God invites us to stop focusing on future plans and instead recognize the mission opportunities right in front of us - in our families, businesses, and daily interactions.

• Your children are your first disciples, giving you the responsibility to model Christ through your words and actions
• Your business serves as a vehicle for gospel impact through your values, service, and treatment of others
• Distractions and discontentment pull us away from God's present calling
• Practice being spirit-led in each moment rather than postponing mission for "someday"
• Disciple your children through prayer routines, intentional conversations, your tone, and being fully present
• You don't need a perfect season or giant platform to fulfill God's mission for you

Spend five minutes today asking God, "Where is the harvest you want me to see today?" and ask Him to help you act on what He shows you.

Feeling lost in the endless demands of motherhood? You're not alone. When your dreams and identity take a backseat to diapers and dishes, something vital gets buried—but it doesn't have to stay that way.

Kingdom Life Coach Megan Nielsen shares a transformative truth: stepping into your God-given purpose isn't selfish or secondary to motherhood—it actually makes you a better parent. "When I am in my creative flow, doing what God created me to do in addition to motherhood, I'm just a happier and more peaceful mom," Megan reveals. This fulfillment flows directly to your children, showing them what living with purpose and joy looks like.

For mothers with young children, Megan offers practical wisdom about getting honest with yourself and creative with solutions. Taking inventory of your emotional and spiritual reserves, having candid conversations with your spouse, and finding appropriate help aren't luxuries—they're necessities for sustainable motherhood. She challenges the guilt-inducing mindset of "I should be able to do this myself," asking pointedly: "Why should it be just you?"

The discussion delves into distinguishing unhealthy guilt from godly conviction, uncovering your unique calling through journaling and conversation, and recognizing the seasons of motherhood. Megan's framework of negotiables versus non-negotiables provides a clear path for honoring both family commitments and personal calling without comparison to others.

As a bonus, Megan introduces her book "Untangled Faith" and her "beautiful exchange journaling" method that helps women hear God's voice clearly in their decisions. She closes with powerful encouragement from Galatians: "Don't get weary in doing good, because you will reap a harvest at the proper time."

Imagine transforming your relationship with your children overnight, simply by shifting your perspective on their "misbehavior." In this eye-opening conversation with three-time TEDx speaker Katherine Sellery, founder of the Conscious Parenting Revolution, we explore how our expectations of perfection sabotage the very connections we hope to build.

Katherine reveals a powerful reframe: What if we viewed behavioral challenges just like spelling mistakes, not as defiance but as developmental learning opportunities? When a child misspells a word, we don't punish them; we teach them. Yet with emotional regulation and behavior, many parents expect mastery from children still developing these complex skills.

Through vivid examples and practical techniques like the "magic eight" exercise for emotional regulation, Katherine demonstrates how moving from punishment to guidance eliminates the toxic cycle of retaliation, rebellion, and resistance that accounts for 75% of behavioral disruptions in families. She challenges the dangerous emphasis on obedience and compliance, instead advocating for teaching consideration, conflict resolution, and emotional intelligence.

Most powerfully, Katherine helps us understand that children are whole people from birth—not empty vessels to fill but teachers who trigger our own growth opportunities. When your child says "no" to your request, they're saying "yes" to something internally important. This shift in understanding transforms power struggles into collaborative problem-solving.

Whether you're struggling with a defiant toddler or seeking a deeper connection with your teen, this conversation offers transformative tools for building trust through conscious communication.

Have you ever reached that milestone you've been praying for, only to feel strangely empty and anxious afterward? That post-breakthrough crash is real, confusing, and surprisingly common among entrepreneurs.

I recently experienced this emotional dip following a successful summit. Despite wonderful outcomes and many answered prayers, I hit a wall when the intensity suddenly stopped. The transition from constant action to relative calm left me feeling vulnerable and directionless – exactly when I should have been celebrating!

This pattern mirrors Elijah's story in 1 Kings 18-19. After his dramatic victory against the prophets of Baal, calling down fire from heaven in a spectacular display of God's power, Elijah immediately plunged into despair. His mountaintop miracle was followed by a valley of emotional exhaustion – a pattern many of us recognize in our business journeys.

The vulnerability we feel post-achievement comes from the abrupt shift from high-effort mode (where we feel productive and purposeful) to a stillness that can feel disorienting. When all our energy has been channeled into meeting a goal, the absence of that driving focus creates an unexpected void.

Through navigating these transitions, I've developed three practical strategies: First, prepare by identifying what genuinely replenishes you (nature, certain relationships, creative activities) and schedule those immediately following your big event. Second, remember God remains sovereign during both the hustle and the stillness. Third, maintain your spiritual disciplines, as consistent time with God provides stability through these emotional fluctuations.

How do you recover after reaching a milestone? Share your experience or try these strategies after your next launch. The crash may still come, but you'll be better equipped to navigate it with intention and grace.

The tension between what we can control and what we must surrender to God is one of the most transformational shifts we can make as faith-driven moms and entrepreneurs. In this powerful conversation, Jeremy and I unpack what it looks like to take radical ownership of our actions, beliefs, and choices—while fully surrendering outcomes, circumstances, and other people’s decisions to God.

🌿 Radical ownership means stewarding our time, talents, and responsibilities well—without blame-shifting, waiting for perfect conditions, or letting fear hold us back.
🌿 Radical surrender is releasing the weight of control and trusting that God's plans are always greater, even when the path ahead is unclear.
🌿 Living in this balance is where true peace is found—where we take the next faithful step, knowing that God provides just enough light for what’s ahead.

If you’re ready to align your business with God’s calling—without sacrificing your family, faith, or peace—join us inside the Purpose Beyond Profit Mastermind. This is where faith-driven entrepreneurs come together to build businesses that honor God and create sustainable success.
