How Dr. Cindy Trimm Changed My Life
My journey with Dr. Cindy Trimm began when the deacons and elders at my church recommended her work. The first book I read was "Commanding Your Morning," which completely transformed my perspective. This book became so instrumental in my growth that I've purchased dozens of copies over the years to share with everyone I meet.
Dr. Trimm's approach to starting each day with purpose resonated deeply with me. For 21 consecutive days, I recited the prayers from "Commanding Your Morning," setting the tone for my days with intentionality. She taught me how to pray over my day with purpose, command my morning through powerful declarations, and activate the Word in my daily life. Most importantly, she showed me how to call things into existence before they appeared, which helped build my faith and confidence tremendously.
One of the most powerful concepts Dr. Trimm introduced me to was writing a vision for my life. She encouraged me to develop a 20-year plan and taught me how to "write the vision and make it plain" so that I could run with it. This scriptural foundation helped me see beyond my current circumstances and pursue my goals with clarity and determination.
As a firstborn daughter to high-achieving parents, I already had a commitment to excellence. However, Dr. Trimm helped me overcome self-limiting beliefs and taught me to identify and leverage my strengths while acknowledging but not being defined by my weaknesses. She encouraged me to conduct a personal SWOT analysis to truly understand my capabilities and see possibilities beyond my perceived limitations. This revelation was transformative—she showed me that despite obstacles, weaknesses, limitations, or lack of experience, I could still pursue my dreams while continuously building capacity.
While my parents gave me the foundation to be in the Word, Dr. Trimm encouraged me to activate the Word regardless of what I could see in the natural realm. She became an actual physical representation of God's goodness and demonstrated that as a woman of God and daughter of the King, all things are possible to those who believe. Because I believed in the same God that she believed in and served the same God that she served, it was only natural for me to believe that all things would work in my favour too; because I had seen what God had done for her and knew He would surely do it for me if I believed.
This year has been declared the "Year of Dominion," and Dr. Trimm's teachings on how to walk in dominion have been especially relevant for me. As a woman navigating typically male-dominated spaces, her example has been invaluable. She has proven that with faith and determination, barriers can be overcome.
If you're looking to become a trailblazer in your industry, especially as a woman in male-dominated spaces, I strongly recommend immersing yourself in Dr. Trimm's teachings. Read all of her books, watch her YouTube videos, and subscribe to Empower TV for direct access to her content. Her annual conference "Your Strong" in Atlanta each December is also a must-attend event. It's the perfect way to start your year right, surrounded by amazing people and speakers with prophetic anointing who can speak life over you and help you foresee what's coming.
Dr. Trimm is truly a visionary who has advised presidents and political leaders worldwide. She predicted technological advancements before they became reality, including voice-activated assistants like Alexa and Siri. She stands at the forefront of change and innovation as a pioneer and trailblazer—she is one of one.
As we celebrate Women's Month 2025, I want to salute Dr. Cindy Trimm. She is truly part of women's history, writing her legacy in real time. Her impact on my life and countless others makes her worthy of recognition as an extraordinary woman of influence who continues to shape the world through her ministry and wisdom.
