Welcome to the Go-to Podcast for Christian Midlife Women Solopreneurs who are ready to go from Random BUSYNESS to Faithful FRUITFULNESS.

Here you'll find Time Management Tips using Time Blocking and Productivity Planning to create success in your business along with work-life balance so you can be more present in this season… and in light of eternity!

You're juggling A LOT as an Over 40 Woman in Midlife- from supporting launching kids to aging parents to everything in between like...

* Growing your Faith-walk * Nurturing your Marriage * Building your Friendships * Serving in your Business * Stewarding your Resources * Maintaining your Wellness * Developing your Passions * Keeping your Home...

Ever feel like there's never enough TIME (or of YOU) to fit it all in?

Do you wish you could stop…
> Wasting precious time on less important things that take you away from your priorities?
> Questioning what matters most and wavering in indecision or worry beyond the present?
> Saying YES to demands or requests on your time when you’re already filled to capacity?
> Being half-present with the people around you while thinking about all you should do?

Good…cuz that’s NOT the Life + Business He intends for you.

There’s a way to simplify and balance midlife + business so you can serve the Lord, nurture your family, make a difference…AND take care of yourself too!

Hey, I’m Lissa, Christian Time Management Coach, Priorities Protector and Recovering Should-Do Girl. I’ve been teaching, leading and coaching Christian women for over 25 years.

Once upon a time, my life was too busy– I was showing up on the outside, but not fully present inside. And I was building a business, but it was taking me away from who + what mattered.

I was BUSY, but I wasn't FRUITFUL.

Something had to change. I asked the Lord where He wanted me to focus… and He led me to manage my time with FAITH at the center.

Wanna learn how I make time for…spending quiet time with God, enjoying date night with my hubby, pouring into friendships, serving through my business, stewarding my resources, organizing my home, pursuing my passions– and actually fit in SELF-CARE?

Wanna see the exact systems I use to create my WITH-God Business Vision and set intentional goals with the right kind of accountability to actually follow through on?

On this podcast I’ll teach you how to be confident, consistent and fully connected in the 8 key areas of your life + business by:

> Redefining your God-given life + business plan to guide where you focus your time & attention.
> Implementing a simple time management system to create regular rhythms and routines.
> Overcoming the distractions that keep you from being effective and intentional.

I can’t wait to help you go from BUSYNESS to FRUITFULNESS and discover you really do have all the time you need for what you're called to.

Grab something to sip, open up your heart & calendar…I’m about to show you how to make the best use of your time… with God at the center of it all.
Let’s get started.

    238 | Feeling Off? Balancing Life with 3 Steps to Renew Your Attention

    238 | Feeling Off? Balancing Life with 3 Steps to Renew Your Attention

    Hey C.E.O.
    Feeling a little off or a lot out of balance?
    Just wanna say it can happen to the best of us.  
    In fact, it happened to ME in the last few weeks and I’m a time management coach who helps women build work-life balance….but I WASN'T.
    You see, after a few months of being in head-down, blinders-on, get-er-done mode, I wasn’t paying attention to what needed my attention until I crashed…
    I got TOO focused on the next thing in front of me to do and got OUT-of-BALANCE.
    It affected every area of my life- my faith-walk, my marriage, my friendships, my business, my stewardship, my wellness, my passions, my dwelling…and ultimately my joy. 
    Let me just say, I wasn’t very present to God, to others or myself…and it showed (just ask my hubby)
    But unlike back-in-the-day when I’d just ignore feeling off and push on, this time I decided to listen to what I knew God was telling me to do-
    Pay attention to what I’ve called you to be present to.
    Pausing to practice what I preach has made all the difference in what I’m believing, how I’m feeling and where I’m going as I step into this new week…WITH-God.
    Although feeling this OFF and OUT of BALANCE is no longer my norm, I know it is for so many of you who are juggling all the things in midlife + biz…and I want you to know I know how it feels.
    But it DOESN’T have to stay that way.
    So this let’s-push-pause episode is for me (and for YOU)-
    the woman who’s a little off or a lot out of balance…and finally ready to admit she’s feeling it and do something about it!
    Together let’s follow His direction to REST, REFLECT & RESET our attention.
    I pray this blesses, challenges and moves you to action!

