Episode 71 is now live — link in bio 🎧

If your DMs are full of conversations that go nowhere, this episode will show you exactly how to turn them into clients.

Are you freezing when it’s time to mention your offer, overthinking what to say next, or watching conversations slowly fade out?

In this episode, you’ll learn why your DMs aren’t converting and how to fix it using a simple, faith-based sales approach that builds real trust without feeling pushy.

I walk you through a practical 5-step sales conversation flow: Connection, Clarification, Expanding the Problem, Vision + Gap, and Invitation. You’ll also see real examples of what to say vs what not to say so you can confidently lead conversations that turn into sales.

We also talk about the Know, Like, Trust (KLT) factor and how it actually builds inside your conversations—not your content.

If you’re a Christian entrepreneur who wants to sell confidently in your DMs while staying aligned with God, this episode gives you a simple framework you can use today.

You know what’s wild? 🤯🤯🤯

Some of you have been praying for breakthrough all year...
but still playing it safe like God didn’t already give you permission to move.

You’ve been saying...
“I’m waiting on the right time.”
“I just want to make sure I’m ready.”
“I’ll launch after I fix my messaging.”
“I’ll start showing up more confidently once I feel more confident.”

But truthfully...
You’ve been waiting on a feeling instead of walking by faith.

You’ve overthought your content.
You’ve second-guessed your offers.
You’ve sat on fire ideas that could have changed your business because fear whispered, “What if it doesn’t work?”

And now you’re wondering why your momentum feels stuck.

Because somewhere along the way...
you started trading obedience for overthinking.
You started making “safe” moves instead of Spirit-led ones.
You started running your business by the world’s strategies instead of God’s supernatural guidance.

And girl... that’s why your business feels heavy instead of Holy.

Here’s the truth...
You don’t need another month of planning.
You need a heart posture shift.
You need to get bold again.
You need to sell like you trust that God already went before you.

🔥 The final two months of this year could be your biggest yet... but only if you stop trying to “get it right” and start letting God lead it right.

So here’s your invitation...

I just opened a last-minute 1:1 coaching spot for the woman who is done waiting.

The one who’s ready to hear God clearly, sell with Holy Spirit confidence, and finally move from struggling to surrendered success.

If your spirit just leapt reading this... that’s your sign.

Stop waiting for perfect.
Stop hiding behind planning.
And come step into the space where faith meets action and miracles happen.

💬 DM me “I’m ready” and I’ll send you the details.

Let’s finish this year led by faith, not fear. 💛

I used to shrink back in my business because I was scared of what people would think, scared of being too pushy , scared of failing , and I'd sit with my offers and do nothing.

I Prayed for a success , but I was still playing small...

One day God reminded me: He doesn't call you to play small, He calls you to sell boldly and to step into the gifts He's given to you even when it feels uncomfortable.

Selling isn't about pressure or manipulation.
It's about being of service to others.

I thought I had to wait until I felt ready but faith doesn't wait for permission from fear. Faith shows up and takes action even when it's messy.

If you have ever held back from offering your services because of fear then I invite you for a 30 day FREE TRIAL to Confident Sales Academy membership!!!

I used to HATE DMs. 😖

Sliding into someone’s inbox felt awkward, pushy, and icky. Every message I sent made me worry:

“Am I annoying them? Am I coming off desperate? Ugh, I hate this.”

And asking for the sale? Forget it. That was pure anxiety.

Then something changed. 💡

I realized selling doesn’t have to feel pushy. It doesn’t have to be scary.

I started doing three things differently:
1️⃣ Listening instead of pitching.
2️⃣ Responding with intention instead of scripts.
3️⃣ Letting my leads lead the conversation.

And suddenly… the impossible became normal.

Here’s a story that blew my mind.

I was DMing a client who was scared to invest. She told me:

"I don’t understand why I’m doing this, but I feel like you can help me, and I’m going to do it."

She paid $750 in full.

But here’s the kicker… during the same conversation, she asked about upgrading her package. 💥

Her total investment jumped to $1,200, which she paid the following month!

And this? It’s not a one-time thing.

After I learned how to sell without being pushy, letting my leads guide the conversation, moments like this became regular occurrences.

The lesson:

Selling in DMs doesn’t have to feel icky.

✅ Listen with care.
✅ Respond with intention.
✅ Let your leads guide the conversation.

