My friend...let’s have a heart-to-heart. If fear has been holding you back from walking in the very thing God is calling you to do...then this episode is for you. Whether you’re folding laundry, heading to work, or making your morning coffee… I want this short word to interrupt your fear and realign your focus with faith.

In today’s God Empowered Entrepreneur Podcast episode, I’m sharing a raw and real encouragement about what happens when we fear our obedience to God in doing what He's called us to do, more than we fear disobeying God. Because let’s be honest...God’s been trying to pull something out of you for a while now…a gift, a message, a business, a book, a creative idea…and you keep shrinking back. You keep hesitating. You struggle with consistency.

Here’s the truth: You don’t need a massive leap to break through. You just need one obedient step at a time.

In this episode, I’ll walk you through:

👉 A mindset shift that will immediately help you move from fear to faith
👉 Why fearing disobedience to God can become your greatest motivation
👉 How 30 minutes a day can change everything in your obedience journey
👉 A simple reminder about God's provision that will calm your financial worries
👉 What I heard from God that is changing the way I lead, create, and show up
👉 The one question you need to ask yourself if you're delaying your calling

If you've been stuck asking “is it time?” or “am I really ready?”, this episode will speak directly to your spirit. You don’t need to have all the answers to move. You just need to trust the One who does.

Be sure to share this episode with a friend who’s stuck in fear mode. We’re not doing delayed obedience anymore!

🎧 Hit play now and let this be your reminder: God is not just calling you to something for your sake. Your obedience unlocks breakthrough for others too. IT'S TIME!

Let’s talk about something that doesn’t get brought up enough...What if the idol in your life isn’t money, status, or success...but YOU? In this episode, we go deep into the hidden idol that many ambitious people don’t realize they have: the belief that you are the solution. That it’s all on your shoulders. That if you just do more, fix more, or control more in your life and business...you’ll finally be okay.

But here's the truth: when you put yourself in the position only God is meant to hold, it leads to burnout, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion.

That's why in this episode, I’m breaking down:
✔️ what self-idolization actually looks like (it’s not always prideful or obvious)
✔️ how believing you are the answer can quietly take God's place
✔️ the three areas this shows up most: your relationship with money, people, and old habits
✔️ and how to release that pressure and let God lead again

This conversation is honest, freeing, and full of truth. Because God never asked you to be your own savior...He just asked for your surrender. If you’ve been feeling the pressure to figure it all out or carry everyone’s weight…this one’s for you.

Let’s be real...being invisible online sucks. You’re posting. You’re showing up. You’re pouring your heart out. But the crickets are LOUD. And after a while, it starts to feel personal. In this episode, we’re unpacking the raw truth about what it feels like to show up consistently and see little to no traction as an entrepreneur and/or content creator...especially when you know deep down that you’re called to more.

If you've ever thought:

“Why isn’t this working?”

“Am I even making a difference?”

“Is God really in this?”

...this conversation is for you.

Inside, I’m sharing:
💥 The REAL reason your impact might feel small (and why that’s a lie)
💥 How to reframe your mindset when it seems like no one is watching
💥 The spiritual trap of chasing growth for the wrong reasons
💥 A powerful reminder about who this is really for (hint: it’s not about you)

You’ll walk away encouraged, re-centered, and refocused on what actually matters in your business, your message, and your mission.

Hit play and let’s talk about how to keep going - even when it feels invisible. Because someone is being impacted...and that someone might be exactly who God needs you to reach.

Have you ever believed that striving for wealth was ungodly? If so, you're not alone. Many Christians feel stuck financially because they’ve been taught that the pursuit of wealth contradicts their faith. In this episode, we’re breaking down the lie that keeps so many believers broke - and silent.

The truth? God doesn’t want you to live with a poverty mindset. It’s not the desire for wealth that’s wrong - it’s when wealth becomes your god (Matthew 6:24). In fact, God wants you to experience abundance, but in a way that honors Him.

We’ll explore:
👉 Financial Freedom: How to break free from financial bondage without letting money rule your heart.
👉 Mental Freedom: Why controlling your thoughts is a form of wealth and how to achieve it through prayer, self-control, and community.
👉 Spiritual Abundance: The power of using your spiritual weapons to build a strong foundation that can withstand any attack.

God’s definition of wealth goes beyond money - it’s about living a life filled with purpose, freedom, and divine provision. Tune in to learn how to embrace financial, mental, and spiritual abundance while keeping your heart aligned with God’s will.

This one’s for the creative who’s been carrying a God-given idea in their heart for way too long. You know the one...the idea that keeps nudging you, whispering at you in the quiet moments, but somehow keeps getting pushed to the back burner.

Yeah… I’m talking to you today.

And don’t worry - I’m not coming for you without checking myself first. Because this? It used to be me. Honestly, some days, it still is. When God gives us something to build, birth, or begin that business, book, product, service, or new season...the resistance is real. Doubt, delay, distraction - they all show up dressed like “good reasons.”

But deep down, you know you’re not at peace because you haven’t moved on what He placed in you.

In today’s episode, we’re going heart-first into:

• Why your idea won’t let you go
• The sneaky ways fear masks itself as “timing” or “preparation”
• And how to take one bold, obedient step toward the vision...even if it’s messy

This isn’t about hustle. It’s about holy momentum.

Let’s talk about what happens when you finally say yes.

Timestamps:

00:00 – A heart check: that God-given idea you keep putting off
00:45 – Let’s be honest about the fear, the uncertainty, and the weight of it all
01:56 – Learning to recognize when it’s God speaking...NOT just a passing thought
03:49 – What it actually looks like to move forward (even when it feels messy)
07:04 – When the self-doubt creeps in and you start questioning if you're "ready"
08:45 – The power of your “yes” and what obedience really activates
15:35 – Some practical ways to take the first step (no perfection required)
16:46 – You don’t have to do this alone - come be part of the community!
