  • A New Season Is Beginning

    Hi my love,

    This episode comes from a very real season of change.

    There are moments in life where things feel like they’re shifting…internally, externally, or both and you can’t quite name what’s happening yet. You just know something is different.

    In this podcast episode, I share what I’ve been learning in that space and the quiet reminder I’ve had to return to when things feel uncertain.

    If you’re in a season where clarity feels far away, this one is for you.

    While you listen, I want you to remember: You don’t need perfect clarity to stay faithful to what you’ve been called to.

    You don’t need perfect clarity to stay faithful to what you’ve been called to.

    Let us pray.

    Lord, when I can’t see the full picture, help me stay faithful to what You’ve already placed in my hands. Quiet the noise, steady my heart, and remind me that I am still being led… even here.

    I hope this meets you where you are.

    With all my love,

    Karla, the Catholic Life Coach

  • It Was Never About the Business

    Hi my love,

    In this week’s podcast, I sit down with my client Talina to talk about the transformation God has led her through over the past two years. You can find Talina on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/tucoachcatolica

    When Talina first found me, she wanted help growing her watercolor business and creating an online course.

    What she didn’t expect was that God would use that desire to lead her into deeper healing, greater freedom, and a completely different understanding of what success actually means.

    One of my favorite things she shared was something like this:

    “It was never about the result. It was about the process. It was about who you needed to become.”

    So many of us think our goals are the destination.

    But what if God is using those desires to form something much deeper inside of us?

    In this conversation, Talina shares how coaching helped her move from feeling stuck, powerless, and frustrated with her circumstances to discovering a new level of freedom, trust, and partnership with God.

    If you’ve been feeling discouraged because things aren’t happening as quickly as you’d hoped, I think this episode will encourage you.

    Listen in now and I pray it blesses you!

    With all my love and prayers,

    Karla, the Catholic Life Coach

  • God Never Asked You to Do It Alone

    Hello, my love,

    Can I ask you something?

    When someone offers to help you, what is your first response?

    Do you receive it with gratitude?

    Or do you immediately think, “No thanks, I’ve got it”?

    This week on the podcast, I’m talking about something that quietly keeps so many women stuck: our resistance to receiving.

    ✨ One thing I want you to remember:

    You can only give to the extent that you’re willing to receive.

    If you’ve been feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or stuck in the same place, this episode might reveal something you haven’t considered before.

    In this episode, we’ll talk about:

    * Why receiving feels so uncomfortable

    * How this shows up in business and everyday life

    * What changes when you finally allow yourself to receive God’s gifts with open hands

    🙏 A Prayer for This Week

    Lord, help me release the belief that I have to do everything on my own. Open my heart to receive Your grace, Your guidance, and the support You place in my life. Teach me to trust You more and strive less. Amen.

    My love, what if the breakthrough you’re praying for isn’t something you need to earn?

    What if it’s something God is already offering?

    Listen in and let’s talk about it.

    With all my love,

    Karla, the Catholic Life Coach

  • What God Wants You to Remember When You Feel Behind

    Hello my love,

    This week’s podcast episode is one of my favorite conversations because it speaks to something so many of us struggle with: comparison.

    Whether it’s someone else’s business, timeline, body, home, success, or calling, it’s so easy to start looking sideways and convincing ourselves that we are somehow behind.

    On the podcast, I speak the truth I want you to remember today… and every day.

    You are not behind.

    And in this episode, I share one of the most powerful visual examples I’ve been coaching my clients through lately.

    In this episode, we talk about:

    * Why comparison creates unnecessary suffering

    * The truth about everyone living a “50/50” life

    * How gratitude changes the way we co-create with God

    * Why you are not behind

    * The mindset shift that helps you celebrate where you are right now

    My prayer for you this week is that you stop minimizing your growth and start celebrating the life God is building in front of you today.

    Because abundance begins with gratitude.

