Do you feel pressure to have your gifts, calling, or purpose all figured out by now?

In this episode of Love Notes for Tribe Beloved, Cortney offers a calming reminder: clarity doesn’t usually arrive all at once — and you’re not broken if you’re still discovering yourself. Through reflections on motherhood, faith, and lived experience, she shares how God often reveals our gifts gently, one small piece at a time.

This episode is an exhale for any woman who feels behind, confused, or unsure where to begin.

What if the traits you’ve been trying to fix, manage, or apologize for aren’t flaws at all?

What if they’re evidence of how God designed you — on purpose?

In this episode of Tribe Beloved: Love Notes, Cortney reflects on enthusiasm, warmth, and emotional attentiveness — and how easily those gifts can be misnamed as “too much.” Through personal story, gentle reframing, and Psalm 139, this episode invites you to stop fixing yourself and start understanding how God wired you.

This is a permission-giving conversation for any woman who has ever wondered, “What’s wrong with me?” — and is ready to ask a better question.

In this episode, Cortney walks through a grace-filled, descriptive (not prescriptive) way to discern your Word of the Year. Instead of focusing on choosing the “perfect” word, she shares stories from her own life — Words like Intentional, Peace, Dwell in Grace, Choose Courage, Joy & Play, Delight, and Harmony — and how each one shaped her rhythms, decisions, and growth in surprising ways.

You’ll explore:

• what a Word of the Year really is (and what it’s not)
• how to let your Word emerge from your season
• why your Word doesn’t have to last 12 months
• how themes, desires, and repeated nudges play a role
• the question Cortney asks all her clients: “Who are you becoming?”
• simple prompts for choosing a life-giving, God-led Word

If you’re feeling pressure to pick the “right” word, this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air.
