Rhythms of REST

What if you're not actually stuck?


Hey there,

For years, I believed a lie that kept me stuck.

I thought I had no options. That I was trapped. After twelve years of church planting without the results I'd hoped for, I was burned out and disillusioned. The nagging thought wouldn't go away:

There must be more than this, right?

Then I pursued my coaching certification with Bridges Coaching, and everything shifted.

My coach didn't give me answers. She asked me a question that broke the illusion: What if you're not stuck? What if you've just made a choice—and you can make a different one?

That question changed everything.

I realized I wasn't powerless. I had agency. I could lead a church and start a business. The either-or narrative I'd been telling myself was false. I just needed someone who knew how to ask the right question at the right time.

Here's what I know now: the best coaches don't solve your problems. They help you see what's already there—the truth you've been avoiding, the choice you've been too afraid to make, the lie you've been believing.

And it usually starts with a single powerful question.

That's why I'm excited to share Cindy Scott's resource with you: 100+ Helpful Questions Every Leader Should Know. Cindy is the founder and leader of Bridges Coaching, where I did my coaching certification. These are the kinds of questions that spark "aha" moments—the ones that help people (including you) move from stuck to unstuck, from confusion to clarity.

When you download the list, you'll also get Cindy's weekly coaching insights. And if these questions resonate with you, coach training might be your next step. It was mine—and it didn't just give me tools. It gave me permission to rewrite the story I was telling myself.

You don't have to stay stuck in the narrative you've been telling yourself. Sometimes all it takes is the right question.

Here's to asking better questions,

P.S. Cindy recently wrote a blog post about my journey from pastoring to becoming a full-time executive coach. If you're curious about how coaching transformed my life and work, you can read it here. And seriously—grab those questions. They're gold.
