    176. Healing Daddy Issues, Kingdom Entrepreneurship & Answering God's Call

    In this episode, Rev. Jocelyn welcomes Amanda Shivers, hospitality consultant, author, and founder of the Daddy Issues community. Amanda shares how God led her from a successful corporate career into Kingdom entrepreneurship and how her own journey through divorce became the foundation for a ministry that helps women find emotional healing and hope in Christ. Together, they discuss obedience, faith, entrepreneurship, and the importance of building a deeper relationship with our Heavenly Father. In this episode, you'll learn: How God can use life's most painful seasons to create a ministry that brings healing to others. Why obedience often comes before clarity when stepping into your God-given calling. The realities of Kingdom entrepreneurship and how faith sustains you through the journey. How understanding your identity as God's daughter leads to emotional healing and healthier relationships. Why authentic Christian community is essential during seasons of transition, heartbreak, and growth. How trusting the Holy Spirit can help you overcome fear and walk confidently in your purpose. God often transforms our greatest pain into our greatest purpose. As Amanda's story reminds us, answering God's call doesn't require having every step planned—it requires trusting Him, walking in obedience, and allowing Him to use your testimony to bring hope and healing to others."God doesn't require perfection—He requires obedience.

    174. She Got Laid Off… Then God Changed Everything

    What happens when God gives you a business idea that does not make sense at first? In this inspiring episode of Rev. Jocelyn Talks, Rev. Jocelyn sits down with Johane Herard, founder of The Glory Candle, to talk about her powerful journey from being laid off, struggling financially, and starting a candle business in her kitchen — to building a faith-led product business that now includes retail sales, corporate gifting, wholesale, white labeling, and coaching others how to start their own candle business. Joanne shares how a 14-day fast led her to hear God’s direction, why she kept going through humble beginnings, what she learned from farmers markets, how God opened the door to corporate gifting, and why starting before everything is perfect can be the key to stepping into your assignment. This conversation is for the woman of faith who feels called to build a kingdom business, launch a product, serve her community, or trust God with an idea that feels bigger than her current resources. In this episode, you’ll hear: — How Joanne started The Glory Candle from scratch — Why your friends and family may not be your ideal customers — How farmers markets helped her build confidence and sales skills — How corporate gifting became a major revenue stream — Why one business can have multiple income streams — How Joanne now teaches others, including the Haitian community, to build candle businesses — Why faith, obedience, and action matter when God gives you a vision About Johane Herard: Johane Herard is a purpose-driven entrepreneur and the founder of The Glory Candle. What started as a simple candle-making idea grew into a product line that serves families with clean, non-toxic candle options while also supporting Kingdom work beyond the business itself. If you have been waiting for everything to be perfect before starting, this episode will encourage you to start where you are, use what you have, and trust God with the next step. Listen now and be encouraged to keep your faith, build with obedience, and take action on the vision God placed in your heart.
