  • Stop Hiding & Start Building
    Dec 17 2025

    Can I make a confession? I don't know if as an adult I ever got a chance to stop playing hide and seek. I just got really good at changing my hiding spot.

    WHERE ARE YOU HIDING?

    Instead of behind the cabinet, I hide behind conference calls. Instead of behind the couch, it's a perfectly curated Instagram account. Instead of boldly stepping into what God called me to, I've been staying "safe"—but really just staying stuck.

    If that sounds like you, this episode is your wake-up call.

    I'm sharing how I built a business on self-reliance and control—and how God used Moses and Jethro to show me there's a better way.

    IN THIS EPISODE:

    • How hiding became my identity (and probably yours too)
    • The 6th grade group project that taught me I didn't need anyone
    • What Jethro told Moses that changed everything—you can't do this alone
    • Why rest isn't passive—it reveals the parts of you that you've been struggling with
    • You're not burnt out because you're weak. You're burnt out because you've been hiding.
    • How transformation happens when you come out of hiding
    • What it means to be a marketplace ministry and build lighthouses in a dark age

    🚀 COMING JANUARY 12, 2025:

    Price Like You Mean It Workshop — A 90-minute live workshop to help you stop undercharging and finally name your worth without apologizing.

    If you're tired of cringing when you say your rate or discounting because you're scared of hearing "no," this workshop is for you.

    Stay tuned for registration details!

  • Transform Your Prayer Life: 7 Steps to Intimacy with God
    Nov 19 2025

    Transform Your Prayer Life: 6 Steps to Intimacy with God

    If you've ever felt like your prayers aren't making it past the ceiling—or you don't have the right words to talk to God—this episode is for you.

    But prayer isn't supposed to be a barrier between you and God. It's supposed to be a language of love—and just like any language, it takes time, repetition, and practice.

    In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own prayer journey and sharing the six steps that transformed prayer from a religious routine into a real, intimate relationship with God.

    YOU'LL LEARN:

    • Why the enemy wants to keep you intimidated by prayer
    • The moment I realized prayer isn't about having the right words
    • How to answer when God wakes you up at midnight with no clear direction
    • What happened when I obeyed God's prompting with a homeless man in DC
    • The difference between praying for show and praying from the heart
    • How to recognize divine appointments in the chaos of everyday life

    WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH:

    • Six practical steps to build authentic intimacy with God through prayer
    • Freedom from comparing your prayer life to others
    • Confidence that God hears you—whether you pray two sentences or twenty minutes
    • Understanding that prayer happens in the interruptions, not just the quiet times
    • Your next kingdom assignment: being vigilant for God's prompts throughout the day

    TIMESTAMPS:

    [00:37] - The enemy's tactic to silence your prayer life

    [03:01] - How I became a "prayer warrior" (it didn't happen overnight)

    [05:23] - When God wakes you up at 1 AM and you don't know what to pray

    [07:46] - Step 1: Stop comparing your prayer life to others

    [43:13] - The three trash cans story: when obedience inconveniences your schedule

    [45:31] - Prayer in the chaos: God speaks when dinner is burning

    [47:51] - A prayer declaration over your life

    SCRIPTURES MENTIONED:

    • Psalm 145:18 - The Lord is close to all who call upon him in truth
    • Matthew 6:33 - Seek the kingdom of God first, and all these things will be added
    • Matthew 25:40 - Whatever you did for the least of these, you did for me
    • Acts 4:13 - Being ordinarily bold so people know we were with Jesus

  • Spiritual Wanderers: Why Some Christians Never Arrive
    Oct 22 2025

    The Heart Test: Why the Israelites Never Made It (And What That Means for Us)

    The Israelites saw miracles. They experienced deliverance. But an entire generation never entered the Promised Land—not because of their sin, but because of their unbelief.

    In this episode, I'm breaking down the sobering warning in Hebrews 3–4 and what it means for us today. If you've been delivered from your old life but feel stuck in the wilderness, this episode will challenge and encourage you to examine your heart, remember God's faithfulness, and hold fast to belief.

    You'll learn:

    • Why unbelief—not disobedience—kept the Israelites out of rest
    • The connection between Eve's doubt in the Garden and Israel's doubt in the wilderness
    • What it means to "take up your cross daily" and guard your heart
    • How trials expose what we truly believe about God
    • The difference between starting the faith and finishing it
    • Practical ways to soften your heart and resist the pattern of unbelief

    WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH:

    • A deeper understanding of Hebrews 3–4 and God's warning about unbelief
    • Clarity on where you are in your spiritual journey (Egypt, wilderness, or promise)
    • Practical tools to guard your heart and build belief in the waiting

    Chapters:

    • 0:00 Introduction and Personal Storm
    • 3:15 Unbelief and Obedience
    • 6:30 The Wilderness Experience
    • 10:00 Trusting God's Heart
    • 13:45 The Role of Community and Accountability
    • 17:00 Gratitude and Faith
    • 20:30 Closing Thoughts and Prayer

    MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:

    Relevant Scriptures:

    • Hebrews 3:6, 14; 4:1-13
    • Psalm 78:19-22; 95:11
    • Deuteronomy 8:2-3; 10:23
    • Exodus 17:7
    • Romans 10:9-10
    • Matthew 7:21-23
