Podcast Episode #319: What God is Building Behind the Scenes 31.05.2026 28мин

Sometimes all we have to do is take the first step. Only after you take that first step are you in position to see the next one. I pray you are encouraged by this podcast episode, “What God Is Building Behind the Scenes,” as I share what God has been building behind the scenes in my own life with the upcoming Unlocking Greatness Retreat taking place June 13, 2026, in Chicago. If you’ve ever wondered how God brings a vision together one step at a time, I believe this podcast episode will...

Podcast Episode #318: It’s Time to Give Birth to Greatness 10.05.2026 20мин

Tonight’s episode is very personal… it’s about giving birth. Giving birth to greatness. I chose to record and post this special message on this Mother’s Day evening to share from one of the most difficult seasons of my life after losing my 23 year old son. Even in the moment of my deepest grief, God reminded me that His purpose for my life still remained, and I was created to birth the greatness He placed within me. In this episode, I read from Chapter 23 of my book “necessary.” and I shared ...

Podcast Episode #317: Why You Keep Playing Small. How to Break the Pattern and See Your Value 03.05.2026 20мин

There are moments in life where something has to change. You can’t keep playing small, underestimating your value, and repeating the same patterns when opposition appears. You reach a point where you realize you cannot continue responding the same way, thinking the same way, or staying in the same patterns and expect a different outcome. In this podcast episode, I walk through the reality of repeated cycles and why many people remain stuck in them. I also break down what to do when resistance...

Podcast Episode #316: Chosen by God. Stop Seeking Validation. Walk in Your Identity 26.04.2026 31мин

It is too dangerous to seek validation from people when God has already chosen you to uniquely rule over your assignment the way He has instructed for you to do so. When God chooses you, your identity is not up for debate. You don’t need approval to dream. You don’t need permission from others to walk in the authority God gave you. You don’t need confirmation from people to agree with what God said is possible in your life. If God said it, then it’s settled. If God chose you, then it ...

1 Minute Motivation #101: Thank Him One More Time 12.04.2026

Can you thank God one more time? Sometimes it becomes so easy to forget all that God has done, and all that He has protected us from… even when His answer was no. I encourage you to lift your hands and thank God for everything He has done in your life… even for the things you are unaware of… even for the doors He closed… and for the doors He has gone before you and opened.

Podcast Episode #315: The Hidden Patterns Weakening Leaders 05.04.2026 34мин

These are some hidden patterns I’ve noticed, especially among those who are called to lead. After dozens of recent conversations, it became clear that many are pouring into others while neglecting critical areas in their own lives. And over time, that neglect has a cost. SPIRITUAL DISCIPLINE Staying rooted in the Word of God, in His presence, and in the authority you’ve been given. Without consistency, we don’t just drift, we begin to forget what we carry and how to stand. MINDSET AND ENVIRON...

Podcast Episode #314: The Secret Place with God. Where Your Authority is Restored 29.03.2026 19мин

Dwell in the secret place. There is a place that God reveals to those who are willing to enter. A place that is not defined by circumstances, or what is happening around you, but by His presence. In this place, you are not weak… you are strengthened. You are not vulnerable… you are covered. You are not defined by what you are facing… you are anchored in who He is. This is the place where you begin to see differently, speak differently, and walk with a level of authority that cannot be taken f...

Podcast Episode #313: You’ve Outgrown Where You Are 22.03.2026 17мин

You’ve Outgrown Where You Are There comes a point where staying where you are is no longer an option. Not because you haven’t been trying. Not because you haven’t been carrying weight. But because something in you has grown… and where you are, can no longer hold it. You may feel the pressure. You may feel the resistance. You may even feel the cost of what it will take to move forward. But that pressure is not there to break you. It is there to reveal that you cannot remain the same. In this e...

Podcast Episode #312: Why So Many Gifted People Doubt Themselves and Believe Lies About Who They Are 15.03.2026 37мин

Sometimes the hardest battle in life is not external. It is the quiet lie we begin to believe about ourselves. In this episode I share what I have been learning through grief counseling, conversations with people from around the world, and the many clarity calls I have been hosting recently. I have spoken with leaders, entrepreneurs, and dreamers from many different places, and one thing keeps showing up again and again. Many incredibly gifted people are carrying exhaustion, doubt, or a q...

