Are you prepared for your season of suddenly, and can you recognize when it is here?

This is a very important podcast episode because I truly believe many of us are entering into a season of unexpected blessings, sudden downpours, and by the grace of God, we are getting ready to reap the harvest that has been sewn for years.

Your hard labor was never in vain. You were preparing, and now your suddenly season is approaching.

Will you be ready?

Sometimes all we have to do is take the first step.

Only after you take that first step are you in position to see the next one.

I pray you are encouraged by this podcast episode, “What God Is Building Behind the Scenes,” as I share what God has been building behind the scenes in my own life with the upcoming Unlocking Greatness Retreat taking place June 13, 2026, in Chicago.

If you’ve ever wondered how God brings a vision together one step at a time, I believe this podcast episode will encourage you.

Tonight’s episode is very personal… it’s about giving birth. Giving birth to greatness.

I chose to record and post this special message on this Mother’s Day evening to share from one of the most difficult seasons of my life after losing my 23 year old son. Even in the moment of my deepest grief, God reminded me that His purpose for my life still remained, and I was created to birth the greatness He placed within me.

In this episode, I read from Chapter 23 of my book “necessary.” and I shared part of the dedication I wrote to my son.

Life is so short and precious, and it is important that we strive to draw closer to God each and every day.

We cannot continue delaying the greatness, dreams, and assignments God placed inside of us.

At some point, we must stop hiding what God planted within us and give birth to what He entrusted to us.

In-Person Retreat:

I also shared a special announcement about the official opening of my first in-person Unlocking Greatness Retreat, something that has been in my heart for many years.

By the grace of God, I look forward to meeting many of you.

There are moments in life where something has to change. You can’t keep playing small, underestimating your value, and repeating the same patterns when opposition appears.

You reach a point where you realize you cannot continue responding the same way, thinking the same way, or staying in the same patterns and expect a different outcome.

In this podcast episode, I walk through the reality of repeated cycles and why many people remain stuck in them. I also break down what to do when resistance shows up, how to evaluate your response in those moments, and why your default reaction is often the very thing that can keep you in the same place.

You’ll learn how to pause (freeze), look your patterns, and respond in a way that aligns with who you are becoming rather than who you have been.

We also discuss the importance of recognizing what you were doing before opposition appeared, and how staying aligned with what God has called you to do changes how you interpret resistance altogether. This is how we can be joyful always.

I pray this podcast episode will challenge how you see setbacks, resistance, and opposition, and help you recognize when you are being distracted versus when you are being confirmed.

👉🏽 If you’re ready to grow in spiritual clarity, mindset, and entrepreneurship, I invite you to UnlockingGreatness to attend my upcoming live workshop sessions designed for leaders and entrepreneurs who are ready to build what God has entrusted to them. No more playing small.

Much love,

Z.

It is too dangerous to seek validation from people when God has already chosen you to uniquely rule over your assignment the way He has instructed for you to do so.

When God chooses you, your identity is not up for debate.

You don’t need approval to dream.
You don’t need permission from others to walk in the authority God gave you.
You don’t need confirmation from people to agree with what God said is possible in your life.

If God said it, then it’s settled.

If God chose you, then it is already done.

Your circumstances do not get to decide what is possible in your life.

God already did.

This is why you must stop looking for validation and start walking in who He already called you to be.

If this is speaking to you, I encourage you to read my book “necessary.” and take some time to reflect on what God has already said about you.

Can you thank God one more time?

Sometimes it becomes so easy to forget all that God has done, and all that He has protected us from… even when His answer was no.

I encourage you to lift your hands and thank God for everything He has done in your life… even for the things you are unaware of… even for the doors He closed… and for the doors He has gone before you and opened. Thank Him.

These are some hidden patterns I’ve noticed, especially among those who are called to lead.

After dozens of recent conversations, it became clear that many are pouring into others while neglecting critical areas in their own lives. And over time, that neglect has a cost.

SPIRITUAL DISCIPLINE

Staying rooted in the Word of God, in His presence, and in the authority you’ve been given. Without consistency, we don’t just drift, we begin to forget what we carry and how to stand.

MINDSET AND ENVIRONMENT

How you think, what you’re learning, and who you’re around are shaping your outcomes daily. If your mind is not being renewed and your environment is not sharpening you, your growth can become limited.

PHYSICAL STEWARDSHIP

Taking care of your body so you have the strength, clarity, and capacity to carry what you’ve been called to do. We must give ourselves permission to rest and take care of ourselves… especially the leaders who pour into others while neglecting themselves.

This is about alignment across every area of your life. What you neglect can eventually affect how you lead, how you think, and how you show up.

For those who are called to lead, I look forward to speaking with you one day inside a Clarity Conversation or talking with you in my live workshop sessions.

The chapter mentioned in this episode was from my book “necessary.” Audiobook and videobook available at UnlockingGreatness.com
