The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas

He is seldom early, never late, and always right on time—and Proverbs 31 explains why preparation changes everything.This episode breaks down ancient biblical wisdom that connects preparation, opportunity, confidence, and purpose—showing how integrity and hard work position you for perfect timing.My mom used to tell me, “Look, I don’t have all this figured out—but I’m committed to figuring it out with integrity.” That truth has followed me my entire life.There’s an ancient wisdom that perfectly captures this idea: seldom early, never late, always right on time.Seldom early means you weren’t prepared yet.Never late means the opportunity was designed specifically for you.Always right on time means preparation finally met opportunity.In Proverbs 31, we see a powerful blueprint for life and leadership—one rooted in confidence, value, hard work, perseverance, intelligence, ingenuity, wisdom, prudence, honor, and beauty. These traits don’t just build character—they position you for divine timing.This episode explores how biblical wisdom impacts:Confidence and personal valueWork ethic and perseveranceIntegrity-driven preparationLeadership, purpose, and timingWhy your opportunity won’t leave without youIf you’ve ever felt behind, rushed, or uncertain about your timing—this message is for you. You’re not late. You’re being prepared.👉 Subscribe to The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas for weekly wisdom, leadership insights, and conversations that align your heart, mind, and skills.

What do you do when the people closest to you don’t support your next step? Proverbs 28 gives a powerful answer—and today’s conversation might be exactly what you need if you’re feeling unseen, unsupported, or discouraged.A friend of mine, Vince, reached out after launching a new aspect of his business. Instead of encouragement, he felt resistance from the very people he expected to support him. That moment created a fork in the road: either jump in the hole with him emotionally, or offer timeless wisdom passed down from my Pops—you can be a prophet in every city except your own hometown.This episode unpacks a hard truth leaders, entrepreneurs, and people of faith eventually learn: your friends and your customers are rarely the same people. And that’s okay.Rooted in Proverbs 28 and reinforced by 2 Corinthians 9:6—“whoever sows sparingly will reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will reap generously”—this conversation centers on one defining question:Which seeds should I plant?Proverbs 28 lays out the exact kind of seeds that lead to an abundant harvest: integrity, righteousness, generosity, discipline, and faithfulness. Our job is not to worry about the increase. Scripture reminds us that one plants, another waters—but only God brings the increase.If you’re building something new, walking by faith, or planting seeds without applause, this episode is your encouragement.Keep planting. God handles the harvest.Vince—your harvest is on the way.👉 Subscribe to The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify for more daily wisdom, leadership encouragement, and Inchstones rooted in Scripture.👉 If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who’s planting seeds quietly and faithfully.

What does Proverbs 5 teach us about friendship, wisdom, and trusting God when we don’t understand the moment? In this episode of InchStones, Kelly Cardenas breaks down Proverbs 5 through a powerful real-life story that reveals how great friends—and God—protect you from what you can’t see.It started on the side of a highway near Jalama Beach with a blown tire, no spare, and a firm command: “Get in the car.” What felt confusing (and honestly a little irritating) in the moment became one of the clearest lessons on friendship, sacrifice, and wisdom decades later. Proverbs 5 reminds us to turn our ear toward wisdom, preserve discretion, and recognize that true friends act in our best interest—even when we don’t fully understand their tone, timing, or methods.This episode explores how real friendship mirrors God’s character: seeing ahead, protecting quietly, and guiding us through rough roads for a greater purpose. Sometimes wisdom doesn’t explain itself in the moment—it just asks you to listen. And sometimes the blessing only makes sense years later.If you’ve ever questioned God’s direction, misunderstood a friend’s intentions, or wondered why obedience feels uncomfortable, this conversation will challenge how you define trust, wisdom, and loyalty—without giving you all the answers upfront.🎧 Watch, listen, and lean in.📌 Subscribe to The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas for more Proverbs-based InchStones that shape faith, leadership, and life—one small step at a time.

