  • 26. What If the Thing You’re Trying to Fix Is Actually a Gift?
    Jan 8 2026

    What if the traits you’ve been trying to fix, manage, or apologize for aren’t flaws at all?


    What if they’re evidence of how God designed you — on purpose?


    In this episode of Tribe Beloved: Love Notes, Cortney reflects on enthusiasm, warmth, and emotional attentiveness — and how easily those gifts can be misnamed as “too much.” Through personal story, gentle reframing, and Psalm 139, this episode invites you to stop fixing yourself and start understanding how God wired you.


    This is a permission-giving conversation for any woman who has ever wondered, “What’s wrong with me?” — and is ready to ask a better question.


    🪞💭Reflection Question:

    What’s a trait you’ve been managing or apologizing for that you’re starting to wonder might not be something to fix after all?


    Mentioned in This Episode:

    📖 Psalm 139:14

  • 25. How to choose your word of the year
    Jan 1 2026

    In this episode, Cortney walks through a grace-filled, descriptive (not prescriptive) way to discern your Word of the Year. Instead of focusing on choosing the “perfect” word, she shares stories from her own life — Words like Intentional, Peace, Dwell in Grace, Choose Courage, Joy & Play, Delight, and Harmony — and how each one shaped her rhythms, decisions, and growth in surprising ways.


    You’ll explore:

    • what a Word of the Year really is (and what it’s not)
    • how to let your Word emerge from your season
    • why your Word doesn’t have to last 12 months
    • how themes, desires, and repeated nudges play a role
    • the question Cortney asks all her clients: “Who are you becoming?”
    • simple prompts for choosing a life-giving, God-led Word


    If you’re feeling pressure to pick the “right” word, this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air.

  • Mini 03-You don't know what you don't know
    Dec 28 2025

    In this short reflection, I share a recent moment of realizing I was making assumptions I didn’t even know I was making — and the humbling reality that sometimes we don’t know the questions we need to ask until we’re already in the thick of things. If you’re in a season where something you expected to be simple suddenly has layers, this one’s for you.


    In this episode:

    • navigating unexpected learning curves
    • why “you don’t know what you don’t know” is both frustrating and comforting
    • remembering: this is your first time doing this
    • God’s presence in the places you didn’t know you needed help


    Takeaway:

    Learning curves aren’t failures. They’re part of being human — and God meets you right in the middle of them.
