Today I’m talking with Cassie Kitzmiller about the Spiritual principles behind accomplishing more by doing less in the Kingdom of God.
In this episode, Cassie talks about her new book Multiply which focuses on having a Kingdom perspective on money, growth, and everything we do.
This discussion about these deep Spiritual topics may challenge your thinking and what you’ve heard before, but I invite you to listen with an open heart and mind.
Some topics we dive into are:
What does it look like to operate our lives and businesses as entrepreneurs from a Kingdom perspective instead of a worldly one?
Cassie talks about principles found in Scripture and how we can apply these principles to our business to experience the abundance of the Kingdom.
Mindset shifts that are important for seeing our business the way God does instead of what makes sense to us.
Is it really ok for Christians to want more?
Why do so many unbelievers have wealth and Christians don’t seem to and is that ok?
Building our businesses as the Body of Christ and not by ourselves.
Is it ok to set money goals as a Christian 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.

Hey! I'm Alexia -a Christian mindset coach passionate about teaching moms how to renew their minds to find success both in business and motherhood. You CAN overcome the negative thoughts holding you back from fully stepping into your calling.
I know what it’s like to worry your business will never work, to feel mom guilt every time you work on your business. To realize your mindset is hindering you, but not knowing how to change it in a Christ-centered way.
For years, fear and worry consumed me as I tried to create success a thousand different ways with an online business. Finally, I realized mindset was the culprit holding me back. I was letting thoughts, like mom guilt and fear of failure, run my life.
If I wanted to be successful, I needed to understand how mindset worked- but from a Biblical perspective.
I implemented a simple, yet powerful strategy for tackling all of my mindset blocks that brought me closer than ever to God. As I surrendered my thoughts to Him, I found peace regardless of my business success and joy in being a mom and entrepreneur. I want the same for you!

You know you’re called to start this business, but you also don’t want to neglect your family.
When we feel that calling to be an entrepreneur, it can consume us if we’re not careful. Not to mention the standards that the world is calling us to when it comes to success and how money and followers seem to be the ultimate measure of a “successful” online business.
But as Christian entrepreneurs, we know that’s not true. We’re called to do things differently.
Today on the podcast, I’m talking with Michelle and Somer from She Works His Way about how to prioritize what matters most as Christian women called to work.
This conversation is so rich with wisdom and mindset shifts on how to see work and all you do as something unto the Lord.
Here are a few of the topics we cover:
**How to respond to hustle culture and the drive to succeed as Christian women today
**Being “set apart” and what that looks like for women today
**Giving a Biblical definition of work
**When to leave your job to pursue entrepreneurship (or not)
**The real measure of success
**How to handle it when friends and family resist your decision to follow God in your work
**How to hear God to follow where He’s leading
**Knowing God’s will for your life
**Combating mom guilt
“The world promised us that if we could achieve work-life balance, then all would be ok. But the real answer is keeping God first and then everything will be ok.” - Michelle and Somer, She Works His Way
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 Michelle and Somer
Michelle and Somer love to talk about how culture is shifting the focus of Christian women who work—always telling us to work more, do more, be more. But, that’s not what Jesus calls us to. He is constantly turning us back to himself. So as women who feel called to work, how can we stop prioritizing balance and start prioritizing what or Who matters most? Culture says: Forge your own way. God says: I am the only Way.

With it being Thanksgiving, I wanted to talk about how to see God’s provision and be thankful for it even when it doesn’t feel like it’s that abundant.
I hear so many clients talk about provision and how it feels like God isn’t showing up in their business financially. They’re wondering why He hasn’t blessed the business or honored their obedience.
This might be you too.
So I wanted to talk about how our expectations of what provision should look like can actually hinder us from seeing God’s provision all together.
In this episode, I go over 3 Biblical principles that will help you keep your thoughts focused on Him and having a Biblical mindset around provision.
Share your gratitudes in the FB group! I’d love to hear what you’re grateful for as God reveals His goodness to 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.

Even in one session, I’ve seen women start to overcome imposter syndrome and move forward with action steps in confidence, get clarity on what God is calling them to do so they make solid goals they feel good about, and pinpoint limiting beliefs and let Biblical truth outweigh the lies and then finally move forward in an area they were stuck in.

