NOTHING had more power over you than your thoughts

NOTHING had more power over you than your thoughts 💭!!!

It’s your thoughts that are the master of your creations. You’re sent here to create & have joy! But where does that come from? Your thoughts!

It’s also your thoughts that create your energy, your subconscious beliefs, your relationship with God, and everything in between.

Are you willing to catch your thoughts? To change the thoughts that need to be changed? To acknowledge all of them and then create an order to where you send your thoughts?

Taking power over your thoughts is the foundation to taking power over your life!!!

Comment with an emoji that fits the current relationship you’re having with your thoughts. Are your thoughts currently mostly positive or negative? That way, I’ll know how to help.

One of my favorite things to speak about, making o

One of my favorite things to speak about, making other people feel important.

We’re living in a world 🌍 that is so extremely divisive right now that we forget to remind ourselves that we ALL have a few things in a common. The greatest one being we all not only desire, but have a deep NEED for being seen. We all just want to know that we matter & we are important.

We so often wait for others to notice us or be the one to reach out. What if you being THE ONE not only changes their life, but changes your own.

You can’t help but feel like an angel or a queen 👑 when you make those people around you (or the contacts you have in your phone) feel important!

Here’s the challenge: Say a prayer & then message 10 people that come to your mind of a positive attribute or gift you see in them and any other positive thoughts you feel inspired to share with them. Let the Spirit speak to them THROUGH YOU! If you complete the challenge, send me a DM so I can email you a gift. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Go make this world a better place!!!

You know those attributes you see in others & admi

You know those attributes you see in others & admire about them? Those same attributes are in YOU!! You see what you are or what you are capable of becoming!

I’ve had a lot of fear & anxiety in my life and always admired those who had great faith & courage. But the opposite of your weakness is always a strength within YOU! I’m now discovering that my faith has been being created and also apart of me all along.

If there is a talent, a gift, an attribute that really stands out to you in others, start searching for it and working towards it because it’s PROOF you’re capable of becoming it! Otherwise, it wouldn’t be that appealing to you.

What we see is often what we are! Happy discovering!!! 💛

Exercising is such an important thing to do on the

Exercising is such an important thing to do on the daily!

To take good care of yourself and pour into yourself through healthy habits and you’ll be able to bless the lives of those around you so much more!!

Another amazing thing about exercising is the ability it gives you over the adversary. He would do anything to have a body. When you use your body in good purposes and treat it like a temple by taking good care of it, you’re showing the adversary that you know you have power over your life. When done with your health and the intention of detoxing toxins out of your body, you show him you value yourself and he has no power over you!!

What are your favorite ways to work out 🏋🏽‍♀️ & get your body moving? ⬇️

To the girl that is feeling worthless today: My h

To the girl that is feeling worthless today:

My heart goes out to you!!! I have felt that deep dark pit & feeling more times than I would have ever desired and especially more times than I’m capable of counting. But you know what? The feeling does NOT last forever!

Maybe you’re asking yourself why God has ever allowed you to feel this way, but He only allows things to happen when there is a greater purpose.

Here’s 5 things I want the girl that feels less than a grain of a sand to know!

1️⃣ These thoughts aren’t truth! Why do they happen? Possibly from a subconscious belief, Satan feeds it to those who have big missions often, and it could even be a self sabotage coping mechanism because you know just how amazing you are but you fear your greatness.

2️⃣ You are HERE for a reason! Put your hand on your heartbeat 💗 or pulse for just a moment and soak that gift of life in! Sit with it! Love it! Every breath is sustained by God. We think we are the ones keep ourselves alive, but really it would NOT be possible without God. So if you’re alive, He needs you! Pray to ask just how He’s going to use YOU!

3️⃣ No one is better than you and no one is less than you. Just because it looks like it feels like people are doing better or worth more because they have something that you don’t does not make it true! That’s our mortal perception and it messes with us a lot. I will shout it from the rooftops, we are ALL equal!!!! So tell those nasty voices to go ⬇️ to a very dark place where they belong.

4️⃣ When you finally feel like you’ve climbed out of this hole 🕳 for just a moment, the lessons you’ll have learned & the insights you gained will be live changing in the most joyous way! So just hang on!

5️⃣ God our Father and our brother Jesus Christ love you 💕💕💕more than you can fathom. My heart mourns & breaks for you that you can’t feel it at this time. But you can certainly lean on my knowledge of this until it’s strong enough within you! Ask Them to show you that They love you and then watch every single day for Their love notes 📝💗 to appear!

Need more love & support! Send me a DM so I can be your big sister and remind you with all that sisterly love!!!

We’re living in a scary time when this world 🌎 is going through some very turbulent times.

Sometimes it’s so easy to get overwhelmed in great fear, especially as things come to an end for this election 🗳 year.

We have to remember it’s God that is in control. He’s filled this earth with SO many angels during this time! We aren’t alone. We have to stay focused on Him.

