Laurie Delk - author, speaker, coach, trainer

Laurie's life journey is a testament to unwavering faith, entrepreneurial spirit, and the transformative power of resilience. Rooted in a lifelong foundation of Christian values, instilled from her upbringing and a pivotal move from Texas to Middle Tennessee in 1986, Laurie embarked on a path marked by both professional achievement and personal devotion.

In 1993, driven by a profound desire to nurture her growing family, Laurie made a courageous decision to transition from a decade-long, successful career as an accountant at a Fortune 500 company. This pivotal moment, coinciding with her husband's aspiration to pursue his calling in law enforcement, became a catalyst for a life dedicated to purpose and service. Through prayerful consideration, they embraced both paths, demonstrating a commitment to faith-led action.

God has uniquely privileged Laurie to serve Him in numerous capacities over the past few decades. Her entrepreneurial journey began with the inception of her web & graphics, branding, marketing, and design company. Recognizing her talents as gifts to be shared, she pledged to utilize her skills for divine purpose. This commitment manifested in the creation of over a thousand websites, marketing materials, training platforms, and courses for pastors, churches, evangelists, missionaries, colleges, and a diverse range of business clients. Her expertise extended to comprehensive rebranding initiatives, empowering organizations to articulate their vision with clarity and impact.

Beyond her business acumen, Laurie is a prolific author, having penned the best-selling books "Keep Those Clients" and "We All Have Choices," and co-founded the transformative "Gratitude Girls - 100 Day Gratitude Journal Challenge." She has also contributed her insights to three additional publications. As a sought-after motivational speaker and corporate sales trainer, Laurie inspires audiences with her authentic voice and empowering message, often called upon for special speaking engagements around the world. Her dedication to education is further evidenced by her five years of teaching at her children's Christian school and her subsequent decision to homeschool them, allowing her to balance her growing speaking career with her commitment to family.

Her mission to empower women to embrace their God-given potential has taken her across the globe, where she shares her wisdom and encouragement with diverse audiences. Laurie's life, however, has not been without profound challenges. In 2013, she experienced the devastating loss of her children's father in a tragic accident, navigating the complexities of grief while raising her four children, then aged 25, 18, 16, and 12.

Believing in God's guidance for her life, Laurie remarried in April 2020 to Kevin Radecki, following their meeting in December 2019. Laurie prayed for exactly what she wanted in a husband and God showed Himself strong in giving her more than she asked in a God-fearing and God-loving husband.

Laurie's unique experiences over the past few decades provide special insight and encouragement for those who take her courses. Her story is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the transformative power of faith, and the profound impact of living a life dedicated to purpose and service. Her journey inspires others to embrace their own unique paths, to overcome adversity with grace, and to live with unwavering gratitude and purpose.

Made from the land

Someone told us this was the best burger they had ever eaten… and honestly, they may be right! 🍔🔥

We stopped by Made From The Land in Franklin and wow… fresh ingredients, perfectly cooked burger, amazing fries, and that homemade flavor you can immediately tell is different. The kind of meal where you take the first bite and instantly understand why people keep talking about it.

The burger was juicy, flavorful, stacked just right, and those fries were crisp on the outside, soft inside — exactly how they should be. Sometimes simple food done exceptionally well really is hard to beat. 👏✨

If you are local or passing through Franklin, this one is definitely worth trying. Have you eaten here yet? If so, what did you order?

Sam Kendall’s Camden, SC

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Cute little stop right off the highway! 🚗✨

Stopped into Sam Kennedy’s and loved the cozy, welcoming vibe right away. The food was really good — and let me just say… the broccoli cheese bites were AMAZING 🤩🥦🧀 (seriously, don’t skip those!). The fries made me smile because the portion felt a little short haha 😄🍟 — but they were still tasty!

Service was a bit slow, but they were clearly busy, and our server stayed kind, attentive, and did a great job keeping everything together. I always appreciate great attitudes even when things get hectic 👏💛

Overall, such a cute place with good food and a fun atmosphere — definitely a great stop when you’re traveling through. We’ll be back!

Hyatt Centric Atlanta

🌟 #HotelReview | Hyatt Centric Midtown Atlanta 🌟

If you’re heading to Atlanta and want a place that blends comfort, style, and an unbeatable view… this is it! ✨

From the moment we walked in, this hotel felt fresh, modern, and thoughtfully designed. The room was spacious, spotless, and calming — light wood floors, soft lighting, and a contemporary layout that made it feel more like a chic apartment than a typical hotel room. The bathroom was beautifully done with a bright LED mirror and a gorgeous tile shower. Everything felt clean, new, and intentionally curated.

But the real highlight?

🌃 The rooftop views.

Absolutely breathtaking. Panoramic scenes of the Atlanta skyline, glowing buildings, and the energy of the city below — all from a cozy, relaxing rooftop space. It truly made the stay memorable.

We had plenty of room to unpack and unwind, great closet space, comfortable seating, and a bed that practically guaranteed a great night’s sleep after a long travel day. Staff were friendly and welcoming, and the overall vibe of the hotel was uplifting, safe, and peaceful.

If you love stylish spaces, city views, and a relaxing atmosphere after a busy day, I highly recommend the Hyatt Centric Atlanta. We’ll definitely be back! 💛✨

Blind Tiger – Asheville, NC

⭐⭐⭐⭐ Blind Tiger Asheville – Beautiful, Cozy, & Unique Stay (With a Few Things to Know Before You Go)

travelreview #Asheville #BlindTiger

We had a surprisingly comfortable and peaceful stay at the Blind Tiger in Asheville! After driving 6 hours through traffic and construction, we arrived a little after 7pm — tired, hungry, and so ready to relax. The property has a charming, historic feel, and once we got settled in, the room itself was super cozy, quiet, stylish, and the bed was amazingly comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and beautiful, and the whole space felt clean, inviting, and thoughtfully decorated.

A couple of things future guests may want to know ahead of time:
Because we arrived after dark, it was difficult to spot the small signs showing where to park. We hadn’t received instructions before our drive (they were emailed just a few hours prior while we were on the road), so we weren’t aware of how to access the property. After checking in, we had to walk back down to the car, up a hill, through a stone path, and then up two flights of stairs to reach our room. My husband has a knee issue, so carrying luggage that far and uphill in the dark would’ve been a struggle — thankfully we had small backpacks we could manage.

Once inside, though, everything shifted in the best way. The house was quiet, other guests were already tucked in, and the space felt warm and relaxing. The room itself was spacious and beautifully designed, the bed was beyond comfortable, and we truly slept so well after a long day of travel. The staff member we met at check-in was very kind and welcoming too.

Overall, this is a lovely, historic place with tons of character — just be aware of the parking, stairs, and arrival setup if mobility or late check-ins are a concern. Once you’re in and settled, it’s a wonderfully cozy and restful stay! 💛✨