    L.Y.L.A.S. (Love Ya Like A Sis)

    237 | From People-Pleasing BUSYNESS to Kingdom-Aligned BUSINESS: Chesney's REDEEMED Midlife CEO Success Story

    237 | From People-Pleasing BUSYNESS to Kingdom-Aligned BUSINESS: Chesney's REDEEMED Midlife CEO Success Story

    Hey C.E.O.-
    Ever had a WAKEUP CALL in life that made you RETHINK your time…where it went and the return (or lack thereof) on how you spent it? As busy Christian women, constantly pulled in a million directions, time feels like it flies…
    And it’s easy to look back and feel REGRET. 
    As a result of a big life change in midlife, Chesney of Health, Hope & Heaven Coaching, found herself facing a lot of regret around where her time went and what she had missed out on….and she constantly felt the GUILT TUG-of-WAR. 
    GUILT when she was with her family that she wasn’t working on her business…and GUILT when working on her business that she wasn’t with her family. 
    Meanwhile Chesney had been told by the voices around her to fit her biz into all the nooks and crannies of her day, but realized having NO WHITE SPACE was catapulting her towards BURNOUT and missing out on connecting with those she loved… and even MORE REGRET when she wasn’t seeing success in her business.
    She started to believe the lie I AM NOT ENOUGH.

    But when Chesney joined the REDEEMED Midlife CEO, things started shifting from the inside out.  She laid down the lies of the enemy that were keeping her stuck and started to listen to the one voice that mattered most…HIS. 
    Her PEOPLE-PLEASING actions were replaced by KINGDOM-ALIGNED intentions. 
    And when unexpected changes happened in her previous business, she had the REDEEMED Midlife CEO biblical mindset, time management and biz growth strategies to say, “Ok God…What are we doing next?” 
    He not only RECREATED her heart, but also how she was called to serve with her business. 

    You’re gonna love Chesney’s story of how admitting she had holes in her boat, and connecting with the right system + support to plug them and point her in the right direction has her moving where God is leading in this next season of life + biz.

    Why am I sharing Chesney’s story with you today? 
    Because you may be cramming every minute of the day chasing success, but only finding that you’re not measuring up to what you or others said you should be….and be on the fast-track to burnout.
    But when you seek to hear “well done” from the RIGHT VOICE, He shows you that He can do big things in and through you.

    So if YOU don’t want to wait for a WAKEUP CALL to leave you feeling regret around where your time is invested and what it’s producing, I invite you to plant a seed of faith like Chesney and submit your application to the REDEEMED Midlife CEO Program.  

    And when you do that by tomorrow, April 19th, you’ll not only save $497 but get to jump in with committed CEOs like Chesney (and me) where we’ll walk through the challenges we face around our time in life + biz together…and even better, WITH God.

    We pray this blesses, challenges and moves you to action!

    236| From Hamster-Wheel BUSYNESS to Faith-Focused BUSINESS: Danielle's REDEEMED Midlife CEO Success Story

    236| From Hamster-Wheel BUSYNESS to Faith-Focused BUSINESS: Danielle's REDEEMED Midlife CEO Success Story

    Hey C.E.O.-
    Feel like you're constantly on the hamster wheel, going in circles, carrying the responsibility of running a BIZ on top of ALL the other roles you fill...but NOT feeling successful at ANY of them? 
    You’re not alone. 
    Out of desperation for something to change, Danielle Foxx of 4F Accounting Associates, tried it ALL- the planners, the programs, the I-just-need-to-get-more-organized plans...but NOTHING seemed to work. 
    It all just felt like ONE MORE TO-DO and all depended on HER doing more. 
    That is until she found REDEEM Her Time and started to center everything she did in Life + Biz around her faith... and stopped doing it all on her own.

    She desperately wanted to join the REDEEMED Midlife CEO program, but as a numbers girl, couldn’t see how it was financially possible with her current level of business income. 
    So Danielle decided to set aside time to pray and trust Him to provide. And wouldn’t you know... He answered with more than she expected, sooner than she expected!
    Not only did He give her a bigger vision for her business to bring her faith into her accounting services for solopreneurs, He also brought more clients than she was praying for, which made investing in her growth possible.  

