Shannon and Rochinda pull back the curtain on their partnership during the Faithfully Yours conference, illustrating how a visionary (Rochinda) and an implementer (Shannon) can work in perfect harmony when there is radical trust. From utilizing the "Crown Checker Catalyst Playbook" to the "proud birth mother" moment of seeing lives changed, this episode is a masterclass in leadership, legacy, and taking your first step toward greatness.

Key Discussion Points

• Advice for the Woman on the Edge: Rochinda encourages women to not just leap, but to "enjoy the ride" on the way down.
  • Shannon counters the fear of perfectionism with a "just do it" mantra, explaining how action creates momentum that makes every subsequent step easier.
• The Crown Checker Catalyst: Shannon shares how she integrated the Crown Checker Catalyst Playbook into her Faithfully Yours conference. The key takeaway: The tool is the foundation, but your unique "spin" and identity are what make it transformational.
• The Visionary-Implementer Dynamic: Rochinda describes the rare joy of watching someone else take her vision and run with it. They discuss the "birth mother" feeling of seeing a project succeed through the hands of another trusted leader.

Nakea opens up about the "pivotal moment" that changed everything: the loss of her father to COVID-19 in May 2020. She shares the raw reality of a Zoom-screen farewell and how God later provided a redeeming moment of presence while she cared for her bonus dad.

  • Make space for the "new you" and your new perspectives.
  • Prepare for the "you're acting different" crowd—and learn when to create distance to protect your peace.
• The "But God" Motivation: A look into Nakea’s spiritual endurance. She discusses how sitting in silence and repeating "strength, comfort, and keep me, Lord" provides the fuel to live an abundant life.
