Welcome back to Wholly Made Life. This is Angie, Tonini- Rogers, and I am your host for the podcast. Some of you said you've been listening and we've just gotten through the accountability series, which was, um, I would say a pretty hard series to go through, but I really felt led to talk about some of those things because we're just in a season right now where I think God is calling us to rise up and be who it is. He's calling us to be, be a little bit more bold and courageous in our actions and be more intentional in what it is we're doing in our everyday life, so that he can prepare us to walk in the authority that he's given us to impact the circles that we are meant to impact. The next series that we're going to do is going to be related to your Holy made life.
So in the beginning in the trailer, and in the episode one, I talked a lot about the Holy made life assessment, the wheel or the pie of life. And we talked about different sections of your life that are important. The first being physical, and these are not in any particular order, but physical, personal, financial, spiritual, your relationships in your profession. So when I think about a wheel, um, let's talk about it as a wheel of life, or I've talked about it as pieces of your pie, because it looks like a pie. When I think about that, one of the things that I help women with is to really get a good grasp on where they are in their wheel of life, where they are in each piece of their pie, so that they can start to take some easy action steps. Well, simple action steps to become a little bit more balanced in that wheel of life or in those pieces of your pie. The physical just as a reminder, is your health and your wellness. It includes your mental and emotional health. The next one, personal includes your self-care, your self-development and your mindset. The accountability series was a lot working in that personal piece of our pie, that gaining more personal awareness and self-awareness and what we can do differently to start to get some different outcomes in our life and to impact our relationships in our life. More positively and more powerfully. Uh, financial includes basically, are you satisfied with where you
Are? Are you creating
The legacy that you want to create? Are you able to help the person in the grocery that doesn't have her wallet with her or scans her debit card and it gets declined if you're so moved to do that, would you be able to do that? The other big piece with financial is your money mindset. So what are your beliefs about money? So those are the things that you would think about when you're thinking about whether or not you feel like your financial piece of your pie is balanced. Okay. Spiritual that is related to your relationship with God. Where are you with that? How much time do you spend in a day? And it's not about the number of minutes or number of hours, but it's about the quality of the time that you're spending with God. If you're like me, I talked about this in one of the episodes recently was that I like to bend time.
So I have time every morning before my feet hit the floor. I had time that I'm talking to God and praying and thanking him and showing him my gratefulness for who he is in my life and how he has shown up. And quite frankly, if my feet hit the floor before I've done that, I feel a sense of guilt because I feel like I need to do that to start my day off so that I am prepared for whatever it is that happens once my feet hit the ground. So the other things to think about here is okay, back to how you've been time. So I've been time, meaning that I use the time that I already have, or already in doing something else. And I integrate my spiritual relationship with God into that. So for example, while I'm in the bathroom, washing my hands, I'm saying prayers, I'm talking to God while I'm in my car.
There's a lot of times I just turn everything off and I pray or I sing worship songs. That's another form of how you can ignite that spiritual part of you. Okay. So relationships, this includes your motherhood, your, or your parenting, your relationship with your husband. So your marriage, it could be your relationship with your, um, friends or coworkers. For me. When I looked at this piece of the pie, when I was working full time as the chief nursing officer, I was working so many hours a week that I was neglecting a lot of my relationships in my life. And I felt very unbalanced. So I felt very confident in my relationships with my coworkers, the time I was spending in that professional piece of my pie, which we'll get to next. But when I looked at my motherhood and my relationship with my husband and relationship with myself, which is back to personal and physical, those things were not balanced.
They were not balanced. Now at each time or at, in during seasons, you're going to fluctuate in some of these areas. There are going to be certain times that your profession might need to require more time than your personal or your, you know, you might spend more time spiritually growing than you do with your profession. Okay. There's times that this is going to ebb and flow, but in general, in order for us to really feel the intention of the joy that we've been given, be joyful in all areas of our life and really, truly live our Holy made life. We should be able to take small, simple steps every day to pour into the pieces of these pies, the physical, personal financial, spiritual, relational, and professional. There are small things that we can in each of those areas every day, so that we can feel more fulfilled in all of these areas of our life.
And so that's what this next series of your Holy made life assessment is going to be about. We're going to talk about each of these individual pieces of your pie or pieces spokes to the wheel. And we are going to come up with actionable steps that you can take on a daily basis to fill in those areas that you feel like you are a little unbalanced in the last one profession is obviously your career or your business, or if you're a stay at home, mom, it is your duties that you do every day to keep your household okay. Or if you're homeschooling, what I would like to do is make sure that you guys are prepared for, as we go into these next several episodes to discuss each of these pieces. And I have a wholly made life assessment that you can take. It's very simple.