When you do this, sales happen naturally. People are drawn to work with you because they feel understood. Because the next step feels right—not forced.

And here’s the secret sauce: FAITH. 🙏

Trust that God is guiding these conversations. Trust that He’s already planting seeds in hearts before you even send a message.

When I stopped trying to “make” a sale happen and leaned on God’s guidance, DMs became not just a marketing tool—they became a way to serve, grow, and fulfill purpose.

I remember staring at the mentorship program I knew God was calling me to which was a $7,500 investment. 😳 I hadn’t even made that in a year. Fear gripped me. How could I possibly afford this? Can't I do something cheaper? Less scary?

I asked my husband if I could do it, and he said, “Go outside. Relax. Listen to this podcast episode and then we’ll talk.”

I went back in and said, “I want to do it.” He asked the question that changed everything:

"Do you feel like you could make a profit from this investment?"
I said, “I don’t know, but I’m confident I can make it happen.”

Then came the bank. First, they declined me. I thought, Well, that’s it. But I didn’t give up. I asked to speak with someone else....they approved $5,000. Not enough. I asked again. Finally… God made it happen. I was approved for the full $7,500 with zero income history.

I still get chills thinking about it. There is no logical reason I should have been approved but God knew I was ready. and made it happen 🙏 That night, I signed up.

Within two months, I made back that investment and prior to that, I was lucky to hit $500 a month! I don't share income stories very much, but I want to show you what IS possible when you let God lead instead of your fear.

Here’s what I want you to hear: Fear will scream, but God’s power is louder. He will provide, guide, and open doors you never thought possible. You just have to trust and step forward. 💛

✨ Ask yourself today: What is one step of faith you’ve been afraid to take and what would happen if you trusted God to make a way?

Don’t wait for perfect conditions. Take one step and watch Him move.

It’s 8pm.
My kid’s in bed.
I got 3 hours of sleep last night…

And instead of going to bed like a responsible adult, I’m sitting here doom scrolling — trying to figure out what I should be doing with my life right now 😂

Like girl, your body is literally begging for sleep… and your brain’s like, “No, let’s overthink instead.” 🧠💀

But honestly, sometimes these quiet moments hit deep.
You finally have peace and silence, and your mind decides now is the perfect time to plan your future, redesign your life, and start a business all at once.

So if you’re here too — just know you’re not alone.
We’re tired, but we’ve got dreams.
We’re overwhelmed, but we’re still showing up.
And tomorrow… we’ll try to sleep before the overthinking starts 🤍

You don’t need the perfect backdrop.
You don’t need your makeup done.
You don’t need to “look like” a business owner.

You just need to be real.

I filmed this while cleaning my house because that’s real life. 🧺

And if I can make a sale while cleaning my toddlers mess behind the couch, then you can absolutely can make one while living your everyday life too.

Because people don’t buy perfection
they buy connection.
They buy from people they trust and relate to.

So stop waiting for the perfect lighting, the perfect words, the perfect outfit —
just show up as you.

The messy, genuine, faith-filled, doing-your-best you. 💛

Because that’s who God called to make an impact — not the filtered version of you.

👉 Be relatable.
👉 Be real.
👉 And watch what happens.

Fear is a liar. Ready is a lie.

When you're starting out, there are a lot of lies that try to get in your way.

But one of the biggest lies is that you have to wait until you're ready to start.

Because you'll never be ready, and that's okay.

You have to take the leap—God will provide the missing pieces along the way! He will equip & qualify you!

Are you frozen in fear, waiting to get started on your dreams because you think you're not ready yet or aren't qualified enough. Maybe you have an idea or a business plan or even an existing business that you love, but you don't know how to get it unstuck and started....

Here's the thing: you'll never be 'ready'. And that's okay! The world has enough perfectly-polished people, and it needs more people who are willing to make mistakes, learn from those mistakes, and keep going. It needs more people who don't let fear stop them from getting started.

But getting started can be a feat in itself, especially when you don't have all the answers. How do you know which steps to take? How do you get over the humps that inevitably come up when you're building something new?

That's where I come in! Send me a DM to find out how I can support your business and help you move through fear so that you can start living your dream today! Are YOU next? I have 2 spaces available for 1:1 to finish 2025 strong

P.S This is the LAST month for 1:1 calls at my discounted rate of $197 USD and get your second for only $50 (3 available)
