The Daring Daughters

In this episode, I’m sharing an incredible personal testimony of deliverance from a demonic attack I’ve been battling for over two years. 🛡️ If you've ever experienced unexplainable struggles in your business or personal life, this episode is for you.

I dive into:

• How God prepared me for this breakthrough through a podcast I listened to earlier in the day.
• The spiritual warfare I've faced since starting my tech company in 2023, including strange night wakings that felt more like attacks than stress.
• How I recognized this as a spiritual battle and took authority in Jesus' name to cast it out, using prayer and spiritual tactics.
• The moment I commanded the attack to leave, how I felt peace like never before, and finally slept soundly.

We’re going deeper into why spiritual warfare is so critical for business owners and how we need both spiritual equipping and practical business acumen to thrive.

“...For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers...of this present darkness” (Ephesians 6:12).

Listen in to understand how you can take authority in your own battles, grow spiritually, and apply these lessons to your business.

In this episode, I dive into Hebrews 6:11-12 from the Amplified Version. As many of us are navigating busy seasons in life, I’ve found so much comfort and guidance in meditating on this passage.

Hebrews 6:11-12 (AMP): "And we desire for each one of you to show the same diligence all the way through, so as to realize and enjoy the full assurance of hope until the end, so that you will not be spiritually sluggish, but will instead be imitators of those who through faith (leaning on God with absolute trust and confidence in Him and in His power) and by patient endurance (even when suffering) are now inheriting the promises."

I break down what it means to show diligence, hold onto hope, and embrace patience. As a businesswoman, leader, and follower of Christ, this verse serves as a powerful reminder to lean on faith during challenging seasons.

In this episode, I share:

• How I’ve been applying this scripture to my own life.
• What "patient endurance" really looks like.
• Why diligence and hope are essential for anyone feeling stretched thin.
• Encouragement for those in the middle of demanding seasons who need to trust God’s promises.

Tune in and let’s dive into this verse together. 💡
