Sacrifice: Why Letting Go Is Often the First Step to Becoming Who You’re Meant to Be

Sacrifice is not about losing something; it’s about making room for something better. To sacrifice means to give up what feels familiar, comfortable, or safe so you can grow into what God is calling you to become. Sometimes the sacrifice is a habit, a mindset, a relationship, or even an old version of yourself. God often asks for sacrifice when staying the same is no longer helping you move forward. Sacrifice is the bridge between where you are and where God wants to take you.

A sacrifice usually comes when life feels uncomfortable or confusing. You may feel stuck, restless, or unsure of who you really are. That’s often when God steps in and asks you to release something so He can do something new. One feeling many people experience when they are called to sacrifice is fear—fear of change, fear of the unknown, or fear of losing control. But fear doesn’t mean stop. It often means growth is close. God asks for sacrifice because He sees the full picture and knows what you need to let go of so you can thrive.

The Bible reminds us in Romans 12:1, “Offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God, this is your true and proper worship.” Sacrifice is an act of trust. It’s saying, “God, I believe Your plan is better than my comfort.” When you make the sacrifice God is asking you to make, clarity starts to replace confusion. Confidence begins to grow. You start to feel more connected to who you truly are and the life you’re meant to live.

Avoiding sacrifice often keeps people feeling lost, unsure, and disconnected from themselves. Life starts to feel like it’s just happening to them instead of being created with intention. But when sacrifice is embraced, transformation begins on the inside first. Your thinking changes. Your confidence grows. You stop reacting to life and start intentionally co-creating it with God. Sacrifice opens the door to real change because it requires both faith and action.

I help people feel sure of themselves and live on purpose by teaching them how to change the way they think and partner with God to build the life they truly want.

From Delulu to Doable: How to Drop Unrealistic Expectations and Actually Make Progress…

Ever felt like you should have your whole life figured out by now? Like, you should already have the dream career, perfect body, Pinterest-worthy home, and the ability to wake up at 5 AM for meditation, journaling, and a green smoothie—every single day? Yeah, that’s an unrealistic expectation. Unrealistic expectations trick us into believing we should be superhuman, and when reality doesn’t match up, we’re left feeling like we’ve failed. The problem isn’t you—it’s the impossible standards that leave you exhausted, frustrated and stuck in a cycle of disappointment.


One common belief that leads to setting unrealistic expectations is thinking, “If I just try harder, I can make everything perfect.” But perfection isn’t real, and trying harder won’t magically create an ideal life overnight. Instead, it creates stress, self-doubt, and burnout. The truth is, success (and happiness) comes from consistency, not perfection. So, what’s the solution? Start by setting realistic expectations. Break big goals into small, achievable steps, and celebrate progress instead of perfection. Life isn’t about getting everything right—it’s about growing and learning along the way.

Now, it’s time for a little self-reflection! Grab a journal and write about where you’ve been setting unrealistic expectations for yourself. What impossible standards have been holding you back? Once you’ve uncovered them, pick one small, doable step toward your goal—something simple, like dedicating 10 minutes to a new habit instead of an hour. The key is action, not overwhelm! Let go of the pressure and start embracing progress over perfection.
