  • S1E8:Proverbs & Profits: Bold Faith in The Marketplace With Jenevy Sims
    Dec 5 2025

    In today’s episode, we’re diving into a powerful conversation about what it truly looks like to bring your faith boldly into the marketplace. I had the honor of sitting down with Jenevy Sims, a dynamic business leader, strategic consultant, and the visionary behind The Evolve Firm, Proverbs & Profits, and several faith-centered leadership initiatives.

    If you are a woman who feels called to build, lead, and influence… yet sometimes wonders how to honor God while pursuing your professional goals, this conversation is going to breathe fresh courage into you.

    Jenevy shares her journey of integrating faith with business even in spaces that don’t always welcome faith-based conversations. She opens up about the resistance she has faced, the obedience that shaped her path, and the biblical wisdom that continues to ground her as she leads, speaks, and builds community.

    Together, we explore how to show up authentically for Christ in our work without striving or shrinking back and how to lead with a Kingdom mindset in every room God calls us into.

  • S1E7: The Parts of Your Story You Avoid Are the Ones Your Audience Needs Most
    Nov 21 2025

    There’s a version of your story you’ve tip-toed around… the chapter that still feels too messy, too ordinary, or too vulnerable to share. But what if that part — the one you’re tempted to edit out, is actually the very thing that builds trust, connection, and credibility with the people you’re called to serve?

    In today’s episode, we walk through why the stories you avoid often carry the greatest impact, and how God can use even the tender parts of your journey as a lifeline for someone else.

    In This Episode, You’ll Discover:

    • Why your polished moments aren’t what create real authority
    • The three core reasons women avoid sharing the stories that matter most
    • How shame, fear of judgment, and “it’s not big enough” thinking keep you silent
    • Why your everyday, ordinary moments may be exactly what someone else needs
    • A simple three-question filter to discern which story is ready to be shared
    • The difference between speaking from a healed place vs. an open wound
    • How your story becomes ministry, mentorship, and a roadmap for another woman’s breakthrough

    This is a conversation for every woman called to lead, influence, inspire, or step into a message-driven assignment — especially if you’ve ever wondered, “Does my story really matter?”

  • S1E5: Assignment Over Algorithms: Stewarding Your Message Without the Pressure to Perform Online
