Does hitting “publish” make your stomach drop? Maybe you stare at that blank screen, convinced you have nothing valuable to say. If that sounds familiar, take a deep breath. You are not alone, and more importantly, you are not stuck here. We remember when every piece of content felt like it had to be our final masterpiece. We would pour all our wisdom into one post and hold our breath waiting for the response. It was exhausting, and honestly, it just wasn’t sustainable. But here’s the beautiful truth. Creating content doesn’t have to feel that way. It can actually feel peaceful and purposeful, and yes, even fun. Let us walk…

We built our businesses for freedom—but it’s easy to forget we’re the ones who get to choose what that looks like. In this episode, we’re talking about building breaks and sabbaths into real life—like how Becky planned her postpartum time off and how Laurie gave her team December off last year. Together, we’re unpacking how rest can be strategic, time can be led with wisdom, and seasons can actually serve the life we’re building.

If you have ever sat at your desk with a notebook full of ideas but no clear step forward, you know how heavy overthinking can feel. Many of us as Christian women get caught in the swirl of “shoulds.” We think we need to copy someone else’s business model, follow every expert’s advice, or get everything perfect before we begin. But overthinking does more than delay action. It steals your energy, creates unnecessary guilt, and holds back the very work God has called you to do. What you really need is a way to move forward with clarity, courage, and small steps that actually fit your life. That is why…

Running a business doesn’t have to mean constant hustle, overwhelm, or insecurity.

We’ll talk about how to work with focus, build healthy rhythms, and create a business that fits your real life.

We know how the hustle of business can drain your joy, which is why we want to talk about the life-giving power of faith rhythms. Running a business can feel like an endless cycle. There is always another message to answer, another deadline to hit, or another idea pulling for your attention. When the weight of all that hustle builds up, it’s easy to lose sight of why you started in the first place. But here’s the truth: your business doesn’t have to run you into the ground. God never designed us to live in constant striving. Instead, He designed us for rhythms. These are patterns of work, rest, and trust that keep…

We want to talk about something we both lean on constantly: the power of community for Christian women in business. If you’ve ever felt the weight of making all the decisions alone, or wondered if you’re the only one facing a certain struggle, this is for you. We’ve been there, and we don’t want you to stay there. Building a business by yourself is a heavy way to build. It can drain the joy right out of the work you once felt so called to do. But what if it didn’t have to be that way? The Truth About Going It Alone We know the story. You think you have to…

I get it. You care about your work, so you want it to be perfect. You tweak. You polish. You wait for that “flawless” feeling before you hit publish or launch. But can I tell you a secret? That waiting is stealing your momentum. It’s keeping your God-given work on your desk instead of in the hands of the person who needs it. The truth is, growth doesn’t come from perfect. It comes from progress. It comes when you’re brave enough to share what you have now. It looks like choosing your book cover before the manuscript is fully edited. It’s picking the music for your show so it has a…

If you have ever felt completely stuck in your business, knowing you need to move forward but paralyzed by where to start, we want you to take a deep breath right where you are. That overwhelming feeling that you need to figure everything out at once? We’ve been there too. We’ll share what we have learned about getting unstuck, and it all comes down to one simple truth that changed everything for us. I talk about one small change all the time here on So Very Blessed because it has become a life mantra for me. This was not just a business strategy I read about somewhere. It was something…

If you’ve ever found yourself staring at a business expert’s proven system and wondering why it feels so wrong for you, let me tell you something important -> You are not broken. You are not doing it wrong. The problem is not you. The problem is that you are trying to wear someone else’s business like it is a one-size-fits-all outfit, and that approach never works. We should know. We’ve tried to be all kinds of people over the years! We tried to be just like Amy Porterfield. We put on her business model like it was a new dress, and it just did not fit. Then we tried that…
