There are so many things impacting our businesses and the results we're getting.
So often we ask the question "What is wrong?" and we look for outward solutions for inward problems.
One of the biggest things I have noticed in my Kingdom clients and something I've had to personally work through myself is my identity. I didn't know anything about an "orphan spirit" and didn't think I'd qualify because I have a mom and dad who love me.
Maybe you've been wrestling with trying to figure out "what's wrong with you" and why you aren't getting further in your business. That's why I'm sharing 10 signs that could indicate an orphan spirit is impacting you and your business in today's episode.
And if you want to learn practical steps to overcome these challenges and embrace your true identity as a daughter of God, then this episode is for you!
This one is straight from my heart to yours.
I share what an orphan spirit is and how to identify it. I go deep into embracing your true identity as a daughter of God and tackle the impact of the orphan spirit on our lives and businesses. I share ten signs that might indicate an orphan spirit and offer practical steps to overcome it. I guide you in recognizing lies and fears, journaling your thoughts, and reprogramming your beliefs with God’s truth.

Do you ever have those weeks when you just don’t feel creative and it’s really hard to come up with content? Do you ever have those “I want to burn it all to the ground” moments when you’re just feeling like you need a re-do? Or maybe you have those moments where curling up in a blanket and being away from the world sounds so much better then going LIVE on social media to promote your business.
Have you ever wondered how your menstrual cycle might play a role in your business?
Me too! And then someone introduced me to “cycle syncing”.
If you’re curious about the role your hormones play as a female CEO, this episode is for you! If you’re ready to find out how to align with your monthly cycle to explode your business then you’re going to love this week’s episode.
I brought on Leisha Drews, a holistic hormone coach, registered nurse, and functional nutritionist, to pull back the curtain on the crazy world of women's hormones and cycles, and how they impact our businesses and lives. Leisha shared her journey from nursing to hormone coaching, driven by her passion for empowering women. We explored the menstrual cycle's four phases, the role of estrogen and progesterone, and how to harness our monthly cycle for peak productivity. Leisha's insights were eye-opening for me , and I hope they help you embrace your beautiful body God created to work with you and not against you.

Covered in this episode:

- Challenging the notion of accepting negative experiences as normal and advocating for a holistic approach to women's health (those horrible monthly things we’ve accepted as “normal” just might not be normal!)

Let me tell you more about Leisha:
She is a wife, mama of 3 busy little ones, foodie, and a BIG fan of keeping things simple when it comes to health, nutrition and hormone balance.

She’s passionate about supporting women to improve energy, restore metabolism, balance hormones, fix period and PMS symptoms, and ultimately feel GOOD in their bodies again so life can be joyful & you can be present.
