Ever found yourself fighting against a calling that feels too big, too demanding, too disruptive to your carefully constructed life? Coco Collier knows this tension intimately. After battling uterine cancer and finally settling into a peaceful rhythm, she found herself repeatedly approached by strangers sharing stories of their darkest moments – divine appointments that couldn't be dismissed as coincidence.
"I was throwing a temper tantrum and telling God no, pick anybody but me," Coco confesses with disarming honesty. Yet these encounters only intensified until she surrendered to the vision that would become Illumina of Hope Foundation, a nonprofit creating transformative retreats for women in crisis.
The results have been nothing short of miraculous. From mothers of special needs children who haven't had a break in 15 years to women leaders seeking deeper connections, Lumina's retreats create sacred spaces where walls come down and authentic healing begins. One exhausted mother took four naps in a single day – finally experiencing the rest she desperately needed in a community that understood her struggles.
Coco's approach to ministry is refreshingly practical. She shares her system of "buckets" for managing multiple passions, her practice of reading her body's signals, and her commitment to pushing through what she calls "fear bubbles" – those moments of terror before breakthrough. "Once I pop through that fear bubble, something magnetic happens... it's transformational," she explains, encouraging listeners to embrace bold confidence in divine guidance.
Whether planning mission trips to Guatemala or teaching women to leverage technology for their businesses, Coco embodies her advice: "Being bold brings bountiful blessings." Her journey reminds us that sometimes our greatest impact comes not from our carefully laid plans, but from saying yes when God interrupts them with something better.
