Hey Friend!
Do you find yourself making excuses about the work you need to get done? Does it all feel big and hard? Are you struggling with peace? Do you feel anxious or confused about the next steps you need to take in your business? Do you find yourself rationalizing why all the fleshly things are priority over spiritual things? If so, it may be that you are in your own way, but you are not alone.
It can be difficult to identify when you're in your own way and even more so to fix it. We become our own lid and the roadblock that keeps us from moving forward. That's why I'm sharing with you the three things that helped me put an end to getting in my way.
In today's episode, I get super personal and vulnerable about my struggle in the past few months, experiencing growing pains and being uncomfortable being in the middle. I have found that if I'm confused, it's typically self-created.
So how do you go from confusion and struggle to things being easy and simple? Listen in so can I help you find the clarity you long for. It won't mean that things are never tough, but they can be peaceful.
I pray this blesses you!
Xo,
Stef

Hey, Friend!
Getting quality 5-star reviews on your podcast should not be an afterthought because not only do great reviews grow your show and get you higher rankings in the Apple Podcast algorithm, but this is also where others go to decide if they want to listen to, and even more so, buy from you.
There's a strategy to getting these types of reviews, and today I'm sharing three ways I was able to get over a thousand 5-star reviews on my podcast, and it's easier than you may think!
Whether you are getting ready to launch, you have launched, or you need to relaunch, this episode will give you tactical, punchy, and simple steps to getting those reviews so you can build your reach and grow your podcast.
I pray this blesses you!

Hey Friend!
"If the only way that your work matters for eternity is because you can use your job to 'share the gospel,' then frankly, you're wasting the vast majority of your time."
You may need to read that again! In fact, you may want to listen to this episode twice because my good friend Jordan Raynor is back with some explosive truths that will leave you feeling liberated to do your work, all of your work, in a way that brings meaning and value in a whole new way.
In this special guest episode, we are talking about the sacredness of secular work and how every moment of your life matters for eternity. We are diving deep into what Jesus and the Bible actually say about The Great Commission as well as the truth around some deep-rooted beliefs that may not be founded in the Word of God.
I am such a fan of Jordan's and own almost every one of his books. I believe he stands at this crossroads of theology and relatability and am so excited for you to be encouraged to see how God cares about a hundred percent of your time at work and how you can reframe some of these faulty belief systems to be truly aligned with God's will.
I pray this blesses you!

Hey Friend!
I have read the comments and heard your cries for help and the one thing that comes up consistently is...consistency! How do we stay consistent when it comes to publishing another podcast episode, coming up with more content, another idea or one more post?
I get the struggle, but when we're not consistent, we don't grow our business the way we want to, we're not front of mind with our people and we're not creating that long list of fruitful episodes that are evergreen and continue to work for us. Most importantly, we don't know what God is doing with the work that He has called us to do.
In this episode, I'm sharing four tips on how you can be more consistent with your content and we begin by looking at what the Bible has to say about it.
Whether it's a life circumstance, boredom, an excuse, or anything in between, it's time to remedy this issue and get you consistent so you can have continued growth in your business.
I pray this blesses you!

Stef

Hey Friend!
I was completely exhausted from constantly feeling tied to my phone. I spent hours and hours on social media every day, posting and scrolling while missing what was happening right in front of me, convinced that social media was the way (the only way!) to grow my business. I felt ruled by this little device and I didn't know how to control it.
Our phones are a luxury, to be sure, and they can be used for good, especially when it comes to running a business. But there's a fine line we tend to cross over where our relationship with our phone becomes unhealthy. It's easy to be completely obsessed and dare I say? Addicted! This used to be my story.
In today's guest episode, you'll hear my conversation with my friend Emily McDermott on her podcast Moms Overcoming Overwhelm.
Listen in as I share a bit of my journey of how I found my way from overwhelm and struggling to finally becoming the good, present wife, mom and business owner I truly wanted to be.
Grab a notebook and pen, throw your phone out of reach and write down these tactical tips on how you can begin to develop a healthy relationship with your phone, or at least, a healthier one, take baby steps to reduce dependence and create realistic boundaries. It's time to ask the deeper questions and take back your time so you can be present, serve others and make an impact for God's glory.
I pray this blesses you!

Hey Friend!
Do you ever feel like your entire life is being run by that little hunk of metal in your hand? Do you find yourself constantly reaching for it, checking social media, scrolling and clicking, scrolling and clicking? You put it down, only to pick it up again... and repeat. Are you so sick of feeling like your phone has completely taken over everything but don't know how to break free from this vicious cycle?
I know what it's like to feel helpless over this kind of addiction. The first thing you need to realize is that the highest-paid engineers in the world are working hard every day to keep you fixated on that little device for their own benefit. But there is hope for you to find freedom and have peace again.
Today, I'm sharing three easy steps to create a social media detox. Whether you want to do a small detox or are ready for a complete overhaul, this will help you create boundaries that feel right for you.

Hey Friend!
Maybe you've been looking at your downloads and are freaking out just a little. Podcast downloads are down and it has you feeling like a failure, ready to throw in the towel, like all hope is lost, and maybe like you should give up.
Before you call it quits and give up on the dream you've worked so hard for, go grab a fresh cup of coffee and listen closely...
It's not you.
No really, it's Apple. They recently released iOS 17, and with that came a shift due to changes made in Apple Podcast.
In today's episode I'm sharing with you how we, as podcasters, can actually utilize the iOS 17 changes to our benefit. Where to look for accurate podcast metrics, and what to do with this new data. It's important for you to know what's happening behind the scenes so you don't get discouraged but continue to do the thing God has called you to do.
I pray this blesses you!

Hey Friend!
Have you ever considered working with your spouse, a friend, or having a business partner of any kind, and wondered how or if that would even work? Maybe you're already working with someone but would like to learn to do it more effectively and run your business more smoothly.
Well, I have a treat for you today and am so excited to introduce you to a couple whose values align so much with mine.
Meet my amazing guests, Stephen and Chelsea Diaz.
Stephen and Chelsea are founders of The Rainmaker Method, where they help others not only find a path to financial freedom but time freedom as well. They also run the incredible podcast called The Rainmaker Show.
Lean in as they teach us how to effectively run a business with your spouse (or business partner) and learn to listen to one another. They also share the nitty-gritty of the pros and cons of working together and give us some great calendar hacks that help you better communicate and create healthy boundaries as you work together so you can create a seamless, or almost seamless (let's be real) workflow that allows your business to thrive.
I pray this blesses you!
