Faith Fueled Business Minded Women

What if the life you’ve been praying for… requires a version of you that feels just a little too bold?In this episode of Faith Fueled Business Minded Women, we’re leaning all the way into what it means to Live Life B.I.G.—not in the loud, flashy, “look at me” way the world pushes… but in a deeply rooted, faith-first, God-honoring kind of bold.Because let’s be honest for a second…How many times have you felt the nudge? The idea. The calling. The “there’s more for you” whisper from God……and then immediately followed it up with: “Who am I to do that?” “What if I fail?” “What will people think?”Yeah. Same.This conversation gently (and maybe just a little lovingly) calls that out.We’re talking about the tension between playing it safe and walking in obedience, between shrinking back and stepping forward—even when your voice shakes, your plan isn’t perfect, and your confidence feels… questionable at best.Because here’s the truth: Living small doesn’t protect you—it limits the impact God designed you to have.And if you’re a working mom, a single mom building something from the ground up, or a woman trying to balance faith, family, and future… this one is going to hit home.Inside this episode, we explore:What it really means to live “B.I.G.” through a faith lensHow fear disguises itself as logic (and keeps you stuck)Why bold obedience matters more than perfect executionThe quiet, powerful ways your everyday faith creates lasting legacyThis isn’t about pressure—it’s about permission. Permission to show up fully, trust God deeply, and stop dimming what He placed inside of you.Because you’re not here by accident. And you’re definitely not called to live small.So if something in your spirit has been stirring lately… If you’ve been craving more alignment, more courage, more purpose…Press play.Send this to a friend who’s been playing small.Save this for the moment doubt tries to creep back in.This might be the nudge you’ve both been waiting for!If this conversation encourages or stretches you, we’d love for you to subscribe, download the episode, and share it with another business-minded woman who could use a reminder that she’s not walking this journey alone.

Actually - the moments you thought made you a “bad mom”… are actually the ones your kids would treasure most!In this honest, laugh-out-loud, and unexpectedly heart-tugging episode of Faith Fueled Business Minded Women, we’re pulling back the curtain on the “not-so-proud” motherhood moments—the hiding in the bathroom for five minutes of peace, the popcorn-for-dinner nights, the stretched-too-thin seasons where you wondered if you were getting anything right.If you’ve ever felt like you were failing at motherhood, falling short in your career, or barely holding it together while trying to honor God in all of it… this conversation will meet you right where you are.Because here’s the tension we don’t talk about enough: You can love Jesus deeply… and still feel like you’re dropping the ball daily.Through real-life stories of single motherhood, working multiple jobs, raising kids without a nearby support system, and navigating the pressure to “do it all,” this episode gently reframes what success actually looks like in a faith-filled home.You’ll hear how the moments that once felt like failure—simple meals, survival-mode decisions, imperfect routines—became the very memories that shaped strong, faith-rooted, capable adults.And somewhere in the middle of the laughter and the stories, you’ll be reminded of this truth: God’s grace was covering you then… and it’s covering you now.This episode is for the working Christian parent, the business-minded mom, and every single woman trying to build a meaningful life without losing her faith (or her mind) in the process.If you’ve been carrying quiet guilt, questioning your impact, or wondering if you’re doing enough… you don’t want to miss this one.Because you are never just “getting by.” You are building something that lasts.Dented—but never defeated.Xoxo - Jen and KennetteIf this conversation encourages or stretches you, we’d love for you to subscribe, download the episode, and share it with another business-minded woman who could use a reminder that she’s not walking this journey alone.

Ever feel like you’re carrying expectations no one actually said out loud… but somehow, you’re still responsible for meeting them? Yeah—this one might hit a little close to home. In this episode of Faith Fueled Business Minded Women, we’re diving into the quiet tension of unspoken expectations in leadership—the kind that slowly builds frustration, fuels burnout, and leaves everyone wondering what went wrong. Through real-life stories, a few “whew, that’s too real” moments, and truth rooted in faith, we unpack how unclear communication, misplaced assumptions, and misaligned priorities can quietly derail even the strongest teams (and homes). But here’s the shift: what if leadership isn’t about doing more, but about being clearer, healthier, and anchored in Christ? This conversation will challenge you to check your own expectations, lead with intention, and create space for honesty, trust, and growth without compromising your faith, your family, or your peace. If you’ve ever felt unseen, overworked, or just plain tired of guessing what people need from you… take a breath, friend.