Podcast Episode #311: You Are a Champion! 14.02.2026 28мин

You may not realize this, but you are a champion in the Spirit. You are a mighty warrior. Let’s discuss what truly makes a champion, and how champions rise in the very moment they have fallen. It is not the absence of battle or temporary defeat that makes a champion. It is the decision to STAND again. My prayer is that this Unlocking Greatness podcast episode shifts your perception so that you can see the invitation from God to return to your original design. If you are ready to renew the way...

Podcast Episode #310: A Call to Return Home 29.12.2025 26мин

This is a call to return HOME. This is a call to get back to the original intention God had in mind when He created us. We must walk in love, authenticity, truthfulness, humility, and in the power and wisdom God gives us. In this episode, I share about a situation I did not expect to happen after a speaking engagement, but I am glad it did. It was necessary. It was my breakthrough moment. Sometimes our greatest weaknesses can become our greatest strengths if we are willing to re...

Podcast Episode #309: You Are a Diamond 09.12.2025 28мин

When you first see a diamond fresh out of the ground, it doesn’t sparkle. It doesn’t even look valuable. It looks like dirt… dull, rough, irregular. But it’s a diamond all the same. You may feel like that right now… buried, overlooked, or unsure of your value. Especially if you’re a business owner or walking through a challenging season. I’ve been in that space too...questioning and being refined. But God reminded me of something powerful: you are a diamond, even if you’re still in the rough...

Podcast Episode #308: The Courage to Surrender 23.11.2025 22мин

The Courage to Surrender: How to LAUGH at the Days to Come! God has been pressing into my spirit… the quiet strength that comes from surrender. Not giving up, not shrinking back, but that deep, holy confidence of knowing exactly who you belong to and surrendering every circumstance to Him. Life, family, business… we are all walking through different seasons. Some are heavy. Some feel confusing. Some stretch us more than we ever imagined. But God reminded me of the Proverbs 31 woman, re...

1 Minute Motivation #100: Is It Bearing Fruit? 16.11.2025 1мин

Before you respond to any situation in your life, any phone call, any text message, any disruptive thought, negative people, self limiting beliefs, unexpected circumstances or challenges, etc… ask yourself one question: Is It Bearing Fruit? In other words, will my involvement, time, reaction, response, etc., serve the purpose God has for my life, and will it keep me in alignment with my vision and goals? I encourage you to read: Galatians 5:22-23 to learn more about the fruit of the Spi...

Podcast Episode #307: The Battle Is Spiritual… Don’t Give Up! 23.10.2025 24мин

There is a spiritual battle happening all around us... fear, distraction, doubt, and exhaustion trying to steal our peace. But God reminds us in Galatians 6:9, “Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” This is a powerful message about standing firm in faith, putting on the full armor of God, and recognizing the lies of the enemy. The battle has already been won... but we must stay grounded in truth, rooted in God's Word, and su...

Podcast Episode #306: Get Your Confidence Back. Abide in God. 08.10.2025 11мин

No matter how busy life feels, I want you to pause… and simply abide. In this episode, I share what I learned during a recent retreat... how to truly sit in the presence of God. We read through John 15 and replaced the word remain with the word abide… and everything changed. To abide means to dwell, to carry the presence of God through every moment... not just in prayer, but in the quiet, busy, and everyday moments in life as well. When we learn to abide, confidence returns. Confidence does...

Podcast Episode #305: Victory Has Always Been Yours 24.09.2025 14мин

For so long, I thought the enemy was after me… my peace, my family, my dreams. But now I realize the truth: I was never the real target. The enemy was after the light inside of me. In this episode, I share a deeply personal letter to the enemy, coming from the pain of losing my son and the countless nights I spent on my knees, pleading for God’s rescue. What the enemy meant for evil, God is turning into testimony. Every tear, every dark place... I am determined to use them all t...

I pray you are greatly encouraged by this podcast episode to realize your value has just gone UP! Your value has just gone UP because of what you have been through.

Your value has gone UP because you know that your value is in Christ Jesus [Yeshua], our Lord and Savior. Your value has gone UP because of your unique experiences. Your value has just gon...
