    Sober Living

    Tatum is in the trenches of her first-year law school finals, so this week she's bringing back one of her most foundational episodes — and as she always says, when an oldie comes back around, trust that the Lord is bringing it back for a reason. Whether you've heard it before or this is your first time, this one is worth sitting with. In this episode, Tatum opens up about the early years of making God the CEO of her business and introduces a new series focused on the application of faith-driven entrepreneurship — not just the information, but the lived practice. Before diving into strategy, marketing, or business plans, she makes the case that we have to start with sobriety: freeing ourselves from the influences, distractions, and cultural pressures that pull our focus away from the Lord and onto the metrics of the world. In this episode, Tatum covers: Why sobriety is the non-negotiable foundation before any business building can beginThe story of how obedience during a season of stripping and pruning led to her most fruitful breakthroughsThe moment she hit her first six-figure year — and why her reaction to it changed everythingHow entrepreneurship can become its own kind of intoxicationA word for anyone being called to pioneer something new, even when it feels lonely and irrationalThe 5 Substances to Detox From: Success culture and performance pressureDigital noise and comparisonMixed mentorshipMaterialism and metrics-based validationOver-independenceScriptures Referenced: 1 Peter 5:81 Thessalonians 5:6–8Mark 14:38Action Step: Download the free Clarity Cleanse guide (linked in show notes) — a month-long detox plan with weekly focus areas, scriptures, action steps, and prayer points to help you build the sober, focused foundation your business needs.

    How to Stop Rushing: Jesus, the Rule of Life & Building Margin

    In this episode, we continue our book club series on The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark Comer, wrapping up the final chapter of Part Two and covering the intermission that sets the stage for Part Three. We open with one of the most convicting observations in the book: Jesus was rarely — if ever — in a hurry. Through stories like the raising of Lazarus and the healing of Jairus's daughter, the author paints a picture of a Savior who was fiercely present, completely unhurried, and never agitated by interruption. That kind of peace has a name we hear a lot today: a regulated central nervous system. In this episode, we break down what that actually means, share some eye-opening data about how many of us are functioning in a state of chronic stress, and then make the case that Jesus didn't just model a regulated nervous system — He modeled something that surpasses the very standard modern science is striving toward. We then dig into the concept of margin — the space between your load and your limits — and get practical about what it looks like to actually build it into your life. From contingency planning and backup childcare to protecting your mornings and setting an evening shutdown time, this episode gets real about what margin looks like for busy women wearing multiple hats. From there, we explore the trellis metaphor: just as a trellis gives a vine the structure it needs to grow and bear fruit, a rule of life gives your walk with Jesus the structure it needs to actually take root. We talk about why Jesus must be the center — not career, not motherhood, not success — and how the structures we build either support or undermine that priority. We close out with the intermission from the book, which sets up Part Three by distinguishing between discipline and spiritual discipline — and why the latter gives you access to a power that willpower alone simply cannot reach. In this episode: Why Jesus is the ultimate example of a regulated nervous system (and then some)What nervous system dysregulation actually looks like — and the stats that prove it's a public health issueThe difference between a full schedule and a hurried oneHow to create a contingency plan so that life's interruptions don't blow up your whole weekWhat a "rule of life" is and why it started in the monastery, not Silicon ValleyThe trellis metaphor and why structure isn't the enemy of freedom — it's the path to itHow to approach the four Gospels the same way you'd read a biography of someone you admireWillpower vs. spiritual discipline: why one gets you so far and the other gets you to Jesus 📖 The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark Comer — grab your copy Our Sponsors: * Check out Time4Learning: https://www.time4learning.com Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    A Call for Godly Ambition