Proverbs 6 teaches powerful biblical wisdom about identity, discipline, diligence, and the importance of being yourself in a distracted world. In this episode of The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas, we explore Proverbs 6 through the simple but profound life lesson: “Just be yourself” — or as my mama used to say, “Just be Kelly.”At first, those words sounded generic, even silly. Teachers said it. Parents said it. I even caught myself saying it to my daughter—until she hit me with, “Duh… everyone else is already taken.” And just like that, wisdom knocked.Proverbs 6 reveals that being yourself isn’t accidental—it’s built. It’s formed slowly, deliberately, and powerfully through diligence, focus, and a calm mind. When your heart is full of love and your life is aligned, being yourself creates confidence, vision, discernment, and the ability to see trouble before it arrives.This chapter also warns us about distractions—often disguised as opportunity or fear of missing out. Proverbs 6 reminds us that staying in our lane, working our land, and not being consumed by comparison is protection, not limitation.What my mama delivered in a simple sentence turned out to be a graduate-level blueprint for life. It took time—and wisdom—for the depth of her words to fully unlock. Most of the challenges I face today can be traced back to moments where I ignored that wisdom.So today, Mama… I hear you loud and clear.Just be Kelly.Mic officially dropped.👉 Subscribe to The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas for daily wisdom, leadership insights, and real conversations that align your heart, mind, and actions.👉 Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or watch on YouTube for more Proverbs-based Inchstones that help you live with clarity and purpose.

This episode was sparked by a simple text, a follow-up call, and an intentional act of kindness from my friend Craig Gottlieb. That small moment carried massive impact and led me to ask a powerful question: Do I make people feel great?Proverbs 18 gives us a clear blueprint for being a great friend—speaking life, choosing wisdom over gossip, diligence over laziness, humility over ego, and listening before reacting. When you fill your heart with wisdom, discernment, and time with God, you become refreshing to the people around you. Good friends don’t just show up—they add value.If you’ve ever wondered how to be a better friend, how to build stronger relationships, or how biblical wisdom applies to everyday life, Proverbs 18 is where to start.

“Because I said so.”If you grew up in the 60s, 70s, or 80s, you know that sentence ended every debate. No negotiation. No follow-up questions. Just obedience. And looking back… our parents weren’t wrong.In this episode of The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas, we break down Proverbs 10 and uncover a powerful truth:Proverbs 10 is God saying, “Because I said so.”This chapter of Proverbs lays out timeless wisdom that still works today: • A wise son brings joy to his father • Doing wrong never pays off • Laziness never works—ever • Integrity creates security • Wisdom accepts instruction • Gossip destroys, but love covers all wrongs • The righteous speak life and produce fruit • Discipline brings life, but ignoring correction leads to ruinThrough practical inchstones (small, daily wisdom steps that compound into massive life change), we explore what happens when you trust God’s Word the same way we trusted our parents—even when we didn’t like the answer.👉 Learn more about Inch Stones here: https://a.co/d/4CYg4vGProverbs 10 teaches us that obedience isn’t about control—it’s about protection.The blessing of the Lord cannot be earned.

