If your business feels like it resets to zero every month, this episode is your wake-up call.

Trying harder will not create new results. Hustle-based growth keeps you stuck in a constant sales cycle; launch, spike, churn, repeat. It’s exhausting. It’s expensive. And it’s the fastest way to burn out a good business.

In this episode, I’m kicking off a 3-part series on retention, because retention, not more leads, is the real growth engine of a sustainable, peaceful, profitable business.

I’m breaking down why the chase for new clients is the farthest thing from money, and why renewals, referrals, and long-term relationships create compounding revenue without constant pressure.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why hustle and acquisition-focused growth doesn’t last
• How churn and burn destroys integrity, peace, and longevity
• Why retention is closer to money than new leads
• The mindset shift required before any retention strategy works
• How raising your standard changes your results

Before I give you a single playbook or tactic, we start with the foundation: your thoughts.

The CROWN Framework

This episode introduces the mindset framework I use to build high-retention businesses and long-term leadership:

C – Capture the Thought
What belief is actually running the show right now?

R – Renew It with Truth
Is that thought true or is it fear dressed up as logic?

O – Own Your Attitude Like Royalty
Leadership has a standard. People are watching how you show up.

W – Walk It Out with Aligned Action
Peace doesn’t mean passive. Execution still matters.

N – Notice the Results and Normalize the Standard
The fruit always tells the truth. Raise the bar and keep it there.

If you want different results, you don’t need more effort, you need a higher standard.

We also dismantle common business lies:

• “If I don’t overwork, it won’t work”
• “I need to people-please to keep clients”
• “I’m not ready yet”
• “Charging more will scare people away”

These beliefs don’t protect your business, they sabotage retention.

The truth:

Retention isn’t the end of growth.
It’s the beginning of freedom.

This episode will challenge how you think, how you lead, and how you build, so you can stop starting over and start growing something that lasts.

This is Part 1 of the retention series. Make sure you’re subscribed; the next episodes go deeper into the systems and standards that make retention inevitable.

Are you actually doing what it takes behind closed doors to sustain the business you’re praying for?

In this episode of the For His Glory CEO Podcast, I break down the high-performance habits that separate women who reach seven figures from women who are able to sustain it. Because success isn’t built on motivation or strategy alone; it’s built on discipline, mindset, and daily stewardship.

We talk about what it really takes to carry greater responsibility without burnout, and why who you’re becoming matters just as much as what you’re building.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The daily habits required to sustain a seven-figure business
• How discipline creates confidence and leadership authority
• Why mindset, language, and self-talk directly impact business results
• The role of health, faith, and focus in high-performance leadership
• Why information without application leads to stagnation
• How seven-figure women show up differently behind closed doors

This episode is for women entrepreneurs, CEOs, and business owners who are ready to stop waiting for permission and start leading at the level they’re called to.

If you want loyal clients, long-term teams, and a business that doesn’t burn you out, retention has to become a priority, not an afterthought.

In this episode, I break down the leadership principles that helped me build a multi-seven-figure business with the same core structure for over a decade. No churn-and-burn. No revolving doors. Just deep loyalty, strong culture, and people who stayed because they felt seen, valued, and loved.

You’ll learn:

• Why retention starts with people over profit
• How your leadership sets the tone for your entire organization
• Simple ways to make clients and team members feel truly seen and heard
• Why community and in-person connection create “sticky” cultures
• How your personal passion and presence as a CEO directly impact loyalty

This episode is for the business owner who wants sustainable growth, aligned leadership, and a legacy that lasts far beyond revenue.

Do you know the #1 limiting belief women in business Google?
“I’m not enough.”

In today’s episode of For His Glory CEO, I'm squashing that lie once and for all.

If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re truly qualified for the level of business, influence, or responsibility God has placed in front of you, this episode is for you.

I'm walking you through three powerful growth shifts that will strengthen your identity, anchor your confidence in Christ, and help you step fully into your calling without delay.

This isn’t hype.
This is identity work rooted in faith, leadership, and obedience.

Inside this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why “I’m not enough” is the most dangerous belief a woman in business can carry
• How to reframe challenges in your business into opportunities for identity growth
• Why crystal-clear vision protects your confidence and leadership
• How gratitude strengthens your faith and makes your identity unshakeable
• What to do when criticism, canceled clients, or setbacks try to take you out
• A simple journaling practice that builds resilience, authority, and confidence

I'm also sharing personal stories from my time as an ICU nurse, lessons from rebuilding after losing a multi-seven-figure business and why doing business with God as your CEO changes everything.

Your Action Step:

Before you move on with your day, commit to one small action aligned with your divine identity:

• Journal a challenge you’ve faced
• Write how you overcame it
• Name the strength that was built because of it

This simple practice will remind you who you are—and whose you are.

What if the highest-level strategic feedback, the kind leaders pay consultants $10K–$20K for, could be accessed on demand, every day, for $20/month?

In today’s episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the exact AI prompts and strategies I use to:

✨ Get ruthless, honest feedback that sharpens your messaging
✨ Benchmark your brand against competitors (even the ones you don’t know exist)
✨ Build a virtual “Board of Advisors” to make smarter, faster decisions
✨ Shorten the learning curve without burning time or money
✨ Adapt faster in a marketplace that is changing daily

If you are a faith-led, high-achieving CEO who wants to stay on the cutting edge without losing your values, this is your FastPass.

