Anointed Scribe: Kingdom Success for Christian Writers

If your books aren't selling the way you hoped, it's easy to assume the problem is your writing, your marketing, your platform, or even you. But what if low book sales are only the symptom?In this episode, we're looking at five deeper reasons your author business may feel like it's standing still—from unclear positioning and scattered marketing to reader confusion, shaky business foundations, and the pressure Christian authors often carry behind the scenes.This isn't about blaming yourself or chasing another random strategy. It's about learning how to pause, identify what may really need attention, and take your next faithful step with clarity.🔗 Grab your free Why Aren't My Books Selling? checklist.Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

Most Christian authors are praying for the wrong breakthrough — and it's keeping them stuck.In this episode of the Anointed Scribe podcast — the writing podcast for Christian authors who want to build their author business God's way — we go deep into what biblical breakthrough actually looks like versus what the online Christian space has sold us. Because breakthrough isn't hype, it isn't a prosperity formula, and it isn't God handing you everything you want exactly when you want it.Whether you're a Christian fiction writer, an indie author navigating self-publishing, or a Kingdom writer trying to make sense of book marketing and faith — this one is for you. Because sometimes breakthrough is clarity. Sometimes it's surrender. And sometimes it's God breaking through in you before He breaks something open around you.We also talk about why you might be misdiagnosing the real problem in your author business — and why that means every strategy you try lands on the wrong foundation.Plus — there's a brand new tool mentioned in this episode that will help you identify exactly what's been holding your author business back, so you can stop guessing and take your next clear, faithful step.🔗 The Christian Author Breakthrough Stack™👉 Listen now to uncover how to build your author business, God's way!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

Grab the free Discover Your Christian Author Brand guide in the show notes — it's the practical companion to today's episode and it's going to help you put everything you hear into action.You heard from God. You know you're called to write. But how do you turn a divine prompting into a clear author identity, a defined message, and a brand that actually reaches the people He had in mind? That's exactly what today's episode tackles.Most Christian authors don't struggle with the calling. They struggle with translating it into a clear brand. Bridging the gap between "God told me to write" and knowing what to write, who to write it for, and how to talk about it in a way that connects — that gap is where momentum dies and confusion sets in.In this episode we unpack why defining your author brand is not a worldly vanity project but an act of faithful stewardship. Using Jeremiah 33:3 and Habakkuk 2:2, we look at what it actually means to write the vision and make it plain — and what happens when you don't.🎁 Discover Your Christian Author BrandSend me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

You are surrounded by more Christian author advice, book marketing courses, writing coaches, and self-publishing advice than ever before. And yet somehow, God's voice has never felt harder to hear.In this episode, I open up Jeremiah 33:3 and pull out one word that reframes everything — a word that reveals why the direction you've been searching for cannot be found in anyone's blog post, Facebook group post, or proven method. It can only come from one source.This is a conversation about discernment. About testing the voices you've been building your author business and writing life on. About the difference between consuming faith-adjacent content and actually hearing from God. And about why the most important thing you can do for your writing life right now might be to stop. Be still. And call to Him first."Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know." — Jeremiah 33:3 (NIV)🎁 Free guide mentioned in this episode: Discover Your Christian Author Brand™Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

What does it actually mean to call yourself a Kingdom author? Not as a label. Not as a niche. As a real, daily, costly accountability to the God whose name you're putting on your work.Because there's a growing gap between the Christian author identity most of us claim — and the sacred standard that identity actually requires. And in this episode we're closing that gap with a conversation that's long overdue.From borrowed God-language on social media to AI-generated faith content, to the quiet drift from calling into performance — this episode names what's really happening in Christian publishing right now and asks the question every Kingdom author needs to sit with:Is God in your books — or just on them?Hit play.

