    Ep: (155) What Christian Women Don't Talk About When It Comes to Putting Yourself Out There

    There’s a side of “putting yourself out there” that Christian women rarely talk about — and that’s what we’re naming in today’s episode.   In this conversation, I’m talking about the quiet emotional and spiritual weight that comes with visibility: the hesitation, the self-monitoring, the fear of getting it wrong, and the pressure to represent God well while also being fully human. If you’ve ever felt the tension between obedience and exposure, calling and caution, this episode will feel familiar.   We explore why visibility isn’t just a mindset issue or a confidence problem, but often a heart and identity wrestle. I talk about the unspoken grief, the vulnerability hangover, and the responsibility many faith-rooted women carry — especially those navigating leadership, business growth, faith-based motherhood, and healing while being seen. This episode isn’t about pushing past fear or building a platform faster. It’s about discernment, trust, and allowing God to shape how and when you share — without forcing yourself into a version of visibility that doesn’t fit.   Listen in, reflect on what resonates, and if this names something you’ve been carrying quietly, I’d love for you to share it with a friend or leave a review so other women can find their way here too. 💛   Grab your early bird tickets here for the Firebrand Story Room happening on May 1st and 2nd, and don't forget to download your free 3-step Brand Clarity resource to help you get clear on your messaging for 2026!   3-Steps to Brand Clarity: www.melissaleahughes.com/free-guides   Website: www.melissaleahughes.com   Connect with Melissa:   TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@melissaleahughes   Melissa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/melissaleahughes/   Rise Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/risesocialmediaagency/?hl=en   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/melissa.harrington.758   Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@melissaleahughes

    Today, I’m inviting you to kick off your shoes, grab your favorite blanket, and lean in close because this conversation with Sarah Faulkner is more than just an interview—it’s a heart-level encounter. If you’ve ever felt like your worth is tied to your productivity, or if you’re a mission-driven woman who is constantly "scurrying" to keep all the plates spinning, this episode was recorded specifically for your soul. We are peeling back the curtain on what it truly looks like to lead from a place of being radically loved rather than relentlessly busy.   In this episode, you will discover: The "Miracle in the ICU": Sarah shares the harrowing moment her high-capacity life came to a literal standstill and the shocking realization she had about her identity when she no longer had the physical ability to "do" anything for God. The Daughter Shift: We explore the profound difference between living as a "servant" versus a "daughter," and how this single perspective shift can take you from feeling burnt out to feeling absolutely unstoppable in your calling. The Antidote to Morning Panic: Sarah reveals the simple, two-minute ritual that transformed her mornings from a state of immediate anxiety and "racing heart" to a foundation of deep, unshakable peace. Leading with "Precious Objects": You'll learn how to build a brand that does more than just sell a product—it carries a message that reminds every woman she is seen, cherished, and worth more than she ever imagined.   Grab your early bird tickets here for the Firebrand Story Room happening on May 1st and 2nd, and don't forget to download your free 3-step Brand Clarity resource to help you get clear on your messaging for 2026!   Website: www.melissaleahughes.com   Connect with Melissa: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@melissaleahughes Melissa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/melissaleahughes/ Rise Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/risesocialmediaagency/?hl=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/melissa.harrington.758 Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@melissaleahughes   Connect with Sarah: Sarah's Intagram: https://www.instagram.com/mvpearlgirl/ Website: https://www.milkvelvetpearls.com/

