God Made Me Wait For Three Years, But The Leadership Lessons Changed Everything

If you’ve ever found yourself in a season where things just aren’t moving the way you hoped, this one’s for you. Maybe you’ve prayed, prepared, and poured yourself out… only to feel like the door still hasn’t opened. You start to wonder if you heard God right, if you missed your moment, or if maybe you’re the one holding things up.
I’ve been there.
Recently, I received an answered prayer related to my job – after three years of waiting. Initially, I was told that everything would be in place by a specific timeframe – instead of realizing the desired result, I got a delay. Then another delay. And another delay. After one such delay, I remember sitting at my desk typing my resignation letter and updating my resume. I had resolved the delays were a sign I needed to move on. Then, I paused and prayed. The prayer reflected the turmoil in my heart.
“God help me. I’m frustrated. I’m angry. I need you to help me.”
Looking back, I see that what I needed was to process the emotions so that I could clear my mind and heart so that I could understand what God was telling me to do next. I solicited the support of a coach (yes, even coaches have coaches), who helped me move from a defensive mindset to a strategic offensive mindset. I stopped obsessing about the delay and focused on becoming the leader I needed to be in this season.
As I reflected on that journey, I thought about what would have helped me process my emotions, gain clarity, and realign my heart with God. That’s what inspired my new guide – From Here to Whole: A Spiritual Grounding Guide for Your New Season.

Inside, you’ll find guided reflections, prayers, and journal prompts to help you draw closer to God during this “in-between” season. You’ll also find simple grounding practices for when life feels fast or full to help you find moments of peace.
This guide would have been such a blessing for me. It’s a safe place to invite God’s perspective on what you’re facing, process your emotions, and move forward with confidence.
Whether you need this tool now or want to save it for down the road, join my email list, and the 10-page guided worksheet will be sent straight to your inbox!
As you move through the worksheet, if you feel God nudging you to keep going, to dig deeper – I’d love to walk alongside you. Click here to schedule a free discovery call, and we’ll explore how to blend faith and strategy as you become the women God created you to be.
And remember: you already have everything you need to move from here to whole.
Be Well,
The LIPSTICK Coach
