After two years away, The Influential Woman Podcast is back with a new focus. This episode shares why the shift matters, what’s changing, and how knowing your true identity transforms everything. 

If you’ve ever struggled with finding meaning in titles, purpose, or performance, this conversation will help you rethink influence and how to truly be an influential woman.

The discussion in this episode centre around:

• What happens when you base your identity on your title, calling, or achievements instead of Christ
• Why do so many women feel stuck even when they’re living “on purpose”
• How knowing your identity open doors and prevents burnout
• What the difference is between inspiration and motivation in how you influence others 
• How intimacy with Christ shapes your identity and direction

Inside IW Unleashed, we’ll be starting a book club using Jamie Winship’s book, Living Fearless, where we'll dive deeper into identity and freedom in Christ. Inside the community you’ll also find encouragement, clarity, and practical tools to help you live from who you are, not what you do.

Have you ever felt like the Children of Israel going around in circles and missing your exit to the promised land? I've been there - maybe not for 40 years, but long enough - and it's frustrating to say the least. 

In today's episode, I'm going to talk about two reasons I journal and how journaling literally saved me and my business when I was totally stuck.

• How journaling can put your life back into perspective
• Why I'm now happier speaking to women despite digging in my heels for so many years
• How to gain clarity on your purpose through journaling
• What simplifying my business looks like and it all resulted from years of journaling

One of the biggest outcomes from journaling was how I'd lost my voice - even though I wrote the book, Unleash the Hidden Power of Your Voice.

What journaling unintentionally did was helped me own my voice again. It's such a freeing experience and I hope this episode inspires you to start journaling - like tomorrow!

Enjoy ❤️

Castmagic - For me, this is the best productivity software I've used in years. I make use of the mobile element the most because I can't type as fast as I can think and often by the time I start writing, I lose the essence of what I was going to say. Lifesaver!!

What if the “low-energy, low-motivation, low-confidence” moments you’ve been blaming yourself for are actually symptoms of burnout you’ve been conditioned to ignore?

In this episode, we unpack what burnout really looks like for entrepreneurial women - especially when you’re juggling responsibilities, expectations, and “consulting with self” far too often.

Inside, we explore:

• What burnout actually looks like for solopreneurs (it’s not always emotional collapse)
• Why feelings of inadequacy or unmet expectations quietly fuel burnout
• Key burnout symptoms most women overlook
• How writing down what you want brings clarity and ease
• The role friction plays in business + life, and how to eliminate it
• How to move from exhaustion to alignment and thrive again

Do you ever feel like online marketing drains you instead of helping your cause?

If you’re a coach, consultant, or practitioner who loves what you do but hates the pressure of “showing up online,” this episode will feel like a deep exhale.

We talk about why the marketing tactics that work offline don’t always translate online - and how to find a simpler, more authentic way to grow your business.

Inside, we explore:

• Why “make money on autopilot” is one of the biggest myths online
• The difference between selling and giving value (and why it matters)
• How a simple plan behind the scenes removes overwhelm
• Why genuine connection beats sales scripts every time
• How sharing stories, hosting Q&As, and showing your process builds trust
• The power of consistency in creating an online presence that works

If you’ve been avoiding marketing because it feels fake, forced, or exhausting, you’ll leave this episode with clarity and a way forward that feels more like you.

Want support as you discover your identity, increase in confidence, and grow your business with clarity? You’re always welcome inside IW Unleashed.

In part 1 of our review of Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers, we took a deep dive into how God restores our identity. In part 2, we discuss how community shapes our lives and how God can use healthy communities to broaden our perspectives whilst at the same time, narrowing our focus when necessary.

In part 2, Fran and Trish discuss:

• The purpose of God bringing an unknown family into the lives of Michael Hosea and Angel
• When healing and restoration emanates from a healthy community
• How God uses the heart of a child to help us think the way He thinks - no malice
• How God co-joins people from diverse backgrounds to change our perspective
• And much more

Speaking of community, IW Unleashed, the new community membership for mission minded entrepreneurial women has launched.

Despite the criticism - mainly by those who never read the book but have jumped on the negative bandwagon - Redeeming Love is story of how God restores us, little by little. We all want overnight transformation but as I heard someone say one day, a lot of what we call deliverance is people needing knowledge - knowledge of WHO God is.

What Fran and I discuss about identity restoration from the perspective of the book is:

• How our identity is tainted - often from an early age - by circumstances, what we've believed about what people say about us and how the enemy confirms what we believe by what we later experience
• What rejection does to wound our souls
• Why God uses people in our identity restoration process but keeps ultimate ownership - pg 349 "Let her go beloved... would you let her hang on her own cross forever?"
• Why we should never underestimate the power of sowing seeds
• When love gets tainted and how God uses real love, His love, to restore our identity

I absolutely loved recording these episodes with Fran and honestly, if you've not yet read the book, you can grab your copy from Amazon.

By the way, I am not a novels person. My daughter had to beg me so many times before I relented. For her as a young person, she was grateful to learn before marriage the importance of intimacy and not just sex.