    Ep: (152) Why You Feel Behind in Your Life and Business Even When You Trust God

    Have you ever scrolled through social media and felt like everyone is passing you by? Whether it’s a milestone in your personal life or a goal in your business, that nagging feeling of being "behind" can be paralyzing. In this episode, I’m getting real about the "C-word"—comparison—and how it acts as a thief of your joy and a blocker to the miracles God is orchestrating in your current season. I’m sharing my own journey of turning 36 and how I’ve learned to embrace the "darkroom" where God develops our best work before it ever hits the spotlight. I want to help you shift your perspective from what you lack to what is already in your hand. We’ll talk about why your "5 loaves and 2 fish" are more than enough to create momentum right now, even if you don't have a massive team or a huge budget. Whether you are in a "wilderness" season like Moses or just feeling stuck in a cycle of inaction, this episode is your reminder that God is an on-time God who cares just as much about your internal transformation as He does about your destination. What You’ll Discover in This Episode: The "Step 15" Illusion: Why you might be unfairly sabotaging your progress by comparing your beginning to someone else’s middle, and the specific cycle of inaction this creates. The Secret of the Darkroom: Why feeling "hidden" or slow is often a sign of divine preparation, and the dangerous consequences of being exposed to the spotlight prematurely. Inventory of the Miraculous: How to identify the "5 loaves and 2 fish" you currently possess—and why ignoring these small resources is the very thing keeping your next level out of reach. Decoding the "Burning Bush" in Your Everyday: How to recognize the specific patterns God uses to speak to you in the mundane moments, like the school pickup line or your favorite podcast.   Grab your early bird tickets here for the Firebrand Story Room happening on May 1st and 2nd, and don't forget to download your free 3-step Brand Clarity resource to help you get clear on your messaging for 2026!   Get that youthful glow with Graceful Glow Co. facial cups, designed to naturally boost collagen and enhance your self-care routine.

    Ep: (151) Why You're Working Hard But Isn’t Producing Momentum (Do This Instead)

    If you feel like you’re putting in massive effort but aren't seeing any momentum or results in your business or calling, you are not alone—I hear this from my clients and community almost every single day. In this episode, we are getting real about the "perfectionism trap" and why more is often actually less when it comes to your impact. I’m sharing four specific reasons why your needle might not be moving and how to discern if you're in a season of quiet, "underground" growth or if you're simply misaligned with where God has called you to be   What You’ll Discover in This Episode: The "Needle-Moving" Secret: Why your perfectly curated Canva posts and website tweaks might actually be keeping you stuck, and the one simple "friendship" skill that actually generates real opportunities. The Fear of Missing Out vs. The Power of One: How to stop the "throwing paint at the wall" approach and why narrowing your focus to just one platform for six months can lead to explosive clarity. The Hidden Growth Season: A shift in perspective for those who feel forgotten by God, revealing how internal character development and "underground" progress are often more vital than external fruit. Resistance is Not Rejection: Why a "failed" launch or a difficult path doesn't mean you heard God wrong—it might just mean you're one "tweak" or one "firebrand" connection away from your next level.   Stop letting the "fraud" mindset hold you back.

    Ep: (150) Feeling Stuck in Your Calling? How to Know If You’re Misaligned.

    Welcome to 2026! As we kick off this brand new year, I am feeling so refreshed after a much-needed break spent sledding with my kids and reflecting on how we can show up as exactly who God called us to be. In this episode, I’m diving deep into a struggle many high-capacity women face: that "ugh" feeling of being stuck. If you feel like your momentum has stalled, I want to challenge you to consider that you aren't actually unmotivated—you might just be misaligned with the current season God has you in.   We often try to force "summertime" results during a "winter" season of life, and the result is always frustration and exhaustion. I’m sharing my own journey of learning to trust God’s timing, including the moments I’ve had to surrender successful assignments to simply be a mom. My goal for you today is to help you stop people-pleasing, let go of the "hustle," and start standing boldly in the identity the Holy Spirit has given you.   In this episode, you’ll discover: The Hidden Value of the "Bare" Seasons: Why feeling like "nothing is happening" is often the most productive time for your soul, and how to identify if you’re currently in a period of underground growth. The Identity Shift: The simple question you can ask God today that will completely reframe your calling and release you from the fear of "missing" your purpose. The Faith to Quit: Why being "faithful" doesn't always mean staying put, and how to recognize when an old assignment has lost its life so you can move into the new thing God is springing up. The Power of the T-Chart: A practical journey to take with the Holy Spirit to identify what is actually draining your energy and how to delegate your way back to joy.   Grab your early bird tickets here for the Firebrand Story Room happening on May 1st and 2nd, and don't forget to download your free 3-step Brand Clarity resource to help you get clear on your messaging for 2026!   Have your content done for you at Rise Social Media Agency: https://melissaleahughes.com/rise   Website: www.melissaleahughes.com   Connect with me!

