    From Layoff To Light: How Kelly Schuknecht Built a Thought Leadership Business

    Send a text The pink slip arrived, HR joined the call, and everything familiar vanished. What happened next is a masterclass in clarity, courage, and building a business that serves from the inside out.  We sit down with marketer and former publishing exec Kelly Schuknecht, who transformed a layoff into a thriving thought leadership agency that books stages, lands podcast appearances, grows LinkedIn authority, and turns founder expertise into clients. Within six months, she replaced her corporate income and hired a team—because the offer was specific, the audience was hungry, and the execution was practical. We dig into what most entrepreneurs secretly wrestle with: the war between ego and soul. Kelly and Sylvia compare notes on trusting the nudge, letting go of external validation, and choosing language that moves you forward when fear shouts the loudest. You’ll hear how to identify your Authority X Factor—the blend of skills and experience you take for granted—and build a platform around it without shouting.  If you’ve been applying for “safe” roles while your purpose tugs at your sleeve, this conversation gives you a grounded path: niche your offer to the problem you solve best, productize visibility with simple systems, and guard your mind so your best work isn’t throttled by doubt.  If this resonates, follow the show, leave a review to support our work, and share this episode with a friend who needs a push toward their calling.

    When Obedience Opens Doors You Cannot See with The Biblically Speaking Podcast Host Cassian Bellino

    Send a text Ever felt like church gave you feelings but not footing?  We sat down with host and seeker-turned-builder, Cassian Bellino, to unpack how a lifelong Christian who still felt lost found a third way: a scholar-driven, heart-forward podcast that makes Scripture make sense.  Cassian shares the honest prayer that changed everything—“I want to want You”—and the surprising chain of providence that followed: a pastor on a plane, a tour group full of academics, a bold ask to a renowned scientist, and a growing roster of theologians and researchers eager to serve curious minds. A powerful thread running through her story is fasting and surrender. What began as a health practice became a spiritual breakthrough—72 hours that replaced cravings with worship, confusion with clarity, and striving with trust. We talk practical rhythms too: caring for the body, steadying emotions, and creating space so God’s promptings land. If you’ve wrestled with doubt, felt behind, or thought you had to earn closeness with God, this is a roadmap: pray honestly, take the next right step, and let Him handle the how. If you’re a PhD or scholar with a gift for clear teaching, Cassian wants to hear from you: bibspeak.com. And if you’re seeking purpose, consider this your nudge: say yes to the small obedience in front of you.  Subscribe, share this with a friend who loves both Scripture and science, and leave a review to help others find the show. Your next step may be the door someone else is praying will open.

    Trading Control for Surrender & Empty Achievement for Aligned Purpose with Entrepreneur Jamaul Ford

    Send a text What if your biggest wins hid your deepest drift?  We sit down with entrepreneur and coach Jamaul Ford to unpack how scaling businesses—and serving everyone else first—cost him his identity, his marriage, and his connection to his own body.  Jamaul opens up about the moment he realized he’d been living on borrowed goals and “nice guy” patterns that masked a fear of vulnerability. Therapy, prayer, and a hard look at covert contracts helped him stop caretaking and start caring—without resentment. He describes the shock of mind-body detachment during divorce and how grounding practices, from feeling the wind to touching grass, rebuilt his ability to sense and name emotions. We talk through the power of journaling, honoring grief, and celebrating milestones so you don’t outrun your own life. He reshaped his schedule to serve from overflow, not exhaustion, and created Focus Forward, a program that weaves mindfulness, movement, and business frameworks to align health, wealth, and relationships. Along the way, we explore redefining masculinity to include feeling and asking for help, setting new goals after surpassing old ones, and using consistency as your quiet superpower. If you’ve ever felt wildly successful yet strangely empty, this conversation offers both language and tools for the turn: presence over performance, boundaries over burnout, and small, faithful steps over grand gestures.  Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs it, and leave a review to tell us the one habit you’ll practice tomorrow. Your purpose gets clearer every time you show up.

    Choosing Purpose Over Perks: A Journey From Collapse To Calling with Rachael Edmondson-Clarke

    Send a text What if your body staged an intervention to save your life? That’s where Rachael’s story begins—on the floor of a glass-walled office—an unmistakable signal that the grind had swallowed the person.  We walk through the fear, the bruised ego, and the radical choice to trade status for alignment, not as a highlight reel but as a faithful record of how a whisper can outvote the loudest world. Rachael discusses the difference between ego pressure and soul-led purpose, and how to bridge the two with real steps: training in a field that actually nourishes you, taking on part-time clients while still employed, and asking braver questions with mentors.  From there, we dig into mind hygiene—standing as a “bouncer” at the door of your thoughts, countering fear-laced comments with intentional inputs, and curating your digital environment. We explore purpose as a living contract that evolves, anchored in presence, service, and trust.  If you’re at a crossroads, you’ll leave with a humane toolkit: one bold boundary, one daily pause, and one honest conversation to start your pivot now. If this resonated, follow and subscribe, share it with a friend who needs courage today, and leave a review to help more people find the show. Your story might be the nudge someone else is waiting for.

