Don’t limit your calling to someone else’s categories. Your design is intentional.

👉 Reflection Prompt: Where do you see God’s fingerprints in your everyday? What gift are you beginning to see in a new light?

📬 Email Cortney at cortney(at)coffeechatsandyogamats.com to share your story—or just say, “I think I found one.”

14. You Took the Quiz — Now What? Turning Personality Insights into Daily Life

Mon, 22 Sep 2025 18:56:43 GMT

You took the personality quiz. Maybe even highlighted a few lines that felt spot-on. But now that “aha” moment is buried in your inbox—or shoved in a drawer. So… now what?

In this episode, Cortney Loui shares why personality insights are just the start—and how they become transformation when you build them into your actual hours.

🎧 What you’ll hear:

The simple shift that turns self-awareness into sustainable rhythms
Four practical “on-ramps” to apply what you’ve learned about yourself
How honoring your wiring is actually faithful stewardship

✨ Gentle Gospel-Grounded Coaching: 1 Peter 4:10 reminds us to “use whatever gift you have received to serve others.” That includes your natural rhythms, energy patterns, and preferred ways of operating. Stewarding your wiring is not selfish—it’s part of your calling.

👉 Reflection Prompt: What’s one insight from your personality results that you’re ready to put into practice this week?

📬 Email Cortney at cortney(at)coffeechatsandyogamats.com to share your one thing (and get a little encouragement back).

13. Isn’t That Just a Personality Quiz Thing?

Mon, 22 Sep 2025 18:51:49 GMT

Ever share something you’ve learned from a personality tool—only to get a polite smile or an eye-roll? In this episode Cortney Loui shares why personality assessments aren’t just a quiz thing, but a way to notice and name the gifts God has already placed in you.

Full Show Notes

Have you ever shared a personality insight that lit you up—only to hear, “Isn’t that just a quiz thing?”

If so, you know the sting of loving something others don’t quite understand.

In this episode, Cortney Loui (Christian life coach, speaker, and stay-at-home mom) explains why personality tools are more than entertainment. Drawing on Romans 12:6 and 1 Peter 4:10, she shows how assessments act like maps, not boxes, helping you spot and steward the unique gifts God has given you.

Along the way, Cortney reminds you that it’s not your job to convince anyone of the value of these tools. Run your race. Put into practice what you’ve learned. Their dismissal doesn’t diminish your worth—or the gifts God planted in you. And who knows? Your quiet glow-up might be what sparks their curiosity one day.

Listen in to discover:

Why personality assessments are maps, not verdicts
How these tools help you name and nurture your God-given gifts
A gentle reminder that you don’t have to convince skeptics—living your design speaks louder than words

👉 Reflection Question: Who in your life doesn’t quite “get” your love of personality tools, and how have you explained the real value to them? Share your story with Cortney at cortney@coffeechatsandyogamats.com (remember—no “u” in Cortney!).

12. You're not too much, you're not behind.

Mon, 22 Sep 2025 18:49:28 GMT

What if the things you think are flaws… are actually the way God wired you on purpose?

Ever feel like your brain isn’t working the way it should? Or that if you could just “get it together,” you’d finally catch up?

In this episode, Cortney shares what it looks like to honor your wiring—especially during chaotic, unpredictable seasons. Whether you're a dreamer with a foggy brain, a planner in a life with no margin, or just someone trying to figure out what’s next, you’ll hear encouragement to embrace your God-given wiring… not battle against it.

🎧 In this episode:

Why your desire for clarity and structure isn’t a flaw
A few practical rhythms Cortney’s using to support her own wiring
A gentle reminder: You’re not behind. You’re human.
A simple invitation to name what’s been on your heart

👉 Reflection Prompt: What’s one area where you’ve been judging yourself for how you’re wired? What would shift if you saw that trait as a gift—not a flaw?

11. What If It’s Not Selfish to Enjoy How God Made You?

Mon, 22 Sep 2025 18:39:54 GMT

What if it’s not selfish to enjoy how God made you? In this episode, Cortney shares why delighting in your wiring isn’t pride — it’s worship. You’ll hear a story about a little boy and his gift, a reminder that God is the ultimate gift giver, and one powerful reflection question: How old were you when someone first told you that what you were wasn’t enough?

10. “I Thought I Was Just Sensitive”

Mon, 22 Sep 2025 18:38:37 GMT

Ever been told you were “too sensitive”? Or “too much”? You’re not alone.

In this episode, Cortney shares how traits like empathy, emotional attunement, and creating safe spaces aren’t liabilities—they’re strengths. You’ll hear how God wires us differently, how Feeling and Thinking gifts work together, and why your sensitivity might just be one of your God-given superpowers.

🎧 In this episode:

The story of a friend who reframed “too sensitive” as “deeply gifted”
How practical gifts often get praised while emotional gifts get overlooked
A fresh look at Feeling vs. Thinking in decision-making

9. “I don’t know what my gifts are.”

Mon, 22 Sep 2025 18:37:03 GMT

What if your gifts are already there—just buried under second-guessing, life’s demands, or old messages that told you to tone it down?

In this episode, Cortney shares why “I don’t know what my gifts are” isn’t the end of the story—it’s often the beginning. You’ll hear a powerful reframe, discover three reasons your gifts may feel hidden, and leave with one gentle next step to uncover what God’s already planted in you.

Ever feel like you’re hustling through life on autopilot—checking boxes, meeting expectations, and ending your day with nothing left in the tank?

Let’s pause and reset. 💛

In this episode, Cortney Loui shares a fist-pumping, soul-soothing reminder from Romans 8 that will help you shake off “not-enoughism” and re-center on your God-given identity.

The big lie behind feeling like you have to "earn" your worth
A Spirit-filled truth to speak over your inner critic

4. Beloved, you are not a failure. Let’s rewrite this story.✍🏻

Thu, 01 May 2025 16:29:15 GMT

If you've ever felt "too much" or "not enough"—too sensitive, too quiet, too loud, too tender-hearted, too driven—this love note is for you.

You are not a disappointment. You are not broken. And the gifts God placed in you? They are not a mistake.

In this episode, Cortney invites you to tear up the labels that have held you back and embrace the truth:

🖌️ You are God's masterpiece.

🕊️ You were designed with intention.

🌿 Your gifts are part of His beautiful plan.

This isn’t about self-help hype. It’s about re-grounding your identity in what God has already said is true about you.

6. Why Am I Like This? 😖 (And How to Ask a Better Question)

Thu, 24 Apr 2025 16:15:41 GMT

How many times have you asked yourself, “Why am I like this?”—especially after a tough conversation, a moment of indecision, or one of those “what was I thinking?” spirals?

In this love note, Cortney gently reframes that question into something better, kinder, and actually useful:

“What went wrong here—and what can I do about it now?”

You’ll explore:

Why “Why am I like this?” is a loaded baked potato 🥔 of a question
How grace + growth can happen when we get curious instead of critical
A simple 5-step reflection to help you move forward with clarity and kindness
