Who's Spotting You? The Power of a Strong Community

I used to be a cheerleader back in elementary school. I didn’t cheer for long, but just roll with me for the sake of this story. 😂

One memory that’s stuck with me is when we had to build a pyramid. There was always someone chosen to go up top, and it looked so cool—but what made it possible wasn’t just the one flying in the air. There were always at least two people holding her up and another behind her, ready to spot her—just in case she slipped.

That idea still sticks with me today. Do you have spotters in your life?

We all need those people—friends who can catch us, lift us, support us, and hold us up when we can’t do it on our own. Spotters who aren’t afraid to correct us when needed and will speak life when we’re feeling low.

It reminds me of the story in Mark 2:1-12 about the paraplegic whose friends literally carried him to Jesus. When they couldn’t get through the crowd, they climbed on the roof, tore a hole in it, and lowered their friend down so he could be healed. Y’all—those were some real spotters! 🙌🏽

Do you have that kind of community around you? Friends who pray for you, encourage you, carry you when life gets heavy, and keep you spiritually and emotionally lifted?

Proverbs 18:24 (MSG) says, “Friends come and friends go, but a true friend sticks by you like family.” Your circle matters.

If you’re looking for that kind of community—uplifting, faith-filled, purpose-driven women—you need to be at the Business Brunch Conference. It’s not just another event. It’s a space where women come together to grow, lead, and pour into one another.

Come find your spotters. Come be one, too.
