In this podcast I share 9 tips that you can apply to your life when you are having to walk away from people in your life that you love or once loved. This by far is no easy reality and I have personally been able to do this with the guidance and grace of God.

This is not an ode to "cancel culture" because I strongly believe that God created us to be in community. Yet, this podcast shines light on when to know it's time to depart from someone and how to actively apply this reality in your life in a healthy and healing way.

May you be encouraged, inspired, motivated and strengthened in this season of your life! I'm here for you in prayer my brother and sisters!

TYPE IN COMMENTS BELOW: What or who is God asking you to release yourself from in this season of your life? Please be respectful in your comments :)

We all want to put our best foot forward, but what happens when we end up doing nothing at all due to wanting the perfect timing, perfect opportunity, perfect environment etc. Maybe God is saying just walk in obedience and I will work out the detail as you go!

In this podcast we truly discuss the many ways we have been hindered through perfection, a tactic of the enemy. Instead, we are to pursue Godly excellence in all that we do.

What is Godly excellence? I'm so glad you asked and it truly leads you towards your destiny while perfections pulls you away.

Remember that "done" is better than "perfect" and may your RISE in your purpose today!!!!

In the recent season, there has been soooo many people who have been in need of direction, prayer and guidance for their life. Every time I receive a prayer request for clarity or purpose- I praise God because they acknowledge the power of God vs. the power of the world to promote change!

In this prayer, I ask God to cover all aspects of your life. I ask God be your compass, speak over the enemy and allow you to be in His perfect will.

May you be reminded that there is absolutely nothing that prayer can't solve! May you be encouraged and cover by the Spirit of God as you navigate your ordained path.

In this episode, I share how God desires for the thing we view as "complicated" to be simple in our lives. We can constantly be surrounded by overwhelm, overthinking, strategizing, decisions and problem solving- all things that can go from complicated to simple when we place it in the hands of God.

I truly believe that God wants to give you rest. That God wants to simplify things in your life. That the pieces that seem to be all over the place can truly be out together in a magnificent way when we partner with God.

The scriptures discussed were Matthew 11:28-30 and Number 23:19. Get these scriptures in your heart mind and soul. Have them on repeat when you wake and when you rest to sleep! God is wanting to release you of your burdens and do a new thing in your life!!

May you be encouraged, empowered and inspired to trust God more deeply. Be sure to SUBSCRIBE and SHARE! Continue to RISE in all that you do, ok? Love y'all!

Have you ever worked so hard towards something and you feel like it's best to throw in the towel after years of trying? Well this happened to me this week during my entrepreneurial journey when I just didn't think I was cut out to be a business owner.

This in fact was not true as I encountered a moment of defeat that I refused to let define my entire journey. The enemy knows that you are one step closer to your blessings, purpose, impact and breakthrough- therefore the attacks of imposter syndrome and fear is the heaviest when you are indeed the closest to God's promises. 

We are not throwing in the towel today, okay? We are not giving up. We will instead RISE with all power knowing that God is with us!

Whatever you do........DON'T QUIT!!! You are closer than you think.....

Let’s talk about God’s ordained detours.

As people, we like to plan. We make our itineraries when we travel or keep a log of our schedule on a calendar app. We appreciate the efficiency of moving forward steadily. We would never plan chaos and detours into our lives on purpose. And yet that seems to be God’s modus operandi—His go-to mode for guiding us. Rarely does God ever take someone to the destiny He has for them without taking them on a detour, or two or ten, or even a hundred. 

It is the one-in-a-million Christian who gets to go from point A to B to C and straight on to Z. Most often God takes you from A to F to D to R to B to Q and so on. You’ll never know which letter He is pulling out next, either.

Are you currently facing a detour in your life? Then this episode is for you!

Want to get unstuck or see things happen in your life? This is the episode for you. Today I discuss how  you will be able to walk into things within your life by simply having faith and writing it down. There is power in writing down your vision both physically, scientifically and spiritually. TRUST ME!!! I'm a walking testimony. 

As I sat in the beauty of Cartagena, Columbia  while recording this episode, I shared how traveling was on my list and how this was truly over flowing in my life and I personally believe that it was because I wrote it down.  There is truly power in your words, power in what you write down, power in your faith and power in believing for more in your life.

When was the last time you wrote, revised or revisited your life vision?
Were you playing things too small?
Does that vision fit with where you currently are?

It's time to stop insulting God with our small prayer requests and to go BIG in your asking!

Today, I get very transparent with my husband as we discuss our first 500 days of marriage. Now we are no experts, and I don't know if couples ever become an "expert" due to the constant shifts within and from society. However, we are sharing our learnings and what has worked for us in the hopes of motivating others in their marriage or courtship. To take some nuggets or to simply have a conversation expression what indeed works for you and your spouse or partner.

I never understood why those who were married spoke so negatively of it (if they were indeed married to the person God called them to). They would lead with how hard it was before discussing the many ways it was fruitful. They would tell me of the many horror stories before they shared how fruitful it was...and truthfully RISERS it was disheartening. So I learned my lesson that MY marriage would be what WE decided it to be and through effective communication, learning from bumps and seeking wise counsel...we stand before you confident and healthy knowing that God has has placed the ministry of marriage before us.

We are sooooo intentional from the moment we wake and we pray this episode and even our marriage is a blessing to others.

