Success Is Not Convenient

Building a Business on Faith, Not Fear

Bernie Gallerani Episode 5

In this episode, I sit down with Derek McMonagle, a young entrepreneur who recently walked away from a stable job and paycheck to pursue his calling. He’s launching a faith-based coaching business that helps professionals build discipline, accountability, and holy habits. We talk through the emotional and mental challenges that come with leaving security behind, especially while preparing for marriage and building a future family. Derek shares the highs and lows of entrepreneurship, his experience with a past business that collapsed, and what it means to build something truly rooted in faith. If you've ever felt called to do something bigger but fear is holding you back, this conversation is for you.
