Today I’m talking with Tresa Todd of the Women’s Real Estate Investor’s Network and her journey into entrepreneurship and how her faith influenced that process. After a 25 year career in the medical field, she stepped out in faith to learn real estate investing and later started teaching other women how to do the same.  In this conversation, we talk about overcoming fear when God asks you to do big things. We also talk about Christian women building wealth, why that is ok, and overcoming money mindset issues that get in the way of that.  There is so much gold packed into this interview, and I hope it blesses you.    More about Tresa Tresa Todd is the founder of the Women’s Real Estate Investors Network (WREIN). A 2022 Inc. Best in Business award winner, the WREIN is the largest learning and networking community for women real estate investors in the nation.

Are you struggling to figure out what your business should be? Do you have ideas, but you just aren’t sure because you don’t have peace about any of them? Issues with figuring out your calling and being confident in that come from how you see yourself. Do you find yourself trying to fix every “flaw” about yourself? Are you looking at what other people are doing and trying to fit in with all the other business ideas out there?   If your view of yourself is that you’re broken and need to be fixed, then it’s going to be really hard to get clear where God is calling you specifically. In this episode, we’re going to be talking about how to embrace how God made you. To start loving yourself and how God made you so that you can lean into that instead of trying to fix it all the time.  As Christians and entrepreneurs, we have to balance loving ourselves and how God made us while also knowing that we live in a fallen world, are human and aren’t perfect. God is constantly willing and able to sanctify us. We have the ability to change negative thoughts that are driving how we see ourselves and perceive the world, but not everything about us needs to be fixed either.  This is where we count on the wisdom God gives us in order to hear where He wants to heal us vs where He means for us to simply be.  I hope you're encouraged by this episode and that you continue shifting your mindset toward Jesus so you can do all that He is calling you to do.  __________________________ **Last call to Join the Called and Confident Coaching Program (Only 3 spots left!)** As a Christian entrepreneur, you know that building a business takes more than just hard work and dedication.

On today’s episode, we’re going to be talking about embracing the success that God has for you.  As Christian women today, we shy away from being exalted. We think that humility means that we need to stay out of the limelight and the attention doesn’t need to be on us. We feel uncomfortable being promoted, elevated or praised for our accomplishments.   But is this really humility?  What if in the attempt to be humble and not boast, you’re actually preventing God from exalting you?  When you’re called to business, then that means you will have authority in a space. If you’re preventing God from exalting you, then you could be preventing Him from giving you the provision, business and success you’ve been praying for.  I hope you're encouraged by this episode and that you continue shifting your mindset toward Jesus so you can do all that He is calling you to do.  __________________________ 📣** Announcement** 📣 Upcoming Beta Group Coaching program As a Christian entrepreneur, you know that building a business takes more than just hard work and dedication.

In this 2 part interview, I’m joined by Leslee Kiser (author of The Course of This World) to talk about all the ways the enemy tries to keep you from fully walking in what God has for you.  From distractions to our identity, the enemy comes at us from all angles as he tries to keep us focused on ourselves and turned away from God.  Leslee shares her own journey of wrapping her identity up in her performance, ability, looks and possessions and realizing none of that really defined her.  She talks about the power of knowing the Truth in Scripture and how the truth really can set you free from so much.  Some topics you’ll hear about: What it really looks like to take your thoughts captiveHow to recognize the ploys of the enemyKeeping our thoughts focused on God Embracing our identity in ChristComparison steals our joyConfidence in Christ  and what that looks likeMuch more! As entrepreneurs, imposter syndrome and doubt are constantly coming up, so I know this conversation will resonate with so many of you.  I hope you're encouraged by this episode and that you continue shifting your mindset toward Jesus so you can do all that He is calling you to do.  More about Leslee I grew up in Goodlettsville, TN, in the same house for 21 years. I couldn't wait to get out, then I got out and couldn't wait to get back. I was raised in church but didn't grow spiritually like one would hope. Because I was just out of hell and into heaven, I made a lot of bad decisions based on what I wanted, how they made me feel, or what I got from them. This led me down the road to selfish ambition and insecurity. People who knew me at the time probably had no idea that the weight of comparison was crippling me. The way I coped at the time was to be more of all the things....have nicer clothes, better shoes, be louder, dance better, win more. I was very driven by what others thought. I remember praying that something had to change. I knew the road I was going down would lead to terrible things, possibly even death, but I didn't know how to get off it. After that prayer, little by little, God began to show me that His opinion mattered more than everybody else's. Once He started showing me who He was, and in turn showing me who I am in Him, my life turned upside down. The insecurity started melting away. I started to realize that all the things didn't sustain me, He did.   Watch Youtube video of this interview here: https://youtu.be/mZd52PA1wA8 Connect with Leslee   Email: lesleekiser@gmail.com Learn more about her book on Amazon (affiliate link): The Course of This World   ________________________________________________________________ Feeling stuck?

Do you find yourself questioning if you’re doing the right business? One thing that comes up a lot with clients is that they are confused about their business. What should their niche be? Really, as Christian entrepreneurs, this means who should their business be serving? When someone is asking questions like this, it can mean that they’re getting stuck in the weeds of all the business strategy stuff and, honestly, looking to the business world to decide who they should be serving with their business.  This happens to so many people (myself included) but it’s not intentional. When we try to use business logic to decide our business direction instead of seeking God’s direction, it causes us to feel lost and confused.  So I want to talk to you today about why it’s important to seek God’s insight on who you are to serve, what that looks like and how to do it.    We’re going to be talking about:  How this is a calling and God has a specific purpose for you and your business. His plan includes you being yourself and leaning into the business He’s given you. What it feels like when your business is focused on the person He called you to serveHow to stay focused on where God is leading or if you’ve found that you’ve drifted away from that, how to get back on track. Doing these 3 things will take away a lot of the uncertainty and confusion about your business and help you have peace and confidence that you’re on the right path.  I hope you're encouraged by this episode and that you continue shifting your mindset toward Jesus so you can do all that He is calling you to do.  Reminder: Q2/Spring sale - happening through Apr 16th!

As we end Q1 and head into a fresh quarter, we want to be excited in anticipation of the amazing things we are going to be doing this next quarter. But for many of you, I know that instead of excitement, you’re feeling stressed and overwhelmed at the thought of doing more things.

Do you ever find yourself asking permission from an online business coach/teacher/mentor? Asking if you’re “allowed” to do something in your business? Or maybe you felt God was leading you in one direction, but you heard an online teacher say the opposite, so you started to doubt what you heard from God.  I think what started as seeking wisdom subtly leads into seeking permission and listening to an online teacher over what God has said.  But I don’t think this is intentional, so I want to talk to you today about why this happens, how to recognize it and how to fix it (or prevent it in the first place).  There are three main lines of thinking that contribute to this happening. What’s wild is that you often won't even recognize you have these thoughts and you’ll just kind of find yourself in that position without even realizing it. Good news is that it really is something you can fix because it starts with thoughts and beliefs and we know those can be changed. So listen as we dive into these 3 thoughts and look at them through a Biblical lens to see how to ultimately trust in God’s plan above all else.  I hope you're encouraged by this episode and that you continue shifting your mindset toward Jesus so you can do all that He is calling you to do.  Coffee chat sign ups: I want to hear from you.
