140: Michelle Schaeffer and One Answered Prayer Halfway There
-
- Christianity
Michelle Shaeffer is an award-winning blogger, podcast host, international speaker, author, marketing consultant and human psychology junkie. She grew up a missionary kid in rural Alaska, became a pastor’s wife, and then the picture-perfect life fell apart…and along the way discovered that even when we walk away from God, He never gives up on us. Michelle inspires us to keep looking for God in unexpected places because you never know how he will answer your prayers.
Listen to Michelle’s story above or in your favorite podcast app!
Stories Michelle shared:
How she helps people start businesses that align with their values
Growing up in very rural Alaska
How she learned to see the world from other perspectives
Getting married at 18 and moving to West Virginia and the struggles they had early on
The moment her business was born in a prayer
The UPS delivery she didn’t expect
The bubbles that proved God’s love to her
Asking about the very nature of God
Discovering herself while starting her business
Starting her podcast to help people do what they care about
Great quotes from Michelle:
The biggest thing I was looking for was who accepted you.
There are people out there like you who want to do business differently.
The fact that somebody I had never met…had listened to God to that degree of preciseness to know not only what I needed but what I wanted, that was the moment that I went, okay, God must be real, he must love me, and there must be more than what I’ve been taught.
When we’re willing to open up and share our stories, other people look at it and go “If you made it through then so can I.”
I’m glad people didn’t give up on me.
