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!Let's stay connected:IG: @risingwithchristianIG: @risingwithchristianpodcastwebsite: www.risingwithchristianpodcast.com

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.Devotional: The 100 Most Important Bible Verses Every Leader Must Know by Jay Payleitner Let's stay connected:IG: @risingwithchristianFacebook: RISING with Christian www.risingwithchristianpodcast.com        Our Guest:IG: @iammattaaronwww.luxwealthplanning.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!Our Guest: Keelay Carterwww.keelaycarter.com @keelay_carterOur Host: Christian B.

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.

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:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oU3jZT3b9UcWebsite for resources:www.justice.gov Like, Subscribe, and Leave a 5 Star Rating!!!!email: info@risewithchristian.comIG: @risingwithchristian /  @risingwithchristianpodcastwebsite: www.risewithchristian.com
