ENTERING THE GLORY ZONE

When we do something we’ve never done, we find something inside we never knew we had.

Before we move on to the final two stages of the Purpose Map, let’s do a recap of the first three stages. We started off in Discovery, learning about how The Rules enter our life and condition our thinking. I shared my elementary school experiences to help you connect with how The Rules you learned may have shaped your perception of yourself and where you believe you do or don’t belong.

Then there is the Talent Stage. Here we pick a lane to travel, a mountain to climb, and a path or career that becomes our identity. For me it was achievement—winning competitions, getting good grades, competing on television, and becoming a lawyer. I challenged you to think about what path-picking looked like for you.

Next, we stepped into The GAP together. This is a season of transition—a place known as the “in-between.” Most women I know are in (or about to enter) The GAP right now, but the goal is for it to become a space that equips you to shift—a canal that advances us into our calling, not a purgatory. My shift began with leaving my law firm, starting a sports agency, and trying (unsuccessfully) to make that mountain my new identity. Then betrayal forced me out of my Comfort Zone. In The GAP, we have to do the work of unlearning and letting go of whatever’s blocking our bigger.

As we escape from The GAP, shifting our way through the Growth Zone, we eventually cross over from here to there, and enter life in the Glory Zone. While the Comfort Zone, comprised of the Discovery and Talent stages, was about who we’ve been, the Glory Zone, comprised of the Gifts and Influence stages, is connected to who we are becoming . . . our calling and higher purpose.

You’re entering your where . . . your promised land, space, and place. You discover in the Glory Zone that you possess what you never fully knew you had. You’re brilliant in areas you didn’t know existed, and needed in ways you couldn’t have calculated. When you surrender your agenda and exchange ambition for anointing, there are no limits to what God will do through you. None.

In the Glory Zone, we learn how God has uniquely pre-equipped us to bless others and to change lives like only we can.
