Here's a hard truth about starting a business: nobody wants to fund you until you've already proven you don't need it.

That's the exact gap our seed grant program exists to close. We work hard to attract generous donors so we can award seed money grants - real dollars, plus coaching - to women who are early enough in their entrepreneurial journey that traditional funding won't touch them yet.

If that's you right now, it's not a character flaw. It's a funding gap. And it's solvable.

ACTIVATE starts MONDAY!

ACTIVATE is a 5-day online summit for Christian women in business who are tired of running their faith and their company on two separate tracks, as if Sunday is one person and Monday is another.

🙌 Worship opens Monday and runs for 24 hours.
🎤 Sessions begin Tuesday.

It's FREE, and registration is still open. I'd hate to see you miss it!

Is God calling to you in this season? Are you listening?

Step forward into all God has for you. Come to ACTIVATE!

👉 Register at the site listed on the graphic, or see my profile for registration details.

I want to do it, but I don't know how to get from A to B, and I don't know how I would finance it. If that is the thought running through your head, this clip is for you.

Don’t play the comparison game!

The story of Mary in the Bible has so many rich lessons to learn.

But what I most love about Mary is that she didn’t compare herself to anybody else!

She didn’t tell Gabriel that maybe he had the wrong girl or point out all the things she didn’t like about herself.

Nope. Mary believed that if God said it, she could do it.

Unlike Moses, who told God about all his speech issues (Exodus 4), or Jeremiah the prophet, who told God he was too young (Jeremiah 1), or Sarah, who laughed at God’s pronouncement that she would have a child in her old age, Mary believed in herself and in her God.

When you know whose you are, you don’t have to compare yourself to anyone else!
Ready to get off the comparison train?

You are the only one who can bring that dream to its proper realization –that is you and God.

He’s not handing you someone else’s dream and He’s not giving your dream to somebody else!

What He has for you is for YOU! Own it!

My first conference wasn't a solo act. Local women gave their time to speak. Musicians showed up to play. Fifteen women-owned businesses came in as vendors. We were even able to give back to a couple of local nonprofits led by women, right there at that very first event.

I didn't build that by myself. We built it together.

You don't need to have it all figured out before you start. You need a few people willing to show up with you.

I want to be really honest with you about something.

When The Entrepreneur's DREAM Course opens on October 12, it's opening as a BETA launch — and BETA pricing is 50% off. That is the lowest this course will ever be priced. Ever.

Why? Because as a BETA participant, you're not just enrolling — you're one of the first women to walk through it, and that's worth something to me. It's my way of saying thank you for trusting me early.

But here's what I need you to know: that 50% off window is only open for two weeks. After that, the doors close, and when they open again, it will be at full price.

If you've felt God nudging you toward this — toward finally building your business, ministry, or nonprofit on a foundation that actually holds — don't wait until the price goes up to say yes.

Join the waitlist today so you know the second enrollment opens. I'll see you inside. 💛 Comment DREAM and I'll send you the details.

I'm teaching:
*Wednesday, October 14th at 3:45 EST - Activate Your Strategy: Building a Business That Honors God and Grows on Purpose

Do you have a God-sized dream burning in your heart, but wake up each morning unsure of the first step?

I've been there. That overwhelming feeling when you know God has called you to something bigger, but the path forward feels foggy and intimidating.

As a passionate advocate for Christian female entrepreneurs, I founded She Steps Forward Coaching and She Steps Forward International because I believe your dreams aren't meant to stay dreams. They're meant to transform lives—starting with your own.
Here's what I know: You're not meant to navigate this journey alone. Through targeted strategic planning and individualized support, I help you step confidently from vision to action.

As a certified leadership coach and John Maxwell Team member, I bring both faith-based wisdom and proven business strategies to help you launch your business, ministry, or nonprofit successfully.
Your God-sized dream is waiting—and so am I.

Book a call and let's have a conversation about turning your calling into your reality.
