Seek First CEO is a podcast for high-performing, faith-led women who are done choosing between success and peace.
Hosted by Heather Shriver Burns, Master Coach and speaker, this show explores the intersection of neuroscience, Scripture, and spirit-led strategy — helping women understand their inner world so they can lead, build, and steward their mission from alignment instead of pressure.
These conversations are for the woman who knows she’s anointed to lead, called to abundance, and tired of doing everything “right” while freedom still feels just out of reach.
Because when you seek first the Kingdom, leadership flows differently — and everything else follows.

Mic Drop Moments:
- “Soul care is so important because it keeps you working from a place of overflow instead of working from a place of burnout, stress and frustration. You're pouring from an empty cup, but you just keep pouring because that's what you've done your whole life.”
- “Your default as a high performer is to do, do, do, do, do. I'm here to tell you it's really important for you to be.”

In this episode, we explore the concept of being "soul tired," a state that goes beyond physical exhaustion and impacts our mind, will, and emotions. I share my personal journey and highlight signs to watch for, such as emotional numbness, neglecting spiritual practices, and a lack of joy in your work. We dive into the importance of soul care to reignite your passion and purpose. Let’s move from being soul tired to soul on fire together!

Have you ever asked: Should I share more about my faith as I build my business? Or have you ever considered that your business could be more than just a source of income? Understanding how to align your entrepreneurial journey with spiritual principles can be challenging. This podcast episode aims to uncover how to thoughtfully integrate your faith into your work, whether overtly or covertly, and how your business can become a ministry - a "businesstry" as I like to call it.
Mic drop moment:
“I want you to know that there are different ways to be the hands and feet of Jesus, and it all really comes down to who you are called to serve.”

You’ve already achieved financial success in your business but you still feel stuck - like you’re not living in God’s best for your life. If that sounds like you, you’re going to love this episode with my dear friend and student, Shayla Huber.
Shayla, an author who helps women find their true identity in Christ, shares her journey from being a network marketing professional to becoming an influential author - something she didn’t even think was part of God’s plan. We discuss Shayla's path to self-discovery through soul care, overcoming challenges from her past, and realizing her true calling as a daughter of God. While working with me, Shayla shed her orphan spirit, idol of success, and people-pleasing tendencies, leading her to write a successful book on marriage that has sold over 5,500 copies to date. Shayla's story emphasizes the importance of surrendering to God's plan and finding true contentment in Him, impacting both her personal and professional life.
Mic Drop Moments:
- “I now have my worth and my validation in Jesus, so I get to lean on Him and there's no more questioning. There's no more ‘am I doing the right thing’ or ‘not doing the right thing?’ It's like full satisfaction because of who I am in Christ and being able to do work that I now understand He always had planned for me. It just took me a while to get to it.” - Shayla
- “Sometimes you have to face the very things that are holding you back to walk in God's freedom and fullness for you.” - Shayla
- “When God asks you to do something, you've got to trust Him and you've got to follow Him. I was to that point where following Him regardless of what anybody else was going to say was more important.” - Shayla

Have you ever wondered how your faith influences your business decisions? Do you believe that God plays a role in your professional success? How do you cope when you feel let down by your faith?
Hey Sister Friend!
Today, I want to dive deep into a topic that resonates with many of us—our beliefs about who God is and how it intertwines with our entrepreneurial journey. The episode revolves around a profound question posed by God: "Am I enough?" This question challenged me to confront my beliefs about God and myself. It made me realize that my sense of worth and fulfillment was often tied to my business achievements rather than a genuine relationship with God. This is a common struggle for many of us, especially when we are driven by our goals and ambitions. So get ready for some hard hitting truth and questions to get to the root of your beliefs about who God is.

Religion, filled with its rules and regulations, killed Jesus, and it could be killing your calling too.
Have you ever wondered about the true difference between religion and a genuine relationship with God? Do you seek a deeper, personal connection with God that goes beyond traditional religious mindsets?
Hey Sister Friend! You better strap in for this one because I am getting fiery - this is a hill I am 100% willing to die on! So you know this is going to be good!
In this episode, I dive into the difference between religion and a genuine relationship with God. I real about my journey of how I learned to question inherited beliefs - beliefs I didn’t even know I had. It is so important that you understand your own belief systems and seek a personal connection with God. Religious mindsets can hinder your relationship with God and the freedom that is waiting for you in true relationship with Jesus. Embrace your identity as a beloved child of God, a daughter of the King, and to seek God's guidance in your business and life. Join me in moving beyond religious constraints to cultivate a vibrant, personal relationship with our Creator.
I pray this episode blesses you!
Mic drop moments:
- “Religion is: God will love me if I change. Whereas the gospel is: God's love changes me.”
- “If you're using the words, I need, have, should, and must, that's a real good sign that you are working for something and you are not partnering with God.”
- “God is much more concerned about building you and your relationship with him personally, than he is about building your business.”
