The Powerhouse Podcast | How to Win Your Pageant, How to Improve Your Mindset, Increase Confidence, Stop Comparing, Grow Your

#1 MINDSET + HIGH PERFORMANCE PODCAST FOR HIGH ACHIEVING PAGEANT WOMEN Do you sometimes struggle to believe in yourself, despite having big, audacious goals? Have you ever felt alone, because you’re the only one in your circle dreaming as big as you are? Do you desire a deeper, more fulfilled life spiritually, mentally, and professionally, without the dreaded + seemingly never-ending “motivated vs totally burned out” cycle? Do you desire to know Jesus at a deeper level, want Christ-centered goals in line with His will for you, but don’t know where to start or who to trust? Do you want to learn the REAL things that will help you reach your next BIG goal in pageants, work, or your relationships? Do you want to finally conquer the inner-monster inside of you and step into your most confident, courageous self? God wants you to be even holier, happier, healthier, hotter, and wealthier than you have even allowed yourself to dream of! (According to Ephesians 3:20; 3 John 1:2) What do I call this woman? A POWERHOUSE. Welcome to The Powerhouse Podcast - Your Go-To show for high achieving, busy Christian women who want to live their dream lives – confident, courageous, making a massive impact, and on fire for God. As busy Christian women, sometimes we feel guilty or like we have no time to build the life we feel called to by God. Or, we feel alienated because we’re the only person we know dreaming as big as the calling God’s put on your heart. I created this podcast to show you that everything you’ve dreamed of is 100% possible for you. If you’re a pageant competitor - this will help you win your pageant. If you’re not, it will help you connect with God and yourself on a whole new level (yes, even for women with “no time”) so that you can accomplish whatever goals are on your heart in this season. How? Just keep plugging in, applying what you hear, + listening to the next episode. WHY SHOULD YOU LISTEN TO ME? Hi, y’all! I’m Megan (Swanson) Rhodes - 2x Former Miss Nebraska (MAO + MUO), wife + mama, 7-Figure Entrepreneur, Christian NLP Mindset + Life Coach, singer, and author. Welcome to the Powerhouse Podcast!
