We kick off each Pep Talk Wednesday with a thought-provoking question to get you reflecting before we dive in. In this episode, Tyra reminds us that creating a legacy is so much more than leaving behind material things. You'll walk away with insights, motivation, and a challenge to keep you pushing through the week.
Pep Talk Challenge: Reflect on the legacy you want to build in 2025, write down three words that describe how you want to feel about your life by the end of the year, then, outline one action you can take in January to start living in alignment.

Feel like you’re stuck in a waiting game, praying for a sign or the just the “right” moment to act? What if the opportunity you’re waiting for is already here, but doubt is holding you back from stepping into it? Opportunities don’t always arrive with bells and whistles and fear is often the invisible barrier keeping us stuck. True faith is being able to move with trust and intention, let God meet you exactly where you are.
This week’s Affirmation is “I am open to opportunities, even if they don’t look like what I expected.”
3 Biggest Takeaways
Faith Requires Action: Faith isn’t about sitting still and waiting for things to fall into place. It’s about trusting that God has laid the foundation and taking the steps He’s waiting for you to take.
Perfection Isn’t the Goal: Stop waiting for the perfect moment or the perfect version of yourself. Perfection doesn’t exist, but progress does. Move forward with faith and trust that God will meet you where you are.
Discern When to Move vs. Be Still: While some seasons call for stillness, others require you to take action. Pray for clarity and courage to know when it’s your time to step out in faith and get the ball rolling.

In a culture that glorifies the hustle, it's easy to feel like your worth is tied to your productivity. But what if your value was never about how much you achieve? In this Pep Talk Wednesday episode, we’re diving into the power of rest, the importance of prioritizing joy, and redefining success on your own terms. Your worth isn’t something you earn—it’s already yours, baby.
Pep Talk Challenge: Schedule some personal time for intentional rest, reflect on how it feels to step away from productivity, and then write down three ways resting helped you reconnect with yourself or improved your mood.
