Do you ever feel like you’ll never change? I used to feel that way. I would try and try to change and nothing worked. Procrastination, overeating, people pleasing, annoyance, depression, insecurity–those were all things that controlled me with no end in sight.

I wanted to change, but I didn’t know how. Instead, I went back and forth between reading self-help books (trying in my own strength) and asking God to change me (relying solely on His strength). Neither approach worked.

Instead, I kept failing over and over again. This was discouraging and I anticipated a life of defeat. Thankfully, God stepped in and took charge.

He taught me how to renew my mind and partner with Him for transformation. The transformation wasn’t instant like I wanted, but it was long-lasting. And it brought me closer to Him than I’d ever been before. The transformation was just the icing on the cake.

God used that transformation to bring a woman who hated writing and spent much of her life on the couch into a new life of breaking free from procrastination and emotional eating to write 9 books, create 2 podcasts, and my latest venture: teaching online courses (1 down and more to go!). And if God can change me, He can definitely change you!
