What Are You Making Room for in Your Next Season?
Hello Beautiful,
I am so excited! It is hard to believe that we are only 8 days away from the BAM TransformHER Retreat: The Metamorphosis Experience.
I have prayed, planned, prepared, and poured my heart into creating an experience where women can pause, breathe, receive, and prepare for what God is doing next.
But as I prepare for this retreat, I keep thinking about one question:
What are you making room for in your next season?
Sometimes we ask God for more while holding on to things that are taking up the space where more needs to enter. We are carrying old disappointments, responsibilities that do not belong to us, fear about what comes next, and expectations that God never placed on us.
We keep moving because we are strong. We keep showing up because people depend on us. We keep pouring because that is what we have always done.
But even strong women need a place to breathe.
You cannot continue pouring from a place that has never been replenished. You cannot clearly hear God’s direction when your mind is filled with noise. You cannot fully embrace your next season while holding tightly to what belonged to the last one.
Sometimes transformation begins when you give yourself permission to stop.
Stop carrying everything.
Stop trying to fix everyone.
Stop feeling guilty for needing rest.
Stop believing that taking time for yourself means you are neglecting everyone else.
Rest is not weakness. Reflection is not wasted time. Making room for yourself does not make you selfish. Sometimes stepping away is exactly what allows you to return stronger, clearer, and more prepared.
The BAM TransformHER Retreat is more than a getaway. It is a space for women to release, receive, rebuild, and become.
It is a place to ask yourself:
What do I need to release?
What has this season taught me?
What is God asking me to carry forward?
What needs to remain behind?
Who am I becoming?
You may not be attending this retreat, but you can still create a moment of reflection right where you are.
Find a quiet place. Put down your phone. Open your journal. Sit with God and allow yourself to be honest about what you have been carrying.
You do not have to enter your next season exhausted.
You do not have to carry every responsibility alone.
You do not have to have every answer before you take your next step.
You only need to be willing to make room for God to speak, heal, restore, and redirect you.
To every woman attending the retreat, come with an open heart and great expectation. Do not come worried about having everything figured out. Come ready to be present. Come ready to release. Come ready to receive.
The prayers have been prayed. The details are being prepared. The atmosphere is being set.
Transformation is coming, and there is still more in you! 🦋💜
