75+ Tools & Resources to Create a Life and Business You Love

Updated: Feb 8, 2023

Jump Start Your Transformation: Faith, Wellness, Marketing, Business and Travel Tools & Resources


Are you on your way to create a life and business you love? Did 2020 caused you to rethink well, everything?


Have you started creating in some areas, but you have no idea how to make money and build a business? I so relate to you. I was you. I have questioned myself more times than I can count on this journey of entrepreneurship.


I have served in 7+ industries, and held jobs with Victoria's Secret, ConocoPhillips, Fortune 500 companies, consulting and more. No matter how much external success I had, I felt empty and unfulfilled. Internally, life didn't feel how I imagined as a little girl.


I didn't feel aligned to my passion and purpose. I didn't know what it was when I first started as a full-time entrepreneur in 2011. I craved creating, transforming and inspiring in more ways than one.


All I know is we spend more time working than anything else. I wanted to wake up every day filled with passion and purpose for how I serve people on the planet. I desired to help others create a life and business they love with health, wealth and business.


After countless failures and self-doubt, I knew I had to walk the journey out in faith and #CREATEIT.

Like many of us, I had no roadmap, blueprint for success, or any extra money laying around.


Sure, I walked in with hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt from poor choices in spending and student loans, but if other people could create it, so could I.


One thing I have learned - I will always bet on me - and my God Given dreams, passion and purpose.


Fast Forward to now.

Originally written in 2021... and seven years into full-time entrepreneurship.


Last Update: January 2023






My name is Katrina Julia, I am a multi-passionate entrepreneur, athlete, and creator. I created an all-in-one lifestyle platform - FIT Life Creation - with experiences, influencers, and fundraisers.





Awards & Features have included the NBC Apprentice TV show (while I was a side-hustler),

NPC Top 5, & working with communities like Google, Airbnb, AICPA, Victoria's Secret, ConocoPhillips, PriceWaterhouseCoopers, and WeWork.


I have walked from Pain to Purpose and continue to. My transformation has included walking from Fear to Faith, Devaluing to Purity, Self Hate to Love, Corporate to Calling, Lies to Love, and Bondage to Freedom.


Along the way, I have lost over 55 lbs. and kept it off 7+ years. I am an avid wellness aficionado and alcohol-free 7+ years. Through the journey, I have transformed experiences in 7+ industries, countless companies that all served to increase my alignment to passion & purpose with our Creator's guidance.


My money mindset and actions have radically transformed into abundance and limitless opportunities with God's help. (love Proverbs!).


The pain, path, and purpose are limitlessly worth it. We've connected & created with a community of 100,000+ and continue to grow through our community, creators, and creatives globally online and live. In 2020, we ended up growing >300+ million in reach across communities!


I relate to what tips, tools, and tech will make it easier for me.


Maybe you are starting over or you are done with wasting your time on things you don't love?


Get clear on why you want to create a life and business you love, and what you want to start.


Once you are clear on that, there are limitless tools to help you create a life and business you love that I am sharing in wellness, business, travel, and more. This list is years in the making that I have put together.


Whether you are a side hustler, entrepreneur, firm, and/or brand, these tools will help you create a life and business you love. You will see clearly how they help you automate and delegate more than you ever imagined with your online business.



(And if you don’t yet have that clarity, we can help you #CREATEIT for sure!


Whether its our
14 Day Challenge,

you will love creating with us!

Like anything else, some of these tools and resources will resonate with you and some won't.

I'm sharing what has helped me and our community in countless ways.


*These are all tools I have either used in the past or use ongoing all the time. Most of the tools, I have used for 7+ years. You will find some links are referral links and/our own community resources too!





01

Faith Focus

One thing I have learned is with firm faith and mindset, everything changes. These are the resources that have helped me strengthen from the inside out. I know they will help you too!


  • Lifeway: Your trusted source for Bible Studies, Books, and Bibles. I've done countless studies written by Beth Moore, Priscilla Shirer, and Jackie Hill Perry.


  • Mount Paran Church Giving the world hope in Christ. Dr. David Cooper shares messages like The Cradle, the Cross and Crown, Bible Study Ministries, Women Events with Barbie Cooper and her team, Mens Events, Children Ministries, and more! When I first moved to Atlanta in 2000-2003, this was my home church and I served in middle school ministry.


  • Passion City Church Pastor Louie Giglio and Shelley Giglio have a heart for the church showing it throughout Atlanta, services, Passion City Grove, Passion City Conference. I learned about Passion City through Jessica, a friend in wellness who invited me to the Grove - a gathering for women in Atlanta. The love, joy, and value shown to us all drew me in, and I have since attended 10+ Groves + served, attend live service sometimes at the 5pm, and served at Passion City Conference.


  • Transformation Church Pastor Michael Todd and Natalie Todd lead the church to Represent God to the lost and found for transformation in Christ. I first discovered Transformation Church in 2018 via the Crazy Faith Series. Each and every message and series has radically transformed me especially Crazy Faith and Relationship Goals. It is my online home church, I serve on the Transformation Live Team on YouTube, and am a part of B-Groups (Belong).


  • Prayer Journal: 52 Weeks of Scripture, Devotions, and Prayer. I did the journal 2020-2021.


  • LIIV Atlanta Founders Mayo and Kai Sowell started A Church From Atlanta, For Atlanta in 2022. I love their acronym Love, Integrity, Influence, and Victory. I learned about them via Leticia Gardner on Instagram. I attended a social at Alon Bakery in Fall 2022 and immediately felt so welcome in every way. When I visited the Christmas Experience, I felt so seen, known and heard in the natural with everyone remembering and recognizing me despite not going to a service or event since the social.




Rio Celeste Costa Rica

Massive leaps of faith in my journey in every area of life. Years of full-time travel starting with travel to Costa Rica is one of many leaps!

Money Matters

My money mindset, intention and actions have radically transformed over the past 5+ years as well. For years, I consistently helped 7+ industries generate 6-8 figures regularly both in creating opportunities, as well as savings with fraud, waste, and abuse. At the same time, I have experienced scarcity, poverty, entitlement, greed, debt, materialism in my own wealth.