    Ep: (149) Part 3: 10 Lessons Learned in 2025

    Happy New Year, everyone! As I wrap up 2025, I’m reflecting on the raw and transformative lessons that shaped my business and faith, from the gut-wrenching necessity of hard endings to the surprising peace found in saying "no" to scaling. I’m getting vulnerable about why I walked away from a high-level mastermind to prioritize being a mom and how I’ve learned to navigate the "people-pleaser" trap by implementing radical boundaries. Whether you’re a leader facing a tough confrontation or a high-capacity woman feeling the weight of "more," this episode is an invitation to stop conforming to the world's pace and start leaning into the specific, anointed path God has for you in the coming year.   What You’ll Learn in This Episode The "Faith to Quit": Why ending a partnership, a program, or even a successful project isn't a sign of failure, but a prerequisite for the next fruitful season God has for you. The Contentment Trap: We’re often told that "more" is always better, but I’m sharing the specific moment I realized that scaling my business was actually stealing my joy—and why I told my business coach I’d rather "go color" with my kids. The Secret Language of Resentment: How to identify where your boundaries are leaking and why your feelings of burnout might actually be a roadmap to where you need to draw a harder line in your home and business. Leadership as Confrontation: Why loving people well sometimes means having the backbone to let them go, and how "graceful endings" can produce the most fruit in someone’s life.   Apply for fireBRAND 2026 Here: https://melissaleahughes.com/firebrandacademy   Free Resource: Social Media Content System Have your content done for you: Rise Social Media Agency   Let’s Connect!

    Ep: (148) Part 2: 10 Lessons Learned in 2025

    Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone! As we wrap up the year, I’m continuing my "Lessons I Learned in 2025" series. Last week, I shared the first four revelations that shaped my year, and today, I’m diving into the next three. These lessons were born out of moments of total frustration, sweaty-palmed fear, and those "God-smack" realizations that happen when you're just trying to solve a problem in your business.  In this episode, I’m getting vulnerable about the moments where my own internal chaos was actually the "bottleneck" in my ministry. I share a story about a terrifying amusement park ride that changed my perspective on fear forever and why I decided to plan a major in-person event in just two months—despite everyone telling me it was a bad idea. If you’ve been feeling burnt out, stuck, or like you’re waiting for a "sign" to take your next big leap, this conversation is for you. In this episode, you’ll learn: The Mirror Effect: Why your business, ministry, or organization is a direct reflection of your internal world—and how to identify the specific mindset shifts needed to sustain your next level of growth. The "Ripcord" Revelation: Why I forced myself to swing from a massive tower at an amusement park to save my business, and how your fear might be the only thing keeping your feet on the ground while God is trying to take you to new heights. The Strategy of "Stupid" Ideas: How to distinguish between a "good" business move and a "God" idea that sounds completely illogical (like Noah building an ark or me hosting an event in 60 days) but carries the grace you need to succeed. Tuning into the Divine Frequency: Practical ways to recognize the voice of the Holy Spirit versus the voice of condemnation, and how to stay within the "pleasant boundary lines" God has set for your life and work. What lesson resonated with you most? I’d love to hear from you! Treat yourself to an early Christmas present—a ticket to the Firebrand Story Room this May. There is something transformative about getting in the room with other faith-filled women, and I’d love to see you there.   Free Resource: Social Media Content System Have your content done for you: Rise Social Media Agency   Let’s Connect!
