This week, I sat down with Elite Coach & COO/Co-Founder Reagan, who is the founder of Consumed Coaching. Reagan is a powerhouse in the realm of Christian coaching. She began her journey in the industry at the tender age of 25 when she co-founded Consumed Coaching. By 27, she ascended to the role of COO, setting the strategic direction for what is now recognized as an industry-leading Christian Coaching Company. She is also the creator of The Ivey Collective Podcast, a space for Christian men and women to be encouraged, grow in business, go to greater depths in their relationship with the Lord, and live out their calling.  A proud graduate of The King's University, Reagan holds a degree in Christian Ministries, which she harnesses to bring depth, insight, and a faith-driven approach to coaching. Under her stewardship, Consumed Coaching has thrived, boasting a team of highly sought-after coaches who serve clients from coast to coast. Coach Reagan also co-authored the "No to Know" Course, helping women create boundaries biblically to live out their calling fully. Beyond her impressive business acumen, Reagan is a beacon in the speaking circuit. Known for her eloquent delivery and profound wisdom, she remains a highly sought-after speaker and coach, captivating audiences with her unique blend of professional expertise and spiritual grounding. She started by sharing her testimony at the age of seven to speaking in front of thousands of middle and high school students while still in high school. At that time, she was the youngest to be given an award from Youth For Christ in the Southeast at sixteen. She started young and believes that everyone's story is meant to be shared for the glory of God, no matter what age. Those fortunate enough to work with or learn from Reagan they quickly understand that she's not just a leader in Christian coaching; she's a trailblazer setting new standards for the industry.

Happy New Year Overcomers! I hope you are excited about this year and expectant for all the wonderful things God will do in and through you this year. Today, I’m here with a solo episode as I really felt compelled to start this first episode of the new year off with prayer. I could’ve talked about setting goals, creating a vision for the new year, new year resolutions, and all that other stuff, but prayer is more important (in my opinion). Pray will help us get the clarity and direction we need for our lives. It’ll help us to hear from God so that our goals actually align with His will. In this episode, I share: My word for 2024, its definition, why it applies to this year, and a reference scripture that goes along with it The importance of prioritizing God and His Word A powerful prayer for open doors, marriage restoration, reconciliation, open doors, God’s promises, healing, purposeful living, and more Decrees that you incorporate in your prayer time Pray Begins at [6:24]   Key Verses: Psalm 84: 11 Jeremiah 29:11 Romans 8:1 Romans 8:28 Matthew 19:6 Hebrews 11:6   Connect with Me: Instagram - iamdonnasherrie Facebook - iamdonnasherrie Check out my shop for more encouragement.
