In this heartfelt episode, I open up about my journey of faith, healing, and transformation. I talk about the struggles I've faced—from trauma and isolation to the deep-rooted insecurities and doubts that weighed me down for years.

I share the moments that brought me back to God: the prayers that helped me heal, the power of community support, and the transformational experience of recommitting my life through baptism. Through it all, I've come to see how love and faith can light the path, even in our darkest moments. I’m sharing these moments with you to show how God’s presence and love can truly transform lives.

Here’s what you can expect to take away:

• Embrace your journey—healing takes time, faith, and patience.
• Seek community and connection; they’re essential in finding faith.
• Remember, life’s most powerful breakthroughs can come in unexpected places.
• Recognize and appreciate the people who support you.
• Trust that God is with you every step of the way.

In this episode, Josh Jurkovich and I dig into AI’s role in business and entrepreneurship. We cover it all—from the good, the bad, to the unexpected about using AI in ways that keep authenticity and human connection front and center.

We get into the risks of relying too much on AI, the importance of maintaining real relationships, and how AI can support us without replacing what makes us unique. You’ll hear how to use AI as a valuable assistant, not a crutch, especially when it comes to creativity, communication, and keeping things personal in business.

Here’s what you’ll take away:

• Leverage AI for efficiency but don’t lose your critical thinking.
• Prioritize authenticity in your messaging—it’s what connects.
• Balance AI support with genuine human relationships in business.
• Use AI as a research assistant, not a replacement for creativity.
• Differentiate yourself from AI-driven communication to stand out.

I’m thrilled about today’s episode because we’re digging into a topic I know a lot of entrepreneurs wrestle with—falling out of love with your business. Or as I've heard it put recently, what if you’re just not *into it* anymore? What if it feels like a chore rather than a passion?

I’ve been there myself, and I’ve helped many entrepreneurs work through this exact struggle. So today, I’ll be breaking down how to recognize the signs of burnout, what it looks like when misalignment creeps in, and how to course-correct without burning it all down. Whether you're feeling a little out of sync or like you’re dragging through every task, this episode's for you.

If you're ready to fall back in love with your business, don’t miss this one! Grab a coffee, tune in, and let’s get things back in alignment.

• Understand the signs of misalignment and burnout in business and why they’re different but connected.
• Get the five essential questions to check if your business still resonates with who you are today.
• Discover the two strategies—pivoting or pausing—to help get your business back on track.
