Are you in that in between phase, where you're looking forward to more, and you're wondering how your now fits into the next? Tune in for a timely lesson on understanding the purpose in your process.

As you listen, please know that this season matters just as much as the one you're praying for. Trust God and honor your season.

Hey sis! In this episode of Faithin it, I’m sharing a conviction that hit me hard—and I know it’s going to bless you too. Bad boundaries lead to bad stewardship. Whew! From impulse shopping and Shein hauls to mishandling time, money, and even our callings—this is a heart-to-heart I had to have with myself, and now I’m inviting you into it too.

We walk through Luke 16, reflect on real-life examples, and I share how the Lord convicted me in Ross (yes, that Ross). We're talking real accountability, internal shifts, and honoring the things God already gave us—before we go asking for more.

Grab your book, "Boundaries" by Dr. Henry Cloud & Dr. John Townsend, because we’re diving into it together over the next few episodes. I’ll walk with you, we’ll hold each other accountable, and we’ll grow as stewards, together.

Hey sis! Are you caught up in the hustle and bustle of becoming, that it's becoming hard to just be? Today we’re diving into how hustle culture hurts your effectiveness for the Kingdom of God.

I want to remind you that becoming is just as much about unlearning as it it learning, and we’re confronting a lie many God-fearing, goal-driven women have come to believe: that we must operate with "no days off" in order to honor God, serve others, or reach our goals.

But sis, that’s not biblical—it’s burnout.

Tune it, as we dive into the importance of honoring the Sabbath, not just as a day off, but as a divine command and a gift from God. 

If you’ve been running on fumes and calling it “faith”... sis, take a breath. This one’s for you.

• Matthew 11:28
• Genesis 2:2
• Deuteronomy 5:12–15
• Exodus 16:13–30

• Philippians 4:6–8

In this powerful and transparent episode, LeShawnda dives into the topic of letting God rebrand you from the inside out. In a world obsessed with outward appearances, personal branding, and "becoming her," this episode calls us to pause and examine what it means to undergo a spiritual identity shift led by God—not culture.

LeShawnda shares personal experiences of how God stripped her of performance-based identity and rooted her confidence in Christ, even down to reclaiming her given name. Through the analogy of plants and pruning, she explores how God works beneath the surface, in our "root zone," to bring about lasting transformation.

Tune in for a much needed mindset shift, and the invitation to allow God to rebrand your heart, mindset, and habits, so you can flourish in purpose, identity, and fruitfulness.

On the journey of becoming, it's important to just be... In this episode is the girl chat that you didn't know you needed, but feels like a phone call that's right on time. We're talking about embracing rest, releasing the pressure of constant self-improvement, and learning to simply BE in God's presence. 

Sharing her own experiences with hustle culture, imposter syndrome, and the emotional challenges of accepting God’s fatherly love, LeShawnda speaks candidly about the power of stillness, obedience, and spiritual rest.

It's time to stop measuring your worth by performance or perfection and instead find confidence in your identity as daughters of God. The message is simple but powerful: Don’t lose yourself in becoming —just be.

In this episode, we unpack how the desire to “become better” can quietly lead us into a trap of self-idolatry—putting our goals, habits, and image above God's truth. Sis, if you’ve been doing all the "right things", but still feel exhausted, spiritually stuck, or low-key resentful, this is your moment to pause and repent.

We walk through the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector in Luke 18:9-14, and I break down how even our well-intentioned striving can turn into a performance rooted in pride or people-pleasing. We talk real about how burnout isn’t always from laziness—it can actually come from idolizing your own efforts and losing sight of grace.

Together, we’ll identify what’s been sitting on the throne of your heart, how to release control, and how to realign your worth with what God already says about you. Press pray. and prepare your heart to be transformed by the power of God.

In this powerful episode, I'm kicking off our Identity Series by diving deep into the question: Who do you say you are? 

I'm sharing personal insights into my journey of discovering my identity in Christ,from my struggles with fear, people-pleasing, and imposter syndrome. I open up about hesitating to call myself a “woman of God” and how God has patiently refined me through Scripture, faith, and vulnerability. 

This episode calls you to shift your focus from society’s version of the “highest self” to embracing who they are in Christ. I'm also referencing The Awe of God by John Bevere, to discuss the differences between our perceived, projected, and actual selves.

Whether you’re in the midst of spiritual growth or wrestling with your purpose, this episode encourages you to let go of worldly validation and root your identity in God's truth.