    In this episode, Tatum unpacks the difference between selfish ambition and godly ambition, challenging listeners to examine not just what they are pursuing, but why. Through personal reflection, biblical teaching, and practical examples, she reveals how easy it is to drift into misalignment—even with good intentions. This conversation calls you into deeper self-awareness, Spirit-led decision-making, and true wholeness, emphasizing that sustainable success in both life and business must be rooted in God. Key TakeawaysAmbition itself is not wrong, but its source determines whether it is aligned with God.Self-awareness is critical for identifying the true motivations behind your goals.External success can hide internal misalignment.Godly ambition is led by the Holy Spirit, not by outcomes, validation, or trends.Your definition of success will evolve as you grow in faith and maturity.True alignment requires healing from the brokenness that often drives achievement.Scriptures ReferencedPhilippians 2:3 (ESV): Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.James 3:13–16: A warning against selfish ambition, describing it as earthly and leading to disorder.Galatians 5:22–23: The fruit of the Spirit as evidence of a Spirit-led life.What is Selfish Ambition?Selfish ambition is a drive rooted in: EgoPrideComparisonControlBrokennessDesire for validationIt is not always obvious. It can begin with good intentions but becomes misaligned when God is no longer the source. What is Godly Ambition?Godly ambition is: Spirit-ledRooted in obedienceFocused on serving God and othersCentered on bringing God glory rather than personal recognitionThe defining factor is what is driving your decisions: the Holy Spirit or your desire for results. The Subtle Shift from Godly to Selfish AmbitionA key example shared in the episode illustrates how this shift can happen: You begin in obedience and full dependence on GodYou experience growth and positive resultsResults slow down or declineYou begin seeking external solutions (trends, algorithms, validation)Your source shifts from God to performanceThis shift is often gradual and difficult to detect without intentional self-examination. How to Course CorrectWhen you feel frustrated or see changes in results: Pause instead of reacting impulsivelyTake your emotions to God honestlyAsk:Did I get off track?Is there something you want me to change?Wait for His responseObey, whether He says to adjust or remain consistentThe goal is to remain aligned with God, not to chase outcomes. The Root Issue: BrokennessMany forms of ambition are driven by unresolved issues such as: A need for validationFear of lack or instabilityDesire for controlPast wounds or traumaWithout healing, it becomes difficult to sustain a God-centered approach to success. Measuring Your Motivation: The Fruit of the SpiritUse the fruit of the Spirit as a diagnostic tool: LoveJoyPeacePatienceKindnessGoodnessFaithfulnessGentlenessSelf-controlIf these are absent in your process or decision-making, it may indicate misalignment. Action Step: Fast and SurrenderTatum encourages listeners to: Fast from 6 AM to 6 PM (if medically able)Spend intentional time with GodBe honest about fears, control, and disappointmentInvite God to address the root causes of misalignmentThis is not about behavior modification but heart transformation. Reflection QuestionsWhat is driving my ambition right now?Am I seeking God’s approval or external validation?Where have I prioritized outcomes over obedience?What unresolved issues may be influencing my goals?Final EncouragementGod is not focused on your performance—He is focused on your heart. Seasons of slowing down, stagnation, or even decline are not punishment. They are often invitations to return to alignment, deepen intimacy with God, and rebuild from a place of wholeness Our Sponsors: * Check out Time4Learning: https://www.time4learning.com Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    Beating Burnout

    In this episode of Blessed + Bossed Up, we continue our book club discussion of The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark Comer, shifting from diagnosing the problem of hurry to uncovering the solution. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, burnt out, or stuck in a cycle of doing too much, this episode is your invitation to something deeper: the lifestyle of Jesus. We explore what it truly means to follow Jesus—not just in belief, but in daily practice—and how embracing an apprenticeship mindset can transform your pace, your peace, and your purpose. Key Takeaways:1. The Answer Isn’t More Time—It’s a New Way to LiveWe often think the solution to overwhelm is more hours in the day. But more time doesn’t fix a misaligned life—it just gives us more space to stay busy. True freedom comes from reordering our lives around God, not productivity. 2. You’re Not Just a Believer—You’re an ApprenticeTo follow Jesus is to apprentice under Him: Be with JesusBecome like JesusDo what He would doThis perspective shifts your posture from control to humility, from striving to learning. 3. Your Life Reflects Your LifestyleIf you’re experiencing: AnxietyBurnoutConstant stressDisconnection from God…it’s not random. Your current systems and rhythms are producing those results. “Every system is perfectly designed to get the results that it gets.”4. You Can’t Want Jesus’ Life Without Adopting His LifestyleMany of us want: His peaceHis clarityHis joy…but we’re not willing to live how He lived. Following Jesus is not compartmentalized—it’s a full-life transformation, not just Sunday behavior or spiritual moments. 5. Burnout Is a Sign You’re Living Outside of God’s DesignBurnout isn’t just exhaustion—it’s a signal. It often means you’ve made your dwelling place somewhere God never intended. The invitation? Come back home. 6. Stop Praying Your Will—Start Seeking HisA powerful personal story highlights how easy it is to pray what we want instead of surrendering to God’s will. When you approach God as an apprentice—not the one in charge—you: Release controlStay open to correctionAvoid unnecessary frustration and confusion7. Self-Awareness Is a Spiritual DisciplineSlowing down enough to: Notice your reactionsEvaluate your routinesCheck your alignment…is key to transformation. Self-awareness allows you to course correct in real time and grow in spiritual maturity. 8. Jesus Doesn’t Offer Escape—He Offers EquipmentLife is hard. That’s not changing. But instead of removing the weight, Jesus teaches us how to carry it differently: With HimAt His paceWith His peaceAn easy life isn’t promised—but an easy yoke is.Practical Application:This week, begin living like an apprentice: Pause throughout your day and ask: “What would Jesus do?”Set reminders to check in with your thoughts, reactions, and stress levelsPay attention to moments where you feel rushed, anxious, or out of alignmentSurrender areas where you’ve been forcing your willScripture Highlight:Matthew 11:28–30 “Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest…” Final Thought:If you want the life of Jesus, you have to adopt the lifestyle of Jesus. This isn’t about doing more—it’s about living differently.
