🎧 Are you carrying the weight of the world quietly, trying to be “strong” for everyone else, feeling abandoned, misunderstood or even painted as the villain for finally telling the truth, wondering how you are supposed to keep functioning when your soul feels crushed and feeling like you're doing it ALL ALONE.

This episode is for you.

In today’s episode, Jana gets raw and tender about some of the heaviest seasons of her life, the kind most people never see. She shares what it was really like to wake up alone with overwhelming responsibility, to cry on the floor day after day, to feel abandoned by people who should have stayed, and to discover that silence is not holy and rejection can actually be God’s protection.

This is a faith filled, real talk episode about grief, trauma, spiritual warfare, and the God who sits with you on the floor, not just in the pretty parts of your story. If you have felt invisible, crazy, disposable, or like you might not make it through, Jana recorded this one with you in mind.

There is also a powerful closing prayer over every listener, especially those who have felt tempted to give up.

S1, E19 of the Dream Doers Podcast – “Why You Need A Showit Website, Like, Yesterday!”

🎧 Still stuck on a website that feels clunky, confusing, or nothing like the brand you’re building, feeling overwhelmed by tech and unsure when it’s finally “worth it” to invest (or afraid to get it wrong)

This episode is for you.

In today’s episode, Jana Marie pulls back the curtain on Showit, the website platform she wishes she had invested in years earlier. After resisting the cost and riding the fence far too long, she realized Showit was not an expense at all, it was the system that finally made her businesses feel aligned, professional, and sustainable and gave her TIME back.

Jana walks through the backend live, sharing how she runs multiple brands, podcasts, blogs, shops, client portals, and even link-in-bio pages from a single Showit account. More importantly, she explains why strong systems matter so much, especially when life gets heavy, seasons change, or you simply do not have the capacity to hold everything together on your own.

This episode is for creatives, entrepreneurs, and dream doers who want their online presence to work for them instead of draining their energy.

💬 Leave a comment about what you want to see more of in the back end and I can do some YouTube shorts for you. What other questions do you have?

🌈 If this episode helped you rethink what your website could be or gave you permission to finally stop waiting, share it with someone who is building a business and needs systems that actually support their life.

S1, E18 of the Dream Doers Podcast - "You Can’t Pray for Change and Stay the Same"

🎧 Stuck in financial chaos? Feeling overwhelmed, behind, or unsure how to start building stability?
This episode is for you.

After weeks in a financial course at her church, Jana Marler noticed the same pattern over and over: people desperately want change, but she has some real solutions and when real solutions show up: simple, affordable, practical, we freeze. In today’s episode, Jana breaks down why this happens, how faith shifts our financial mindset, and what it really takes to move from chaos to clarity and open our minds to new possibilities.

Inside, you’ll hear real stories of families, entrepreneurs, and everyday people who discovered financial options they never knew existed, plus Jana’s own testimony of learning to trust God with her finances and her future.

💬 If this episode stirred something in you, share it with someone who needs a reminder that God still opens doors, and it’s time to walk through them.