    Now as part of the REDEEMED Midlife CEO, Danielle is first growing her mindset + belief with timeless BIBLICAL TRUTHS, then implementing the practical TIME MANAGEMENT TOOLS + BIZ GROWTH STRATEGIES inside the program to help her focus time on her growth.   
    And best of all she’s building a life + biz WITH-God... and finally experiencing REST.  

    You’re gonna love Danielle’s story of how a rightly ordered HEART leads to a rightly ordered LIFE + BIZ that's no longer defined by random busyness, but producing faithful fruitfulness. 

    Why am I sharing Danielle’s story with you today? 
    Because YOU might be on that hamster wheel too, searching for a solution that will finally shift things in both YOUR heart + calendar.  And right now YOU may think there’s NO WAY you can make it work to invest in your growth too …
    But when you trust HIS leading and plant seeds of faith, you get to see how HE shows up even bigger than you had imagined!

    If you want to stop spinning your wheels on your own I invite you to take your next step of faith and submit your application to the REDEEMED Midlife CEO Program. 
    When you apply by 4/19 you’ll not only SAVE $497, but even better get to learn and grow alongside amazing CEOs like Danielle who are committed to growing a WITH-God Life + Biz too. Can't wait for YOU to join us.

    We pray this blesses, challenges and moves you to action!

    235 | Find CONNECTION to Keep from Drifting Back to Should Do's in Your Business

    BONUS: CEOs DECLUTTER SHOULD-DOs Workshop Series
    Hey C.E.O.-
    Welcome to the BONUS SESSION of the CEOs DECLUTTER SHOULD-DO’s Workshop Series where we’re asking the question... WHAT NOW?
    But that’s where we run into a problem…often we leave a workshop like this filled up with CONFIDENCE, CLARITY & CONSISTENCY… 
    but over time we start hearing all the noise again…
    and it’s easy for our attention + intention to fade and soon find we’ve DRIFTED back to listening to all those voices and adding SHOULD-DO’s back on our list.
    When you’re on your own, it’s easy to get DISTRACTED.
    And when we get distracted we start going in circles of indecision again leading to Untrue Belief #4…I DON’T KNOW ENOUGH.  I DON’T KNOW WHICH WAY TO TURN.
    Do you see how that naturally flows from I AM NOT ENOUGH, I’M NOT DOING ENOUGH, I DON’T HAVE ENOUGH? When you focus on the not enough, you’re always searching for a way to fill the gap…often in all the wrong places

    But what if you had a voice behind you saying, “this is the way, walk in it”?
    Someone directing where you SHOULD GO to build your business?

    Today we’re gonna stop LOOKING, LISTENING, TRUSTING and FOLLOWING all the other voices and return to Him to find all that we need in life + biz.
    And we’re NOT gonna do it alone…cuz CEOs Don’t do it ALONE.

    Grab your workbook at redeemhertime.com/declutter so you can listen to the right voices and never again stand at a crossroads and say, I DON’T KNOW ENOUGH.
    And come join the conversation inside the REDEEM Her Time Community where committed C.E.O.s implement by taking action on what they learn (and grab SURPRISE BONSES)!

    I pray this blesses, challenges and moves you to action!

    DAY 3: CEOs DECLUTTER SHOULD-DOs Workshop Series
    Hey C.E.O.-
    Welcome to DAY 3 of the CEOs DECLUTTER SHOULD-DO series where now that we’ve shifted our belief around WHO we are and WHAT we’re called to in Biz…it’s time to start DOING. 
    But that’s where we run into a problem…
    we often know WHAT we should do, but do we do it with FOCUS + CONSISTENCY?
    Or do we spend most of our time chasing all the SHOULD-DOs that keep popping up and demanding or distracting our time? 

    Speaking of which, what are you thinking about your TIME lately…
    Is it something like…
    I have all the time I need for everything I’m called to.

