Do you ever feel shame or guilt because you feel like you’ve bounced all over the place on this journey to be an entrepreneur?
You keep trying different business ideas trying to find the “right” one. But this thought that we have to make the right choice the first time is at the root of so much stress and shame for so many women.
In this episode, I want to talk about how to reframe your mindset around why you’re doing this, what it means (and doesn’t mean) about you, and how to move past it if you’re feeling stuck.
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.

In this 2 part interview, I’m joined by Leslee Kiser (author of The Course of This World) to talk about all the ways the enemy tries to keep you from fully walking in what God has for you.
From distractions to our identity, the enemy comes at us from all angles as he tries to keep us focused on ourselves and turned away from God.
Leslee shares her own journey of wrapping her identity up in her performance, ability, looks and possessions and realizing none of that really defined her.
She talks about the power of knowing the Truth in Scripture and how the truth really can set you free from so much.
Some topics you’ll hear about:
What it really looks like to take your thoughts captive
How to recognize the ploys of the enemy
Keeping our thoughts focused on God
Embracing our identity in Christ
Comparison steals our joy
Confidence in Christ and what that looks like
Much more!
As entrepreneurs, imposter syndrome and doubt are constantly coming up, so I know this conversation will resonate with so many of you.
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.
More about Leslee
I grew up in Goodlettsville, TN, in the same house for 21 years. I couldn't wait to get out, then I got out and couldn't wait to get back. I was raised in church but didn't grow spiritually like one would hope. Because I was just out of hell and into heaven, I made a lot of bad decisions based on what I wanted, how they made me feel, or what I got from them. This led me down the road to selfish ambition and insecurity. People who knew me at the time probably had no idea that the weight of comparison was crippling me. The way I coped at the time was to be more of all the things....have nicer clothes, better shoes, be louder, dance better, win more. I was very driven by what others thought. I remember praying that something had to change. I knew the road I was going down would lead to terrible things, possibly even death, but I didn't know how to get off it. After that prayer, little by little, God began to show me that His opinion mattered more than everybody else's. Once He started showing me who He was, and in turn showing me who I am in Him, my life turned upside down. The insecurity started melting away. I started to realize that all the things didn't sustain me, He did.

Are you feeling like starting an online business is just too much? Like this whole entrepreneur this is feeling like a burden and you’re overwhelmed? If that’s you, I’ve got some good news to share with you.
As Christians, we have access to a different way to do things and that’s what I want to talk to you about today.
Because this is a particular slippery spot for many of you, myself included. You’re very driven and motivated. Go-getters. While this served you well in your career life, it can cause issues when you become an entrepreneur.
In this episode, we’re going to be looking at Matthew 11:28-30 and how to apply this passage to your life as an entrepreneur.
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 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.