Just a reminder that it is PERFECT love that casteth out ALL FEAR! LOVE leads to light!

How might we be able to love each other more deeply? How might we be able to create more unity rather than division? How can we find safety for our souls? It’s only through God. Turn your heart to love tonight to let go of some of your greatest pains!

If you have fear that is too heavy, message me and we can talk! I’m praying for each one of you sweet girls! You are NOT alone! Focus on the great Healer who will bring love to you! ♥️♥️♥️

That emotion that you’re feeling this very secon

That emotion that you’re feeling this very second, sit with it!!! It’s with you for a reason. Every emotion we experience, no matter how painful or uncomfortable it may feel is here to teach you something and is with you for a reason.

We have to feel in order to heal!!!

One of my favorite exercises to do is to write down what I’m feeling, where I feel it in my body, what I think it might be there to teach more, and then I create a positive affirmation saying “I choose to believe I am at peace”, if it was anxiety I was feeling.

If an emotion is coming up that you want to resist, you feel shame for having, or it’s purely uncomfortable; take comfort in knowing that everyone has or will feel this emotion too. Maybe not to the same intensity as you, but you are not alone. And Christ felt it in the way you feel it BEFORE you did, so he knows how to console & comfort you! You will get through this, this moment too shall pass!!!

Every emotion teaches us something new about ourselves, about the world, and about what love is or is not. No emotion is bad or wasted!

Having been back to school for a month or so now a

Having been back to school for a month or so now and with all the craziness going on at this time, can I offer you five pieces of wisdom?!!

1️⃣ Be YOU!!! I know, this is so cliche’, but seriously this is one of the most important things you can do!!! You’re YOU for a reason! Be that authentic you to fulfill the mission you were sent here to do. Message me if have questions or need help with this one. It’s VITAL for this generation to be authentic & real! (I’ll share more on this later!)

2️⃣ Serve others!!! So often we want to be popular & fit in. One of the best ways to make friends is by serving others even if they don’t give back. People don’t remember your jeans 👖, they remember how they felt when they were around you.

3️⃣ Get involved! To any extent you can be involved in groups, clubs, sports, etc. Those help you make friends, discover more of yourself, and allow you to have better future opportunities as well.

4️⃣ Put TIME into your homework! To be educated & be smart is a principle of the gospel. To be smart doesn’t mean you’re a great test taker or always know the answers, it means you’re simply willing to challenge the thinking of others & putting in the effort.

5️⃣ Create a daily gratitude list. 📝 Seriously, this time in your life passes so quickly and often teens just want to pass over it and be an adult already. Enjoy the moment you’re in, it’s a glorious time worth cherishing!!!

Have any back to school questions? Send me a DM!!! My inbox is ALWAYS open to you!!!

Oftentimes the words others say to us or just our

Oftentimes the words others say to us or just our about the judgements of others can affect the way we feel about ourselves.

But, when we remember that what others think about us, say about us, or any belief they may have doesn’t effect our value, we’re able to show up more true to who we are and who we were meant to be!

Don’t let those labels tear you down. You choose what you think about you!! Do you want to like yourself? Deep down you truly do! So give yourself permission to like yourself today!! We all have the same intrinsic value and when we believe that, we feel different, and we show up ready to love others even if they may not currently be their best self.

There is great power in everyday journaling. It allows you to sort out your emotions and become more aware of how you think, what you believe, and in tune with the authentic version of you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I strongly encourage the girls that I work with to journal as it a huge way for them to let go of the spinning thoughts that so often weigh them down. I encourage them to not write lots of the heavy negative in their keepsake journals because I don't want them reading that over and over. When you read the negative, you start to take it on again and that negative energy is then recreated.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Instead, I encourage girls to write down all the negative on a loose piece of paper. Whether its memories, anger, stressed about a specific event, etc. Then find a way to destroy it either through burning, ripping, or shredding. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
THEN, go write the positive or the highlights along with the solutions in their journals. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have more journal tips coming for you soon, so stay tuned! HAPPY WRITING!!

It’s been on my mind so heavily about how we all

It’s been on my mind so heavily about how we all have some sort of addiction that holds us back from truly letting Christ into our hearts.

I see it often in the girls I work with. I see it in this generation immensely as this is the most powerful generation yet, and Christ wants to stop them. I see it in a diverse range of genders, generations, and I’ve even seen it in myself time and time again.

When we are craving anything more than we are craving God, it’s too much!
These could be things like...
- food (stuffing emotions) 🌮🍦🍩
- entertainment / TV 📺
- attention / validation ⭐️
- popularity 📣
- money 💵
- beauty 💄
- social media 👩🏽‍💻
- and a plethora of other things

Don’t get me wrong, these things ARE NOT BAD. YOU ARE NOT BAD FOR USING these things.

It’s simply that when our spirits came to earth, they had some spaces that seek to be filled daily. When we aren’t feeling our hearts with Christ, we seek to feel that void with something else. Nothing will be able to feel it like God Can! So we keep going after that thing over and over hoping to finally feel like we’re complete. Nothing can complete you like God can.

