Love Sabbatical from 2/15-2/28
Kepties,
Every year from February 15th through February 28th, I step into what I call my Love Sabbatical… and I want you to understand why this practice exists, where it comes from, and why it matters.
When my husband and I chose our wedding date, it landed exactly seven days after Valentine’s Day. We took that as confirmation that once the world finishes celebrating love publicly, we would intentionally celebrate love privately. Every year, we set aside this time to slow down, reconnect spiritually, emotionally, and physically, and simply enjoy our marriage and family without the normal pull of business, coaching, and public visibility.
This is one of the ways I live what I teach.
My work is rooted in self-governance and alignment with God’s principles of priority. Scripture consistently models order… God first, family next, and purpose flowing from that alignment. This sabbatical is how I honor that structure in real life. It allows me to pour into my marriage, celebrate another year of covenant, and refill so I can continue guiding women from overflow instead of depletion.
During these two weeks, I will not be actively coaching, posting live, or responding in real time. This is an annual practice, and it is something I intend to continue modeling for as long as I lead women on their love journeys.
Now… that does not mean your growth pauses.
There is more than enough inside this Academy to keep you moving forward in your journey, and I want to strongly encourage you to use this time intentionally.
First, I invite every Keptie to complete the Keptie Lens Activation. This is the newest course added to the classroom, and going forward, all new Kepties will begin here. Before transformation can happen, you must first identify how you have been seeing love, relationships, and yourself… and how those lenses have shaped your decisions. This five-day activation is designed to help you recognize those patterns and begin making aligned shifts into self-governance and feminine stewardship.
It is simple, intentional, and flexible. You can complete it at your own pace and at your convenience, but it will create clarity that makes every other lesson land deeper.
This is also a beautiful time to:
• Get caught up on unfinished coursework
• Revisit previous Sounds About Wife episodes inside the Academy
• Watch or rewatch Sounds About Wife, Coaching Gems, and topic-based playlists on YouTube (dating, preparation, and marriage development content are all organized there)
• Journal and reflect on how your identity is shifting as you continue becoming more anchored
Use this time as your own alignment season. Growth does not require urgency. It requires consistency and intentional reflection. Please support and interact with eachother here also!
I will still have scheduled public content airing while I am away, and Sounds About Wife will continue releasing episodes, just pre-recorded. When I return, I will reconnect, respond, and continue guiding you forward.
Thank you for allowing me to model what it looks like to live in alignment with the values we talk about here. My marriage is one of the places where I practice everything I teach you… and protecting it is part of protecting the integrity of this work.
I am excited to see what clarity, reflection, and growth unfolds for you during this time.
Keep pouring into yourself. Keep anchoring into your Keptie identity.
Keep it Kept 🗝️🫶🏽
