Do you find yourself questioning if you’re doing the right business? One thing that comes up a lot with clients is that they are confused about their business. What should their niche be? Really, as Christian entrepreneurs, this means who should their business be serving? When someone is asking questions like this, it can mean that they’re getting stuck in the weeds of all the business strategy stuff and, honestly, looking to the business world to decide who they should be serving with their business.
This happens to so many people (myself included) but it’s not intentional. When we try to use business logic to decide our business direction instead of seeking God’s direction, it causes us to feel lost and confused.
So I want to talk to you today about why it’s important to seek God’s insight on who you are to serve, what that looks like and how to do it.
We’re going to be talking about:
How this is a calling and God has a specific purpose for you and your business. His plan includes you being yourself and leaning into the business He’s given you.
What it feels like when your business is focused on the person He called you to serve
How to stay focused on where God is leading or if you’ve found that you’ve drifted away from that, how to get back on track.
Doing these 3 things will take away a lot of the uncertainty and confusion about your business and help you have peace and confidence that you’re on the right path.
I hope you're encouraged by this episode and that you continue shifting your mindset toward Jesus so you can do all that He is calling you to do.

What do you do when you’re faced with a pivotal moment in your life and God leads you to do the opposite of what you thought? How do you go against what you’ve always thought was the “right” path for you?
In this episode, I’m talking with Katie Miller of Sight & Sound. She’s currently the Director of Marketing and Communications and a wife and mom. While she loves her job now, Katie didn’t always see this as the path she would take.
In this conversation, you’ll hear through Katie’s story how to:
Have the courage to hear God and follow Him
Be willing to challenge your expectations and plans
Juggle all the different hats we wear as moms with a job we’re passionate about
Stay mission-minded in what God is calling you to do
And so much more!
I pray you’re able to hear and receive what God has for you from this episode.

As we end Q1 and head into a fresh quarter, we want to be excited in anticipation of the amazing things we are going to be doing this next quarter. But for many of you, I know that instead of excitement, you’re feeling stressed and overwhelmed at the thought of doing more things. Either you’re stressed about what you didn’t get accomplished in Q1 or you’re overwhelmed thinking about all the things you want to do for Q2.
In reality, you’re stretched too thin. You’re doing too much. It feels like there aren’t enough hours in the day for all the things you want to do in your business, while still being able to be the mom and wife you want to be.
In this episode, I want to talk about how to calm the stress and overwhelm and operate from a place of peace and knowing as you partner with God in your business and life.
You’ll learn how to check your thinking and your heart in these 3 areas and walk away knowing how to discern which areas need the most help and what to do about it.
I pray you’re able to hear and receive what God has for you from this episode.

There’s a hustle narrative in the entrepreneur space and subsequently, we’ve developed an anti-hustle narrative. I actually think both are harmful and not really what we should be doing. Today, I want to dive into each of these camps of thought and then talk about how we can approach how we work from a Biblical perspective as we serve God with our businesses.
In this episode, we’re going to talk about:
Striving vs hustling
Mindset around working and hustling that comes from our careers
How to undo old thinking and replace it with new
What the Bible says about working
And more.
I hope you're encouraged by this episode and that you continue shifting your mindset toward Jesus so you can do all that He is calling you to do.

Part 2: Keys 2-5 for becoming a good listener to God’s voice
Do you ever wonder how to hear God? If those thoughts are yours or His? Hearing from God is important as you’re pursuing His calling on your life because He is guiding you on which business to start, what to do next, etc. When you aren’t sure you can hear Him or hear Him clearly, then it creates a lot of confusion and doubt.
Today, my guest Sandy Cooper is going to talk to us about the 5 keys to becoming a better listener so we can learn how to hear God for ourselves.
This is a 2 part series. The first part is the first 2 keys and then we’ll finish up in Part 2 with the final 3.
We’re going to be talking about:
Cultivating a relationship with Him
Saturating our minds with Scripture
Integrate periods of solitude
Emulate a spirit of humility
Demonstrate a life of obedience
Part 1 introduces the topic and gets us started with why this is important. We cover the first two keys there. In part 2, Sandy finishes them up and shares some practical tips for how to get started.
I hope you're encouraged by this episode and that you continue shifting your mindset toward Jesus so you can do all that He is calling you to do.

Do you ever find yourself asking permission from an online business coach/teacher/mentor? Asking if you’re “allowed” to do something in your business? Or maybe you felt God was leading you in one direction, but you heard an online teacher say the opposite, so you started to doubt what you heard from God.
I think what started as seeking wisdom subtly leads into seeking permission and listening to an online teacher over what God has said.
But I don’t think this is intentional, so I want to talk to you today about why this happens, how to recognize it and how to fix it (or prevent it in the first place).
There are three main lines of thinking that contribute to this happening. What’s wild is that you often won't even recognize you have these thoughts and you’ll just kind of find yourself in that position without even realizing it. Good news is that it really is something you can fix because it starts with thoughts and beliefs and we know those can be changed. So listen as we dive into these 3 thoughts and look at them through a Biblical lens to see how to ultimately trust in God’s plan above all else.
I hope you're encouraged by this episode and that you continue shifting your mindset toward Jesus so you can do all that He is calling you to do.
Coffee chat sign ups: I want to hear from you. If you’re a Christian mom called to online business but you’re finding yourself frustrated and spinning your wheels OR if you recognize that mindset is hindering your success (think money mindset, imposter syndrome etc), and you’re longing for a Biblical deep-dive approach to having thoughts based on Biblical truth above all else, then I’d love to chat with you. As a thank you for your time, I’d love to offer a free 15-min coaching session. Go to mamawithacalling.com/chat to sign up.