In this honest and faith-fueled conversation, Kennette and Jen unpack the real question behind leadership—whose responsibility is it, really? What starts as a conversation about fixing teams quickly turns into a deeper look at self-awareness, communication, and the quiet ways leaders can unintentionally create confusion, frustration, and disconnect. With a mix of real-life business experience, Biblical truth, and a little humor, this episode challenges “fix them” mindsets and replaces it with clarity, ownership, and God-centered leadership. Because the truth is… most people don’t show up wanting to fail—but without vision, communication, and trust, even the best people will struggle to succeed.Here are just a few nuggets:Leadership doesn’t start with fixing others—it starts with checking yourself firstIf people are confused, it’s usually not a capability issue“Clarity is kindness” isn’t soft—it’s necessaryGodly leadership is vertical first, not just horizontalAnd so much more!Before you go, if this conversation encouraged you or gave you something to think about, we’d love for you to subscribe and stay connected with us.

What if the very thing slowing your business down… is actually the thing God is using to build it right? In this episode we shift our conversation from vision to execution in our organizations—and this one might lovingly call you out. If you’ve been pushing for growth at work, more clients, or “the next big thing” but still feel stretched, scattered, or stuck in the messy middle… this conversation will hit home. We’re unpacking the tension between dreaming big with God and stewarding what’s already in your hands—because sometimes the breakthrough isn’t in expansion, it’s in alignment. From leadership gaps and burnout to building systems that actually support your calling, we discuss what it means to lead with intention, disciple well, and stop rushing what God is still forming. There’s a quiet truth here most people skip over: clarity doesn’t come from doing more—it comes from focusing smaller. And if you’ve ever wondered, “Did I miss it? Am I behind?”… friend, this is your reminder—you’re not. But you might need to slow down long enough to see what God is already setting in place.We would love for you to subscribe, download, and share the podcast with another business-minded woman who could use a reminder that she’s not walking this journey alone.

What do you do when the dream in your heart feels bigger than your energy, your time, or your current life season? In this episode of Faith Fueled Business Minded Women – Dented, Not Defeated, Kennette and Jen dive into a tension many faith-driven women quietly carry: God gave you the vision… but He didn’t hand you the full blueprint. If you’re a business-minded mom, single mom, or purpose-driven woman who loves Jesus but sometimes feels overwhelmed trying to build a life, family, and business that honors Him—this conversation might hit you right in the heart. Together they unpack the powerful idea of “Dream Big, Focus Small” and why the Kingdom strategy for building something meaningful often looks less like hustle and more like daily obedience, tiny steps, and faithful consistency. From practical business insights to biblical wisdom found in Proverbs, Habakkuk, and everyday life, this episode explores why the breakthrough you’re praying for may not come through a giant leap—but through one small, faithful action today. If you’ve ever wondered “Am I doing enough?” or “Why isn’t this vision moving forward?”—this conversation will challenge, encourage, and remind you that God doesn’t ask for perfection… just obedience in the next step. Because sometimes the difference between feeling stuck and seeing momentum is simply one faithful 1% decision at a time.If this conversation encourages or stretches you, we’d love for you to subscribe, download the episode, and share it with another business-minded woman who could use a reminder that she’s not walking this journey alone.

What if the stress you’re carrying right now isn’t really about your schedule… but about control? In this episode of Faith Fueled Business Minded Women: Dented – Not Defeated, we dive into a raw and honest conversation every ambitious Christian working woman eventually faces—when life, leadership, and business feel like a battlefield. If you’re a business-minded woman, a single parent holding everything together, or someone who loves Jesus but still finds herself gripping the steering wheel a little too tightly… this one might hit close to home. Through a powerful reflection on Exodus 17, we unpack a surprising truth: stress often reveals whether we’re relying on control or trusting God. From practical faith habits for high-pressure days to the humbling reminder that victory requires support, not solo strength, this conversation gently challenges the “I’ve got this” mindset many women entrepreneurs and working parents carry. Because here’s the tension we explore—what if the breakthrough you’re praying for comes after obedience, not before clarity? And what if the support God designed for you is already around you… but you’ve been too strong to accept it? If your shoulders feel like they’re permanently parked near your ears and you’re wondering how faith actually works in the middle of real life, leadership, and business pressure, take a breath.
