Motivational Monday with Coach Nancy, Abounding Faith Coaching & Consulting

Hey Audacious Dreamers & Doers, by God’s grace we’ve made it to the second to last month of 2022!

How’s everything going with your God-given dreams?

Feeling a bit tired, weary or discouraged?

Don’t quit now!

Keep Going!

November is all about being grateful and counting our blessings.

Even if there’s been bumps or setbacks along the road, we can still stop and be grateful to God for getting us to this point.

I hope you can look back on your year with much gratitude.

I also pray you can look ahead with hope.

I hope these Motivational Monday blog posts have been inspiring you! If so, I’d love to know.

And if you’ve been thinking about contacting me to be your Life Coach and to help you prayerfully reach your breakthrough, today is a great day to DM me on Abounding Faith’s Instagram.

If you’re feeling stuck or unsure about what to do in this season, I’d be delighted to come alongside you and coach you to your breakthrough.

As your Life Coach, I’d be honored to help you gain the clarity, confidence and courage to say yes to God’s call on your life.

I can prayerfully help you:

  • Discover your God-given gifts and purpose
  • Develop a personalized action plan so you can use your unique giftings and skills to impact and inspire others
  • Dare to live your God-given dreams and purpose and experience that breakthrough you’ve been longing for

If you dream of writing a book but you’ve hit a brick wall with your work in progress and need some guidance from someone who has been down those roads before, I’d be delighted to answer your burning questions and help you break through that specific area you’re struggling with.

Learn more about the “Write that Book” Strategy Call right here.

You don’t have to struggle all alone to move forward with what you feel God’s calling you to do.

I’d be delighted to help you go from:

  • frazzled to focused
  • frustrated to fruitful
  • fearful to fierce

Let’s SOAR together in this new season!

Be fierce. Be faithful. Be fruitful. Be who God is calling you to be!

Inside the Writer’s Notebook: Why I Write (Part 1) – National Day on Writing

October 20 is the National Day on Writing. What a great time to share this post.

Why I Write (Part 1) ✍️: Because God made me a writer. It’s as natural (and essential) for me as breathing and smiling…

As a child, I kept diaries and made mini-magazines at home. I later got my master’s degree in journalism from NYU and worked as a journalist. When I felt God calling me out of journalism, my writing went into hiding for YEARS.

God then called me to write about Him. Now I write Christian living books and devotionals ….

It’s been quite a long journey. So glad you’re on this faith journey with me!

If any of my books, blog posts, social media captions or podcast episodes inspire or encourage you, Glory! Please feel free to show luv on Abounding Faith’s Instagram.

Want to see more Latina/o authors, writers, speakers, etc? Wonderful!

Be sure to show your luv and support for those already doing the work …

Your likes, comments, shares, kind Amazon reviews and your purchases (for you and your loved ones) count more than you know, even in the Christian publishing world.

Gracias for staying on this faith journey with me!

You can find Abounding Faith’s FIVE inspirational, encouraging and empowering Christian living books and devotionals in print and on Kindle on Amazon.

Spanning the Globe – Roctober Edition

I’ve been blessed to travel the WORLD over the years for work, vacation and short-term missions trips.

Oh, what a big and beautiful world it is …

I never wanted to keep a tally of my travels because I wasn’t trying to reach a certain number by a certain timeframe.

But I thought I’d finally do a count to see where things stand so far.

I’m sharing my current total for the first time … these numbers don’t include any layovers in different countries/states and the total doesn’t include that I’ve traveled to five of these countries and a few of these states several times. Each country and state are included only once …

Drumroll please …

God has allowed me to (so far) travel to:

  • 6 Continents
  • 22 Countries
  • 17 States + Washington, D.C.

What an honor and blessing it’s been to see God’s fingerprints all throughout the globe!

Only God knows when and where I’ll go next.

I appreciate your prayers!

The short video above is just a glimpse of some of the beauty I’ve seen on SIX continents and out west … this doesn’t include all the states or countries I’ve been to… just some of the highlights …

God has spoken to me in such special ways during most of these trips ….

If’ you’d like to read about how I’ve seen God’s fingerprints across the globe, check out By Faith: Adventures and Reflections on Walking With God Here and Abroad.

There’s also a chapter on living your God-given dreams and discussion questions you can use with your connect group or book club.

By Faith is available on Amazon. If you’ve been blessed by By Faith, please take a moment to leave a kind Amazon review and rating.

You can watch videos of some of my travels on Abounding Faith’s YouTube channel.

I may not be traveling as much these days, but I’m so grateful that through Abounding Faith’s FIVE Christian living books and devotionals and by speaking online etc… I can continue to reach more and more Readers and nations.

Abounding Faith’s Readers are located (so far) on/in:

  • 5 Continents
  • 10 Countries (outside of the U.S.)
  • 16 States

Gracias for staying on this faith journey with me!

I hope Abounding Faith’s books, this blog, the Abounding Faith for Today podcast, and Abounding Faith’s YouTube channel and social media posts, etc… have been a blessing to you and yours, wherever you’re located in the world!

“Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” (Psalm 34:8 NIV)

Thoughts on Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month

Happy Hispanic Heritage Month (9/15-10/15) 🎉 As you celebrate the rich and vibrant Latino/Hispanic culture, please keep in mind these friendly reminders:

✨ We’re a very diverse group.

✨ We come in all different shapes, sizes, colors and heights.

✨ We don’t all speak Spanish.

✨ We’re not all immigrants. Many of us were born here. Some of our families have been in the U.S. before it was even U.S. territory. Others are automatic citizens (Puerto Rico we see you).

✨ Your kindness will go a long way in helping newer immigrants feel welcome.

✨ Asylum seekers and refugees allowed into the U.S. are NOT illegal aliens.

✨ We’re more than just entertainers and athletes or tacos and guacamole (although, that’s all muy bueno).

We’re also doctors, lawyers, authors, business owners, NASA engineers, politicians, teachers, social workers, nurses, pastors and so much more …

We’re here ALL throughout the year …

Some are doing back-breaking work or are essential workers who helped keep the economy going even during a global pandemic. (Have you thanked an essential or service worker lately?) Others have served in the military (for generations) to help defend our freedom 🇺🇸

So during this Hispanic Heritage Month and beyond:

✅ Celebrate and learn about our different cultures and heritages.

✅ Invite us inside your communities and save a few seats for us among your tables of influence.

✅ Hire us, pay us fairly, and support our books, businesses, art, causes, etc..

✅ Lament with us when you see news reports about how our gente and communities here or abroad are suffering.

✅ Help to amplify and promote our stories and voices whether it’s in English, Spanish, Spanglish or other. Positive representation matters!

GRACIAS to those of you already celebrating with us 💕

How do you celebrate the Hispanic culture? Let me know on Abounding Faith’s Instagram.
