    87. 5 Prayers for Your Small Business | Christian Entrepreneurs

    Live in North Houston? Check out our new in-person meeting https://webuild.lindsayfletcher.co Download 5 Prayers for Your Small Business https://prayer.lindsayfletcher.co    Episode 87 of How to Grow My Small Business is a special one. Today, I’m sharing 5 powerful prayers for business owners because as Christian entrepreneurs, our faith and our work are deeply connected. Running a small business can feel overwhelming at times. There are sales goals to hit, relationships to build, strategies to create, and endless tasks pulling at your attention. But as believers, we know that prayer is the foundation of everything we do. When we seek God’s wisdom and align our businesses with His Kingdom purpose, we can move forward with peace, confidence, and clarity. In this episode, I’ll walk you through five Scripture-inspired prayers you can use daily or in moments when you need direction, encouragement, or fresh vision. These prayers focus on: Habits and routines that draw us closer to God and closer to success in business. Multiplication of resources, relationships, and Kingdom impact. Christ-like relationships with customers, employees, and communities. Vision and boundaries that allow us to thrive where God has planted us. Obedience to God’s plan, even when it doesn’t make sense on the surface. If you’ve ever wondered how to keep your faith at the center of your business, or you’re craving prayers that go beyond generic blessings and actually speak to the challenges of entrepreneurship, this episode will encourage you and equip you.

    86. Creating Margin with Delegation & Time Management for Small Business Owners

You’re not alone. As small business owners, we’re often told that success only comes from hustling harder, working 24/7, and showing up on every single platform. But here’s the truth: hustle culture is a lie, and it’s costing you your peace, your joy, and sometimes even your profits. In today’s episode of How to Grow My Small Business, I’m getting real about hustle culture, margin, and why constantly being “busy” isn’t the badge of honor we think it is. Instead of cramming 20 pounds of potatoes in a five-pound sack (yes, I’ve been guilty of that!), I want to show you how to break free from overcommitment, set boundaries, and create space to breathe in both your life and your business. We’ll talk about: The symptoms of hustle culture you might be experiencing right now (think exhaustion, snapping at loved ones, or feeling out of control). The roots of busyness—fear of failure, pride, misplaced identity—and how they might be driving your decisions. Biblical examples of rest and margin that model how we’re meant to live and lead, not hustle endlessly. Practical ways to create space in your business, from delegating tasks like bookkeeping or social media to evaluating your calendar and cutting what doesn’t serve you. How margin can fuel creativity, problem-solving, and long-term growth in your business. If you’ve ever woken up already overwhelmed, ended your day still exhausted, or felt like you can’t keep up no matter how much you accomplish, this episode will encourage you to step off the hamster wheel and choose a better way. It’s time to unsubscribe from hustle culture and start running your business with strategy, clarity, and margin. Let’s break up with busy—together.

    84. Audit Your Time and Energy to Prepare for Q4

    https://momentum.lindsayfletcher.co Episode 84: Audit Your Time and Energy to Prepare for Q4 We’re heading into Q4—the final stretch of the year—and whether your business has felt smooth or messy, this is your chance to reset, refocus, and finish the year strong. But before you make a big plan, you need to know where your time and energy are really going. In this episode of How to Grow My Small Business, I’m walking you through a practical exercise to audit your time, your energy, and your money makers so you can make better decisions about what to keep, what to delegate, and what to cut before heading into Q4. Because here’s the truth: if you don’t know where your time is going, you can’t manage it. And if you don’t know what drains your energy, you can’t protect it. Both are essential to running a small business that doesn’t leave you exhausted and overwhelmed. This is an episode you’ll want to grab a notebook for! What you’ll learn in this episode: How to track your time (and the surprising places it might actually be going) Why energy is just as important as hours when planning your week How to identify the money-making activities in your business The 3 categories every task should fall into: prioritize, delegate, or cut How to align your time and energy with your top Q4 priorities so you end the year strong Quotes from the episode: “If you don’t know where your time is going, you can’t manage it. And if you don’t know what drains your energy, you can’t protect it.” “Not all hours are equal—some tasks energize you, others drain you. Build your calendar around energy, not just time.” “When you know your money makers, you can prioritize what actually moves your business forward and stop wasting energy on the rest.” If you’re ready to finish Q4 with focus instead of distraction, this episode will give you the clarity and tools to do it.
