What It Means To Build A Business Around God - Madelyne Nunez

What Does It Really Mean to Build a Business Around God? In this episode, I sit down with Maddie, founder of MW Social Media Management, for a beautiful and honest conversation about entrepreneurship, faith, and what it looks like to surrender control to God — even in your business. Maddie shares how she went from being a stay-at-home teen mom to building a thriving social media agency over four years, and what it took to stop striving and start trusting. We talk about the burnout that comes from trying to control everything, the fear of losing clients, and the anxiety that can quietly take over when you run your own business. But at the heart of this episode is something deeper: what does it actually look like to center your work around the Lord? Maddie opens up about becoming more vocal about her faith on social media, letting go of the fear of what people might think, and how that shift changed everything — for her business, her identity, and her family. We also get into: * How prayer (yes, even in the car) can be your greatest business strategy * Why "striving" and social media can become an addiction in disguise * What it means to be the clay when God is the potter * Rediscovering your identity beyond motherhood * Trusting God's timing with your biggest, most "crazy" dreams If you've ever felt like you're running your business on fumes, white-knuckling your goals, or hiding your faith for fear of what others might think — this episode is for you.

Knowing God Truly As Your Father - Emerson Murdock

In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, Emerson Murdock opens up about the hidden struggles so many people quietly carry — identity, perfectionism, body image, people-pleasing, and trying to earn worth through performance. Together, we talk about what it really looks like to know God as a loving Father instead of just knowing about Him through religion, pressure, or expectations. This episode is for the person who feels exhausted trying to be enough, stuck in cycles of shame, or unsure of who they truly are. Through vulnerability, wisdom, and raw testimony, Emerson shares how encountering the kindness and presence of Jesus completely transformed the way she saw herself and her purpose. If you’ve been longing for freedom, healing, deeper intimacy with God, or simply the reminder that you are deeply loved by Him, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

God Saved My Life with Shaina Bravo

What does it look like when God takes a life that seems completely broken and turns it into something beautiful? In this episode, Tazh sits down with Shaina Bravo, a woman who grew up amid gang activity and cartel influence in Klamath Falls, Oregon, who experimented with drugs by fifth grade, battled addiction and homelessness as a young adult, and never had a model for what a healthy marriage or family could look like. But that's not where her story ends. Shaina shares how surrendering control to God - not just knowing who He is, but actually building a relationship with Him became the turning point that changed everything. From losing her dad (the one person who always said he was proud of her), to choosing to come home instead of staying stuck in the same town and patterns, to building two businesses and a marriage she once didn't believe in, Shaina's testimony is raw, real, and full of hope. This episode will challenge you to examine the words you speak over yourself, the weight you carry for others, and whether you're knowing about God or actually walking with Him. If you've ever felt like your past disqualifies you or like nothing is ever going to change, this one is for you. I’m so grateful you are here! Take a look at today’s show notes!

Faith In Action - You Are God's Masterpiece with Borum Ahn

We're blessed to speak with Borum Ahn who shares the story behind Faith in Action, a ministry dedicated to combating human trafficking and restoring survivors through faith, practical support, and community. The guest opens up about her own journey—from childhood trauma and trafficking in South Korea to healing, redemption, and purpose in the United States. After attending a gala with Wipe Every Tear, she recognized her own past as a survivor and felt called to help others find freedom. Through mission work in the Philippines, she now helps reach women in red-light districts with food, resources, and hope—offering a path to safe housing, education, and spiritual restoration. The conversation highlights the deep psychological impact of trauma, the challenge of breaking free from “comfort zones” of pain, and the transformative power of sharing one’s story. The episode also emphasizes the importance of godly community, the role of men in restoration, and how faith can redeem even the darkest experiences. Listeners are invited to support the upcoming gala and join the mission of bringing healing, dignity, and freedom to those affected by trafficking. I’m so grateful you are here!

Connection Unlocked - Shelby Descamps

Shelby shares how her journey through various jobs — from conservation corps and wildfire crews to restaurants — opened her eyes to a universal problem: people complain endlessly but avoid the real conversations that could actually create change. A pivotal leadership role co-leading a women's fire crew taught her firsthand how hard it is to give and receive feedback, and ultimately sparked her passion for helping people communicate better. Together, Tazh and Shelby unpack: * Why self-connection comes first — You can't show up authentically with others until you know your own values, needs, and boundaries. Journaling is a powerful starting point. * The fear underneath avoidance — When we skip hard conversations, it's not just disconnection from others; it's self-abandonment. * Curiosity as the antidote — Approaching difficult conversations with curiosity instead of defensiveness breaks down walls and opens the door to genuine understanding. * The "compliment sandwich" framework — A practical, time-tested method for delivering feedback that people can actually receive. * Identity vs. topic — Much of today's societal division isn't really about the issues at hand; it's identity clashing with identity. * How your connection with God shapes your connection with people — When you're aligned spiritually, it becomes easier to zoom out, extend grace, and engage others with love rather than ego. Shelby is currently opening introductory life coaching spots through Mind Body Authority, with a vision for future retreats that bring people together in nature — away from their phones and back into meaningful community.
