Mindset Training: From Stress to Strength

You will leave this Workshop Knowing

 

  • A simple mindset tool (the STEAR process) to help you stay calm and grounded — even when others aren’t.

  • A renewed sense of peace and emotional clarity so you can respond with grace instead of stress.

  • Practical ways to refill your own energy without guilt — even when life feels busy and demanding.

  • Faith-rooted encouragement to remind you that God’s peace is available to you in every season.

  • A creative journaling prompt to turn your new insight into a beautiful moment of reflection.

  • A n understanding of my method of coaching and a chance to keep working with me if you decide you want more.

 We all at times struggle with…

  •  Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally exhausted.
  • Racing thoughts, sleepless nights, and that heavy “carrying it all” feeling.

  • Busy keeping everything and everyone on track....only to feel lonely and unappreciated. 

 

It’s true — as women, we hold so much together. We’re the glue in our families, our work, and our communities — juggling responsibilities, striving to do it all, and often running on empty.
But sometimes it feels like our emotions are sparking out of control, and we reach that point where we think to ourself, “I’ve had enough.”
We know we need a change… we just don’t know where to begin.

Your not alone.... I've been there too.

 

Real Positive Change helps you:

    • Understand what’s really happening in your thoughts and emotions.

    • Shift from overwhelm to calm using the S.T.E.A.R. process.

    • Respond with peace instead of reacting out of stress — allowing God’s grace to flow more freely and strengthen your relationships.

    • Feeling more confident in everyday challenges.

    • Communicate with ease, become less reactive, and create lasting emotional renewal — from the inside out.

    Through simple, faith-centered practices like creative journaling, re-pattern thoughts from the Creative Reminders library, and even a little art to anchor a change in your perception, you’ll gain clarity, renewal, and a deeper connection to your inner strength.

 


✨ How It Works

  1. Notice Your Feeling – Identify what you feel and what thoughts are creating that feeling.

  2. Choose a New Thought – Replace limiting or stressful thoughts with uplifting, empowering statements.

  3. Experience Positive Change – Calm your mind, restore energy, and take action from a place of strength.

 This call is completely free. No strings attached. Because I know what it’s like to be stuck, overwhelmed, and desperate for a clear path forward.  I’ve helped others break free from that trap, and I can help you too.

After the call, if you want to continue leaning more and practicing this new skill, I will tell you exactly how to do that if you want more.

Why I Do This Work

Was my goal to be a coach? No — my creative path began in design. After earning a BFA in Interior Design from the University of North Texas, I joined a prestigious architecture firm in Dallas before opening my own design business, helping clients create beautiful, meaningful homes.

Then one day, as I stood in the foyer of a new client’s home, I heard a quiet thought that changed everything:

“You’re helping create a beautiful home, but what about the chaos she feels inside? It won’t matter how beautiful her surroundings are if she feels unsettled, overwhelmed, or disconnected from herself.”

That question stayed with me — and life gave it deeper meaning. Around that same time, I began noticing growing levels of anxiety in our children, especially my oldest daughter, Aimee. A gifted young performer, she danced and sang on the Jim Stafford stage in Branson, captivating audiences and stealing hearts. What few could see was her private struggle with OCD and perfectionism.

I had just completed my training in stress management and had begun working with her when a tragic car accident took her from us. In that moment, I realized that all the tools and knowledge I had been learning weren’t just for her — they were to help our family navigate the profound loss and grief that followed.

Because of the challenges Aimee faced, and all that her journey taught me, my mission became clear:

To teach women and families how to lower the stress that fuels anxiety, shift the stories they tell themselves, and find creative ways to express feelings that words can’t always hold.
