    159: [Best of Year 1] Leadership, Healthy Relationships, & The Enneagram - Beth McCord Jul 06, 2021
    Show notes

    How can you develop healthy relationships with those you lead? And how does knowing your own wiring impact how you do this?

    To celebrate 3 years of the Christian Woman Leadership Podcast, we are sharing a "Best of" series. Today's episode is the best of our first year of the podcast: Episode 17: How the Enneagram Can Help You Nurture Healthy Relationships with Beth McCord.

    In recent years, there has been some controversy related to the Enneagram and questions about whether Christians should utilize it. Therefore, in the intro for this 'best of' episode, I'm sharing some thoughts about this and some resources for you to consider if you want more information.

    Resources:

    Blog post: "Should Christians Use the Enneagram?"

    Podcast series from Your Enneagram Coach:

    • #64: Thinking Theologically About the Enneagram
    • #65: A Response to the History of the Enneagram
    • #66: The Christian Approach to Using the Enneagram

    A final note about this topic:

    I want to encourage you to do your own research, prayer, and ask the Holy Spirit to give you discernment as to whether the Enneagram is a tool that you would want to utilize or not.

    I am not here to tell you one way or another what you should believe or do in regards to this issue. I do not see it spelled out clearly in scripture, and thus I'm not going to tell you that my perspective is the only right one. (And check out episode 112 for guidance on sharing your personal convictions).

    158: Why & How Leaders Can Cultivate a Biblical View of Money with Katie Jones Jun 29, 2021
    Show notes

    Have you ever considered whether your thoughts and feelings about money are lined up with God's word? How can you shift any inaccurate thoughts or unhealthy money habits to ones that reflect the heart of God?

    In this conversation, Holly and I talk with faith-based money coach Katie Jones. We discover how Katie's leadership journey and her passion for a Biblical perspective of money came about, and we dig deep into why this matters for Christians.

    Katie shares about some of the false beliefs about money we often hold as Christians as well as how we can change our views. We also discuss how the way we handle our finances is directly connected to our relationship with God. Katie also shares her thoughts on whether or not there's a point where someone might have "too much" money as well as how we can start to develop Biblical money management.

    No matter your leadership role, you are affected in some way by money. This episode will push you to consider how your views about money are affecting not only your own life but also the church as a whole.

    Have you ever considered how much power your thoughts have over your emotions and your actions? It may be more than you think, but the good news is that we have the ability to change our thoughts and thus change how we experience our lives.

Emily shares her personal experience of going from struggling with OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder), anxiety and depression to living a life of freedom and joy. How did she do this? With God's help and by changing her thought patterns to ones that line up with truth.

    Whether you've experienced the overwhelming feeling of obsessive thoughts or you've just allowed your thoughts to roll through your mind without much examination, you're sure to be both encouraged and challenged in this episode. You'll also learn some practical ways you can begin transforming your thought life and living with more freedom and joy.

    155: Faith, Business, and Parenting Children with ADHD with Abby Turner Jun 08, 2021
    Show notes

    Do you ever feel ashamed or guilty for needing help when it comes to your parenting? And how can you get the support you need in all areas of your life?

    In this episode, I'm bringing you a special conversation that I had with Abby Turner as part of my Faith & Business Series I've been sharing on the Christian Woman Business Podcast.

    I chose to share this episode here as well because I loved how we talked about the need for outside support in parenting, and how this applies to all areas of our life and leadership. We do not have to feel ashamed or embarrassed to reach out for help when we need it.

    In addition, we chat about my upLIFT Mentormind, which is currently open and taking applications for new members. Go to https://upliftmentormind.com/ to learn more and apply.

    Show notes

    What does it mean to have a 'Biblical mindset' and why is this vital for Christian leaders and business owners? And how can we discern between true Biblical mindset approaches vs. those that sound spiritual but may not align with God's word?

    In this conversation, I'm talking with messaging strategist & Biblical mindset coach Veronica Hoddenbagh. You'll hear what this term 'biblical mindset' means and why it's so important for Christian leaders. In addition, Veronica shares about a dark time in her life and how that led her to being passionate about this topic.

    We also dive into whether or not we should use affirmations as Christians, and what a Biblical view of mindset blocks or limiting beliefs looks like. We also discuss practical ways to develop a Biblical mindset and how this helps you deal with challenging situations in your life.

    This conversation will benefit you no matter what context you're leading in, so be sure to listen in and hear what God may have for you.
