  • What If No One’s Coming To Save You?
    2025/11/05

    Send us a text

    What if no one’s coming to save you—and that’s the best news you’ll hear all week? Coach Tara opens the door on a season of living “half moved in” after separation and divorce, revealing how hope tethered to outcomes kept her stuck while hope in God set her free. Through honest mirror work, therapy, and small acts of ownership—like hanging curtains and reclaiming space—she discovers that faith matures when we stop outsourcing our future and start walking with God in the present.

    We explore the quiet roots of stuckness: procrastination masking fear, perfectionism masking control, and people pleasing masking an addiction to approval. Tara names the learned helplessness that convinces us effort doesn’t matter, then offers a better way—reclaiming agency and partnering with God. She shares tender insights from dating again, recognizing uneven healing, and receiving restoration without reconciliation. Along the way, we ask bracing questions about rescue thinking, including a challenge to “occupy until He comes” rather than sitting back for an easy escape.

    Anchored in John 5, the episode reframes healing as participatory: Get up, take up your bed and walk. Grace meets motion. If you’ve been praying without planning, planning without producing, or waiting for closure that may never arrive, this conversation invites you to take the next faithful step. Build the life you’ve prayed for. Choose responsibility over rescue. Let God meet you on the move.

  • When God Says Let Go: Trusting the Pivot Before You See the Path
    2025/10/28

    Send us a text

    What if the unease you feel isn’t failure, but a holy nudge to move? Coach Tara opens a candid, faith-forward conversation about letting go when God signals a new season. We unpack the difference between quitting and obeying, why your peace is a reliable “umpire,” and how to recognize when the grace has lifted from a relationship, job, or strategy that once worked. With warmth and clarity, we name the tension between comfort and calling—and how obedience can outrun understanding without denying your real emotions.

    We walk through five practical signs it’s time to release the old: lifted grace, stalled fruit, lost peace, repeated closed doors, and persistent Holy Spirit nudges that show up in sermons, conversations, and midnight wake-ups. Tara weaves in Abraham’s costly yes in Genesis 22 and shares her own story of closing a beloved salon during chemotherapy, a surrender that opened new doors to writing, coaching, ministry, and unexpected provision. These moments reveal a consistent pattern: God creates opportunities and divine disruptions, but transformation requires our response.

    You’ll hear actionable guidance to stop clinging to outcomes and start following instruction. We revisit Jeremiah 29:11 and Proverbs 3:5–6 to frame plans in the plural and trust that direction comes when we stop leaning on our own understanding. If you’ve been asking for change yet resisting disruption, this is your invitation to reframe your inner language—“I’m not stuck, I’m being stretched”—and take one step forward without seeing the whole staircase. By the end, you’ll have language, signs, and courage to pivot with peace, plus a prayer over your next move.

    If this conversation stirred you, share it with someone who needs a nudge, leave a rating and review, and hit follow so you don’t miss new episodes.

    2025/10/09

    Send us a text

    We explore how rigid plans can make us miss God’s movement and how healing renews the mind. We unpack schemas, especially abandonment, and show how writing—memoir, teaching, and devotional—helps us reclaim our story with spirit-led flexibility.

    • schema vs script explained with simple examples
    • abandonment patterns in relationships, work, and faith
    • renewing the mind with Scripture and flexible faith
    • writing as healing: sensory memoir, self‑help, devotional
    • practical journaling prompts and reflection questions
    • spirit‑led pivots and learning contentment

    And if today’s word blessed you, share it with another sister who needs this reminder

  • Divine Acceleration
    2025/10/02

    Send us a text

    Doors that open before you even press the button. That’s the kind of moment we’re unpacking—how divine acceleration feels in real time, why timing redeems old ideas, and how to carry rapid change without burning out or shrinking back.

    We start with a personal pivot: moving from a thriving salon to a calling as an author, coach, mentor, and minister after a life‑altering diagnosis. That story sets the frame for this season of open doors, where ideas converge, new assignments stack, and opportunities arrive unannounced. We connect those experiences to Amos 9:13—the plowman overtaking the reaper—as a picture of collapsed timelines, then explore what it means when God delivers months’ worth of momentum in a few days. Expect language that’s honest about the speed and clear about the source.

    To keep it grounded, we bring in behavior science. Rapid change, even good change, can trigger the nervous system’s threat response, which is why blessings sometimes feel like alarms. We share simple tools to regulate and receive: prayer that anchors truth, breathwork that calms your body, and journaling that turns swirl into decisions. You’ll hear practical readiness moves, too—how to build a small “open‑door kit,” prepare assets before the invitation lands, and shift your language from “it’s too fast” to “Lord, strengthen me to steward this.” No striving, no hustle‑gloss—just faith, clarity, and smart structure.

