      What if the new year didn’t start with pressure… but with presence?
      What if clarity came not from striving harder, but from slowing down long enough to hear God clearly?


      In this powerful livestream conversation, Cecily Lachapelle sits down with Lauren Black—decision coach, founder of Anchored Decisions, and creator of the SAIL Method—for a deeply grounding dialogue about prayer, sacred space, and learning to live (and decide) from rest instead of anxiety.


      This episode is less about performance and more about posture. Less about doing more—and more about being anchored.


      Lauren shares the heart and history behind her 31-Day Prayer Challenge, a Spirit-led invitation to begin the year with consecration rather than hustle. Together, Cecily and Lauren explore how prayer dismantles the lie of “not enough,” how sacred space recalibrates identity, and why pursuing God must come before pursuing outcomes.


      You’ll hear honest reflections on:

      • How overthinking, anxiety, and the need to prove ourselves quietly shape our decisions
      • Why beginning the year with prayer changes everything downstream
      • What God has done through the 31-Day Prayer Challenge—and why it’s become a yearly rhythm
      • The beauty of a community of diverse prayer leaders carrying one shared pursuit
      • Why Creating and Maintaining Sacred Space and Prioritizing the Pursuit of God are non-negotiable themes for this season
      • How decisions become clearer when presence becomes primary
      • What it looks like to live anchored, unhurried, and free from striving

      This conversation is invitational, testimonial, and deeply pastoral—calling women out of pressure-driven faith and into an anchored life with God.


      Whether you’re entering a new year weary, hungry, unsure, or longing for deeper intimacy with the Lord, this episode will meet you right where you are.

    • From Ashes to Legacy: Building Altars for Generations
      Dec 10 2025

      Send us a text

      Today on the podcast, we’re diving into a powerful and deeply personal message that began with a 4:30 AM encounter—one of those moments when heaven interrupts your sleep with a word that refuses to leave. On October 8th, 2024, the phrase “Smash the altars” stirred something in my spirit, initiating a months-long journey through Scripture, prayer, and spiritual clarity.

      Much like conversations around sober-minded living invite us to wake up, name what we’ve been carrying, and step into a life of alignment, this message calls us to examine the spiritual “altars” that shape our inner world—those unseen structures influencing our families, patterns, and generations.

      In this episode, we explore:

      • What spiritual altars truly are—and why they’re more than ancient artifacts
      • Why tearing down destructive altars in our lives and family lines is essential, but only the first step
      • How building righteous altars aligns us with God’s presence, clarity, and generational healing
      • Why Gideon couldn’t experience breakthrough until he confronted the altars speaking against his destiny
      • How these unseen spiritual platforms influence identity, finances, emotional cycles, addiction, and family legacy
      • Real stories of breakthrough that happened when people chose to build something holy, intentional, and aligned with God

      Just as women in the SoberSis movement discover freedom by naming what numbs them, this message invites you to name what’s been silently influencing your life—and partner with God for transformation.

      If you’ve felt stuck in cycles that repeat…
      If your blessings feel devoured before they reach your hands…
      If you sense God calling you to rise as a deliverer in your family line…

      This episode will give you the tools, clarity, and spiritual insight to dismantle what’s been hindering you—and build what will carry you and your family into freedom.

      This is Part 1 of a two-part series.
      👉 Don’t miss Part 2: Smash the Altars — Partnering with God for Freedom and Breakthrough, where we will walk through communion and the practical steps of tearing down and building up.

      📖 Scripture Focus: Judges 6–7, Hebrews 9 & 12, Romans 12:1, 1 Kings 13:2
