  • //182: Is Your Business Fueled by God’s Grace or Your Grind with Shae Bynes

    There are many business books out there but not many with a Kingdom perspective. One of the first books I read for business through a Kingdom lens was by today's guest, Shae Bynes. What an honor and privilege it is to get to share her with you today. Shae is a pioneer when it comes to teaching how to do business with God and someone who has impacted millions of entrepreneurs. In this episode, Shae and I talk about her journey to learn how to partner with God in business and do it with grace, rather than grinding her way to success. 


    Shae Bynes is a passionate storyteller, teacher, and mentor whose life and business was completely transformed through the power of encountering the unrelenting love of God. Her heart is to see marketplace leaders and families that are courageous, connected, and aligned with Kingdom purpose.


    Shae is the Founder and Chief Fire Igniter of Kingdom Driven Entrepreneur where she inspires, teaches, and mentors Christian entrepreneurs to be led by God in their businesses so they can experience His best and have a greater Kingdom impact in the marketplace.


    Together with her husband and high school sweetheart Phil, Shae helps couples strengthen their marriages by cultivating true intimacy through the power and love of God. Shae is the proud mother of 3 beautiful daughters and lives in the Fort Lauderdale, Florida area.

    Do you struggle to invest in yourself? If you don't, as a business owner, you're guaranteed to come across potential clients who do. It's important to understand the WHY to someone's objection because it gives you a deeper insight to what's really going on.

  • //177: Embracing AI: Empowering Entrepreneurs with Faith and Technology with Rowena Bolo

    In this episode of the Seek First CEO podcast, Heather welcomes her friend and special guest Rowena, an entrepreneur who has embraced the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in her business. They have an open conversation about the role of AI in the marketplace and how it can be utilized to further business goals while staying true to their faith.

    Rowena, originally from the Philippines and now based in Melbourne, Australia, shares her entrepreneurial journey. She initially aspired to build an SEO agency but realized it was leading to burnout and strained relationships. Recognizing that she had made her business an idol, Rowena underwent a journey of healing and deliverance, guided by her faith. She shifted her focus to using AI to assist podcasters and Christian entrepreneurs in spreading their message and achieving their God-given vision.

    Heather and Rowena discuss the power of AI as an assistant rather than a replacement for humans. AI has the ability to process vast amounts of data and provide valuable insights and content quickly. Rowena emphasizes the importance of incorporating a human touch to the AI-generated content, allowing for personalization and maintaining authenticity.

    They also explore the benefits of AI in SEO and content creation. Rowena mentions the AI tools she recommends, such as Castmagic IO for podcasters and Content at Scale for comprehensive content creation. These tools can streamline processes, save time, and generate high-quality content, making them valuable resources for entrepreneurs.

    Throughout the conversation, Heather and Rowena emphasize the importance of aligning AI usage with their faith and ensuring it serves as a tool rather than becoming an idol. They encourage listeners to explore the possibilities of AI in their businesses while staying true to their values and maintaining their unique voices.

    Overall, this episode provides valuable insights into the potential of AI in the business world, particularly for podcasters and entrepreneurs, while emphasizing the importance of maintaining a strong foundation in faith.
