    How to Make Spirit-Led Business Decisions pt. 3

    **Disclaimer** We are currently on our annual winter break. This is a replay of an episode that aired earlier in 2025. In this continuation of the Bible on Business series, Tatum walks through Acts 16:6–10 to illustrate how critical it is for Christian entrepreneurs to embrace mobility and flexibility when building a business God’s way. Using Paul’s second missionary journey as a framework, this episode explores what it looks like to make strategic plans while remaining fully open to divine redirection. If you’re someone who knows you’re called but keeps facing closed doors, delays, or redirections that don’t make sense, this message is for you. Tatum speaks to the emotional and spiritual tension of following God with excellence while trusting Him to guide every step—even when plans change. She also shares a personal story about obeying the Holy Spirit with no confirmation and how that decision ultimately protected her and her family. This episode will shift your mindset around delays, reframe how you view closed doors, and help you move forward with peace and confidence. Key TakeawaysA closed door is not failure—it can be divine redirection.The Holy Spirit often leads us as we move, not before.Flexibility and mobility are vital for kingdom entrepreneurs.Being spiritual is not the same as being Spirit-led.Obedience does not always come with external confirmation.The people God is calling you to serve are already prepared to receive you.Scripture FocusActs 16:6–10 (ESV and The Message)Proverbs 16:9Romans 8:14Galatians 5:25This Episode is For You If:You are clear about your calling but uncertain about next steps.You’ve experienced unexpected closed doors and felt discouraged.You struggle to distinguish between faith and fear in business decisions.You are tired of waiting for external confirmation before obeying God.You want to operate in peace rather than anxiety as you build your business.Topics CoveredStrategic planning vs. spiritual discernmentWhat to do when you face delays, pivots, or redirectionsThe importance of maintaining spiritual rhythm in businessHow over-attachment to your vision can block divine movementThe role of fear and anxiety in clouding discernmentHow obedience leads to favor and alignment with your ideal clients Our Sponsors: * Check out IXL and use my code TODAY for a great deal: https://www.ixl.com Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/blessed-bossed-up7264/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    How to Make Spirit-Led Business Decisions pt. 2

    **Disclaimer** We are currently on our annual winter break. This is a replay of an episode that aired earlier in 2025. In this continuation of our Bible on Business series, we dive deeper into the process of making Holy Spirit-led business decisions. Picking up from Part 1 (based on Acts 8), today’s discussion focuses on Acts 13:1-4 and how divine strategy and clarity are birthed from a lifestyle of worship, fasting, and consistent submission to God. Tatum also shares critical biblical principles for discerning the spirit behind those who claim to be sent by God, offering practical steps to avoid deception and remain anchored in the truth. Key Points:Context of Acts 13: Shift from Jerusalem to Antioch, highlighting the transition from Peter’s leadership to Paul’s.Divine Strategy is Birthed from Worship and Fasting:Barnabas and Saul’s commissioning came in the middle of an existing posture of worship, not a strategic session seeking next steps.Application: Do not seek God only for strategy—pursue a lifestyle of submission, intimacy, and service.Beware of Misaligned Spiritual Leadership:Many modern Christian entrepreneurs and believers are spiritually "thirsty," making them vulnerable to deception.Importance of properly discerning who lays hands on you or influences your spiritual walk and business decisions.Principles for Discerning Spiritual Leadership:Test their confession of Jesus (1 John 4:1-3).Test the fruit of their life (Matthew 7:15-20).Test alignment with Scripture (Galatians 1:8-9; Isaiah 8:20).Test through the witness of the Holy Spirit (John 16:13).Practical Application:Ask key questions:Does this person exalt the true Jesus or themselves?Does their life consistently produce holy fruit?Are their teachings aligned fully with Scripture?Does the Holy Spirit bear witness within you regarding their message and conduct?Take your time before accepting any prophetic word or impartation. It is wise to "wait and see" rather than rushing based on emotions.Personal Story:Tatum shares her own journey of being patient during a wilderness season and how God’s deposits led to the launch of Anchored Media and her continued success, underscoring the power of patience and submission.Resources Mentioned:The Spirit-Filled Life by Charles Stanley – [Grab your copy here] https://a.co/d/cBARYuEBible references: Acts 13:1-4, 1 John 4:1-3, Matthew 7:15-20, Galatians 1:8-9, Isaiah 8:20, John 16:13Call to Action:Reflect: Are you seeking God’s hand or His heart first?Evaluate: Apply the principles of spiritual discernment shared today to your current business community and spiritual influences.Prepare: Join the Blessed + Bossed Up Book Club as we start The Spirit-Filled Life by Charles Stanley.

