I've been in business for 7.5 years. One thing I've been concerned about for many of those years is hustle culture. Hustle culture is prevalent in the online business world, where long hours, pushing hard to make things happen, and striving out of your own strength are glorified and encouraged.

Another concerning practice that is common is the lack of real rest. While getting pedis and manis are great, and drinking wine isn't necessarily bad, following these practices won't give you real, lasting rest.

Listen to this episode on how to avoid the danger of hustle culture. I'm sharing a few embarrassing stories to illustrate my point.

A good money mindset as a business owner is so important to growth and success. Furthermore, a biblically-based money mindset is essential for Christian business owners.

Joining me to talk about this important topic is Lindsey Roman. Lindsey is a business coach, social media marketing aficionado, and photographer based out of Lawrence, Kansas. She's one of the founders of The Heart University and she co-hosts The Heart & Hustle Podcast, a top business podcast for creative entrepreneurs.

Lindsey's mission is to help women know their worth, value, and identity in who they are and boldly do what they were created to do. When she's not speaking, teaching, or dancing on Instagram, you can find her spending quality time traveling and adventuring with her daughters Eloise & Annalise and husband Andrew.

We chat about:

- Lindsey's view of abundance

- Why it's important to talk and think about biblical money mindset

- Stewardship

- How Lindsey, as a 7-figure business owner, stays grounded in her faith

- Studying the Bible is vital for a Christian business owner

Lindsey said "we want to invite God to be co-CEO with us." Her example of this is prayer walking and praying over her businesses.

Having worked with many 6-figure business owners, there are a few lessons that can be applied to any business to help it be more successful and profitable.

Remember, success is something you define - don't think that just because in the online space 6-figures is the "it" number to hit with profit that it's where you need to be.
