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.

Entryway for our home

Things are coming together, and we are starting to make this house look and feel more like a home!! We’ve been reluctant to put anything in the walls till we get furniture in place, so we can decide things….

He finished refinishing and painting this cabinet we decided is perfect by this little nook by our front door.

In that, we decided that he will put some things he loves and wants to keep from his late wife, and the other half I will put some things I love and want yo keep from my late husband…..it’s such a perfect memory spot for us, and we both cherish that part of our lives.

This turquoise vase I got from #HomeGoods and the flowers I picked for it from #HobbyLobby tie in elegantly on top of the chest.

Then to top it off so perfectly is this picture w flowers similar to what’s in the vase and says “The Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace” Numbers 6:26 is exactly the verse we needed for that area to cherish. 💙

Roasted chicken w cotija from Green Chef

#RoastedChickenWithCotija

Our 1st meal out of our 2nd box from #GreenChef my hysband has been really loving these meals!!! I love that it’s still all #organic and I still have to cook n prepare it all but not having to go to the grocery store, wear a mask, look for the ingredients etc! Lol

We both really liked this one, but I could tell it wasn’t going to be enough, so the broth from the chicken I took and used to mix in w some mashed potatoes 🥔 so of course then it made it not #keto anymore, but it was still healthy overall

Chicken breasts in skillet w oil salt n pepper, then add spiced vegetable broth, add 2TBS butter when it’s close to done.

Another skillet add diced red cabbage, onions, garlic, cumin, salt n pepper. Drizzle w cilantro cider vinaigrette.