    Listen to the full episode when you have a moment; I think this one is going to stay with you.

    With so much love and blessings,

    Karla the Catholic Life Coach

    P.S. If you are a Catholic woman entrepreneur ready to stop second-guessing yourself and finally move forward with clarity, confidence, and faith-aligned momentum, my Catholic Business Breakthrough course is now open at founding member pricing through June 7.

  • Comfort Might Be Keeping You Stuck in Your Calling

    My love,

    This week’s episode is one I feel deeply because I’ve lived both sides of it.

    I talk a lot about not hustling and about rest and surrender.

    But there is another side no one talks about enough:

    The place where we stop hustling and on purpose — stop moving.

    In today’s episode, I’m sharing what it really looks like to stay in alignment with God while still taking courageous action toward what He’s placed in your heart.

    Because growth in your business and life doesn’t come from burnout…but it also doesn’t come from staying comfortable.

    It comes from co-creation, prayer AND action, rest AND obedience, trust AND movement.

    If you’ve been feeling stuck, unsure if you’re meant to wait or act, this one will meet you right where you are.

    Listen now and come back to your calling with clarity.

    And if this conversation stirs something in you—that quiet pull towards more, towards the work God placed in your heart—I want to invite you into something I built specifically for you.

    It is called the Catholic Business Breakthrough: https://www.karlafitz.com/the-catholic-business-breakthrough It is a four-week course for Catholic women entrepreneurs who are ready to stop second-guessing their calling and finally move with clarity, confidence, and faith-aligned momentum.

    Founding member pricing is $97 through June 7th, and you can find everything you need here: https://www.karlafitz.com/the-catholic-business-breakthrough

    Until next time, remember, you were not made to play small. You were made to co-create with God at the center, boldly and faithfully.

    I’ll see you in the next episode.

  • The Quiet Hustle: Why Catholic Entrepreneurs Burn Out

    Hi my love,

    I had a moment this week where I caught myself doing something again.

    Something I talk about often with my clients.Something I teach women to watch for.

    And yet, there I was right in the middle of it.

    It happened during a really full week in my business. Lots of creation happening, a launch, and many moving pieces behind the scenes.

    And suddenly I realized something: “Oh… yep. I’m doing it again.”

    Even after almost five years of coaching. Because the truth is, I’m human.

    In this week’s episode I’m sharing:

    * what that moment looked like

    * why it happens so easily for ambitious women

    * the reminder that came to me right in the middle of it

    If you’ve ever felt like you just need to keep going because everything depends on you…

    I think this episode will speak right to your heart. I can’t wait for you to listen!

    A short prayer for your week

    Lord, Help me remember that You are the one carrying my mission.Give me the wisdom to pause when I need to pause,and the trust to know that nothing meant for me will pass me by. Amen.

    Karla, the Catholic Life Coach 🤍

    P.S. My love, if you’ve been feeling called to grow in your faith, your mindset, and the work God placed in your heart, I’d love to invite you inside The Abundant Catholic Movement.

  • The Mother Teresa Quote That Stopped Me This Morning

    Hi my love,

    One recent morning during prayer my eyes landed on a quote from Mother Teresa that stopped me in my tracks.

    “Sometimes I feel so helpless and weak. I think that’s why God uses me… because I cannot depend on my own strength. I rely on Him 24 hours a day.”

    Let that sink in.

    One of the most holy women we’ve seen in our lifetime felt weak.

    She didn’t rely on her strength. She relied on God’s.

    And honestly? That’s something I’ve been realizing deeply in this season of life and business.

    In this week’s episode, I’m sharing:

    * why weakness might actually be part of your calling

    * what the enemy does when you start stepping into your mission

    * why the work God put on your heart requires you to rely on Him daily

    If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, unsure, or like the dream God gave you might be too big for you, this episode is for you.

    Before you listen, let’s pray together:

    Lord, thank You for the mission You place in my heart. When I feel weak, remind me that Your strength is enough. Help me trust You more than I trust my fears. Lead my steps and use my yes for Your glory.Amen.