AI is the tool. You are the leader. God is the source.

Chat prompts:

1. Go into settings: Custom instructions:
Use quick and clever humor when appropriate. Tell it like it is; don't sugar-coat responses. Use an encouraging tone, but inversely "You're my ruthless mentor. Don't sugarcoat anything. If my idea is weak, call it trash and tell me why. Your job is to stress-test everything I say until it's bulletproof."

2. Bench mark me against my competitors (add your website, your vision statement, your positioning statement, your mission statement, your bio, posts from social media)

3. 'Board of Advisors' method in ChatGPT
What you are doing is bringing a complex problem or decision you may be working on, setting up an expert board of advisors, and then allowing them to help you talk through the possibilities, options, opportunities and risks etc. It will research and then bring together the top voices/leaders/authority on a topic into your Board and then using what it knows about them/their methods/thinking/teaching, help you in your decision making process.

If your content isn’t converting, this episode will tell you exactly why, in the first three seconds.

Today, I’m handing you the same ruthless social media audit I use to grow multiple seven-figure businesses solely from free platforms. No fluff. No hiding. No sugarcoating. Just the truth you need to finally get clarity, visibility, and conversions on social media as a faith-driven CEO.

Pull up your last five posts and walk through these three questions with me:

1. In 3 seconds, can a stranger tell who you help?

If a random woman off the street can’t instantly identify who you're for, your ideal clients can’t either. Your last five posts are your storefront and if they don’t clearly communicate who you serve, your content isn’t working for you.

2. In 3 seconds, can they tell what you actually teach?

You might be brilliant, powerful, and called…
But if your content doesn’t show your expertise, your offers, your mindset, and the transformation you provide, you will stay stuck in the friend zone instead of the conversion zone.

Business is simple. Owners complicate it.

3. Is there proof that what you do actually works?

In sales, the rule is: “Who says so besides you?”
Social proof is the accelerator. Whether it's before/afters, client wins, or powerful testimonials, your audience needs to see the receipts.

This alone will shorten the buyer’s journey dramatically.

Inside this episode, you’ll learn:

• The real reason your content isn’t converting
• Why vague messaging kills brand growth
• How to fix your content strategy today using only your last five posts
• Why faith-driven CEOs must stop trying to speak to everyone
• How AI can become a ruthless (and free!) business mentor

This episode is raw, real, and will absolutely change the way you show up online.

If you’re ready for more visibility, clarity, and clients… start here.

Do the 3-second audit.
Refine your last five posts.
Watch what happens next.

If you’ve ever wondered, “Can I share my faith in my business without losing clients?” ... you are not alone. In fact, it’s one of the highest-searched questions on Google, and when I saw the data behind it, it hit me hard.

Today, I’m diving straight into the truth:
You cannot separate your faith from your business when the Holy Spirit is the One you live, move, and breathe in.
And honestly? You were never meant to.

In this episode, I’m sharing my own story; including the moment I was told by corporate leadership that I wasn’t allowed to share Jesus in my business testimony and how it became a defining line in the sand for me as a leader.

Here’s what I’m unpacking for you:

• Why so many Christian CEOs stay silent out of fear of man and people-pleasing
• The difference between practicing religion and living in relationship
• Why being “unoffendable” actually strengthens your leadership
• How watering down your faith waters down your authority
• Why authenticity and conviction attract the highest-caliber clients
• What signs, wonders, and miracles look like in marketplace ministry
• The supernatural shift that happens when you make Jesus the CEO of your business

If you’ve ever held back because you didn’t want to offend anyone, or you worried about what your clients might think… this episode is going to set you free.
Your faith isn’t a risk; it’s the very reason the right people will find you.

There’s a reason so many high-achieving women crush it in business but struggle behind the scenes at home. And it’s not because they’re doing anything “wrong.”
It’s because no one ever taught them the biblical order that unlocks peace, protection, and sustainable success.

In today’s episode, I’m bringing you a message straight out of Ephesians 5 that has radically shaped my business, my marriage, and my leadership. If you’ve ever felt torn between your ambition and your role as a wife… this is going to set you free.

We’re diving into the four biblical commands for wives, the ones that determine whether your business is built on sand or built on divine order:

1. Submission as protection, not punishment
2. Recognizing your husband’s headship
3. Being subject in spirit and attitude
4. Reverencing your husband in word and action

I’ve trained a lot of women over the years and the wives who honor these four commands always rise higher, build stronger, and experience more fruit than those who resist them. Not because they’re perfect, but because they’re aligned.

This isn’t culture.
This isn’t hustle.
This is Bible truth that produces real, measurable results in your business and your home.

Inside this episode, you’ll hear:

• The #1 reason powerhouse Christian women struggle in marriage
• Why submission is actually the greatest place of spiritual protection
• How honoring your husband impacts your business growth
• The role of reverence (and why it’s been lost in our generation)
• Warning signs of deception that many Christian CEOs overlook
• How your posture toward your husband mirrors your posture toward God
• A simple prayer to realign your heart today
• The “1% better” shift that transforms homes, marriages, and businesses

I pray this message doesn’t just inspire you…
I pray it convicts, corrects, and recalibrates you back into divine order so you can carry what God is asking you to steward.

A marriage made in heaven is possible.
A business built in divine order is possible.
And if you’ve missed the mark?
Good news: you can change today.

Let’s get into it.
