40| Is Your Work Aligned with Your Purpose?

Whether you're a corporate leader, a stay-at-home mom, a small business owner, or somewhere in between—this episode is for you. In today’s conversation, Melissa walks through the ups and downs of her own career journey—from managing a $28 million store with 200 employees to becoming a stay-at-home mom, launching a successful direct sales business, and stepping into full-time ministry. She reminds us that our worth doesn’t come from a paycheck, title, or promotion, but from God—and that when we align our work with His purpose, everything shifts. You’ll hear powerful scriptures, surprising stats, and get practical journal prompts to help you anchor your work life in faith. Whether you’re feeling stuck, burnt out, or fired up and ready to go, this episode will encourage you to seek faithfulness over hustle and follow God’s lead in every season. 📖 Scriptures Mentioned: Colossians 3:23-24 Proverbs 16:3 & 16:9 Ecclesiastes 3:1 Romans 8:28 📊 Stats Shared: Only 33% of Americans feel engaged in their work (Gallup). Christians who feel called to their work report higher spiritual well-being (Barna). ✍️ Journal Prompts: What does success mean to me right now? What gifts has God given me that I’m not currently using? Am I clinging to a job or business out of fear or false identity? What would I pursue if I wasn’t afraid? 💡 Action Steps: Pray about your current season and ask God to show you where He’s working. Make a list of your strengths and how you're using them. Consider a mentor or coach to walk with you through transition. 🎁 Want support?
