In this replay of an Instagram Live from her Minneapolis hotel room, Rachel reflects before speaking to the Minnesota Gophers football team for the ninth year in a row. From NFL meeting notes to God-given middle-of-the-night inspiration, she shares the importance of caring for yourself before you pour into others, discovering your “soul’s superpower,” and never dying with your flowers. You’ll hear stories of small acts that lit up strangers, miracles that defy explanation, and why being a person of your word can change lives—including your own. This episode is part pep talk, part heart check, and 100% encouragement to use your gifts right where you are.
