22. To The Hustler...

22. To The Hustler...

On today's Abandoning Average episode, I want to cover the mentality of hustling in the business world and what place it has in working toward God's Kingdom. As faith-based business owners who want to glorify God, it can be hard to know where goal-setting and manifesting lie in working in a holy way. I'm here to tell you I have been there, and we can work toward becoming God-honoring business owners together with a healthy view of work and managing priorities.

18. You Do Not Have To Blast Jesus In Your Business Messaging

18. You Do Not Have To Blast Jesus In Your Business Messaging

Many will say that if you are a Christian business owner, you need to talk about Jesus. Here on the Abandoning Average podcast, I believe that you do not need to have you messaging encompass Christian words all the time. However, you should look different!

13. Discerning Discomfort and Conviction

13. Discerning Discomfort and Conviction

When growing a business, it can be difficult to see where you just need to move beyond your discomfort of the new or where you really do need to stand your ground on a conviction. Let's start ensuring we are doing business honorably and not just because we are pushing through being uncomfortable in growth.

8. Abandon The Average Way of Approaching Business

If you are a faith-based business owner, maybe you get confused on who to follow, where to get your business tips, how to learn, but to also keep your priorities and values in line. 

First of all, I can tell you follow Jesus. Above and beyond everything. Beyond that though, let's chat in this episode about getting those priorities in line and centering your focus on God, rather than shifting your focus to improve your business. You can be a Christ follower and a good business owner!