There's a word most Christian authors say they believe in. They underline it in their Bibles. They nod at it in sermons. And then they go home and hold on to their author lives with both hands.Surrender.In this Good Friday episode, I'm taking you to the garden of Gethsemane — to the night before everything fell apart — and to the five words Jesus prayed that changed everything. Not just for the world, but for what it means to be a Kingdom writer trying to be faithful with something they can't fully control.Because surrender at a writing desk doesn't look like giving up. It doesn't look like passivity. And it's not a one-time event. Today we talk about what it actually looks like — practically, honestly, daily — to say "not my will, but yours" over your author life."Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done." — Luke 22:42👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

Most of us have read Galatians 5 dozens of times and applied it to our personal lives. In this episode, we bring it straight into your author business.If you've ever wondered whether God is in your work or whether the flesh has been running it in His name, this is the diagnostic you've been missing.Because the works of the flesh don't only show up in the obvious places. They show up even at your writing desk. Paul named them all. And every single one has an author version.But Galatians 5 also reveals the evidence that tells you if your author business is connected to the right source. And in this episode, we look at exactly what each one looks like in practice, from how you write, to how you market your books, to how you respond to your Amazon sales numbers.Grab your free Kingdom Author Breakthrough Audit™ and answer ten questions that tell you exactly which root is driving your author life right now — so you can stop guessing and stop fixing the wrong things, and start getting real results.Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

Sometimes you have to delete a few chapters and rewrite them to write a bestseller. And sometimes God has to do the same in your author life.In today's episode I'm taking you deep into one of the most misunderstood seasons a Kingdom writer can find herself in — the one where nothing is working, nothing is growing, and no strategy seems to hold. Using Ecclesiastes 3:3 as our anchor, and the story of Nehemiah — a man who rebuilt an entire city from rubble in fifty-two days — I want to completely reframe the season you might be sitting in right now.Because the tearing down is not the opposite of the building up. It is the prerequisite for it."A time to tear down, and a time to build up." — Ecclesiastes 3:3🔥 The Revive to Thrive Way™ early bird price closes midnight 31st March: anointedscribe.com/revivetothrive👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

Put your hand up if you dread your book marketing! If you dread having to send out a newsletter because you have no idea what to say. Or if it's just easier to do what other authors are doing because frankly you have no idea what you should be doing. This episode is for you.Because in today's episode I'm naming the three root causes that make book marketing feel impossible for most Christian authors — and none of them have anything to do with your cover, your blurb, or your ads. Because here's what I've learned the hard way: you can't build a thriving author business on an unstable foundation. And until the foundation is sorted, no novel marketing strategy in the world is going to hold.If you've ever wondered why marketing your books feels like the last thing you want to sit down and do — and why that has nothing to do with how much you love writing, or God — click that play button, friend.I can't wait to share what God taught me about why I hated book marketing!Mentioned in this episode:"Where there is no vision, the people perish." — Proverbs 29:18🔥 The Revive to Thrive Way™ early bird price closes midnight 31st March — save $100 and get over $200 in bonuses: https://anointedscribe.com/revivetothrive👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

Are you in a waiting season — or are you actually stuck? These two things can look identical from the outside, but they feel completely different on the inside — and they require completely different responses.In today's episode, I'm sharing three honest questions that will help you tell the difference. Because for a lot of Christian authors, the language of "waiting on God" has quietly become permission to stay exactly where they are — circling the same mountain, month after month, wondering why nothing is changing.This isn't a lack of faith episode. It's a wake-up-with-love episode.

This is my backstory — and it's something I've never shared before. Not like this.In today's episode I'm bearing it all — the full, raw story of just how depressed and desperate I was two and a half years ago. Desperate enough to take out a credit card, go into debt, and fly halfway across the world — twice — hoping someone in a conference room would finally tell me what I was missing.I had answered God's call. Pivoted my entire career in obedience. Won the award. And I was still failing. Or at least, that's what it felt like.This is the story of what five years of building my author business the wrong way actually looked and felt like — and the eleven words God said to me on a beach in Florida that changed everything.If you've felt alone in this author journey and wondered what you're missing — this one's for you. 🔥 The Revive to Thrive Way™ is now open — head to https://anointedscribe.com/revivetothrive to find out more.👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

Have you ever held a belief about your author life that felt completely spiritual… but quietly kept you from moving forward?In today's episode, I unpack three beliefs I've seen quietly circulating among Kingdom writers — beliefs that come from sincere, God-honouring hearts, but that might be getting in the way of the author life God actually intended for you.Drawing from personal experience and scripture, this episode explores the difference between passive waiting and active trust, why the craft treadmill isn't always the answer, and why the most visible writers in your space probably have far less figured out than you think.No judgment here. Just one author friend sitting across the table from another — with honesty and compassion, saying — hey, I recognize that. I lived there.