It's very short. It's just to get you thinking. And then as we walk through each, each section over the next few weeks, we will elaborate on that assessment. So all that is is it will be in the show notes, you can click the link and fill out the form and give you guys some tips and some action steps that you can take. And by the way, if you need a little bit more assistance in some of these areas, that's what I do. I help coach women creating that Holy made life that they deserve using that assessment. And then we come up with actionable steps and the accountability is the piece that is helpful for most people. I think when you have that accountability partner to help you, not only see things maybe from a different perspective, but have someone that you know is going to follow up with you, and you're going to be accountable to related to the action steps that you have created.
That just makes a world of difference. I personally have actually, I have a couple coaches, I'm in a couple of group coaching programs, and I have a personal coach working with over the past several months. And that is because we all need to pour into ourselves and we need someone to check us. We need someone to help us see things that we may not be able to see in our own life. We not, we may not be able to perceive things in a way that someone on the outside could look in and confirm us on affirming us on and also call us out on, in a loving way. That's what I do. And I am happy to help you. If you want to find out more about that, then you can email me at Angie, tonyRogers@gmail.com. And that also is in the show notes. But the next few weeks, we're going to be talking about each of these sections and we will work together to come up with some actionable items that you can focus on in order to get yourself where you're feeling a little bit more fulfilled in whatever areas you feel.
You're a little unbalanced. And when you think about a wheel, if you know that a couple of spokes on the wheel are not quite touching the outer wheel, then that wheel is going to not function correctly. So when we're unbalanced in areas of our life, then other places start to fall. For example, when I was working, my energy was spent at work and I remained on call 24 seven. So even when I wasn't at work, my energy and attention and focus was still at work. And so it was impossible for me to really pour into the other areas of my life. Now, all of them had some, some things I was doing in each of those areas, but there were areas that were really low when you look at, um, how much time and how much fruit I was seeing in each of those areas, physicals and example my physical and self-care personal.
Now, I always deal with self-awareness and mindset. I'm always doing that. I had a 45 minute commute. And so I consistently listened to books. I listened to the Bible on tape. I did all of those things to continue to fill my mind and to continue to challenge me, to grow professionally personally, spiritually. So I'm pretty good at that for mindset. And that should never stop by the way. I think it's Tony Robbins, who said, if you stop growing, you die. I believe that wholeheartedly. I'm an avid learner. I love learning. And I love learning things about myself because I know that that's the one thing in this world I can control. And if I learn more about myself and then I can work to change in order to impact the people around me, more positively, I love learning about the things that I can do better.
I'm just kind of, maybe I'm a little weird like that, but anyway, so that's something I'm good at, but my physical health, that's the last thing I typically do. I typically am the type of person who will put everybody else first at the cost of myself. So like exercise, I, that would be the last thing on my list that I would even think about because I don't have time to do that because I'm doing everything else for everybody else. You know, my health, I recently started making some changes in my health, uh, trying to make better choices, to be a little bit more clean. Um, you know, the things I put on my skin, I want it to be a little more clean and natural and pure, so small things like that. But the big things like exercising and making sure that I am not eating fast food at 10 o'clock at night when I'm driving home from work, those kinds of things fall when you are so unbalanced in another area.
So that's just an example. Those are things we're going to talk about in the upcoming series. I'm pretty excited about it because there's, I think that sometimes it feels so overwhelming, but there are small things, simple things that we can do in each of these areas in order to make a huge impact. So we're just going to walk through some of those things together. Okay. Next episode, we will start to go through each of these pieces of your pie, the physical, personal financial, spiritual relationships and profession. In each episode, we'll focus on one of those areas. Okay. So if you want to prepare yourself, make sure you hop over there and take that assessment just so you can have it. And then I'll explain how you can put it into a pie chart so that you can visualize where it is your balance, because I think sometimes visualizing it makes it a little bit more manageable and actually I'll have a bonus episode. That'll get posted this week that was already recorded. I actually refurbished it. It's just about timing in being in the right seasons of timing in using the things that happen to us in a way that reminds us, that it's all in God's perfect timing. And even when things happen to us, that seem to be negative or are hardships. It's all in timing and it's all in preparation. We're always being prepared for something coming. So there's a bonus episode that you'll see this week as well. All right, sisters, are we ready?
