Our 3 Step Process to Pivot with Purpose
Step #1
Get the Workbook
You’re worth the investment - in growth, in peace. In becoming who God created you to be. Our content will stay with you longer than that trendy book that ghosted you after Chapter 3!
Step #2
Do the Work
Light a candle, grab a pen, and let the Holy Spirit and highlighters do their thing. With Scripture, soul care, and brain-smart tools, you’ll dig deep—and come up whole.
Step #3
Be Transformed
Not overnight. Not perfectly. But, in His image. One page, one prayer, one brave pivot at a time. This isn’t just change—it’s growth with Jesus at the center.
Here’s What Becomes Possible When You Say Yes to A Pivot.
Clearer Vision
Understand what’s really changing—and what God is inviting you into next.
Steady Peace

A Transformational Experience You Can Return To
This isn’t a one-and-done workbook. It’s a companion you’ll come back to—again and again—as new layers of your story unfold.
➡️ Coaches Who’ve Also Lived the Pivot
 We are Marybeth Steigenga, Ph.D., and Terry Smith, M.Ed., chaplains, trauma informed life coaches, and purpose-driven women who’ve spent decades walking with others through life’s biggest transitions.
With over 40 years of combined experience in spiritual care, counseling, nonprofit leadership, and coaching, we’ve helped countless women navigate seasons of grief, identity shifts, reinvention, caregiving, and everything in between. But we’re not just professionals—we’re women who’ve lived these pivots ourselves.
We’ve lived the pivots too—through motherhood, ministry, loss, rebuilding, and starting over when life didn’t go according to plan.
That’s why we created the Prepare for the Shift Workbook—a grace-filled, Scripture-rooted, neuroscience backed tool to help you slow down, reflect, and take your next faithful step.
Because here’s the truth:
➡️ You don’t have to have it all figured out.
You just need a moment to learn new insights and understand how God designed you to manage change. Â
This workbook is that space.
We have designed it just for you. Â
What People Have To Say

"Between aging parents, an empty nest, and feeling like I’d lost myself, I was running on autopilot. This workbook gave me space to slow down, breathe, and hear from God again. It wasn’t just helpful—it was healing."
Lisa R.
“The journaling prompts were spot-on. The Scripture, the reflection questions, even the coloring pages—everything helped me process emotions I didn’t know I was carrying. I finally feel like I’m moving forward, not just stuck in limbo.”
Angela T.
“I’ve done devotionals. I’ve done therapy. But this was different. The mix of faith, brain science, practical tools, and real talk helped me make sense of the transition I’m in—and trust that God’s not done with me yet.”