What if the word “self-publish” has been quietly working against you as a Christian author this whole time?In this episode of The Anointed Scribe, Urcelia unpacks the hidden problem with the word “self” in self-publishing — and why Christian authors were never called to write, publish, or build their author business alone. If you’ve been feeling exhausted, isolated, or stuck in your indie author journey, this one’s for you.Through a powerful passage in Exodus 35–36 — where God commissions ordinary people to build the tabernacle and supernaturally equips them with skill, intelligence, and creativity they didn’t have before — Urcelia reveals the pattern God still uses with Christian writers and authors today: He stirs the heart, He fills with His Spirit, and He over-provides for the work.In this episode, you’ll discover:• Why the word “self-publish” contradicts everything the Bible teaches Christian authors about identity, calling, and dependence on God• The surprising connection between self-ish, self-centred, self-confidence, self-care — and the way we approach self-publishing• How God equipped Bezalel and Oholiab with supernatural skill to do work they were never trained for — and what that means for your writing• The heart condition that blocks God’s provision in your author business• How to shift from striving as a self-published author to thriving as a God-commissioned, Spirit-equipped, Kingdom-building authorWhether you’re a Christian fiction author, nonfiction writer, or just starting your indie publishing journey, this episode will remind you that the God who called you to write will equip you and provide everything you need to carry out that good work.Scriptures referenced: Galatians 2:20, John 15:4, Philippians 1:6, 1 Timothy 6:18, Exodus 35:25–36:7, Ephesians 2:10, Matthew 6:33, 2 Corinthians 9:8📌 Resources mentioned:• The Revive to Thrive Way™ — Launching soon!👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

Ever tried a marketing strategy because it was working for someone else… only to feel drained, behind, and totally out of your depth a few weeks later?Yep. Been there.In today’s episode, I’m sharing 5 clear signs a marketing strategy might not be right for you — even if it’s producing results for another Christian writer. Because the online author world is loud, and it’s so easy to start chasing what’s “working”… instead of discerning what’s actually yours in this season.We’ll talk about anxiety, comparison, dread, feeling inauthentic, and the BIG one: when marketing starts pulling you away from writing.I’ll also share a simple filter I call The Peace Test so you can stop second-guessing every decision and start moving forward with clarity (and peace).If you’re a Christian writer trying to grow your author platform, market your books, build your email list, and do it in a way that doesn’t steal your peace — you’re in the right place.👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Mentioned in this episode:❤️‍🔥 Clarity Quiz: https://bit.ly/AnointedScribe-Quiz❤️‍🔥 The Revive to Thrive Way™: AnointedScribe.com/ReviveToThriveSend me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

It’s the start of a brand-new year.New goals. New planners. New promises we’re making to ourselves — again.“This year will be different.” “I’ll be more disciplined.” “I’ll finally stay consistent.”And yet, if we’re honest, many Christian authors have said these same things before… only to find themselves back in the same place by March.In this episode of Anointed Scribe, we talk about why good intentions rarely lead to lasting change — especially in your author business.Because the issue is rarely effort, discipline, or motivation.It’s often the foundation you’re building on.In this conversation, we explore:Why January doesn’t automatically reset exhaustion or burnoutHow repeated patterns form — even when you pray and plan sincerelyThe difference between movement and obedienceWhy pressure-driven goals always lead back to fatigueWhy prayer alone doesn’t always break cycles without awarenessAnd why real transformation starts with clarity, not another planIf your writing, marketing, or growth feels heavier than it should — even though you’ve done the work and stayed faithful — this episode will help you understand why.✨ Need clarity before setting another goal?If your author business isn’t working the way it should — despite your effort and faithfulness — I created a short clarity quiz to help you discern what’s actually creating friction right now.This isn’t about fixing you or trying harder. It’s about understanding whether the issue is strategy — or order.👉 Take the clarity quiz here:https://bit.ly/AnointedScribe-QuizLater this month, I’ll be opening a space for Christian authors who sense a deeper shift is needed — not another reset, but a rebuilding from the inside out.I’ll share more when the time is right.For now, start with clarity.👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

This is not a teaching episode or a call to action. It’s an invitation to breathe, to rest without guilt, and to trust that God is present even when nothing feels clear.In this episode, we explore:Why the in-between is not wasted time — but inhabited timeHow God often works in transitions throughout ScriptureWhy fogginess, fatigue, and reflection are not signs of failureHow to release end-of-year guilt and receive grace insteadIf you’re feeling unmotivated, emotionally tender, or unsure what to do next, this episode is a reminder that you don’t need to decide anything right now.If you sense there may be something deeper underneath your exhaustion or restlessness, you’re invited to take the clarity quiz: Why Your Author Business Isn’t Working the Way It ShouldTake the quiz.Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

