Christian Woman Business Podcast Esther Littlefield

Have you ever felt like you were drowning in the working world, with a desire to have a more balanced life, but with no way out? Do you dream of having a business that works FOR you, and not the other way around?
In today’s conversation, you’ll hear from my guest Erica Goode, and we chat all about her business, what she does as a certified public accountant, and her experience in my upLIFT Mentormind.
You might think CPAs focus only on taxes, but Erica shares how she focuses on both bookkeeping and CFO work in her clients’ businesses. Erica talks about how her work with her clients is not a once-a-year relationship, but how she meets with them on a monthly basis to talk through their business, what's happening in the past from their profitability standpoint, and more importantly, what's going to happen in the future so that they can make confident business decisions based on what she helps them to project cash flow to look like in the future.
Erica goes on to share her heart behind starting her business, and her ultimate desire to have a healthy work-life balance as she focuses on raising her 2 kids.

Have you ever wanted to be a guest on someone else’s podcast? If you’ve ever considered being on a podcast, you’ve likely written a pitch to try and introduce yourself to the podcast host. Like with anything, there is definitely a right and wrong way to go about this.
In today’s episode, you’re going to hear a conversation I shared with my friend Wren Robbins on her podcast, Don’t Wing It. We talked on her podcast about the 10 mistakes to avoid when pitching a podcast. I know that a lot of you have asked me in the past about how to pitch a podcast, or how to get on other people's podcasts, especially if you do not have a podcast yourself.
I think this conversation will really give you some insights on what not to do when pitching to be on a podcast, and in the midst of the conversation, we also give some hints and some tips on what to do instead.

Are you tired of hearing how a 6 figure income would change everything for you? It feels like so many people in the online business space are doing whatever they can to hit that idealized number, but what does it mean for you if that isn’t exactly what works best for you right now?
Over my 7+ years of building a business online, I have seen dozens of programs, courses, and masterminds that are targeted to helping you reach 6 figures, 7 figures, and beyond. Many of these programs are great. I know of some of them personally that truly do provide support, guidance, and coaching to help you reach those particular business goals.
There's nothing wrong with having a financial goal attached to a program in terms of the results that they are promising. However, I have intentionally decided NOT to have my upLIFT Mentormind be a program that is focused on helping you reach a particular revenue goal. And in episode 112, I'm going to tell you why.

Have you ever had a goal, or something you wanted to accomplish, but you just didn't know how to get there? Maybe you knew some of the things that needed to be done, but you couldn't seem to put it all together. It's like trying to do a puzzle without having the cover of the box available for you to see what the final picture looks like. You might be able to get the puzzle put together eventually, but it's a lot harder when you don't know what it's supposed to look like.
I recently experienced this when trying to get my home ready to sell. I needed help and a strategy, so I called a friend over to help me strategize and organize my home to get it prepared for the sale. Once she came and helped me the first time it got the ball rolling, and I was able to move forward with the tools and suggestions she had given me on how to tackle this huge project. I was able to then go on and continue doing a lot of the work on my own. 
And this is how it is sometimes in our businesses. Sometimes we need the support of others to help us get started on things that seem way too massive or challenging to start alone, or if we do it takes us way longer than it might have if we took advantage of the support we could have.  Therefore, episode 111 of the podcast talks about 4 problems that a faith-based mastermind might help you overcome.

Have you ever wondered about what it takes to host a retreat? Do you have the urge to plan a retreat in the future? Maybe you’ve just always been curious about what it looks like to attend a retreat.
Due to some personal things in my life along with the upLIFT Retreat I hosted in Gulf Shores, Alabama last week, you might have noticed that I took the last few weeks off from the podcast. But this week I’m back and so excited to share with you some behind-the-scenes stories and details from the upLIFT & Inspire mastermind retreat I hosted last week!
I want to bring this to you, because some of you may be curious about what it's like to host a retreat, or you might be wondering what it was like to actually be at the retreat as an attendee. So, I wanted to peel back the curtain and give you an inside peek into the process of planning and the happenings at the retreat itself.
