In this episode, we chat with Lisa Winbolt, an army chaplain wife, homeschool mama of 4, and  Enneagram coach who has dedicated her life to helping people of faith live their healthiest lives by understanding who God created them to be.  We see that by understanding ourselves and internal motivations we can better relate to our world and those around us. Which can, in turn, improve our relationships at home, work, and church. Once, we understand that God created everyone in a unique way we no longer need to take offense. But instead, have a deepened respect and understanding of why people act the way they do. By the end of the episode you will understand:What the Enneagram isWhy the Enneagram?An overview of the 9 personality typesThree Rules of Enneagram What are some next steps after learning your type?I hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as I enjoyed chatting with Lisa!Learn more about how to use your God-given gifts by booking a time with Lisa: https://www.lisa-winbolt.com/about

(Big) Al shares how vision, focus, intensity, are necessary tools to get us out of the maze of mediocrity. An intense passion and a clear focus will allow us to find our mission, manage our resources and build a team that will impact our world. We need to operate in our life knowing that we are already overcomers and be grateful for the difficult situations that come into our lives, since these are what will give us the momentum we need to take off in our personal and professional lives.(Big) Al and I talked about the gifts and strengths that God gives to all of us, and the importance of leaning into them, following the passions and desires that God puts in our hearts, ignoring the judgments that may arise from other people or ourselves about what a good christian should do.If you are in search of the gift that God gave you, or if you have already discovered it, this conversation will give you the necessary tools to use it to serve and grow, personally, professionally and spiritually.

In this episode, we sit down with (BiG) Al Darnell, Executive Business Advisor, Believer in God, and Entrepreneur whose run-in with a childhood bully led him to a 19-year journey in entrepreneurship; buying and selling multiple businesses.  We chat about how his  "Pinky & the Brain" inspired mission to T8K over the world has evolved into a life calling to help people stuck in the "maze of mediocrity"  start a business, build it, and blossom it into something that allows them to regain control of over every aspect of their life. Hence, taking over their own personal universe.  

In part 2 of our fellowship with Vanessa Yu, we chat about being free from people-pleasing to live to the Lord alone, learning how to lean into your God-given strengths (even when it doesn't align with your Christian concepts), and why it's important to be specific and name our feelings to receive REAL healing instead of VAGUE healing. The truth is the Lord desires that we would magnify Him in our souls, but we can't do this when we are hurt, damaged and full of weird religious concepts. But when we have a hearing to get to the bottom of why we are the way we are! We can receive freedom and healing from so many things. I'm someone who is very introspective. But instead of feeling guilty about it I can take it to the Lord and give it all to Him and I hope after this episode you can too. 

In this 2-part interview series we sit down to fellowship with Vanessa Yu; sister in Christ, mother of 3, transitioning from chief household officer to Life Coach after the birth of surprise baby #3! We take a look at the different stages of life from singlehood to motherhood and how every stage is an opportunity to gain the Lord; despite our failures!If you're searching for ways to make the most of your time in these "evil days", turn off the TV, plug in your headphones while you wash the dishes, and tune into this intimate, wisdom-rich episode with our sister Vanessa.XO

Do you struggle with imposter syndrome or low self-confidence?Do you often find yourself turning toward self-criticism as opposed to the loving truths found in the Word of God?You and I both, sister. But, we don't have too.In part 2 of our interview with Sharon Gill, Faith-Based Leadership & Business Coach, we talk about how claiming the word of God is the key to silencing the lies that steal our confidence. In turn, we can be freed to love and accept ourselves the way God intended. 

In this 2-part interview series, I chat with Sharon Gill, a Faith-Based Leadership Coach who works with busy female executives to create a purposeful life and business. From creating space for 'quiet time' amidst a demanding schedule to developing a  healthier relationship with money and success as a Christian business owner, Sharon will shares why the Bible is the foundation of her life and coaching practice and how it can help you in your daily walk!

Have you befriended the enemy in your mind that says you're not good enough? Have you struggled with a poor self-image and low confidence for the majority of your life? Well, you're not alone sister! For over a decade I've believed the lie that I'm not ______ enough. Fill in the blank. From I'm not pretty enough to not talented enough, women all over the world have grown up with a distorted view of who they are. My hope is that by sharing my story you will realize you are not alone and that there are some very practical tools to begin accepting yourself just as God created you, His Masterpiece. 

The words, "you're not good enough" are like a bad song you can't seem to get out of your head. Sharon Jaynes, a Christian speaker, and author refers to the statement,  "I'm not good enough" as, an insidious lie that keeps God's best at bay for many of His children. Inspired by the book, Enough, in this episode, we will unveil the identity of who the real enemy is so that you can begin to immediately reclaim your thought life. No war in history was ever won without the opponent understanding who their enemy was and this applies to the one of most important battles of all time, your thought life. 

How do you surrender to God's will when so many distractions fill your heart? From being a good wife to having "on point" hair and eyebrows, to building your empire, the world tells us we should have it all and more!But just like Martha in the gospels - who was anxious about many things - we are taken away from the very thing that is most precious to us; sitting at the feet of Lord Jesus Christ. Join Cassandra Robinson - entrepreneur, content creator, Jesus lover, and book worm - as she helps you navigate life, marriage, career, entrepreneurship, and self-love through a mix of biblically sound advice, her personal journey, and a few humorous antics along the way. Grinding in Grace is an interview-style, faith-focused, weekly podcast for every season of a woman's journey.