We mentioned a devotional book that we read during the week together that is so spot on, please find it's name below.

There were truly so many gems that were dropped on wholeness and healing, not living "raggedy lives", accomplishing your bucket list and trusting the timeline of God.

Ladies, I authored a book called, "Single is not a Sin" and would highly encourage you to add this book to your daily reading! Feel free to purchase on my site at www.risewithchristian.com.

Ladies, in a given 24 hours, some people can't even comprehend how you are able to achieve all that you have to do. There are so many roles that we have to uphold as women and though it may bring joy- it can sometimes be overbearing. Truthfully! Sometimes you simply are drained or discouraged sometimes both at the same time.

In this Episode, Keelay Carter, wife, mother, CEO, full time worker and entrepreneur speaks about her journey and how she is able to live into her purpose. She reminds us to embrace our story and flaws and use this to fuel all that we desire to get done. Through her journey of going to therapy, using her obstacles as a stepping stone, and embracing her imperfections- she has inspired thousands of women around the world through her lifestyle brand for women.

When using the term "balancing", please note that it differs because no one day looks alike. However, one thing that is in our control is how we choose to show up in the world and may the many listeners today be inspired to live a limitless mindset. Ladies, take a moment to breathe and acknowledge that we are doing many things, great things, and that there are women all over the world who encourage you as you continue to RISE!

Ladies, it's time to let go and release so that you can be postured to receive. As we come to the end of 2021, it is important to do proper reflection before we walk into the next. What is it that you vow to let go this year?

Some questions to ponder are:
Who do you want to see when you look into the mirror?
Who do you need to let go of?
What mindset do you need to embrace?
How will you set new boundaries?

You see, questions reveal intentions and the absence of reflection in one year will allow you to repeat the same in the new year. It's time to offload so that you can pick up bigger and better!

Truthfully, I launched my podcast because I attended today's guest "Pray for your Business Challenge." Whether you are a mom, a CEO, an employee, or a visionary you need to understand how to tap into your prayer life! In today's episode, we talk about how prayer can be used as a strategy. If you are ready to elevate your life, walk in faith and be introduced to all that God has for you- prayer is often times that missing key.

As a professional in corporate America, Kristen found many ways to excel and spread her joy and light as a believer and prayer warrior. Kristen is a certified life coach, small groups leader, Founder and CEO of her business, and a Certified Business Strategist. She truly is on fire in her faith and also in her entrepreneurship and discuss the many ways of how she merges the two together daily.

For my entrepreneurs- this episode is for you because often times we live by our business plan or financial goals- but you can also clarity, insight and favor when you pray.
For my dreamers, this episode is for you, because a dream may never come into fruition absent of prayer.
For my ladies who may be dissatisfied in an area of your life, pray on it.
Prayer truly can be a strategy to hear, do and become more in your life!

As women in this society, we are constantly having to look over our shoulders. My most recent ride share experience scared me beyond words, leaving me to try to figure out how I put in one destination for the ride and ended up at another. Quite frankly, there were so many red flags that I overlooked, giving the driver the benefit of the doubt but I thank the Holy Spirit for guiding me to leave the car before the ride ended.

Ladies, in this episode I will share the flags that I witnessed, tips of how to maintain safety, and resources that will help others who may be in need. Truthfully, kidnapping and sex trafficking is at an all time high in the US and as women we must stick together to share our experiences, wisdom and resources so that we can RISE in safety together.

This episode is not to belittle the greatness of ride shares but to express the mere reality of exercising safety as women, no matter the location. Please listen intently with an open heart, a prayerful spirit and a fearless posture. This story is true and factual and I pray that it yields more safety for other women throughout the world.

Please share the hand signals for violence:

Have you ever found yourself in a "I have no more energy to give" season? Or how about a "I'm doing my job but I'm lacking passion" kind of season? Are you in a "I'm running on fumes and literally don't know how to get my spark back" kind of season? If you have said yes to any of the following, this episode is for you!

In this episode, I discuss practical tips of how to be reignited in your passion, purpose, and lifestyle. Quite frankly, we give of ourselves so much as women that when it comes to ourselves and we fall short and energy deprived. Now that I've gotten my wind back, I feel that it is my duty to share with you how to do the same. Quite frankly, you are sitting on too much goodness and greatness to not have the energy, focus, or faith to activate it. It's time to be reignited with passion and to on fire for what's next.

How will you show up in the room differently if refueled?
How will your mood and attitude shift if refueled?
How could you tackle procrastination and be more purposeful if refueled?
How would you view yourself in the mirror if refueled?

The time is now and I refused to allow any of my sisters to stay in a place that has expired. That's right sis, its time to RISE! You have places to go and a purpose to live out! It's time to get your spark back.

Sis, have you ever had guilt, shame, and a sense of being less than a woman because you were not able to complete a particular task? Well, I can relate because this is exactly how I felt when I was not able to prepare 3 meals a day.

I want you to show grace to yourself in your daily life because honestly and truthfully you are doing the very best you can! If you are ready to be free, please raise your hand!

Listen intently as I provide 5 options that you can rely on to make cooking easier. To my boss women, those who are tired, or truthfully those who don't know where to start in the kitchen- please listen!

AGAIN, this episode is not just for the kitchen, but to address any standards that we have placed on ourselves as women. Let's be free today, together!!!
