    157 | Faith and Business: Bridging the Growth Gap with April Morris

    Unlocking Personal and Professional Growth: Conversations with Christian Business Coach April Morris In today’s conversation, April Morris and Michele Duwe talk about what a growth gap is, how it shows up for Christian women in business, and why the real issue isn’t always “needing a better strategy.” We also dig into the difference between a rigid routine and a growth rhythm, and how surrender plays a key role in moving forward with God. Because so many Christian business owners are doing “all the right things” — planning, praying, learning, taking notes — and still feel stuck or inconsistent. This episode helps you name what’s happening without shame and gives you a faith-led way to move forward without striving and burnout. This conversation brings clarity and relief by helping you: Identify what kind of gap is actually holding you back (not just guessing) Stop assuming you’re “behind” or “broken” Shift from rigid routines that fall apart in real life to a rhythm you can return to Rebuild confidence through follow-through, not perfection Practice daily surrender so you can grow with God instead of forcing outcomes 00:00 Introduction and Personal Affirmations 00:19 Guest Introduction: April Morris 01:54 April's Journey: From Self-Doubt to Confidence 03:37 Understanding the Growth Gap 05:31 Identifying the Five Growth Gaps 08:13 Overcoming Distractions and Building Consistency 14:51 Exploring Confidence and Vision 17:45 Clarifying Your Purpose and Mission 21:37 Unmasking the Fear Behind Clarity 23:19 Embracing Growth Through Rhythm 29:19 The Role of Faith in Closing the Growth Gap 35:38 Daily Surrender and Trust in God's Plan 37:12 Becoming God's Masterpiece 40:02 Final Thoughts and Resources If this episode hit home, take April’s Growth Gap Quiz so you can identify which gap is loudest right now — and get the roadmap to start closing it: https://thegrowthquiz.com And if you enjoyed this episode, share it with a friend who’s been feeling stuck, then leave a review so more women can find the show.

    156 | From Overload to Leadership: Hiring a Content Assistant

    Implementing Content Systems: Streamlining Your Process to Reduce Overwhelm In this episode of the Content Systems for Growth podcast, host Michele Duwe addresses the common struggle of feeling unfocused and overwhelmed by scattered content creation efforts. Michele emphasizes the importance of hiring help and creating structured content systems to alleviate the burden. She discusses the initial resistance to hiring due to the perceived effort of training someone and highlights the benefits of investing time upfront to build a content system. Michele shares practical steps for capturing and organizing content processes, suggesting simple methods like recording your screen and creating checklists. By doing so, business owners can transition to leadership roles, reduce interruptions, and improve communication. Michele also encourages starting small when hiring a content assistant and offers resources like her Trello board to help listeners build their systems. She invites listeners to reach out with questions and assures them that they are not failing but growing through the process. 00:00 Introduction and Welcome 00:06 The Struggle of Scattered Efforts 00:54 The Challenge of Hiring Help 02:22 The Importance of Systems 04:20 Steps to Prepare for Hiring 06:01 Offering Solutions and Encouragement 06:54 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Michele’s Links: Link to the blog post: https://misstask.com/cold-pitching DFY Content Repurposing: https://misstask.com/content-repurposing-starter-pack FREE RESOURCE: Organic Content Creation Workflow and Content Organization https://misstask.com/content-creation-workflow Visit the website: https://misstask.com *Disclaimer: If you happen to purchase anything I recommend in this or any of my communications, it’s likely I'll receive some kind of affiliate compensation from these products that I use and love.