    His Strategic Timing

    **Disclaimer** We are currently on our annual winter break. This is a replay of an episode that aired earlier in 2025.  In this episode of Blessed and Bossed Up, we continue our Bible on Business series by diving into the significance of strategic timing. Tatum unpacks the powerful lessons from Acts 2, examining how the Lord orchestrated the perfect moment for Pentecost and how this applies to our business and leadership journeys. She discusses why waiting on God’s timing is crucial, how to avoid premature leadership, and how divine strategy ensures maximum impact. Through the transformation of Peter, the example of Chick-fil-A’s success, and personal reflections on her own journey, Tatum emphasizes the importance of trusting God's plan. If you’re in a season of waiting or feeling impatient about your business or calling, this episode will encourage and challenge you to surrender to God's divine orchestration. Key Takeaways: God’s Timing Ensures Maximum Impact: Pentecost happened at the exact right moment to maximize the spread of the gospel. Likewise, waiting on God's timing in your business will lead to greater impact.The Right People Will Be in Place When It's Time: God gathers the right audience, customers, and community when the timing aligns with His plan.Strategic Preparation Precedes Breakthrough: Just as Peter had to go through a transformation process, we must embrace personal and professional development while waiting for God’s move.Sudden Breakthroughs Are Often Years in the Making: From Jesus preparing 30 years for a 3-year ministry to Chick-fil-A’s 20-year foundation before expansion, major success takes time and patience.Avoid Premature Leadership & Decision-Making: Acting ahead of God’s plan can lead to consequences. Learning to wait well is key to success in both business and faith.Scriptures Mentioned: Acts 2:1-5 – The divine timing of PentecostLeviticus 23:15-16 – The significance of the Feast of WeeksDeuteronomy 16:16 – The biblical foundation for gathering at PentecostMatthew 16:16-23 – Peter’s faith and spiritual immaturityJohn 18:10-11 – Peter’s rash decision-making Our Sponsors: * Check out IXL and use my code TODAY for a great deal: https://www.ixl.com Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/blessed-bossed-up7264/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    When Obedience Costs You Everything

    In this vulnerable end-of-year episode, Tatum opens up about navigating a year of big transition—welcoming a new baby, starting law school, stewarding family and business, and still choosing to make God the CEO of it all. She shares how 2025 has exposed areas for growth, internal “shoulds,” and noise… but also how her foundation in God has kept her steady. Tatum also announces that the podcast will be on pause for December as she focuses on finals, rest, and seeking God for the next phase of the Bible on Business series—coming back in the new year with more teaching and visual, behind-the-scenes content. Then we dive back into Part 2 of her powerful conversation with Pastor Tiffany Sowah. Tiffany shares the real cost of obedience: relocating in 30 days off fragmented instructions from God, losing a major federal contract, walking through a “manna season” where she and her husband had just enough for each day, and even surrendering her dream car and apartment. She talks honestly about anger, depression, and feeling like she’d “lost everything”—and how God reframed it as giving everything up to follow Him. This episode is for the entrepreneur, leader, or believer who is: Wrestling with hesitation around a big instruction from GodQuestioning if they “heard Him right” because obedience led to hardshipIn a season where it feels like everything is being stripped, not addedWanting to understand what it really means to count the cost and still say “yes”We also share the heart behind the New Year’s Eve Prayer-a-thon, how it was birthed in the middle of Tiffany’s lowest financial season, and why you absolutely want to be in the virtual room this year. The Prayer-a-thon: Heart + InvitationHow the first Prayer-a-thon (Dec 2023) was birthed while Tiffany was working a seasonal job at Ross, living with her parents, and rebuilding from scratchThe purpose of the Prayer-a-thon: to end the year and enter the next one in the only place that sustains us—God’s presenceGrowing from an 8–12 hour broadcast to an 18–20 hour global prayer experience with people joining from all over the worldTestimonies of people who planned to “hop on for a bit” and ended up staying all dayWhy you should come ready to log in “for an hour”… but be prepared to want to stay much longer Register for the Prayer-a-thon: bit.ly/mwgprayerthon 💛 Partnership Spotlight: Heifer InternationalHeifer International is a global nonprofit that empowers women farmers like Akanbi Ashiata, who grew up in Lagos and struggled to access fair funding to grow her tomato business.

