  • Coaches Corner by Ellie West: The Power of Forgiveness

    Aug 23, 2023

    Forgiveness is a constant part of our lives. Often, the hardest people to forgive are the ones closest to us - family members, friends, or loved ones. It is not wrong to feel anger or bitterness in our pain, especially if trust has been broken or we’ve been wronged. But letting anger and resentment take root is like poison to our souls. I think about forgiveness often, as an example, when something triggers an emotion, feeling, or past experience. At that moment, I have to have a heart-to-heart talk with myself. I ask, “What hinders me...

    Aug 9, 2023

    Shine Your Light, Shine On, Shine Bright, and Let Your Light Shine are all buzzwords in recent years. These are such great little reminders to be the bright light innate within each of us. No matter how dark your world may seem, your emotional situation, your family situation, your financial situation, or your health situation, you don’t have to be afraid of the dark. Be encouraged in times of uncertainty, discouragement, or when hope seems dim. In Genesis 1:3 Then, God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. Not only did the...

  • Coaches Corner: A Diamond in the Rough

    Ellie West, Contributing Writer|Aug 2, 2023

    Did you know diamonds are fascinating gems that form deep within the Earth's mantle under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions, taking millions of years to develop? Not all diamonds make it to the Earth's surface, as some remain trapped in the mantle due to geological processes. However, those that reach the surface become the valuable and cherished gemstones we adore today. When mined and brought to the Earth's surface, diamonds undergo a meticulous process of polishing or cutting. This skilled and intricate procedure transforms them...

    Ellie West, Contributing Writer|Jul 26, 2023

    Persevering against all odds is an extraordinary display of strength and determination. It means facing countless obstacles, setbacks, and failures yet refusing to give up or be defeated.

  • Coaches Corner by Ellie West: Our Values

    Jul 19, 2023

    Have you ever taken a moment to reflect on the values that guide your life and where they come from? Recently, I had the opportunity to participate in a practice session centered around NLP as I near the completion of my Masters’s Certification. During this session, a process was introduced to help us define our values, and it was truly enlightening. As I listed my top ten values and went through the process, I discovered something fascinating - some of my values shifted. Even though my values remained fairly congruent, I realized that our va...

  • Coaches Corner by Ellie West: An Act of Kindness

    Jul 12, 2023

    Summer has many activities, and our days seem to slip away. This past week I had my granddaughters for Nana camp. It was a week of learning, growing, and exploring. It was a week when I had to think about the positive impact I wanted to instill in them. We began the first day of Nana camp with a craft. I googled some fun ideas and found a YouTube tutorial on string art. It would be a fun and fairly easy project, and as it turns out, they loved the activity. As we ventured into day two of Nana’s camp, we had a day in Helena where they would...

  • Coaches Corner: A Message of Hope amongst the Thorns

    Ellie West, For the Three Forks Voice|Jun 14, 2023

    A thorn in the flesh is sometimes described as a persistent problem we can't seem to resolve. It can be anything - a relationship, persecution, an experience, a trauma, or a job we are stuck in. Where did the phrase, a thorn in the flesh" originate that is often used in our modern-day lives? It originated in the New Testament writings of Paul. His weaknesses, insults, hardships, and all the earthly discomforts he experienced made him look to God for strength. When I think about a "thorn," I think about prickly and razor-sharp points. We have a...

  • Coaches Corner by Ellie West: What brings you 'Joy'

    Jun 7, 2023

    What brings you joy seems to be a simple enough question, but when was the last time you considered your level of joy? Some may find that they are out of balance and wondering how to fix it. Although we all strive to be more positive, few of us know how to bring more pleasure into our lives while pushing away negative thoughts and worries about how things should go. Life happens, and we sometimes fall into the trap that a happy life means every day must be perfect. For most people and me, that joy you feel deep inside lies within the tiny...
