When God Leads You Into the Wilderness: Faith, Provision & Unexpected Prayers Answered

Have you ever felt like you’re in a wilderness season—lost, in between, unsure of who you’re becoming? In this deeply vulnerable episode, I open up about what it really looks like to walk by faith when the answers are unclear, the provision feels small, and the prayers are answered in unexpected ways.

From leaving the New Age behind and stepping fully into my Christian faith… to surrendering control of my business… to sharing the private story of how God answered our prayers for another baby—you’re getting a behind-the-scenes moment most people don’t know.

Whether you’re in a spiritual dry season, feeling stuck in your business, or praying for a breakthrough—this episode will remind you that God is faithful in the daily, not just the dramatic.

What You’ll Hear:

• 🌵 What it means to be in a “wilderness season” (and how to know if you're in one)
• 🔙 Why I kept looking back at my past business success—and how God called me to stop
• 🍼 How a prophecy at church led to an answered prayer the very next day
• 🤰🏽 Why I’m sharing my 11-week pregnancy now—even after loss
• 🙌 What daily provision looks like when you’re living by faith
• 💡 Encouragement if your prayers are being answered differently than expected

✨ Scripture Highlight:

“Don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.”
— Matthew 6:34 (NLT)

Are You Waiting to Be Rescued? The Truth About Surrender and Salvation in Faith-Led Business

Hi, my love. In today’s raw and reflective episode, I invite you into a personal moment of revelation that came—of all places—in the shower. As a wife, mama, and business mentor, I often hold a lot. And sometimes, I just don’t want to deal with one more thing… especially bills!

But this episode isn’t just about finances. It’s about the deeper truth many of us carry as women of faith: a longing to be rescued. Whether you were raised Christian, Catholic, atheist, or something else, I believe this desire points to something profound—the reality that we were made to be saved… and already have been.

You’ll hear me unpack:

- What money dates and mental exhaustion revealed about my old “rescuer” patterns
- Why I used to subconsciously wait for a man to save me
- How New Age archetypes like "maiden vs. queen" left me searching for answers
- The truth of our built-in longing for The Savior, not just a savior
- How to release guilt, shame, or avoidance and step into honest conversation with Jesus
- The empowering reminder that you are already loved, chosen, and saved

This is for the woman who's tired of holding it all… and ready to surrender to the One who already did it all.

🎧 Listen in if you're ready to stop searching for a rescuer—and start living like you’ve already been rescued.

Becoming Her: Is It Time to Pivot My Business? 3 Signs God Might Be Nudging You

Welcome back to Made for Impact, my love.

If you’ve been feeling restless, misaligned, or uncertain in your business—this episode is for you.

Today, I’m getting honest about the whispers and nudges that often show up before a big shift. Whether you’ve outgrown your current offers, feel disconnected from your message, or are sensing God is calling you into something new—this conversation will help you recognize the signs it may be time to pivot.

I’m sharing:
✨ 3 key signs it’s time to shift direction in your business
✨ My personal journey of leaving behind what no longer aligned (even when it was “working”)
✨ Why growing spiritually sometimes means releasing good things
✨ How to take faithful action before the vision is clear
✨ What to do when you’re caught between what was and what’s next

This is for the faith-led entrepreneur in transition. The multi-passionate woman craving clarity. The mama who loves her business but feels something new stirring.

You are not stuck—you’re being refined.
And pivoting doesn’t mean failure… it means obedience.

Becoming Her: What to Do When the Vision Isn’t Clear Yet

Welcome back, my love, to Made for Impact.

In today’s raw and real solo episode, I’m opening up about something I’ve been sitting with lately—what I call “the sticky middle.” It’s that in-between season where you’re no longer who you used to be, but not quite yet where you’re going… or who God is calling you to become.

Whether you're pivoting in your business, stepping deeper into motherhood, or redefining your identity through faith, this episode is for you.

I’m sharing:
✨ What it feels like to leave behind an old identity (even one that was successful)
✨ The personal wrestle between hustle and Holy Spirit–led surrender
✨ Why I’m following new nudges, including a surprise announcement about a natural fertility certification
✨ How to keep moving forward even when you don’t have the full picture
✨ Why God works with movement, not perfection

This isn’t about the highlight reel. It’s about the sacred process—the pause, the pivot, the pruning.

So if you're in the sticky middle too—unsure, slow, messy, but still showing up—this one’s for you. I pray it encourages you to keep walking, one faithful step at a time.
