In this deeply personal and Spirit-led episode, Dr. Leelo Bush shares how a quiet moment of surrender led to a global movement—and how the same can happen for you. If you’ve ever hesitated because you didn’t feel “ready” to step into coaching, ministry, or healing work, this message will break chains. You’ll be reminded that God doesn’t need you to be perfect—He needs you to be willing. Through powerful scripture, bold truth, and a heartfelt challenge, you’ll discover why your story, your scars, and your “yes” might be the answer to someone else’s prayer.
Why readiness is not required, but willingness is.
How God uses your scars as proof of transformation.
What to do when you feel unqualified or insecure.
The truth behind spiritual formation through life experience.
A scriptural foundation for why you are called right now.
How to silence the enemy’s lies about timing and qualification.
“You’ve survived what someone else is still drowning in.”
2 Corinthians 1:4 — “He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others.”
Philippians 1:6 — “He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion.”

Christian Coaching School – Season 3, Episode 010
Hosted by Dr. Leelo Bush
It was spring of 1990, in Mount Washington, Kentucky, where I lived at that time. I was standing at the altar. No microphone, no audience. Just me and the Lord. And I said one simple, surrendered prayer:
“God, use me in whatever humble way You want.”
That was it. I didn’t feel spectacular. I didn’t feel qualified. But I meant every word.
And that moment, quiet as it was, marked the beginning of a worldwide movement I never could have imagined. Today, thousands have been trained. Countless lives have been changed. And it all began—not with a strategy, but with a willing heart.
So if you’re waiting for a magical moment where you feel ready… let me stop you right there. It’s not about feeling ready. It’s about being willing. You’re going to hear some truth today that might just break the chains you’ve been dragging around for a few years. Let’s get into it.