Proverbs 12 is a masterclass in slowing down, tuning in, and letting God realign your heart—and in this episode, we break it all down through the lens of Inchstones, the small daily shifts that lead to massive spiritual transformation. (If you’re new to Inchstones, here’s the book we keep talking about: https://a.co/d/4CYg4vG.)In this conversation, we explore what “Stop. Look. Listen.” really means—not just as a childhood lesson, but as a spiritual command that shows up all throughout Proverbs 12. My mama and Pops may not have used those exact words, but the wisdom behind them shaped everything. Stop long enough to breathe and count your blessings. Look at the miracles that placed you in this moment. Listen to God reminding you that you are loved more than you’ll ever comprehend.As the holidays bring pressure, expectations, and emotional weight, Proverbs 12 invites us to anchor ourselves in God’s wisdom:• Stop for discipline, because discipline builds knowledge (v.1)• Look at the people around you—good relationships create great results (v.2–3)• Listen for God’s direction (v.4)• Speak life (v.6, 13–14, 18–19, 22)• Stay humble, avoid the fake-the-funk trap (v.9)• Be kind—it’s always cool (v.10)• Work your land, your way (v.11)• Listen deeply—it’s your unfair advantage (v.15)• Think ahead, breathe, and reset (v.16, 20)• Let wisdom protect your future (v.21, 23–25)• Choose friends wisely (v.26)• Don’t get lazy (v.27)• Righteousness produces life (v.28)The message is simple but strong: God knows exactly where you’ve been, where you are, and what’s coming next. He is inviting you—commanding you—to stop, look, and listen so you can actually receive His love, peace, and joy… and walk in it today.If this episode added value to your day, subscribe to the podcast on Apple, Spotify, or YouTube right here: https://solo.to/kellycardenasAnd while you're at it, become a free or paid subscriber of The VIBE Report on Substack to go deeper every week with Heart, Mind, and Skills alignment.

That way, when the blessing shows up (even in toast form), we know exactly where it came from.If you want wisdom, instruction, understanding, insight, prudence, righteous behavior, knowledge, discretion, discernment, guidance, and the ability to interpret the parables and riddles of the wise—Proverbs is your daily bread.

Why Ziggy’s Chaos, Your Frustrations, and God’s Wisdom Might Be the Wake-Up Call You NeededIf you’ve ever been overwhelmed by someone’s behavior, frustrated by a situation, or ready to flip a table over the symptoms in your life—this episode is your turning point. This Proverbs 25 breakdown reveals why your biggest battles are never about what you see… they’re about the root beneath it all. This video unpacks the Inchstones behind the phrase my Pops ingrained in me: “It’s nothing but a symptom, boy! Focus on the root!”For the past week, my dog Ziggy has been acting absolutely wild—peeing in the house like he’s on a mission. And I felt myself sliding into the old version of my dad I call “DAD,” the tough-love, no-nonsense, fire-breathing, “get it together” Pops. But right as I was about to snap, I heard his real voice—the voice of wisdom:“Don’t react to the symptom, boy. Focus on the root.”This episode goes deep into:• Why symptoms in people and situations aren’t the real problem• How Proverbs 25 invites us to breathe, slow down, and see clearly• Why intense heat purifies—and how frustration is often a refining fire• The power of speaking life, staying humble, and choosing patience• How God exposes roots when we trust Him fully• Why miracles require faith and why you’ll need that faith for where you’re goingIf you’ve been irritated, disappointed, overwhelmed, confused, or wrestling with someone you care about… this one hits home.

How Proverbs 21, Inchstones, and God-Centered Friendship Build Real Strength, Open Doors, and Transform Your LeadershipIn this episode, we break down Proverbs 21, godly friendship, and the Inchstones approach to daily wisdom, uncovering why the only way “in” is never through friendship itself—but by becoming the kind of friend God can use. These first two sentences are keyword-rich to help listeners searching for Proverbs 21 meaning, biblical leadership, Christian friendship, spiritual growth, and godly wisdom find exactly what they’re looking for.I’ve learned this the hard way: when I tried to enter rooms through friendship, I was denied… but when I focused on becoming the right kind of friend, God opened every door I didn’t even know to knock on. Relationships have torn down walls, shattered barriers, and moved mountains in my life—and maybe that’s God’s not-so-subtle way of keeping me grateful. Or maybe it’s Him showing me—demanding of me—that true greatness is found in being the friend I’m so often searching for.Proverbs 21 flips the script:Stop hunting for the friend who will open doors.Become the friend whose motives please God… and watch Him handle the rest.In this episode, we unpack the traits Proverbs 21 tells us are non-negotiables for a great friend and a great leader:Give God your heart — right motives matter more than sacrifice.Let go of envy, pride, and ego — they don’t work. Ever.Choose diligence and patience — they build unstoppable momentum.Speak life — it’s an unfair advantage in a negative world.Pursue godly gain — it’s more valuable than worldly success.Pay attention — awareness brings wisdom.Be generous — it saves you when you need it most.Do what’s right — righteousness brings joy.Honor the future — wisdom sees beyond the moment.Love well — prosperity and honor follow those who lead with love.Strength comes from wisdom — not force.Listen fast, speak slow — the wise reverse the natural impulse.Prepare fully — but remember: the victory is always the Lord’s.These traits transform friendships, leadership, business, family… your whole life. But Proverbs 21 closes with a warning: none of them work if you don’t spend time with God.This episode will challenge you, stretch you, and give you practical Inchstones—small, quiet, daily moves—that build a life God can use and friendships that change the world.If you’re ready to become the friend you’ve been searching for, this conversation will hit home.If this episode encouraged you, subscribe, review, and share the podcast to help spread the message.All links are right here: https://solo.to/kellycardenas

