In this episode of Holy Business, Candice sits down with Matt Morizio, founder of Reconstructing Wealth, to talk about the faith-filled road of loss to building something that lasts. Matt shares his journey from couch surfing newlywed to legacy building wealth expert.

Together, they unpack what it looks like to shift gears when the hard work doesn't pay off in the way you thought, but as always God has something better in store.

We don't have to fear or put off wealth building for "when I'm ready." Join them and take your next step today.

In this solo episode of Holy Business, Candice Hilse gets personal about the restless drive many leaders feel—and the deep need behind it. She opens up about the tension between growth and satisfaction, the identity crisis that can come when the building season ends, and the danger of tying your worth to constant motion.

Candice challenges the idea that bigger always means better and reflects on how ambition can become a cap when it’s disconnected from purpose. She shares insights from her own coaching work with executives who feel stuck after building successful organizations and offers encouragement for those navigating the “now what?” season.

Whether you're leading a company, a church, or a vision-driven life, this episode will help you pause, reflect, and realign with what really matters.

Key themes:

• What to do when you're no longer building

• How visionaries process restlessness

• Avoiding identity traps in leadership

• Making room for spiritual and strategic clarity

In this vulnerable and wisdom-packed episode of Holy Business, Candice sits down with Mark Gerson to talk about building business and life with God at the center—even when the plan doesn’t go as expected. Megan shares her story of stepping away from a thriving company to answer a call to rest, listen, and rebuild. From the power of the wilderness season to learning how to let go of old identities, she offers a refreshingly honest take on entrepreneurship, obedience, and holy ambition.

You’ll hear how she discerned a shift in vision, battled fear and uncertainty, and found strength in silence and surrender. Whether you’re in a season of explosive growth or painful pause, Megan’s story will help you remember that sometimes the most powerful building starts with tearing it all down.

In this deeply insightful and energizing conversation, Candice sits down with author and entrepreneur, Mark Gerson, to unpack the practical wisdom of scripture, and its uncanny alignment with modern social science. Mark shares how ancient biblical principles offer timeless, actionable guidance for business, leadership, and daily living.

From entrepreneurial risk-taking to the psychology of what we wear, Mark bridges faith and science with wit and rigor. He explains how everything sacred requires preparation, why "remembering" in scripture always calls for action, and how concepts like “job crafting” mirror the biblical story of Joseph. The discussion also dives into practical truths about work-life rhythm, the true definition of success, and how biblical patterns can reframe everything from picking a spouse to structuring your week.

Whether you're a faith-driven founder, a curious executive, or someone craving meaningful insights for work and life, this episode delivers inspiration backed by both scripture and science.

🔥 Key Topics:

• Scripture’s definition of leadership and responsibility

• Why action is the true measure of knowledge

• Fashion psychology and Rebecca’s ancient wisdom

• The sacred balance of work and rest (yes, 55 hours is biblical and optimal)

• Job crafting and finding purpose wherever you are

• A biblical guide to choosing your spouse—and why love comes last

This week, we wrestle with authority and obedience- what is healthy and what isn't? How do we identify it? Why do some people challenge authority and others obey even when authority is unhealthy or even unethical? Most importantly, what does scripture have to say about it and what is our responsibility in top level authority roles?

Scripture Reference:

Romans 13

Matthew 20:25-26