    155 | Visual Goal Tracking for Alignment 2026

    Mastering Visual Goal Tracking: Staying Aligned with Your Commitments Hey friend! If you’ve spent time planning, praying, and thinking through the year ahead—but you’re wondering how to actually stay aligned once real life starts moving again—this episode is for you. In today’s conversation, we’re talking about visually tracking your goals, not as a productivity trick or another system to manage, but as a way to stay grounded, focused, and honest with yourself as the year unfolds. This episode is especially helpful if you’ve ever set goals with the best intentions, only to feel scattered, distracted, or quietly off-course a few weeks later. I walk you through why visibility matters more than motivation, how visual goal tracking helps you notice fear, perfectionism, or overcommitment sooner, and why keeping your goals in your line of sight can bring clarity without pressure. You’ll hear simple ways to do this—both physically and digitally—without creating another system you won’t use. I also share how visual goal tracking has shaped my own 2026 planning and strategy, including intentional shifts I’m making in my business and content. This episode is about permission—permission to adjust, to simplify, and to choose alignment over volume as you step into the new year. If you’re craving clarity, peace, and a steadier way to follow through on what you’ve already said yes to, I pray this episode blesses you. Episode Highlights [00:00] Why December 31 is the perfect pause point for alignment [00:00:29] The question that reveals whether your goals are actually visible [00:00:59] Why distraction isn’t a discipline problem—it’s a visibility problem [00:01:49] How visual goal tracking helps you notice fear, perfectionism, and drift [00:02:00] The chalkboard method and why physical visibility still works [00:02:40] Why letting your family see your goals matters more than you think [00:03:14] Using Notion as a simple home base for visual alignment [00:04:14] How visual goal tracking shaped my 2026 planning and strategy [00:05:09] Why I’m shifting the podcast to two episodes per month [00:05:52] Choosing alignment over volume in this season [00:06:00] Reframing messy, imperfect action as clarity instead of pressure [00:06:54] Reflection questions to help you enter the new year with intention If this episode encouraged you, I’d be so grateful if you’d take a minute to share it with a business friend, subscribe to the podcast, and leave a review. Your reviews truly help this show reach more women who want to build their businesses with clarity and intention. And if you’re realizing that staying consistent doesn’t mean doing everything yourself, I’d love to support you. You can learn more about my services or reach out with questions anytime over at misstask.com. Friend, you don’t need more willpower. You need clarity—and the courage to stay aligned with what you’ve already said yes to. I appreciate you so much, and I’ll see you in the next episode.

    154 | Mindful Planning: Using Vision Boards to Shape Your Future

    Hey friend! If planning your year has started to feel heavy or overly tactical, today’s episode is going to feel like a breath of fresh air. In this episode, I’m walking you through how to use a digital vision board as part of your mindful planning process—not as a trendy exercise, but as a meaningful tool to keep your heart aligned, your mind focused, and your energy anchored in what God is calling you toward this year. This conversation is especially for you if you’ve already done the work of planning your year and your quarter, but you still find yourself losing motivation, feeling distracted, or forgetting why you’re doing the work in the first place. A digital vision board gives you a visual anchor—something encouraging to return to when life gets loud or when your to-do list starts to take over. Inside the episode, I share what a digital vision board actually is (and what it’s not), why it supports consistency and focus, and the four simple elements I recommend including—your word or theme for the year, visuals that reflect your values, the goals you’re working toward, and scripture or truth to keep you grounded. I also keep the tech side very simple and share easy options for creating your board without overwhelm. This episode helps solve the problem so many women face after planning: staying connected to their vision long after the excitement of planning fades. Instead of relying on motivation or willpower, a vision board helps you see what you’re building and gently pulls you back into alignment when you drift. If you’ve been craving clarity, encouragement, and a simpler way to stay focused on what matters most, this one is for you. I pray this episode blesses you and reminds you that you are allowed to dream, visualize, and make it simple. Calls to action: Head to the blog to read more about creating a digital vision board and see everything laid out step by step If this episode encouraged you, I’d be so grateful if you left a five-star review and shared it with a friend who’s planning her year too Friend, you’re creating a life and business one intentional yes at a time—and this is just one more tool to support that journey. 00:00 Introduction and Episode Overview 00:43 The Power of a Digital Vision Board 01:04 Creating Your Digital Vision Board 02:28 Four Key Categories for Your Vision Board 04:19 Tech Tools for Your Vision Board 05:02 Staying Focused and Consistent 05:37 Repurposing Services and Giveaway 06:34 Final Thoughts and Encouragement 06:54 Closing Remarks and Call to Action Michele’s Links: Link to the blog post: https://misstask.com/digital-vision-board-online/ DFY Content Repurposing: https://misstask.com/content-repurposing-starter-pack FREE RESOURCE: Organic Content Creation Workflow and Content Organization https://misstask.com/content-creation-workflow Visit the website: https://misstask.com *Disclaimer: If you happen to purchase anything I recommend in this or any of my communications, it’s likely I'll receive some kind of affiliate compensation from these products that I use and love.

