Ep. 44 The DNA of a Called CEO — How Christian Women Build Business From Identity Not Hustle

Ep. 51 Become Her How Rachel Lanter Found Her Kingdom Identity Through Hard Seasons

Become Her: How Rachel Lanter Found Her Kingdom Identity Through Hard Seasons You've walked through a hard season that left you questioning everything you thought you knew about yourself. You've lost your confidence. You've struggled to hear God's voice clearly. You feel suspended between who you were and who God is calling you to become. Deep down, you know God has called you to build something — but you're not sure where to start, how to position yourself, or how to build it in a way that's actually sustainable. If any of that sounds like you, this conversation is for you. In this episode, Monique sits down with Rachel Lanter — Christian minister, speaker, author, and communication strategist — for an honest conversation about rebuilding your identity, hearing God again, and stepping into the kingdom purpose you've been carrying. Rachel shares her own journey from a young entrepreneurial spirit working alongside her father in business, through her own wilderness season, into discovering who God truly created her to be. Rachel is the author of Become Her, a transformational framework built around four seasons of becoming the woman God created you to be: Daughter, Maiden, Bride, and Queen. Written from the middle of her own valley season, this book gives you language for the season you're in right now, and a biblical roadmap for what God is actually doing through it. Rachel is also the founder of The Lioness Woman Ministries and host of Kingdom Encounter Thursdays, where she ministers and equips believers through the Word of God each week. If this conversation encouraged you, we'd love for you to leave a review and share it with another woman walking through her own hard season.

Ep. 50 Emotional Numbness: The Silent Struggle of Driven Christian Women (Part 1)

Emotional Numbness: The Silent Struggle of Driven Christian Women (Part 1) You keep showing up. You keep leading. You keep holding everyone else together. But somewhere along the way, you stopped feeling it, the joy, the excitement, even the pain. You're functioning, but you're not really there, and you can't remember the last time you laughed from your belly. If you're a high-capacity, high-achieving Christian woman who has been carrying so much for so long that you've quietly disconnected from yourself, this episode is for you. Monique unpacks what emotional numbness really is, why the woman who keeps fixing, rescuing, serving, and leading is often the one who goes numb the most, and how God meets that numbness, not with shame, but with tenderness. Rooted in Isaiah 61 and the story of Elijah, this is Part 1 of a two-part conversation on emotional healing. 🎙️ Follow the podcast: @thecalledceopodcast Connect with me: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecalledceopodcast?igsh=MTl2NzBwNmtpMWZzNg%3D%3D&utm_source=qr 📝 Read more on Substack: https://substack.com/@thecalledceo?r=88u7sn&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=stories&shareImageVariant=image 📅 Book a free discovery call: https://tidycal.com/moniquehackett/discovery-call

Ep.49 Self-Reliance: The Hidden Sin Blocking Your Breakthrough

Self-Reliance: The Hidden Sin Blocking Your Breakthrough Do you feel fueled and driven, always finding a way to make things happen… but exhausted from carrying it all alone? If you often move fast on ideas, execute before you pray, or find yourself asking God to bless decisions you’ve already made instead of asking Him to lead — this episode is for you. In today’s episode, Monique unpacks self-reliance: the subtle pattern that can quietly move God from the center of your life and your business, even when you love Him deeply. Through the stories of Abraham, Sarah, and Moses, Monique shows how good intentions and clear vision can still lead us into our own timing instead of God’s. She shares a personal, vulnerable testimony of what self-reliance has cost her, and walks you through practical signs to recognize this pattern in yourself — plus the simple daily practice that shifts everything. If you’re a high-capacity Christian woman rebuilding after a hard season, learning to lead your business without leaving God out of the process, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.

