Ever felt like your business is taking over your life? Even coming before family and friends? Maybe you are feeling overwhelmed or constantly feeling in the weeds in your business? Are you searching for a way to align your business and entrepreneurial spirit with God's purpose for you? 

In this episode, I’m sharing my journey from a corporate job to entrepreneurship, driven by the desire to be present for my son; and how my business became an idol, overshadowing my faith and personal life. I have ten signs that indicate your business might be an idol, including financial dependency and neglecting family. I’m also sharing my struggles with identity, health, and intimacy, emphasizing the importance of aligning our work with God's purpose.

There are seasons in our lives as Christian entrepreneurs when dreaming with God feels effortless and exhilarating. Yet, there are also seasons when it seems daunting and even impossible. Regardless of which season you find yourself in right now, I want to remind you of this powerful truth: God deeply cares about your dreams. He delights in hearing the desires of your heart, right down to the smallest details.

In this episode, I have the privilege of hosting my client and dear friend, Melanie, owner of Anne & Grace Boutique who will share her personal journey of dreaming with God and the awe-inspiring ways He showed up in her life and business. Together, we explore the significance of mindset and heartset in the process to allow you to dream with God again!

Join us as we dive deep into the conversation, encouraging and motivating you to embrace vulnerability and pour out your heart's desires before God, holding nothing back, no matter how big or small.

If you've been settling for less than God's best and are ready to break through the limitations that have been holding you back, I invite you to book a one-on-one call with me. Simply fill out the form provided, and the Seek First CEO team will reach out to you for next steps!

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.

100K month. As a teacher, I knew I'd never make that in a year let alone was it possible to make in one month. As entrepreneurs, making money is part of owning a business and man oh man has God taught me a thing (or 100) about money.

The entrepreneur journey is not linear. In fact, it seems we often have to try things out to "get it right".  If you're in a corporate job that doesn't make you happy or started an entrepreneurial business that isn't quite doing it for you wondering what God is up to, this episode is for you!

Sometimes God will allow us to be uncomfortable to guide us into THE THING He's been preparing for us all along.