    153 | Transform Your Business with the Mindful Yes Mindset

    Protecting Your Yes: How to Avoid Burnout and Focus on What Matters Hey friend! If you’ve ever sat down to plan your quarter or your year and felt that heaviness rise in your chest—the “how on earth am I supposed to do all of this” feeling—this episode is going to feel like a deep breath. Today we’re talking about the one thing that protects all that planning work you just did: learning to give a mindful yes instead of a guilty yes. Inside this episode, I walk you through the real reason you feel stretched thin and why the yes-to-everything mindset that built your business won’t take you any farther. You’ll learn the three clarifying questions to ask before you agree to anything, plus the simple cues your body gives you to help you know whether something is aligned with your calling or driven by guilt and fear. These prompts will help you discern what truly deserves your time, and what needs to be a loving no so you can show up fully for what matters most—your family, your clients, and the work God has asked you to do. If you’ve been feeling pulled in too many directions, overwhelmed by commitments, or frustrated that you never have enough time for the tasks that bring growth and peace into your business, you’re going to feel lighter after this conversation. This mindset shift gives you permission to create margin, protect your energy, and move forward without burnout. And here’s the best part—it also helps you recognize the tasks you no longer need to carry on your own. For most coaches I work with, content is the first thing that needs to come off their plate so they can focus on their calling. When you know what gets your yes, it becomes so much easier to let go of the things that don’t. I pray this episode brings clarity, confidence, and a whole lot of peace as you head into your next season. 00:00 Welcome and Introduction 00:30 The Importance of Protecting Your Plan 01:21 Overcoming the Yes to Everything Mindset 01:50 Delegating Tasks to Your Team 03:44 Evaluating Your Yes and No Decisions 05:19 Three Questions to Guide Your Decisions 07:56 Listening to Your Body's Cues 09:32 Final Thoughts and Encouragement 10:40 Content Creation Services and Closing Remarks Michele’s Links: Link to the blog post: https://misstask.com/mindful-yes/ DFY Content Repurposing: https://misstask.com/content-repurposing-starter-pack FREE RESOURCE: Organic Content Creation Workflow and Content Organization https://misstask.com/content-creation-workflow Visit the website: https://misstask.com *Disclaimer: If you happen to purchase anything I recommend in this or any of my communications, it’s likely I'll receive some kind of affiliate compensation from these products that I use and love.

    150 | Give Yourself a Pat on the Back: Empower Your Business with Confidence

    Hey friend! If you’ve been hard on yourself lately or brushing past the things God has helped you accomplish, this episode is going to feel like a deep breath. Today we’re talking about something most women—especially Christian business owners—struggle with: giving yourself a simple pat on the back. Inside this conversation, I walk you through why we tend to judge our efforts so harshly, how the stories we tell ourselves keep us stuck, and what it actually looks like to acknowledge your own growth with gratitude instead of guilt. You’ll hear a practical example from one of my clients who was hiding her gifts out of fear, and why celebrating even the smallest step forward is an act of courage and stewardship. Now, this is important: you’re going to be reminded that the confidence you’re looking for doesn’t come from approval, applause, or someone else validating you. It comes from partnering with God. He’s not asking you to be perfect—He’s asking you to be faithful. And sometimes faithfulness looks like pausing to say, “Thank You, Lord, for helping me show up today,” rather than immediately listing all the things you think you should’ve done better. My hope is that you walk away from this episode feeling seen, encouraged, and more grounded in who God created you to be. If you’re juggling a lot… if you’ve taken even one step forward this week… if you’ve done the hard thing even while afraid—give yourself a pat on the back. You deserve it. And it matters. If this episode speaks to you, share it with a friend who needs the reminder too. Your support helps this message reach more Christian women building businesses with purpose. And if you’d like to work together on your content systems or done-for-you repurposing, you’ll find everything you need below.