Ep.48 Leaving Everything to Obey God: How Kate Benson Lost It All and Found Her True Identity and Purpose

Leaving Everything to Obey God: How Kate Benson Lost It All and Found Her True Identity and Purpose   Have you been high achieving your whole life… but deep down you know that what you have built has been in your own strength and not God's? Have you found yourself in a hard season wondering why God is not fixing your situation… not realising He is more interested in fixing YOU? This episode is for you. Kate Benson was a high performing professional living in the UK for 15 years. Career at the top. Car. The lifestyle. But underneath it all — £20,000 in debt, a broken relationship, and a faith that was religion without relationship. Then God spoke through the book of Genesis. And what He asked her to do… left everyone around her thinking she had lost her mind. Kate packed up everything and moved back to Nigeria with nothing but obedience. No money. No plan. Just God. What followed was one of the most honest testimonies of what it truly looks like when God strips a high capacity woman of everything she built in her own strength… and rebuilds her identity, her relationship with money, and her purpose from the ground up. If you have ever wondered why God is allowing your hard season… this conversation will shift something on the inside of you. In This Episode We Cover: - The radical obedience that changed Kate's life and what God said through the book of Genesis - What the stripping season actually felt like for a high performing woman used to being in control - Why God is more interested in sorting YOU out than sorting out your circumstances - Breaking free from serving money as an idol and what Kingdom stewardship really looks like - How a business was born in the most unlikely and broken season - Why you cannot skip the pain to get to the healing - What a Called CEO truly looks like according to Kate Connect With Kate: 📲 Instagram: @lifebykatebenson 📖 Seven Day Guide — How to Conquer Self Doubt and Own Your Voice:  https://app.paperbell.com/checkout/packages/159251   Connect With Monique: 📞 Free Discovery Call: https://tidycal.com/moniquehackett/discovery-call 📲 Instagram: @thecalledceopodcast 📝 Substack: https://substack.com/@thecalledceo?r=88u7sn&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=stories&shareImageVariant=image   ⭐ Enjoyed this episode?

Ep. 47 Why High Capacity Christian Women Struggle With Confidence — And How God Rebuilds It

Why High Capacity Christian Women Struggle With Confidence — And How God Rebuilds It   You have achieved things most people only dream about. You have carried responsibilities that would have broken others. You have figured out problems… adapted… and kept moving forward!! So why does THIS feel so hard?? Why does the moment God calls you to step into something new… something visible… something that requires you to show up in a bigger way… Why does that same capable woman suddenly freeze?? If you have ever asked yourself that question, this episode is for you!! Because confidence is not one size fits all!! You can be completely confident in one area of your life and completely paralysed in another!! And for the high capacity Christian woman… that gap often goes deeper than inexperience!! It goes back to something that happened!! Something that left a wound!! And that wound, if it was never healed, has been quietly shaping the way you see yourself… the way you show up… and the way you respond to God's call on your life!! In this episode we are going deep into the anatomy of confidence, where it breaks down… why it breaks down… and how God rebuilds it!!   In This Episode We Cover: - Why high capacity women struggle with confidence even after everything they have achieved - The difference between confidence struggles rooted in inexperience versus unhealed wounds - How a painful event becomes a belief… and how that belief becomes the inner critic that keeps you hidden - What the inner critic actually sounds like — and why she has been believing it without question - The mindset shift that begins to break the cycle — Romans 12:2 - The three things that build Godly confidence — Identity… Preparation… and Obedience - Why confidence is a muscle and how it grows through obedience - What this hard season actually did to your confidence — and why it is not what you think - The difference between the fragile confidence you had before and the unshakeable confidence God is building in you now   This Episode Is For You If: - You know God has called you but fear and self doubt keep holding you back - You feel confident in some areas but freeze when it comes to your calling - You have been carrying a wound that you have never fully addressed - You hear a voice that tells you that you are not ready… not enough… or that nobody will take you seriously - You have tried before and the fear of failing again is louder than the calling - You want to build your Kingdom business but visibility terrifies you   Quotable Moments: “Confidence is not across the board. You can be completely confident in one area of your life and completely paralysed in another." “It is not the event itself that follows her for years. It is the meaning she attaches to the event." “This hard season did not destroy your confidence. It exposed where the foundation was cracked." “Confidence is a muscle. It only grows when you use it." “Not by waiting until you feel ready but by moving while you are still working through it."   Connect With Monique: 📲 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecalledceopodcast?igsh=MTl2NzBwNmtpMWZzNg%3D%3D&utm_source=qr 📝 Substack: https://substack.com/@thecalledceo?r=88u7sn&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=stories&shareImageVariant=image Ready to Work Through This Together?