    If you’re sensing acceleration—unexpected connections, fresh creativity, assignments that find you—this conversation offers both theology and tactics. You’ll walk away with questions to discern alignment, steps to widen your capacity, and a reminder that your story is someone else’s blueprint. If this resonated, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs courage for their next “open door,” and leave us a review with one takeaway you’re acting on this week.

  • Metamorphosis Moments: When the Conditions Change
    2025/09/16

    Send us a text

    Have you ever felt stuck in a waiting season, wondering why your transformation isn't happening faster? This eye-opening episode explores the profound parallels between a butterfly's metamorphosis and your personal journey of change.

    Through a beautiful story about eight rescued caterpillars, Coach Tara reveals powerful truths about divine timing and the purpose behind life's pauses. Just as butterflies emerge at different times and must wait for their wings to dry before flight, our transformation processes can't be rushed. What appears to be delay is often divine protection until conditions are right for you to soar.

    The episode delves into the fascinating science of neuroplasticity—how your brain literally reorganizes during healing, creating fragile new pathways that need time to strengthen, much like a butterfly's wet wings. Whether you're in the vulnerable caterpillar stage, the hidden chrysalis phase where everything seems to be dissolving, or the frustrating in-between with wings not yet ready for flight, there's purpose in your position.

    Drawing from Ecclesiastes 3:1 and personal insights, Coach Tara offers comfort for those in waiting seasons and hope for those who feel like their breakthrough has died. The most powerful revelation? Sometimes what looks like death is merely waiting for conditions to change. Trust not just the process, but the One who orchestrates the conditions.

    Ready to reframe your waiting season? Listen now and discover why your story—including the pauses—is the blueprint for someone else's breakthrough. Subscribe to never miss a See-Shift weekly episode, and share this message with someone who needs encouragement during their transformation journey.

  • Healing Mirrors: The Queen Within
    2025/07/31

    Send us a text

    What happens when we stop performing "healed" and start embracing the mirror of true healing? In this vulnerable, unscripted conversation with Kim Rodgers Cora, author of "Affirming the Queen Within," we explore how many of us wear masks to survive but miss discovering our authentic selves in the process.

    Kim's journey from a headstrong young woman to a cancer survivor, military wife, and nonprofit founder reveals profound truths about identity and purpose. "The real you was never destroyed—she was disconnected," becomes our rallying cry as we discuss how trauma fragments us, but healing reintroduces us to who God created us to be originally.

    The conversation takes an unexpected emotional turn when discussing grief, with Kim sharing her 20-year journey after losing her mother. Her unique perspective that her mother is "on vacation" rather than gone demonstrates how differently we process loss. This raw vulnerability creates space for listeners to validate their own grief experiences.

    Most powerfully, Kim challenges us to choose calling over comfort: "A queen's heart knows her calling is greater than her comfort." We explore how stepping beyond familiar territory—like Kim's 50th birthday skydive—often leads to our greatest healing and purpose fulfillment. When you align with your calling, everything shifts—relationships, opportunities, and your sense of self.

  • Life After Diagnosis: Finding Purpose Through Pain
    2025/07/24

    Send us a text

    What happens when your life's script gets completely rewritten? Coach Tara sits down with bestselling author Menzaire "Menzie" Boykins-Esters for a raw, faith-filled conversation about surviving life-altering diagnoses and discovering purpose through pain.

    At age 39, both women faced shocking news – stage three breast cancer for Coach Tara and a hemorrhagic stroke for Menzie. Their parallel journeys reveal striking spiritual lessons about identity beyond diagnosis, finding joy in the valley, and transforming suffering into service. With remarkable vulnerability, Menzie shares the moment her life changed forever – from planning her 40th birthday celebration to fighting for her life after a stroke caused by an arterial venous malformation she never knew she had.

    This conversation goes far beyond medical details to explore the deep spiritual terrain of healing. Both women share how their faith carried them through their darkest moments and how their "new normal" led to newfound purpose. Minzy's creation of "The Garden of Perseverance," her monthly Praise nature walks, and her bestselling book "Breathe Sis" all emerged from her healing journey. Similarly, Coach Tara transitioned from salon ownership to ministry, authorship, and coaching.

    The most powerful thread throughout this episode is the transformation of tragedy into testimony. As Menzie beautifully puts it, "The valley is a place where I met fire and pressure and came out as pure gold." Whether you're currently facing a health crisis, supporting someone who is, or simply seeking inspiration for life's challenges, this conversation offers a blueprint for finding purpose beyond pain and embracing the divine redirection that often follows our most difficult seasons.
