    The Man Behind the Responsibilities Matters | Father's Day Special

    In collaboration with Beard Connecx

    This special episode of The Striving Butterfly is dedicated to the men who carry so much.

    The fathers.
    The sons.
    The brothers.
    The husbands.
    The providers.
    The protectors.

    So often, men are celebrated for what they do while silently carrying pressures that nobody sees.

    In this Father's Day collaboration with Beard Connect, we explore the everyday pressures men face, the importance of wellbeing, identity beyond responsibility, and the reminder that your worth is not found in what you provide.

    Featuring 10 affirmations for men, encouragement, scripture, and honest conversation, this episode is a reminder that strength and vulnerability can exist together.

    Because the man behind the responsibilities matters.

    Scriptures:
    • Matthew 11:28
    • Joshua 1:9

    If this episode encouraged you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a man who needs this reminder today.

    Consistency & Patience: Trust the Process

    It's easy to feel discouraged when it looks like everyone around you is moving faster, achieving more, or reaching milestones you've been praying for.

    But someone else's quick win doesn't mean you're behind.

    Someone else's success doesn't mean you've failed.

    And someone else's harvest doesn't mean your seed isn't growing.

    In this week's episode of The Striving Butterfly, we're talking about consistency, patience, trusting God's timing, and resisting the temptation to compare your journey to someone else's.

    This episode includes 10 affirmations designed to help you stay focused, remain faithful, and continue showing up even when the results aren't immediate.

    Scripture:

    Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

    Galatians 6:9

    This episode is for anyone rebuilding, healing, waiting, trusting, or simply trying to keep going one day at a time.

    Let’s challenge the belief that you must feel ready before you begin.

    In this episode, I explore how readiness is often a by-product of motion, not a starting line. Through honest reflections on delaying projects, over-preparing, and waiting for clarity, I unpack how fear can dress up as preparation and keep us stuck longer than necessary.

    As seasons change, so does capacity. Showing up today may look different from what it used to and that’s not failure, it’s growth.

    I talk about:

    calling out readiness as a mythredefining showing up in new seasonssmall steps as right-sized commitmentsfaith, obedience, and small beginningsone honest step to take this week

    “Do not despise small beginnings.” - Zechariah 4:10

    You don’t have to arrive polished. You can begin as you are.

    If this episode resonated, share it with someone who needs permission to start again.

    The Striving Butterfly Podcast is a space for honest conversations about growth, healing, faith, identity, and becoming — without the pressure to perform.

Today I show up whole""My voice matters. My story carries healing""I embrace who I'm becoming and release who I no longer need to be""I don't chase peace, quiet or stillness, I host it""The doors God opens for me don't need permission to stay open""Even in silence, I am being strengthened. Quiet doesn't mean quitting""I am both the answered prayer and the one who prayed it"

    These affirmations address the struggles we face on our growth journeys—feeling behind, chasing validation, and struggling to embrace our authentic selves. Coleen offers listeners permission to stand firmly in their inherent value while gracefully evolving into their next chapter.

    Be your own cheerleader. Don't forget to clap for yourself, celebrate yourself, love on yourself and do it for yourself.

    In this episode of Striving Butterfly, we explore the powerful difference between boundaries and protecting your capacity — and how learning to honour both can bring lasting clarity and direction in your life.

    From training for the London Marathon, preparing for a trip to Africa, and planning the ORE Women’s Conference, I’ve learned that just having boundaries isn’t enough. You also need to be honest about what you actually have to give.

    We cover:

    What boundaries and capacity really areHow to manage both without guilt5 practical steps to apply todayWhy slowing down isn’t weakness — it’s wisdomA scriptural foundation to help you stay rooted and clear

    Scripture: Proverbs 4:23 – “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.”
