Summary
🎙️ Today on Exploring the Marketplace with Shawn Bolz & Bob Hasson…
What happens when a homeless single mom chooses radical obedience and faith over fear—and watches God build something extraordinary?
In this powerful and vulnerable episode, Shawn and Bob sit down with Karen Coffey, a two-time INC 500 award winner, who shares her astonishing journey from losing everything—her home, car, inheritance, and financial security—to building a multi-million dollar coaching and consulting company, all by partnering with God and being led by the Holy Spirit.
Karen opens up about:
💔 Losing her 200-year-old family farm, her mother, and becoming homeless 🙏 Praying daily for one divine instruction—and receiving 100 steps in 100 days 💡 Building a coaching business that’s helped hundreds of entrepreneurs each year 🏡 Miraculously buying back her family farm years later 🔥 Experiencing supernatural provision—from unexpected checks to real estate miracles 📈 Practicing extreme obedience and generosity—leading to years of explosive business growth
Now, Karen has launched SpiritLedBusiness.org, a mentorship platform for faith-based entrepreneurs—and she’s giving Exploring the Marketplace listeners free lifetime access (normally a paid membership)!
If you're in a season of loss, rebuilding, or looking for God's direction in your business, Karen’s story will ignite your faith and remind you what’s possible when you trust God with everything.
🎧 Tune in now for a conversation filled with raw honesty, supernatural breakthrough, and practical wisdom for Spirit-led success.
