Description
Today’s episode is special. I had the joy of jumping onto my friend Melissa Hughes’ podcast, She Can Share, and the conversation was too rich not to bring home to The Messenger Movement community. Melissa and I share the kind of friendship where truth flows easily, joy shows up naturally, and Jesus stays at the center. Together, we dig into the real journey of becoming a messenger — the valleys, the mountaintops, the clarity, the confusion, the bravery, and the obedience that actually builds a Kingdom-led life.You’ll hear the messy middle of my own story: how God pulled the rug out from under my “perfect life,” how He met me supernaturally in my living room at 29, and how He turned a lifetime of striving, trauma, and achievement into a calling rooted in people, purpose, and discipleship in the marketplace.Melissa and I talk about the tension every Christian entrepreneur feels — wanting to honor God with your voice while also navigating visibility, influence, storytelling, and even money. We talk about the fear of what family might think, the cling of poverty mindsets, the beauty of generosity, and why fun and freedom are actually strategic in the Kingdom.If you’ve ever wondered, “Can I really say yes to this calling?” — this conversation is your answer.What You’ll Hear in This EpisodeThe moment God disrupted my life and rebuilt everything from the foundation of ChristHow I went from eight businesses without Jesus to a calling rooted fully in HimWhat to do when you’re multi-passionate and can’t seem to find “your one thing”Why clarity isn’t given — it’s activated through movementThe battle between visibility and false humilityHow to show your face online without making it about youThe truth about family pushback, resistance, and stepping into your story anywayKingdom stewardship vs. poverty thinking — and why generosity is the acceleratorThe idea of “false summits” and learning to acclimate to each new level God calls you toA simple money affirmation that shifts your posture into trust and flowKey Quotes from the Episode“Clarity comes in action. God trusts you to move when you’re aligned with Him.”“False humility hides what God gave you to reveal.”“Every failure is an acclimation point preparing you for the next elevation.”“Prosperity has two lenses: greedy or generous. Choose generosity.”“You answer to Abba — not your hometown, not your critics, and not your past.”Want to Turn Your Message Into a Movement?You’re not just here to learn — you’re here to rise.
