Episode 69: What Not to Do When You Want Growth (And How I Accidentally Unlocked New Leadership)
09:28|In this episode, I share a wake-up moment from our team gratitude call in December of 2025 that reminded me I needed to practice what I preach and share my story louder!I dive into my journey: struggling to do it all on my own, wanting success more for others than for myself, and feeling the frustration when my income dipped but my hustle didn’t. Watching others pause, embrace their humanity, and share what they love inspired me to make a change.Through leaning into prayer — yes, the cupboard prayer — and letting go, I experienced a breakthrough: hitting a leadership level that seemed impossible while actually resting on the weekends! This wasn’t luck — it was the power of consistent faith and letting third-party credibility help paint the vision.Now, I’m on a mission to help others see that consistency, faith, and sharing their story can transform both their business and their life — all while keeping God at the center.Tune in for encouragement, practical insight, and a reminder that rest + faith can truly move the needle.And, after today's homework, you'll need extra encouragement from Episode 43.
