Kathi Lipp and her friend and change agent, Michele Cushatt talk about being the communicator God created you to be. Sometimes, well a lot of times, we have to have a serious heart to heart with ourselves and make some changes in our business/ministries.

Kathi gets personal and shares with you some big changes she’s made in her business and the questions to ask yourself if you are needing to make some changes too.

• What do I need to launch to grow my ministry?
• What do I need to leverage to maximize impact?
• What do I need to let go of because it's not serving me or my audience?