    Or is it more like…
    If I had time
    When I have time
    Who has time
    There’s never leftover time
    I can’t seem to find the time…

    If you’re like most busy Christian women juggling all the should-do’s in Midlife + Biz, you probably feel like there’s never enough…then spend your days chasing the clock (or SHOULD-DO list) hoping to get it all in….but you never do, dropping in bed once again frustrated and exhausted, right? 
    Our tendency to try to control it comes from Untrue Belief #3…I DON’T HAVE ENOUGH TIME.
    Do you see how that naturally flows from I AM NOT ENOUGH and I’M NOT DOING ENOUGH? When you focus on the lack, nothing will ever be enough, including your time.

    But each day God graciously + generously lays 24 hours in front of you…. do you trust He knows what you need? It is our DAILY BREAD.
    Today we’re gonna stop CHASING TIME as a limited resource to control for our own purposes (and complaining about how much we don’t have) and start RECEIVING TIME as an abundant gift to steward for His eternal purpose (and give thanks for what He’s given)

    Grab your workbook at redeemhertime.com/declutter so you can put your time where it matters and never again say, I DON’T HAVE ENOUGH TIME.
    And come join the conversation inside the REDEEM Her Time Community where committed C.E.O.s implement by taking action on what they learn (and grab SURPRISE BONSES)!

    I pray this blesses, challenges and moves you to action!

    233 | Gain CLARITY on What You Do (and DON'T Do) as the CEO of your Business

    DAY 2: CEOs DECLUTTER SHOULD-DOs Workshop Series
    Hey C.E.O.-
    Welcome back to DAY 2 of the series where instead of adding (or allowing) more SHOULD-DOs to clutter up our calendars & to-do lists, we’re taking time to honestly look at what tasks are filling our time and discerning what we SHOULD DO as a C.E.O…and what we shouldn’t!
    CLARITY around WHAT to do starts with CONFIDENCE in WHO you are and what you’re called to.
    So how do you feel about WHAT has been getting your TIME lately? 
    Is it something like…
    I'm crystal clear on what tasks get my YES to produce fruit in my life + biz and have no problem saying NO to what will distract or detour my time.
    Or is it more like…
    I know I say yes to too many things.
    I dread saying yes, but powerless to say no.
    I’m a little overcommitted and a lot overwhelmed.
    I’m drowning in the regret of too many commitments.
    I hope there’s more to life than my to-do list.
    If you’re like most busy Christian women juggling all the should-do’s in Midlife + Biz, you’re probably saying YES to too many things…and then realizing how much time, energy and resources they’re actually costing you, right?
    Our tendency to say YES to too much stems from the untrue belief…I’M NOT DOING ENOUGH. 
    Do you see how that naturally flows from the untrue belief from DAY 1…I AM NOT ENOUGH? As if by saying yes (again) I will finally find fulfillment, satisfaction or success?
    But God has NOT called us to do it all…only what HE has called us to.

    Let’s push pause on all your DOING- and start deleting, delegating and delaying (with intention) so you can give more time to what’s delighting.
    Grab your workbook at redeemhertime.com/declutter so you can put your time where it matters and never again say, I’M NOT DOING ENOUGH.
    And come join the conversation inside the REDEEM Her Time Community where committed C.E.O.s implement by taking action on what they learn!  

    I pray this blesses, challenges and moves you to action!

Inspiring and Insightful

I enjoy listening to the Redeem Her Time Podcast. Lissa shares inspiring and insightful knowledge on how to manage our time and be a good steward of the time that God has given us and getting to root of the issue when it comes to feeling like you don't have enough time or constantly being in a state of busyness.

Each episode is encouraging and educational and helps me to have practical steps to redeem my time and gives Biblical principles that support each message!

barbellsandbaking ,

Today’s episode is exactly what I needed to hear!

I usually try to listen to the podcast when I get a chance. This morning I threw my hands up to God and said “I’m done! I can’t do this anymore! I give it over to you!”…the next thing I know I find this podcast episode and it’s called “Putting God first in your business”.🥹 Thank you so much for this wonderful podcast and encouragement!

PhaseFan ,

Lissa fills my cup!

God faithfully uses Lissa’s podcasts to fill my cup as I learn how to make sure I’m filled before I pour out onto others in my life and biz! Each one hits my heart in the perfect timing leaving me refreshed, encouraged, and equipped for what God has called me to each day!
