• Deal with discouragement from others by holding firm to your boundaries and seeking confirmation from God. Stay true to your calling despite opposition.

• Creating Content

• Draw inspiration from feedback, guests, personal experiences, and tools like ChatGPT. Be open to suggestions and responsive to your audience's needs.

• Screening Guests

• Ensure potential guests align with your mission and values. Conduct get-to-know-you calls and be prepared to edit or decline episodes that don't fit your audience.
