Grief: Walking Through Your Pain & Breathing Again

Grief is a powerful emotion that every human being has had to come face to face with. The question is - how do we handle it? In this podcast, I speak with Jess Lohmeyer about the unspeakable grief that she has had to face in her life, loosing a child. Many of us say..."I can't imagine." Well, no we can't, unless we have been through this painful situation ourselves. Join me as Jess shares the rawest parts of herself and how she walked through and walks through the pain of her daughter's loss in her life. What I admire most about Jess, is that despite the despair that has come, she has fought for her family, heart and mind. She is a testament of what overcoming looks like. She is an inspriation to me and I hope that she is to you, too! Be sure to check out Jess's blog about her healing journey: http://heatherfaithlohmeyer.blogspot.com/2018/02/life-doesnt-have-to-be-perfect-to-be.html?m=1 [http://heatherfaithlohmeyer.blogspot.com/2018/02/life-doesnt-have-to-be-perfect-to-be.html?m=1] Thank you to the amazing Christian artist, Miles Minnick, for allowing me to use his song, "W.Y.T" for this podcast.

Canceled Out: Living Out Faith In A Cancel Culture with Renee Suiter

A self-taught online reseller and Instagram influencer, Renee Suiter, got a rude awakening when she decided to cross her initial boundaries with relation to her business online. After speaking up boldly about her beliefs, she ended up on the receiving end of the cancel culture that permeates our society today. There was grief, sadness and mourning, but in the end Renee says that the experience only made her and her faith stronger.  Join me as Renee and I discuss the importance of integrating faith and business and how we can do it in a way that does not alienate others, but allows us to continue to stand for what we believe in.  Be sure to give Renee a follow on Instagram @faithdrivenidentity.

Sober - Life On The Other Side

Years ago, Jamie and I would sit in her living room chatting about God, life, motherhood and alcohol. We pressed in, seeking Godly wisdom from one another, in an effort to find answers. All these years later and hundreds of miles apart, I noticed that Jamie is on a journey of sobriety and sharing with others about it publicly. What courage and strength that takes! I was so thrilled to hear more about her journey to sobriety and I wanted to share it with all of you. In this podcast, Jamie opens up her heart about her path and how she is living on the other side. I found it compelling, convicting, and insightful.  I do want to note that I don’t believe that complete sobriety is the “answer” for everyone…but I do believe that God does have a standard for alcohol in our lives that is unique to all of us. What is yours? Perhaps the beautiful vulnerability in this podcast and on Jamie’s Instagram will further lead you to answers you are looking for. You can find Jamie on Instagram @sobermindedmom. Big shout out to Miles Minnick for allowing me to use his song, W.Y.T for the intro song to the Fierce Women Podcast – be sure to check Miles out on Instagram @miles.minnick.

This Is What Gets Me Fired Up w/ Katelyn Swiatek

Want to know what gets me up in the morning? This podcast will tell you. Recently I feel like I have come home to a warm meal and a fire after a quest across a desert wasteland. Business can feel like that sometimes...you push and push and push...only to feel like something is missing.  Well, for me, it was God. Stuck in my self-reliance and pressures of business, I took my eyes off God. Not in defiance, but in survival.  I love how my current journey relates to Chapter 4 in The Magic Of Thinking Big by David J. Schwartz, PH.D. We can think big, but we can think even bigger with God.
