Obedience, Alignment, and the Architects of Change

Affirmation: Obedience births alignment. Trust the nudge.

There was no budget. Let me start there.

No grand sponsor, no overflowing account. Just a deep knowing: this must happen.

The launch of the Architects of Change documentary was more than an event—it was a calling. A whisper from the Most High that said, share these stories. And so, I listened.

I wrote to a few corporate companies. Some responded, some didn’t. I wasn’t discouraged. I was determined. And then, on a quiet Saturday morning walk along the beach—my usual rhythm—her name came to me: Tisha Jack, founder of TCJ Events.

Now, I hadn’t spoken to Tisha in years. A brief hello two years ago, nothing more. But the nudge was clear: Call her.

So I did.

She gave me a quote—beautiful, but beyond what we could pull together. I was honest. She was gracious.

Her words: “Have no fear. We will make it happen.”

And happen it did.

The venue was transformed.

The ambience—warm, intentional, sacred.

Everything clicked.

The panel discussion with the  young women of the NiNa program featured in the documentary was raw and real. Emma, in particular, brought the room to life—articulate, funny, deeply human. There was laughter, tears, nods of recognition.

I stood in the back for a moment, just watching.

Grateful.

Proud.

Relieved.

We did it.

We shared these stories with the world.

We honored the  young women who are building, shifting, and reshaping our their lives despite the challenges.

And the biggest lesson of the evening?

Obedience.

To the call.

To the nudge.

To the whisper that says, trust.

Sometimes, we just have to surrender.

To the Most High.

To the process.

To the support we didn’t know we needed.

This wasn’t just a launch.

It was a reminder:

When we move with intention, when we ask for help, when we stay rooted in purpose—miracles unfold.

Peace and Blessings


Rooted in Obedience: A Companion Reflection

Module: Courage & Belonging

Sometimes courage looks like a phone call.

Sometimes belonging begins with a whisper on a beach walk.

Sometimes joy arrives in the form of a transformed venue, a panel of truth-telling women, and a room full of resonance.