How Proverbs 11, Presence, and a Relationship with God Can Turn Everyday Moments into Divine ResultsDiscover how to breathe, be present, and stop being an idiot through the timeless wisdom of Proverbs 11. This faith-based episode of The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas explores how presence, righteousness, and divine wisdom build true success, not just seasonal happiness.As the holidays approach—a time that can feel joyful for some and heavy for others—Kelly invites you to pause, inhale through your nose, and exhale through your mouth. These simple breaths anchor you in the now, reminding you to love those in front of you and savor every second before it’s gone.From a personal revelation sparked by God’s humor (“Don’t be an idiot”) to an in-depth look at how faith becomes a profession, not a pastime, Kelly breaks down the genius behind Proverbs 11. The blueprint? Honesty. Integrity. Humility. Truth. When we pursue righteousness, we gain protection, wisdom, discernment, prosperity, and peace.Inchstones in this episode:Faith isn’t a hobby—it’s a professional practice that brings real value.Presence produces results; distraction destroys them.Proverbs 11 is the path from foolishness to divine genius.Root yourself in righteousness, lift your head toward heaven, and remember: a person who produces results is no idiot—they’re a genius in God’s eyes.

God’s timing, humor, and consistency are too perfect to miss. This episode dives deep into the divine alignment between Scripture, music, and memory—showing that you can’t make this stuff up. When songs from Maverick City Music—“Too Good to Not Believe,” “Refiner,” and “Kingdom” featuring the lyric “Do you wanna know what Heaven looks like? It’s looking like me and you”—randomly shuffled into my quiet time, it felt like heaven itself was speaking.In this powerful reflection, I share how Proverbs 10, my parents’ timeless wisdom, and a “random” playlist all collided to prove one truth: God’s consistency is undefeated. Verse after verse reminds us that righteousness brings joy, diligence beats laziness, and wisdom invites discipline. My mom used to say, “Count your many blessings, name them one by one,” and my pops would remind me, “Boy, you’re the greatest—so act accordingly.” Turns out, they were echoing what God wrote 3,000 years ago.💡 Key Takeaways from Proverbs 10:Honor your parents by listening and applying (v.1)Diligence + prudence = success (v.4–5, 26)Integrity creates security (v.9)Speaking life is an unfair advantage (v.11, 13, 18–21, 31–32)Wisdom stores up knowledge (v.14)Love is the ultimate power play (v.12)Righteousness brings joy and protection (v.28–30)This is what heaven looks like—it’s looking like me and you, refined by fire, purified by love, and strengthened by faith. God doesn’t just call us; He gives us the answers to the test. His consistency is not coincidence—it’s confirmation.✨ Watch now to experience how God speaks through timing, humor, and everyday moments.If you’ve ever doubted that God sees you, this episode will remind you: He’s too good to not believe.🙏 Thank you Mama. Thank you Pops. Thank you God. And thank you Maverick City Music for the soundtrack that heaven queued up right on time.