    The Courage To Leave, The Grace To Heal, The Words To Live By with Poet Nadine Ellis

    Send a text What if the first step out of fear isn’t a leap, but a line? We welcome Australian poet Nadine Ellis, whose new book The Grey Between distills thirty years of lived experience into poems that hold trauma, courage, motherhood, neurodivergence, and renewal in equal measure.  Nadine shares how undiagnosed autism and dyslexia shaped her early years—feeling out of place, learning English at school, and struggling to be heard inside a strict European household marked by intergenerational trauma. Writing became her lifeline as an abusive marriage unraveled. With three small children and no financial freedom, she chose a path few see: back to school, toward independence, and into a new model of strength for her family. This hour offers both compass and company. You’ll hear practical ways to begin healing—naming what’s real, allowing grief to work, finding small daily joys, and giving yourself permission to choose a safer, kinder life.  If you feel led, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a review to help more listeners find their way here. Your story might be the line someone else needs today.

    Why Daughters Carry The Invisible Load of Caring for Aging Parents with Author Dr. Allison Alford

    Send a text Ever feel like the family runs on your unseen effort?  We dive into the real work of “daughtering” with Dr. Allison Alford, a family communication expert whose upcoming book, Good Daughtering: The Work You’ve Always Done, The Credit You’ve Never Gotten, And How To Finally Feel Like Enough, names what so many women live every day. Together, we explore why daughters become the quiet architects of connection, how that role stretches from our twenties through our fifties, and what it takes to make the load visible, shared, and sustainable. Allison breaks down the invisible labor—mental load, emotional triage, calendar wrangling, and financial planning—that keeps parents and siblings coordinated.  Sylvia shares raw stories from early adulthood, cultural expectations, and therapy work that helped separate love from over-responsibility.  Along the way, we offer practical tools to inventory your tasks, calibrate how much you give, and ask clearly for recognition and help from parents and siblings. We also explore how faith and purpose can ground you when external validation is scarce.  If you’ve ever handled the group text, booked the flights, soothed the tension, and paid the deposit—and still felt invisible—this conversation gives you clarity and a path to feeling like enough.  If this resonated, subscribe, share with a sister or friend, and leave a review to help more daughters find these tools. Tell us: what’s one invisible task you’re ready to make seen? To connect with Dr. Alford, follow her on Instagram @daughtering101 or preorder her book here: Pre-order my book, Good Daughtering, out February 2026!

    From Shock To Self-Leadership: Elizabeth Jane On Boundaries, Healing, And Joy

    Send a text What do you do when the life you built for 25 years disappears overnight? We sit down with Elizabeth Jane, who turned the shock of a sudden divorce into a blueprint for healing, self-leadership, and lasting joy. Her story moves from raw grief to grounded wisdom, and she shares the simple tools that made the difference: two minutes of deep belly breathing to calm the nervous system, a daily joy practice to anchor presence, and her ABC of Me—acknowledge what you feel, set a boundary, and communicate with clarity. We dig into the patterns that keep pain on repeat—people pleasing, achievement as avoidance, and drama loops that drain your energy. Elizabeth shows how to stop enabling, have empowered conversations without aggression, and rebuild from the inside out so your outer world reflects your inner self-respect. We talk vibration in practical terms: how thoughts shape state, how presence interrupts fear’s fantasy future, and why tiny choices create compounding momentum. If you’re ready to move from survival to stewardship of your life, this episode offers clear steps, gentle courage, and real hope. You’ll learn how to be the lighthouse instead of the tugboat: stand, shine, and guide by alignment rather than exhaustion. Listen, take a breath, try one boundary, and start a joy practice today.

    How Decoding Doubt Turned Ambition Into Alignment with Mbo'A Pascal

    Send a text What if your confidence isn’t something you find, but something you build—one obedient step at a time?  Mbo'A joins us to share how a bold move to Ukraine shattered old ambitions and rebuilt them on a stronger foundation: God first, identity secure, and actions aligned with calling. We trace the shift from chasing status to serving purpose, and why the real question isn’t “Can I get there?” but “Who am I becoming on the way?” We get practical without losing the soul. Pascal lays out his confidence code—confidence lives in action—and shows how to discover your lane by focusing on what comes easy to you that others find hard. We dig into training your mind with Scripture, catching doubtful thoughts before they steer your day, and building habits that hold when life shakes. We also explore the power of tools like the DISC assessment and spiritual gifts to reveal wiring, clarify roles, and stop fighting yourself. When your temperament and your anointing line up, decisions get lighter and momentum grows. If you’re tired of borrowed ambitions and ready to decode doubt, this conversation will give you language, tools, and courage to move. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a review so more people can step into a purpose that lasts.
