  • 87. Make Social Media Work for You, Not Against You

    Social media can be one of the most powerful tools for good—or one of the biggest sources of distraction, comparison, and self-doubt. In this episode, Bonnie shares how to make social media work for you by becoming both an intentional consumer and an intentional producer.

    You’ll learn how to curate your feed, protect your time and peace, and invite God into your social media usage - so your online presence becomes a force for light, truth, and positive influence.

    You’ll Learn:
    • How to recognize when social media is draining your confidence or joy
    • Practical ways to curate your feed and protect your peace
    • Tools to help you set healthy limits around screen time
    • How to know what to share online
    • How to use social media to serve others and promote your inspired business mission
    • Why consistency and authenticity matter more than numbers


    When you invite God into your relationship with social media, you’ll stop being used by it—and start using it to bring light and goodness into the world.

  • 86. The Critical Role of Belief in Your Business

    Get my free marketing checklist and never ask yourself "What should I be working on today?" again!

    https://www.bonniewiscombe.com/marketing-checklist

    Building a business isn’t just about strategy - it’s about belief. When you’re creating something that’s never existed before, there’s no roadmap, no guarantees, and often, no evidence it's working for a long time.

    In this episode, I share how to build unshakable belief in yourself, your abilities, and the work God has inspired you to do - even when it feels like nothing is working yet. You’ll learn how to manage your mind, strengthen your faith, and stay motivated while you build something that's completely original.

    If you’ve ever wondered, “How do I keep showing up when I can’t see the results yet?” this one’s for you.

    In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
    • The role of belief in keeping your motivation strong when results are slow
    • How to find inspiration without falling into comparison
    • How prayer and spiritual connection keep your purpose front and center
    • Simple mindset tools to manage discouraging thoughts and replace them with faith-filled ones

    Scripture Mentions:
    • 2 Corinthians 5:7 – We walk by faith, not by sight.
    • Ether 12:27 – Weak things become strong through Him.
    • Matthew 17:20 – Faith as a mustard seed can move mountains.

    Journal Prompt: Where in my business do I need to choose belief again today?”

  • 79. Coach Highlight: Decluttering for Moms with Rachelle Heywood

    In this episode, I interview my friend and former client Rachelle Heywood who is a certified life coach and decluttering expert. She shares her journey of struggling with clutter amidst raising six kids and how she found peace through decluttering.

    Rachelle teaches us the mental and emotional aspects of letting go of physical possessions and shows us why our attachments to 'stuff' are often deeper (and more ingrained) than we realize.

    She also gives tips on how to start decluttering and emphasizes the importance of removing excess to foster better connections with family and oneself. Listen in to learn how decluttering can transform your life beyond just creating a tidy space.

  • 78. The REAL Reason God Called You to Your Business

    In this follow-up to Episode 75, we're diving deep into what it really means to trust God once you’ve invited Him into your business. If you’ve ever felt discouraged by slow progress, failure, or unmet expectations, this episode will reframe your perspective and remind you why you were called to this work in the first place.

    *Hint* It may not be what you think...

    What you'll learn:

    • Why God still called you—even knowing you'd "mess up"
    • How to define business success beyond money and metrics
    • Why "B-minus work" is more sustainable (and spiritual!) than perfectionism
    • The powerful connection between business growth and personal transformation
    • What to do when you feel like you're failing or falling behind

    Call to Action: If you haven’t already, go listen to Episode 75 about involving God in your business—then come back to this one to build on that message.

    Remember: God is rooting for you. And so am I.
