Hi guys and Happy New Year! This year I was inspired to do a guest blog series on entrepreneurship for the month of January. You guys know that I have a unique experience of where I feel like God “dragged” me into this profession, LOL. It was not necessarily one that I chose (since I… Continue reading Life as an Entrepreneur: How I Got Started- Lisa Nichols

Hashtag Boss Moves
The truth is, this experience of entrepreneurship causes me to be on my knees. I have to be in tune with the Holy Spirit for His plan and strategy for my life. And I have to believe that there is fruit on the other side of the pruning, sewing and investing that will eventually match my faith journey. Because I have yet to see that, and I have been deeply hurt by the wait.
There is Purpose in the Process
This weekend I prepared to share the story of my career, and how in hindsight I can see patterns that emerged. Though I didn’t get to share my journey in its entirety (I am rescheduled to do so at a later date), I decided to share on this here blog for those who may be… Continue reading There is Purpose in the Process
Turning Points
I had a bittersweet conversation with a friend today. Bitter because her boyfriend is dying from cancer. Sweet b/c God is in the midst. I have known this woman for some time and she has been instrumental in my career. God has used her as an advocate for me and used her to keep doors… Continue reading Turning Points
The Art of Waiting
I have an interview today. It is the one I’ve been wanting for 3 months now. 3 very long months.

Walking Out, Taking Thoughts Captive
Ever have a time in life you feel lost? You struggle with your identity? Highlights of life and Jesus seem like distant memories and yet were only months ago? I could not relate to people who did not feel His presence or experience a continuous expression of His reality. I could not be there for… Continue reading Walking Out, Taking Thoughts Captive
3 Months In
It will be 3 months this week since I got “the news”. I found myself today thinking about my dwindling time period of locking something in so that I don’t have a gap in pay. I found myself driving to Panera so that I could use the internet and apply for more jobs. I’m sitting at… Continue reading 3 Months In
Transitioning
Only a few months ago I was in the thick of the routine. I had found a way to carve out interest in the mundane and apparently that was my ticket to change. Often I felt like Joseph, sitting in that jail cell, weighed down by circumstances. Now it feels like the chief butler has… Continue reading Transitioning
One Month In
This week will be one month since the lay off. It has flown by. My how I have grown! 8 years ago when I faced unemployment I was ready to cash out my savings from fear that God would not provide and everyday that eeked by felt like eternity. I was so stressed I lost… Continue reading One Month In