  • The Abundance Without Apology Challenge: Day 2

    Hi my love,

    Happy Sunday. I have a gift for you today…

    Today I’m sharing the Day 2 bonus episode of the Abundance Without Apology Challenge on the podcast.

    Today we go deeper.

    We talk about something many Catholic women feel uncomfortable discussing… money.

    Not money from a place of hustle or pressure.

    But money as a spiritual tool that can expand your mission and the impact you create in the world.

    Inside this episode we explore:

    * why your relationship with money matters more than strategy

    * how your beliefs about money shape the results in your business

    * what actually creates consistent income

    * and how to expand your capacity to hold more impact, visibility, and leadership

    Because the truth is this:

    Many women don’t struggle with business because they lack strategy.

    They struggle because of what’s happening inside their identity, beliefs, and nervous system.

    And when those things begin to shift, everything else begins to change too.

    This is exactly the work we do together inside The Abundant Catholic Movement, where Catholic women entrepreneurs learn how to build consistent, God-aligned income without burnout, guilt, or doing it alone.

    And a quick reminder:

    If you decide to join the movement, the special bonuses end tomorrow!

    Those include:

    * a private 1:1 coaching session with me

    * a business audit to identify what’s working and what’s keeping you stuck

    * and a special class to help you clarify your offer and message

    If you’ve been listening to the challenge and feeling that little nudge in your heart… this may be your invitation to go deeper.

    Listen in now!

    I’m so excited for you to hear this one.

    With all my love and prayers,Karla the Catholic Life Coach 🤍

    The Abundant Catholic Movement is OPEN (and bonuses end tomorrow)! Join here: https://www.karlafitz.com/the-abundant-catholic-movement

  • The Abundance Without Apology Challenge: Day 1

    Hi my love,

    Can I share something with you?

    If you’ve been feeling a quiet tension lately like nothing is “wrong,” but something still doesn’t feel aligned, this episode is for you.

    * Maybe you love God deeply, but feel conflicted about wanting more.

    * Maybe you’ve been working hard, but still feel stuck in burnout or inconsistency.

    * Maybe you sense you’re meant for more, but don’t fully trust that it’s okay to want it.

    This episode is about that space.

    Because what if it’s not about doing more…but about what you’ve been believing about yourself, your desires, and what’s possible with God at the center?

    In this conversation, I share the shift that changed everything for me—personally and in business—and why so many women stay stuck longer than they need to.

    We also touch on:

    * money and alignment

    * hustle that doesn’t last

    * isolation and its impact on vision

    * and why your desires might not be random

    If something in you is stirring, don’t ignore it. I can’t wait for you to hear, my love! And come back tomorrow for part 2. It’s going to be powerful.

    I’ll meet you there!

    Love,

    Karla the Catholic Life Coach

  • When Pleasing People Pulls You Away From God’s Calling

    Hi my love,

    Have you ever said yes to something… and immediately wished you hadn’t?

    Maybe you lowered your prices because someone asked.

    Maybe you overcommitted to something that didn’t feel aligned.

    In this week’s podcast episode, we talk about something that quietly shows up for many women in business:

    People pleasing.

    When we start seeking approval from everyone around us, we slowly move further away from the calling God placed on our hearts.

    In the episode we talk about:

    * why people pleasing often shows up when you start a business

    * the signs you might be saying yes when your heart is actually saying no

    * how fear of judgment can keep you from fully showing up in your mission

    * and how to begin choosing God’s direction over people’s expectations

    …And my love, if this topic speaks to you, I have something special for you!

    Free 3-Day Challenge: Abundance Without Apology

    April 13–15 I’m hosting a free challenge for Catholic entrepreneurs who want to heal their relationship with money and grow their mission with God at the center.

    You can save your spot here: www.karlafitz.com/abundance
