When Business Is Slow and Doubt Gets Loud


Hey sis,

Can I ask you something?

What do you do when you know God gave you the vision… but the results aren’t matching the obedience?

When you’re building, showing up, pitching, praying and still hearing no.

When the bills don’t pause just because you’re in a faith season.

When you start wondering if maybe you misunderstood Him.

I’ve been sitting in that tension lately. Building something that feels bigger than me. Taking steps that stretch me. Doing the work. And still waiting for the breakthrough to meet me on the other side of my obedience.

And in the middle of it, I felt the Lord gently ask me, “Who do you say I am?”

Not who people on Instagram say He is.
Not who culture says He is.
Not even who I used to say He was in easier seasons.

But right now, in this stretch, in this pressure, in this uncertainty… who do I say He is?

Because the way we answer that question quietly shapes how we move publicly.

If in your heart you believe He has forgotten you, you’ll build from anxiety.
If you believe He is disappointed in you, you’ll build from striving.
If you believe He is still faithful, even here, you’ll build from trust.

And that posture changes everything.

Even if you never press play on the episode, I want you to sit with that question today. Before you pivot. Before you panic. Before you start over. Who do you say God is in your business right now?

This week on Call Her Profitable Podcast, I’m sharing what this season has looked like for me behind the scenes and how this one question is anchoring me while I wait.

If you’re in a season that feels slow, stretching, or uncertain, I recorded this with you in mind.

You can listen to the episode below.

I’m really glad we’re walking this journey together.

Tune in below.

Hey Reader, When was the last time you read up on the P31 woman? Now, hear me out. I know in Christian culture she can come off as a cliché, overspoken about or studied, or, on the other end of the spectrum, she seems too far off to duplicate or match up to, so we stay away altogether. (Listen, I found myself on both ends, so you’re not alone). However, the other day I felt myself a bit burnt out and confused. I’ve been striving these past weeks in both life and business; I felt the need to...

Hey Reader, There’s something about July that brings a sense of newness, pace, and expectation. Like the prayers you’ve prayed at the beginning of the year have been sizzling in God’s ear, prepping to meet you in the summer and dramatically change your life right before the colder months roll in (is it just me?). This sense of newness captured me as I begged my husband to allow my daughter and me to become plant moms and get this beautiful hanging porch flower plant (idk if that's what...

Reader, We're officially in June. It's 10:30 pm as I write this. And I can't help but crave an unhurried, unrushed, simpler lifestyle. I'm still fresh off a 16-hour drive from New York to Milwaukee after an extended stay in New York for 2 months. I crammed a week's worth of work into 5 hours, and just finished reading Open the Barn Door for the 18th time (a little exaggeration here) to my baby girl. I am burnt out. As I reflect on what's on my plate, what needs to be taken off, safeguarded,...