Have you ever felt yourself saying that you shouldn’t do something because you’re not an expert yet? That you want to have integrity and only teach others once you’ve mastered something?
But what if God really is calling you to serve others in that area, but you unknowingly have masked fear and doubt with integrity?
In today’s episode, I’m going to share three questions you can ask yourself that can reveal any limiting beliefs that could be holding you back in this area. We’ll look at Biblical truth and use mindset coaching strategies to challenge your current thinking and start to make shifts toward a Biblical mindset.
Share with us in the Mama With A Calling facebook group what you are called to help others with. What is God calling you to do? Telling others is the first step towards saying “yes” to God’s call.
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.

Have you ever felt like God was calling you to share your story or help others in an area that you don’t feel qualified to help them in?
Like, “God…but I’m not through it. I’m not an expert yet. I haven’t mastered this.”
But God continues to put it on your heart to help and speak up anyway.
Today, I’m talking with author Julie Thomas about her struggles with postpartum depression and how God asked her to share her story and how God used her journey to help others and heal herself in the process.
The other side of Julie’s story that’s so encouraging is how to draw close to God, to lean on Him, and seek His face even through the hardest times.
On this episode, some topics we discuss are:
Dealing with fear and shame when you’re going through a hard season
Reading the Bible to seek answers and healing
Seeking God and hearing His direction
The power of sharing your story even when you’re in the midst of it yourself and how it can impact others
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 Julie Thomas
Julie Thomas is a wife, mother of two, life coach and author. After the birth of her second son, Julie battled a severe case of postpartum depression. For years, emotions of anxiety, confusion and shame consumed her life, leading to isolation and suicidal thoughts. In her darkest hour, she felt God’s undeniable call to share her story with others. With the release of her novel, HOPE Inside Out, and her willingness to be open and transparent, Julie was able to find healing for herself and help others do the same.

Do you feel guilty for working on your business? You know it’s important, but you don’t really know why you don’t prioritize it the way you want to or know you should in order to have any chance at success.
In Ep 63 of the podcast, we talked about not letting our schedule and the available time we have dictate what we do for God. If God has called you to do something and is asking you to right now, then you have the time.
That sounds good in theory, but what if you really can’t figure out how to adjust your schedule and time to actually prioritize what God is asking you to do to walk in that obedience?
In this episode, you’ll learn how your actions reflect your thoughts (aka mindset) - even with your schedule and what you’re prioritizing in your life. We’re going to talk about identifying and overcoming the two main mindset blocks potentially holding you back from making the shifts in your schedule and adjusting your time and priorities in alignment with where God is leading 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.

As a busy mom with an online business, time can feel limited, to say the least. It often feels like you have too many things on your to-do list and not enough time to get them done. You feel pulled in all directions. You keep trying to fit your business in, but often you go days (or sometimes weeks…am I the only one that’s done that?) without actually working on your business at all.
But what if it doesn’t need to be that way? What if you can show up for your business every single week in a way that aligns with the calling God has put on your heart?
In this episode, we’re going to talk about changing how we think about time in a way that gives us more freedom to work on the business. Honestly, without these shifts, you may be inadvertently walking in disobedience (I know…I didn’t like it when I realized that either).
These 3 simple but practical tips are going to help you move forward with your business and your calling for sure.
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.

Join us for part 2 of the conversation with Sandy Cooper about social media.
Do you have a love hate relationship with social media? It seems like an easy way to market your business because it’s free and feels like everyone is on there. But what if you really don’t like using social media in the first place? What if you just want to create amazing content to serve the people God is calling you to serve instead of creating social media content that might get seen by a fraction of them?
Is social media required to have success as an entrepreneur though? Many feel that it is, but today, I’m going to talk with Sandy Cooper about the reality of using social media as an entrepreneur, the cost, and if it’s actually important for entrepreneurs.
This is Part 2 of a 2 part series so listen to the last episode for the first 3 reasons to reconsider the role of social media in your business.
I pray that this episode speaks to you and leads you to do what God is wanting you to do you in your life and business. This conversation might be controversial to some, but we wanted to bring it to the table to consider all aspects of using social media so we can be good stewards of the businesses God has given us.
