“the book is on Amazon, Dirty Disciple … would love for you guys to read it and give us a review … reach out to me in the DMs if it strikes you”
“Folks, if you have a story, if you have a testimony, bring it out to the world. Message me, DM me. I need more of these stories.”

Taking the leap of faith can be terrifying, yet it's often where true growth happens. As entrepreneurs, we're constantly on the brink of risking public failure, and that's where today's conversation begins. In our latest episode of the Certain Success Podcast, I recount the whirlwind experience of hosting our first grand-scale virtual event, Dream Builders Live. It was an intense, heart-pounding journey that left me feeling more alive than I've been in a decade. This wasn't just about event production; it was a profound lesson in making room for the divine, where the presence of God was tangible and transformative.

Reflecting on these recent experiences, I dive into the concept of "free falling" into faith—where we embrace vulnerability and let go of the fear that holds us back. By sharing insights and divine revelations with the world instead of hiding them away, we invite others to join us on this spiritual journey. The Dream Builders Live event was filled with unexpected gifts and lessons that went far beyond my expectations. As I share my personal story of experiencing a spiritual high and learning to trust in God's timing, my hope is that listeners will find inspiration to take their own leaps into the unknown, guided by faith and the strength of community.

Picture this: you have dreams so big they scare you, but what if those dreams were placed in your heart by a higher power? Join us on this episode of the Certain Success Podcast as we return from a brief hiatus and dive into the transformative journey of pursuing God-sized dreams. We open up about the personal stories that have shaped our paths, including the unwavering support of loved ones that fuels our ambitions. The episode is filled with insights on aligning your aspirations with divine purpose and finding joy in the pursuit of your true calling. We're here to remind you that faith and perseverance can light the way, even amidst life's storms.

But what about the battles we face on this journey? It's not all smooth sailing. The episode also tackles the challenges of embracing our true identity, especially in the face of spiritual warfare. We explore the power of naming and how early experiences shape us, sharing stories that resonate with anyone who's ever felt misunderstood. We discuss the importance of wearing the "armor of God" to protect against spiritual attacks, and how reconnecting with our faith can lead to a life of co-creation with God. Tune in as we highlight the significance of community, direct relationships with Jesus, and prioritizing faith as the cornerstone of both life and marriage.
