Summary

Do you feel like you are doing all the right things in your business… praying, planning, showing up, working hard… yet nothing seems to be moving forward? Maybe you have started wondering if God forgot about the dream He placed on your heart. Or maybe you are quietly asking yourself why the business strategy you’re pouring so much time into still isn’t producing the success you desire. In today’s episode, I am sharing a truth that completely changed the way I approach business. Because sometimes the reason your business feels overwhelming, exhausting, and frustrating is not that you are failing. It may be because God never asked you to build it that way in the first place. You cannot hustle your way into God’s blessing. This conversation will help you release the pressure to strive harder and instead invite God back into the center of your business decisions. We are talking about surrender, obedience, alignment, and how to discern whether the strategy you are chasing is actually the one God has called you to pursue. If you have been feeling tired, discouraged, confused, or stuck despite working harder than ever, this episode is going to feel like freedom. I pray this episode reminds you that you do not have to force what God has not called you to carry. His plans for you will never require you to abandon your peace, your priorities, or your dependence on Him. Ready to build your business with God instead of just for God? I think this answer is going to set you free. I pray this blesses you! Ready to Make Consistent Income From a Podcast? Join my 5-Day Profitable Podcast Bootcamp!

0:26.3	And I'm here to say that this is not because you're lazy. I know that you, just like me,
0:32.0	one of the hardest working women out there. And you have faith. You've been believing God for this for years. And deep down,
0:39.7	you're starting to ask the question, you're almost too scared to say out loud, God, why isn't this
0:45.9	working? So we're going to dive into this conversation today, friend, and I'm going to answer that
0:50.8	specific question. Why the heck isn't my business being blessed
0:55.6	when I'm working so hard on it? I think this answer is going to set you free. Welcome to God-led
1:01.4	business. I'm Steph Gass. After a decade of striving, I surrendered the world's way for God's way.
1:07.7	And he showed me how to grow a profitable business through podcasting. Now I help
