Ep. #16 Kicking Mr. Mediocrity Off Your Shoulder

Episode 16: Kicking Mr. Mediocrity Off Your Shoulder Have you ever heard that little voice in your head whispering: "You're not qualified." "You're too old." "You're too late." "Why even try?" In this episode of the Abundantly Favored Podcast, sisters Jenny and Shelley share a powerful lesson they learned years ago while attending sales school in Nashville—a lesson about a character called Mr. Mediocrity. Mr. Mediocrity isn't a real person, but his voice is one many of us know all too well. He's the voice of doubt, fear, insecurity, and limiting beliefs that tries to convince us we're not enough and keeps us from stepping into the life God has called us to live. Drawing inspiration from Exodus 4:12, we explore how to recognize those negative thoughts, compare them to God's truth, and stop allowing fear to become the narrator of our story. In this episode, we share 10 practical ways to kick Mr. Mediocrity off your shoulder, including: • How to recognize negative self-talk • Why every thought isn't necessarily true • Using Scripture to combat lies • Speaking to yourself the way God speaks to you • Replacing worst-case thinking with faith-filled expectation • Remembering God's faithfulness in your life • Choosing progress over perfection • Becoming the woman God created you to be If you've ever struggled with self-doubt, comparison, fear, or feeling stuck, this conversation will encourage you to replace lies with truth and move forward with confidence and faith. Remember: You don't have to believe everything you think. Mediocrity is not your calling. Abundance is. 📖 Scripture: Exodus 4:12 🎙️ Subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with a friend who needs a reminder of God's truth today. #AbundantlyFavored #FaithAndMindset #ChristianPodcast #WomenOfFaith #SpeakLife #MindsetMatters #FaithOverFear #PersonalGrowth #ChristianWomen #AbundantLiving

Ep. #14 Summer Habits That Actually Stick

Summer Habits That Actually Stick Why do we all start new habits with so much confidence? "This is the summer I'm going to..." and then life happens. In this episode of the Abundantly Favored Podcast, we're talking about why habits often don't last and how small, simple changes can create lasting transformation. From all-or-nothing thinking and perfectionism to unrealistic expectations, we'll uncover the common reasons we struggle to stay consistent—and how to break free from them. Inspired by Galatians 6:9, we're reminded that faithful consistency matters more than perfection: "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." We'll discuss practical strategies like habit stacking from Atomic Habits by James Clear and share easy ways to connect healthy habits to routines you're already doing every day. Whether it's adding prayer time to your morning routine, preparing healthy foods ahead of time, taking daily walks, drinking more water, practicing gratitude, or creating healthier boundaries with your phone, tiny faithful steps can lead to meaningful change. Most importantly, we'll explore how habits aren't about earning worthiness—they're about becoming the woman God created you to be. ✨ In this episode, you'll learn: * Why habits often fail * The power of habit stacking * How tiny habits create lasting results * The connection between identity and consistency * Simple ways to build spiritual, mindset, and physical habits this summer Summer Habit Challenge: Choose: ✔️ One mindset habit ✔️ One spiritual habit ✔️ One physical habit Keep it simple. Stay consistent. Trust God with the harvest. Closing Question: What's one habit that helps you feel more grounded and peaceful? Connect with us, share your answer, and join the conversation.

Ep. #12 Why You Suddenly See Red Cars Everywhere: What Are You Training Your Mind to Notice?

Have you ever noticed that once someone points out red cars… suddenly you see them EVERYWHERE? In this episode of Abundantly Favored, Shelley and Jenny unpack the powerful connection between your focus, your thoughts, and the life you begin to notice around you. What started as a fun “red car challenge” turns into a deeper conversation about awareness, mental focus, and the way our brains are constantly filtering what we see. Using Philippians 4:8 as the foundation, they explore how your brain naturally searches for evidence to support whatever you repeatedly focus on — whether that’s stress, fear, gratitude, growth, or God’s goodness. You’ll hear real-life examples about motherhood, comparison, health, relationships, mindset, and the thoughts that quietly shape our expectations and words every day. This episode will challenge you to pay attention to what you’re training your mind to notice — and what you keep saying about yourself. Scripture: Philippians 4:8 (NIV) “Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” Follow, share, and join us for more faith, mindset, and encouragement. https://canva.link/lookforthegood30daychallenge Join our Inner Circle at abundantlyfavored.com Get our book...
