God Circled Back and This Time, I'm All In

Tonight, I had an interest meeting with a potential client for Present Choice Center and y’all, it went amazing! The energy was on point, the conversation flowed, and sharing who I am, what I do, and how I serve felt so effortless.

After the call, I closed my apps, packed up my iPad, turned off the background music I always play during sessions (this keeps my spirit aligned and open to hear God). I completed some nightly duties, took a deep breath, and then embraced the evening. I had a quick thought.

"Even if this client doesn’t move forward, I’m good".

But… something in me says she will. 😏

And that’s when I heard it. So clear in my spirit:

“I circled back.”

The Conversation That Shifted Me

During our call, my potential client shared a story about hanging out with some of her “day ones” — those friends who’ve been there since the beginning. But this time, something felt different. Her spirit had shifted, but theirs… hadn’t.

To prepare her for what coaching would look like, I shared the “why” behind what she was feeling. That moment was a reminder: she has outgrown that space.

And listen — outgrowing a space doesn’t mean you have to change your friends or judge them. Lord knows we want all our day ones healed, free, and growing right alongside us. We want to be able to keep pouring into each other. But the truth is… not all are in their healing era yet. And when you keep showing up in spaces where people aren’t growing, it can be frustrating — if not, draining.

I know because I’ve been there. I shared with her about my own journey with people I love and how I want to see them step fully into who God created them to be. But I understand now that we all have to make that decision to go all in with God and that’s not something I can do for them.

God’s Gentle Reminder

As I was completeing the nightly routines and still reflecting the call, I heard God so clearly:

“I circled back.”

Not in a harsh way. Not in a judgmental way. But a loving check-in…

“Daughter, are you ready this time?”

And whew… I got emotional 😢

See, what you may not know is that Present Choice Center has been established since 2020. In all these years, I’ve served only four paying clients. Not because God hasn’t been faithful, but because I wasn’t fully walking in what He gave me. I was coaching, yes — but I was also stumbling through the paperwork, doubting my abilities, shrinking myself, and letting fear speak louder than faith.

I circled back to old mindsets.

I circled back to old responses.

I circled back to fear.

But this time feels different.

The Evidence That God Circled Back

Over the last few months, God has been showing me that He’s moving differently in this season:

I was a presenter at an annual conference that had record-breaking attendance.

I was featured in a news article someone recommended me for — totally unexpected.

And now, this potential client… who also happens to have a podcast… asked me to be a guest co-host. 😱

Y’all… this time, it’s different. God circled back — and this time, I’m saying YES.

Faith the Fear 🕊️

To honor what God is doing, I got a tattoo that says “Faith the Fear.”

For me, this means I’m going to move where God leads me, scared or not. Fear might be present, but faith is louder.

I may not have all the details. I may not feel qualified. But I know this:

If God called me to it, He’s already equipped me for it.

No more shrinking.

No more hiding.

No more talking myself out of what God already promised me.

I’m faithing each fear — one step, one yes, one leap at a time.

The Question for You

Here’s what I want to leave you with:

How many times has something you prayed for circled back around? Something you asked God for, but when it came, you weren’t ready to receive it?

And now… here you are.

Different season.

Different mindset.

Different posture.

God is asking: “Are you ready this time?”

For me, saying yes meant giving up old behaviors, shifting old mindsets, and consecrating my life in a deeper way. I had to get back into alignment so I wouldn’t miss what God had for me.

And now, I can finally say with my whole chest:

“Yes, Lord. I’m ready.”

This season, I’m grateful for His grace, His mercy, and His patience with me.

I’m thankful… because God circled back.

Cheers to the next chapter. 🥂