As the year comes to a close, many Christian authors feel an unspoken pressure — to finish, to plan, to prove that this year mattered.But what if that pressure isn’t from God at all?In this episode of Anointed Scribe, we’re talking about the kind of end-of-year urgency that masquerades as responsibility but quietly fuels striving, anxiety, and burnout. If your mind feels noisy, your to-do list feels heavy, or rest feels like something you have to earn, this conversation is for you.You’ll hear:Why pressure is not God’s voice — even when things matter deeplyHow striving clouds discernment and steals peaceWhat Scripture actually says about rest, trust, and timingGentle, practical ways to quiet your mind when everything feels urgentThis isn’t an episode about productivity.It’s about presence.

It's that time of year—everyone's setting goals, making resolutions, and planning their 2026 author business. But what if one word could give you more clarity than a hundred strategies?In this episode, I'm sharing why I personally choose a Word of the Year, how it's kept me focused and grounded for 8 years, and the quiz I use every single year to help me discern what that word should be.This isn't a "you must do this" episode. It's simply me sharing my experience with a practice that's transformed how I approach my author business—and inviting you to try it if it resonates.I'm also sharing how my last three words turned out to be prophetic—revealed years before God would call me to create this podcast and The Revive to Thrive Way™. He was already naming what He was about to birth through me, and I couldn't have known that at the start of each of these years.If you're heading into 2026 feeling scattered, overwhelmed, or unclear about what to focus on—this practice might help you too.Plus, I'm sharing my collection of river stones with 8 years of words written on them—and how looking back, I can clearly see how each word was the foundation of that year, often in ways I never expected.Scripture referenced: Ecclesiastes 3:1 (a time for everything), Proverbs 4:25-27 (fix your gaze), Proverbs 16:9 and 19:21 (hold plans loosely)Perfect for: Christian authors feeling scattered, anyone overwhelmed by conflicting advice, writers looking for focus in 2026, those wanting practical ways to align with God's planMentioned:The Revive to Thrive Way™ waitlistDaySpring Word of the Year Quiz.👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

It's almost the end of 2025, and instead of gratitude, you're drowning in guilt.The books you didn't finish. The goals you didn't hit. The platform that didn't grow. Everyone else is posting their year-end wins—12 books published, six-figure incomes, USA Today bestseller lists—and you're wondering if you wasted an entire year.But what if you're measuring the wrong things?What if God sees your 2025 completely differently than you do?In this vulnerable episode, I'm sharing my own disappointing 2025—an unexpected international move that disrupted every plan, left books unwritten, and income goals unmet. And yet, God revealed something that completely changed how I see this year.If you're heading into December feeling like you failed at your calling, this episode will shift your perspective.We're talking about the metrics God actually cares about (spoiler: they're not book counts or bestseller lists), why "unproductive" seasons might be God's most important ones, and the one thing most Christian authors are forgetting as they measure their year.This isn't toxic positivity. This is about learning to see what God sees—and discovering He might be celebrating things you haven't even noticed.Because friend, what if the guilt you're carrying isn't from God at all?Scripture referenced: Psalm 103:1-2, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, Ecclesiastes 3:1, Philippians 4:6-7, Isaiah 43:19Perfect for: Christian authors feeling like failures, anyone comparing their year to others' highlight reels, writers carrying guilt about "unproductive" seasons, those ready to finish 2025 strong.Turn up the volume—this one will help you see your year through God's eyes instead of the world's.👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