If you’re missing that relationship or love from God, it could be that your heart just needs some healing. I believe the church’s addiction program is for EVERYONE! I’ve seen miracles come from this program for depression, anxiety, OCD, self objectification, and especially higher self-esteem.

I’ve been thinking of leading one via Zoom for teens & YA’s. So I’m going to do a poll on my stories to see just how many might be interested.

We all have doubts, don’t we? But you don’t ha

We all have doubts, don’t we? But you don’t have to stay stuck in your doubts. Doubts are the opposite of faith which is how we know they are coming from the adversary.
• • •
Here’s a little process activity to help you walk through your doubts and conquer them like you were meant to.
• • •
As you move your doubts aside and let go of them by giving them to YOUR Savior, incredible things are going to flood into your life! I can’t wait for YOU to move forward and break free from these barriers.

Interested in holding a PJ’S (prayer • journal

Interested in holding a PJ’S (prayer • journal • scriptures) sleepover / night-over with some of your cousins, siblings, or BFF’s? I’ve got you covered!! The kits are $10 a piece and they come with all the supplies each individual girl will need for all the activities & devotional time.
•
If it’s too expensive to host it for everyone, just have every girl bring her own $10 - it even comes with a cute box she’ll love keeping some of her most favorite things in.
•
When you buy 5 or more kits or get that many girls to pitch in, I’ll come speak at your party for 1 hour FREE and guide you through a devotional!!
•
PJ’S are the most important thing a girl can learn to armor up with in this day & age!!! These activities will be a foundation to build upon for years to come!! Now is the time to prepare!
•
I also make raw treats and sell them for parties, so ask me about those! Not sure what a raw treat is? They are packed with healthy ingredients, they are vegan, they are never baked or processed, and the nutrients you get from them you’ll not even be aware of as they are so delicious!
•
Message me with any questions or to plan your party 🎉 today!!!

Sometimes we have this belief that if we need to a

Sometimes we have this belief that if we need to ask for help or don’t have the answers immediately, we’re not very smart. That is NEVER the case!!! Take power over your intellectual health by being willing to be humble enough to ask for help!
•
Here’s some resources to turn to to get the help you need. It’s the smart girls that are ASKING for help, believe me!!!
•
Also, a quick tip that’s helped me immensely is to study 📖 the Book of Mormon everyday for extra help from The Lord and the Holy Ghost. Because remember, they have the truth of ALL things!!!

Christ loves you deeply. ♥️♥️ I sometimes

Christ loves you deeply. ♥️♥️ I sometimes will meet girls that don’t feel worthy of Christ’s unconditional love or his presence in their life.

BUT... that’s now how he works! He loves you knowing beforehand absolutely everything you would do. He loves you for YOU!!!

His love doesn’t go to just a select few, his heart is big enough for each and every child of God. That means every spirit that had lived, is living, or will live both in Heaven and on earth. You don’t need to comprehend it to lean into it.

Invite Christ into your heart to have Him nurture you and your life simply by
- reading about him
- watching a video of his life
- pondering on his sacrifice
- reflecting on his love
- learning about his attributes
- praying in his name
- seeking to follow him
- repenting through his atonement
- loving his sheep 🐑
- doing His Father’s will

One of the best things you can do for your mental

One of the best things you can do for your mental health is to soak up more rays of sun ☀️. Sunshine is the greatest source of Vitamin D!! Vitamin D helps your mind & spirit to be more calm, more alert, and more in tune with God’s voice of truth.
• • •
Whenever I’m trying to help someone out of a depression funk, the first thing I suggest is to soak up more sunlight as it is one of the greatest forces of healing God has blessed us with.
• • •
A quick note that 15 minutes a day in the sun without sunscreen 🧴 is how you’re going to get the vitamins. You’ll never burn if you slowly and wisely build up your tolerance to the sun. I suggest opting for a natural sunscreen if you do need one. Message me for my favorite recommendations.

The power that comes from reading 📖 The Book of

The power that comes from reading 📖 The Book of Mormon every single day can’t be duplicated by any other source.
•
I talk to so many teens and they often tell me that they don’t understand everything or sometimes anything of what they’re reading. And you know what, that’s totally okay!!
•
Reading consistently whether you comprehend all the words or not is what is going to create that stream of power and those building blocks for better understanding & growth in the principles.
•
My recommendations:
- the family edition of The Book of Mormon for greater comprehension
- the living scriptures videos
- @courtneycasper.letters BOM journals
- And come follow me podcasts

So many of you are back in school or start in the next week or two.

School 🏫 is now a little bit weird, isn’t it? Maybe you’re being home schooled for the first time or maybe you’re just trying to make this time as normal as possible. Whatever the case, I’m praying for you!

Don’t forget you were born at this time FOR A REASON!!! You were prepared in Heaven for anything you would encounter here!