    The Cost of Obedience w| Pastor Tiffany Sowah

    In this episode of Blessed + Bossed Up, Tatum sits down with one of our favorites, Pastor Tiffany Sowah, for a real and raw conversation about what it actually looks like to depend on God in business, ministry, and life. The last time Tiffany was on the show was in 2020. Since then, everything has changed: she’s become Pastor Tiffany, married, relocated twice (from Philly to North Carolina and now living full-time in Ghana), shifted from multi–six-figure consulting to full-time ministry, and has walked through some of the hardest financial and emotional seasons of her life. In Part 1 of this conversation, Tatum and Tiffany talk about the Bible on Business journey, the difference between worldly “Christian-branded” strategies and truly building from the Word, and the uncomfortable reality of learning to really depend on God when everything in you wants to lean on hustle, self-reliance, or what looks “practical” on paper. Tiffany shares how God: Took her from a busy life in Philly as a property owner and multi–six-figure business ownerLed her to North Carolina for a softer, more peaceful lifestyle and deeper feminine identityBegan quietly preparing her heart to slow down in business and ramp up in ministryUsed isolation, relocation, and hidden seasons to cultivate boldness, honesty, and a lifestyle of obedienceThey also talk about: Growing up in church vs. actually forming a personal relationship with GodHow Catalyst Church in Philly became Tiffany’s training ground for intercession, obedience, and spiritual maturityWhy accountability, therapy, and spiritual covering matter so much when you’re hungry for GodThe danger of consuming only digital, “sound bite” faith and how to slow down and discern voices onlineWhy wanting “more” (peace, better quality of life, financial freedom, the ability to be a kingdom financier) isn’t wrong—but must be submitted to GodThis conversation is a masterclass in counting the cost, moving when God says move, and allowing Him to reshape your identity beyond hustle, proximity-based friendships, and public success. Stay tuned for Part 2, where they dig into what happened when Tiffany’s business unraveled, the reality of manna seasons, grief in transitions, and how God used it all to expand her global ministry and birth the Prayerthon. 🌍 Register for the End of Year PrayerthonJoin believers from around the world on December 31 for 18+ hours of prayer, teaching, and intercession across six core pillars of life. 👉🏾 Register here: bit.ly/mwgprayerthon 💛 Partnership Spotlight: Heifer InternationalHeifer International is a global nonprofit that empowers women farmers like Akanbi Ashiata, who grew up in Lagos and struggled to access fair funding to grow her tomato business.

    Faith Doesn’t Replace Fundamentals

    In this episode of Blessed + Bossed Up, Tatum continues the Bible on Business series with a sobering reminder: faith does not replace fundamentals. Yes, we pray, fast, and follow God’s leading—but we also have to be good stewards who understand the basic building blocks of business. Tatum walks you through what it really means to count the cost (Luke 14:28–30) and breaks down the core fundamentals every God-led entrepreneur needs in place so you’re not just starting things… you’re able to sustain and scale them with integrity. Sponsored by Heifer InternationalSo many women around the world are called by God to build, but lack access to basic financial resources. In Nigeria, 98% of women can’t access formal credit—no capital, no accounts, no way to grow what God has put in their hands. When you give to Heifer’s Microloan Impact Fund, 100% of your gift goes directly to women entrepreneurs so they can access the capital they need to build sustainable farms and businesses. Turn blessing into opportunity: fund a loan today at Heifer.org/blessed In This Episode, We Cover:Why “being super saved” isn’t enough to build a sustainable business – How many Christian entrepreneurs skip the unglamorous fundamentals and then blame God for what’s really mismanagement.Exegesis of Luke 14:28–30 – What Jesus meant when He said to count the cost before building. – How this applies directly to launching and running a business in 2025 and beyond.Faith + Fundamentals = Fruit that Lasts – Why spiritual disciplines (prayer, fasting, obedience) must be paired with practical disciplines (planning, numbers, systems). – How to avoid building businesses that look spiritual on the surface but are structurally weak underneath.The Core Fundamentals Every Business Needs Tatum breaks down “Business 101” in simple, God-first language:Executive Summary – Your God-given assignment in business and what you’re really here to do.Market Research – How to stop guessing and actually understand your industry + the people you’re called to serve.Products & Services – Clarifying what you’re selling and how it solves a real problem.Marketing & Sales Plan – Why “posting on social” isn’t a strategy and how to think in terms of your customer’s journey.Operations Plan – Systems, structure, and stewardship so your business can function without chaos.Financial Plan – Startup costs, pricing, margins, and budgeting so you’re not “successful” online but broke in real life.Risk & Legal Structure – Why you need professional counsel (attorney + accountant) and can’t skip this step.How Fundamentals Protect Your Witness – Why half-finished projects, abandoned brands, and messy business practices misrepresent the God you claim to serve. – How counting the cost upfront protects your name and His.Free Resources Mentioned:The Clarity Cleanse (30-Day Guided Detox) A free 30-day guide to help you quiet the noise, detox from distraction, and sharpen your ability to hear God concerning your business decisions.