Have you invested in course after course, desperately hoping to find the breakthrough formula, but ended up more confused than ever? Spent money on Facebook ads training, launch strategies, and marketing blueprints that promised "zero to six figures" success—only to find yourself still stuck?In this vulnerable episode, I'm sharing the costly mistakes I made following voices motivated by worldly success instead of Kingdom advancement. For years, I chased after expert strategies, secret formulas, and proven systems, not realizing the real problem: I was building my author business on the wrong foundation.If you're a Christian author who feels paralyzed by conflicting expert advice, exhausted from implementing strategies that don't work, or wondering why God's calling isn't translating into results—this episode is for you.We're talking about:How to discern which voices to follow when everyone's making promisesThe red flags I missed in course marketing (and how to spot them)Why information overload keeps Christian authors stuckThe difference between building FOR God versus building WITH GodWhat Matthew 7's parable about building on rock vs sand means for your author businessHow to know if you're following worldly metrics or Kingdom principlesWhy you might need the right foundation before any strategy will workThis isn't about bashing courses or saying all expert advice is bad. It's about learning to hear God's voice above all the noise, understanding what foundation comes FIRST, and building a Spirit-led author platform that actually aligns with your calling.If you're tired of chasing "successful author" formulas that leave you feeling like a failure, ready to stop comparing your behind-the-scenes to everyone else's highlight reel, and hungry for GOD to break in—turn up the volume, because this episode will set you up for heavenly transformation.Mentioned in this episode: Proverbs 14:12, Psalm 127:1, James 1:5, Matthew 7:24-27🔥 Get priority access to Revive to Thrive™👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

For years, I congratulated other Christian authors on their success. But then I'd close my laptop and feel this weird heaviness in my chest. Why them and not me?I didn't recognize it for what it was: a competitive heart quietly poisoning my calling.In this vulnerable episode, I'm sharing a season of my journey I don't talk about often—when God exposed the scarcity mindset I'd imported from the publishing industry straight into my faith. When I realized I was competing for a spot in His Kingdom that was already mine. And when He finally showed me what abundance actually looks like.If you've ever felt that same heaviness when another author succeeds, if you've caught yourself comparing instead of celebrating—this one's for you.

Have you ever wondered why, despite your hard work and prayers, breakthrough in your writing life still feels out of reach?At one time, I for sure did!

Why do we feel confident and "anointed" when book sales soar, but question our calling when they crash? If you've ever let your royalty report determine your confidence as a Kingdom writer, I have too—and you're not broken. You're human.But here's the truth: Your anointing validated you before you ever sold a single book. The confidence you're searching for in those sales numbers? You already carry it in the calling God placed on your life.In this episode, we're diving deep into why we trade our anointing for the false confidence of earnings—and how to break free. We'll unpack:Why we confuse financial abundance with God's approval (and what Scripture really says about it)The difference between operating in anointing versus striving for validationHow to step into abundance without making money your idolFour powerful shifts to anchor your confidence in your calling, not your cash flowWhat it looks like to keep writing boldly when bills are due and sales are downPractical boundaries for when anointing and abundance do alignThis isn't about choosing between spiritual calling and financial success—it's about learning to steward both without letting either become your master. It's about discovering that your anointing IS your abundance, and that's the most liberating truth you'll ever embrace as a Kingdom writer.So if you're tired of riding the emotional rollercoaster of sales-based confidence, grab your journal, settle in, and let's talk about how to root your identity where it belongs—in your irrevocable, unshakeable, dashboard-independent anointing.👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...

But months later, you're broke, discouraged, and wondering how you could have been so wrong about hearing His voice.The crushing truth?

Through my own vulnerable story and biblical encouragement, I share how God gently corrected my course—and how you, too, can realign your writing with His heart.✨ In this episode, you’ll discover:The subtle pitfall every Christian author must guard againstWhy even “successful” seasons can feel empty when purpose driftsPractical questions to help you discern God’s purpose in your writingHow to exchange striving for Spirit-led creativity and peaceIf your writing has started to feel heavy, this conversation will help you return to the joy of creating with God and rediscover the simplicity of why He called you to write in the first place.👉 Listen now to uncover the secret to becoming an anointed scribe!Send me a message!Support the show_____________________________________🙋‍♀️ Wondering why your books aren’t selling?Start here: grab my free Why Aren’t My Books Selling? checklist and uncover what might be keeping readers from buying — so you can stop wasting time on random strategies and finally know where to focus first.       👉 Get the FREE checklist✝️ Ready to go deeper?If you’re tired of second-guessing every business decision, chasing strategies that don’t feel right, and trying to build your author business from pressure, fear, or comparison, The Revive to Thrive Way™ was created for you.It’s my self-paced, Scripture-rooted program that helps Christian authors surrender the pressure, rebuild their God-given identity, and get clear direction for what to build next.       👉 Join The Revive to Thrive Way™_____________________________________❇️  Resource Library💌  Friday Manna Newsletter™️  for more tools & tips!🤩 Rate & Review this Podcast...
