- 130: Where I’ve been…(story time feat. crazy miracles)
Well…I thought I would just silently resume uploading episodes as usual after this 6 week hiatus, but this has been one of the most transformative seasons of my life. I think it would encourage you to know how God answered major prayers and turned my scarcity and fear into mind-blowing triumph.
So I’m here to share the honest details about what happened.
Hope you enjoy!
Kelsey

1 hr 42 min - 129: Juliarose Childs - Advocating for yourself as a neuro-divergent professional + using negotiation to create your own career
No matter who you are or what kind of career you're aiming for, negotiation is a life-changing tool that will help you advocate your way into a career that aligns with how you work best...ESPECIALLY if you're a professional with ADHD, Dyslexia, or other neuro-divergent conditions.
Today I get the honor of introducing you to Juliarose Childs. She is the founder of Fe Negotiation, a company she created to equip womxn to advocate for themselves through negotiation preparation, practice, and personal coaching, offering a tangible way for every womxn to be involved in the fight for equal pay. Not only that, she also serves alongside another entrepreneur as the Integrator of the growth team at a legal tech startup, Skribe.ai.
While I couldn’t be more impressed with Juliarose’s gumption and creativity in the startup space, what I treasure even more about her is her generosity and openness in the way she shares about her journey with advocating for herself, as a professional learning to thrive with Dyslexia and ADHD.
Y’all should have seen the questions I came into this interview prepared to ask - I was fully ready to just talk about how to negotiate your compensation, but instead, we got an even richer conversation about how to advocate and negotiate EVERY part of your career, not just compensation, but even the roles itself, so you can thrive no matter what your circumstance is - even if you’re learning how to excel in systems that weren’t originally designed for neuro-divergent professionals like me and Juliarose.
It turns out we were both homeschooled after getting diagnosed with neuro-divergent conditions in our early years (me with ADD), leading to similar realizations about the school system and traditional corporate life not being environments that were made for us. In the process of figuring out a way to thrive, we both used an entrepreneurial spirit to figure out ways to make up our own careers by focusing on what we valued most. In it all, you’ll hear Juliarose share how you can advocate for yourself, no matter how you’re made and what you’re aiming for.
As you enjoy this conversation, remember that the best way to support the show is to text it to a friend and leave a review to let us know how this impacted you.
Enjoy!

47 min - 127: My friend, Laura Allen, and I share our testimonies (and how God called us to both quit our tech jobs and start podcasts 😅)
Teehee I have been WAITING to introduce y’all to my dear friend Laura Allen (lovingly called LA) who is the host of the Almost Somebody podcast.
Anytime we get together, we end up having a hot lava fire conversation about faith, living an adventurous life with God by being tuned into your specific purpose - and today was no exception! As per usual (as you can also hear in the interview we did together for her podcast), we ditch my traditional list of questions and go right into the heart of Laura’s testimony, in which God called her to leave a lucrative position in tech sales and go down more of a non-traditional route with a big vision in mind.
It’s crazy how much we can both relate in how God called us to faith, and to quit our tech jobs to start podcasts!
Further straying from convention, you’ll actually hear me join her in sharing some of the more personal pieces of my testimony in how God drew me into the decision to get re-baptized and fully commit my life to him as an adult in 2019.
Enjoy!

59 min - 124: Jacob Martin - How Crypto, NFTs, and Web3 will shape the future of life and work
Ok this week’s episode with NFT lawyer and investor, Jacob Martin, is downright epic.
No matter if you’re already invested in cryptocurrencies and NFTs or you have no idea what these technologies are, this conversation is for you.
In it, Jacob not only gives an introductory overview of these technologies and their potential uses, but we also explore three significant questions:
- Should these technologies matter to us, particularly as Christian professionals who want to have a redemptive influence in the marketplace?
- Why?
- What should we do about it?
Some other nuggets to the conversation you’ll hear are:
- With the future of crypto, artificial intelligence, and web3 and their goal to take out middlemen, should professionals like bankers, lawyers, accountants, and landlords start up-skilling in preparation of being replaced?
- How automations can be seen as an opportunity to return to God’s original vision and purpose for work, returning us back to our original callings put forth in Genesis chapter 1. Stick around to the end of our conversation for that one.
Alright. Enjoy!

57 min - 123: Emily Nemeth - Self-publishing, pivoting, moving cities, and having fun with your career
OK THIS WAS SO FUN! People like Emily are such a treasure: they turn ideas into things, trust their gut, don’t take it all too seriously (lol I’m terrible at this), and are just downright inspiring as they show us what can happen when you just go for it!
You'll hear Emily share:
- How she turned her iPhone photos into a book now being sold in select Barnes & Nobles, Fred Segal, Walmart online, Target, and Amazon
- How she pivoted from retail, to social media marketing, to ministry, to event planning, to project management

Enjoy!
