Ep. 15 - Holding Back in Life or Business? Step Into God-Given Boldness - B.I.G.

Ep. 16 - Burned Out and Overcommitted? Aligning with God's Plan Through Boundaries and Purpose

That thing stealing your peace… it isn’t your schedule… it’s your “yes” In this powerful and honest episode of Faith Fueled Business Minded Women, we step into a conversation that might feel a little too familiar: overcommitting, over giving, and quietly running on empty while trying to be everything for everyone. We’re talking boundaries - but not in the way you’ve heard before. Because let’s be real—when you hear “boundaries,” does it feel harsh? Restrictive? Like building walls you’re not sure Jesus would actually approve of? Now here’s the twist… What if instead of rigid walls, you began to see your life through the lens of “banks”—a gentle, Spirit-led guide that keeps you flowing in alignment with God’s purpose instead of crashing into burnout? This episode dives into the tension between saying yes and honoring God’s direction… between being available and being obedient. You’ll hear real-life moments of: * Staying too long where God already said “go” * Carrying things that were never yours to hold * Confusing good opportunities with God assignments * And the hard truth about saying “yes” Because here’s the question we can’t ignore… 👉 Are you operating in obedience—or exhaustion? Through faith-filled storytelling, biblical wisdom, and a little bit of playful back-and-forth, we unpack what it really means to: * Protect your time, energy, and calling * Discern what is yours to carry (and what is not) * Stay in your God-given “lane” without guilt * And trust that boundaries aren’t rejection… they’re alignment There’s also a deeper layer we don’t shy away from—how a lack of boundaries can impact your family, your health, and even your witness as a believer. This conversation will challenge you, stretch you, and maybe even lovingly call you out—but it will also remind you of this truth: ✨ You are not called to do everything. You are called to do what God asked you to do. ✨ If you’ve been feeling stretched thin, pulled in too many directions, or quietly wondering why your peace feels out of reach… this episode is your invitation to come back into alignment. To release what was never yours. To reclaim what is. And to walk forward—Dented, Not Defeated—with clarity, confidence, and Christ at the center. 🎧 Press play… this might be exactly what your soul has been needing.

Ep. 15 - Holding Back in Life or Business? Step Into God-Given Boldness - B.I.G.

What if the life you’ve been praying for… requires a version of you that feels just a little too bold? In this episode of Faith Fueled Business Minded Women, we’re leaning all the way into what it means to Live Life B.I.G.—not in the loud, flashy, “look at me” way the world pushes… but in a deeply rooted, faith-first, God-honoring kind of bold. Because let’s be honest for a second… How many times have you felt the nudge? The idea. The calling. The “there’s more for you” whisper from God… …and then immediately followed it up with: “Who am I to do that?” “What if I fail?” “What will people think?” Yeah. Same. This conversation gently (and maybe just a little lovingly) calls that out. We’re talking about the tension between playing it safe and walking in obedience, between shrinking back and stepping forward—even when your voice shakes, your plan isn’t perfect, and your confidence feels… questionable at best. Because here’s the truth: Living small doesn’t protect you—it limits the impact God designed you to have. And if you’re a working mom, a single mom building something from the ground up, or a woman trying to balance faith, family, and future… this one is going to hit home. Inside this episode, we explore: * What it really means to live “B.I.G.” through a faith lens * How fear disguises itself as logic (and keeps you stuck) * Why bold obedience matters more than perfect execution * The quiet, powerful ways your everyday faith creates lasting legacy This isn’t about pressure—it’s about permission. Permission to show up fully, trust God deeply, and stop dimming what He placed inside of you. Because you’re not here by accident. And you’re definitely not called to live small. So if something in your spirit has been stirring lately… If you’ve been craving more alignment, more courage, more purpose… Press play. Send this to a friend who’s been playing small. Save this for the moment doubt tries to creep back in. This might be the nudge you’ve both been waiting for!

Ep. 14 - Not Enough Time, Not Enough Energy Yet Trusting God in the Chaos

Actually - the moments you thought made you a “bad mom”… are actually the ones your kids would treasure most! In this honest, laugh-out-loud, and unexpectedly heart-tugging episode of Faith Fueled Business Minded Women, we’re pulling back the curtain on the “not-so-proud” motherhood moments—the hiding in the bathroom for five minutes of peace, the popcorn-for-dinner nights, the stretched-too-thin seasons where you wondered if you were getting anything right. If you’ve ever felt like you were failing at motherhood, falling short in your career, or barely holding it together while trying to honor God in all of it… this conversation will meet you right where you are. Because here’s the tension we don’t talk about enough: You can love Jesus deeply… and still feel like you’re dropping the ball daily. Through real-life stories of single motherhood, working multiple jobs, raising kids without a nearby support system, and navigating the pressure to “do it all,” this episode gently reframes what success actually looks like in a faith-filled home. You’ll hear how the moments that once felt like failure—simple meals, survival-mode decisions, imperfect routines—became the very memories that shaped strong, faith-rooted, capable adults. And somewhere in the middle of the laughter and the stories, you’ll be reminded of this truth: God’s grace was covering you then… and it’s covering you now. This episode is for the working Christian parent, the business-minded mom, and every single woman trying to build a meaningful life without losing her faith (or her mind) in the process. If you’ve been carrying quiet guilt, questioning your impact, or wondering if you’re doing enough… you don’t want to miss this one. Because you are never just “getting by.” You are building something that lasts. Dented—but never defeated.

Ep. 13 - Overwhelmed by Miscommunication at Work? Faith-Led Leadership Clarity That Builds Trust

Ever feel like you’re carrying expectations no one actually said out loud… but somehow, you’re still responsible for meeting them? Yeah—this one might hit a little close to home. In this episode of Faith Fueled Business Minded Women, we’re diving into the quiet tension of unspoken expectations in leadership—the kind that slowly builds frustration, fuels burnout, and leaves everyone wondering what went wrong.  Through real-life stories, a few “whew, that’s too real” moments, and truth rooted in faith, we unpack how unclear communication, misplaced assumptions, and misaligned priorities can quietly derail even the strongest teams (and homes).  But here’s the shift: what if leadership isn’t about doing more, but about being clearer, healthier, and anchored in Christ? This conversation will challenge you to check your own expectations, lead with intention, and create space for honesty, trust, and growth without compromising your faith, your family, or your peace. If you’ve ever felt unseen, overworked, or just plain tired of guessing what people need from you… take a breath, friend.

Ep. 12 - Trying to Fix Everyone Else? Faith-Fueled Leadership Starts With You

In this honest and faith-fueled conversation, Kennette and Jen unpack the real question behind leadership—whose responsibility is it, really? What starts as a conversation about fixing teams quickly turns into a deeper look at self-awareness, communication, and the quiet ways leaders can unintentionally create confusion, frustration, and disconnect. With a mix of real-life business experience, Biblical truth, and a little humor, this episode challenges “fix them” mindsets and replaces it with clarity, ownership, and God-centered leadership. Because the truth is… most people don’t show up wanting to fail—but without vision, communication, and trust, even the best people will struggle to succeed. Here are just a few nuggets: * Leadership doesn’t start with fixing others—it starts with checking yourself first * If people are confused, it’s usually not a capability issue * “Clarity is kindness” isn’t soft—it’s necessary * Godly leadership is vertical first, not just horizontal And so much more!
