(4.22) Inner Circle Call — Battlefield of Business

We dove into how we build distinctive brands and integrate faith without monetizing the gospel. I walked you through the four-part faith-first framework I built around Philippians 4:6–7. 

Transcript

SPEAKER_02 0:05

Hello, gorgeous inner circle. So good to see you all. Oh, I am so excited for today. I'm excited for some wins that I know y'all want to share. Um, we got party hair on Molly. She's ready to go. Ray Ray's got her called shirt because she is called. And Ray Ray, San Diego, got to be with my girl last night for her birthday. Happy, happy birthday, Ray Ray. Another year smarter, wiser, more beautiful. Just the best in her family pictures. I mean, why don't we all just go to Washington and get some Bubba and Gracie and Matt tips on like the selfie family picture is next level. It's one thing to get family pictures, but the selfie family pictures that the Harriman's continue to produce, mind blown. Mind blown. I mean, seriously, we could use tips. We could use tips. Yay! All right, I think um Christine is doing awesome things with BSF today. Um so she might be popping on. She might be staying. Oh Tina, are you just leaving? BSF the meeting. She's driving.

SPEAKER_03 1:23

Um, sorry, I had to unmute. No, I'm on my way to the airport. But I did talk to her and she did say she's had a heavy, heavy week. Um with having to tell our class she's leaving and then going to the next class tomorrow. And lots of emotions from a lot of women. So she's carrying all of that with a lot of grace, as she always does. But she's like, hey, I don't know if I'm gonna be able to make it or not, because my my brain is fried and my heart is heavy. And my girl, if you need a moment, take a moment.

SPEAKER_02 1:57

Amen. Amen. I said the same. So we'll we'll get it. I figured you would.

SPEAKER_03 2:02

She's like, Do you think it's bad? She's so sweet. She's like, Do you think it's bad? I'm like, no, we we understand.

SPEAKER_02 2:07

No, totally. And I still appreciate when you guys reach out to myself or Core just letting us know what's going on. Obviously, a standard in Forrest Glory is to be live. Why? We want you to get the most out of your investment, and we know the most happens when we're live versus replay. We've already identified that most of us are not replay girlies, um, which is great. So when we show up live and we're ready to go, then we're gonna get the most out of it. And we have a fire kind of bookend to Battlefield of the Mind, Battlefield of the Business, and then my secret sauce, um, that I think is a powerful framework found only in his word. Um, but I want to open us up in prayer and then I want to share some wins. So, Father, I just thank you for today, Lord. This is the day that you have made. We will rejoice, we will be glad in it. Father, I just thank you. The blessing of the Lord is on each one of these inner circle women. Father, I thank you that you are guiding them with your own eye. Father, your word says that your hand is upon them and the angel of the Lord is encamped around them. Father, there is nothing these women cannot do. So, Father, I thank you that you enlarge their vision today. Father, I thank you for the secret sauce found in Philippians that we can put to put to the test in our life, our faith, our business, our relationships, our marriages, parenting. Father, I thank you that your word comes alive in a new way, Father, that there's a new way of doing business and doing life with you. Father, I thank you for boldness like never before. And I thank you for greater understanding and wisdom and revelation in you for your glory. Father, bless Christine as she carries this transition. Father, I just know that it's a promotion in the spirit. So, Father, I thank you that you'll have your way and you'll increase her supernaturally to do all the things that you've called her to do in this season. In Jesus' mighty name, amen. Amen, amen. All right, so who wants to open up with some whiz? I'm so excited.

SPEAKER_06 4:12

Okay, sorry, I'm driving. Um I know I think I don't know if I don't think he's driving or what he's driving here. Um I was gonna have my win um getting clarity on moving program. Um I don't okay, so I still don't know a hundred percent where Allie. I know I said early, but I am gonna explore one other one today. Um but I just want to think about it. And I am excited. Like I feel like I was just continuing to walk out. Um I haven't gotten to talk to you Eric yet. I know he's gonna work that out as well. Um and I'm just yeah, I'm just super excited about what's next. And I and it really is like walking out. Um you know, you have this perfect peace when you're walking instead with where the Lord's leading. So that's what I have right now, and I'm excited about it. So that's a win.

SPEAKER_02 5:09

That's a massive win. And the way you're showing up on social media, faith first, right? It's kind of what Lindsay said the other day when she got that, you know, random, not random at all. Like, hey, you're a woman of faith. If there's someone that I want to buy or sell a house with, it needs to be a woman of faith, right? A woman of strong convictions. I think that's a powerful way to say what people are trying to say because there's women of faith, there's people with scripture, but are you a woman of strong conviction? What does strong conviction look like? Right? Especially in 2026, especially in social media. But Mindy, I'm so proud of you for truly. I was talking to Brookie this morning, telling her that you're coming. I sent her the picture of Samuel praying over you. Um, but I was just like the amazing transformation God's done in and through you in just such a short amount of time is like, I mean, hands in the air, if all of you guys are like Jesus, when you look at Mindy pre and post, right? Imagine how many other people are saying that that aren't here, hands in the air, right? You probably can't see us. I don't even know if you're here, but we all raise our hand, needless to say, 100% committed to this transformation that God's done in and through you. And I know it's scary stepping into something new, and that's what you put in your audit. You're like, girl, I'm this is like wild, right? But the Prince of Peace, who brings perfect peace, it says peace that surpasses all understanding. So we don't need to understand ROA. We don't need to understand if that isn't it, the next thing. We just need obedience to take that first step and fully understand he's in control. Full send in control. So I'm excited for you. And you get to be with, so who's going? Ray, Ray, Tina, and Katie? So live it up in Dallas. Big hair. I mean, Molly should be going. She's she's full send into Dallas hair right now. I love it. I love it. Amazing! All right, who else has got a win for us?

SPEAKER_00 7:11

I'll shout out a personal win. Yes. Um, I think most of you know my 20-year-old is going through some stuff right now and not really talking to me. But he sent me a kind of a cute text with sometime within the last week, it said, um, which is he hasn't been talking to me really at all. He said, Hey, mama, which is that's a good sign when he calls me that. I know I'm a butt head, but I still love you with a kissy face. And I was like, Okay, Lord, I'll take what I can get.

SPEAKER_02 7:39

Micah boy! Come on, girl. Holy Spirit haunt him. That's what I pray for Micah. Like, Holy Spirit haunt him. So to me, that's just a holy spirit haunting to me. Like, mama, I know you love me, and I know God's got me. I'm gonna be a butt head because I'm 20 and I'm a boy.

SPEAKER_00 7:56

Yeah. Amen.

SPEAKER_02 7:58

Oh my gosh, that's amazing. Thank you, Lynn. Just watch what God's gonna do with Micah Boy and Malachi, right? The hardest ones, the hardest ones become the greatest in the in the move of God, in my opinion. Why? Because they don't give a rip, yeah, right? They just don't care. So they already have every look at Paul. Like he just doesn't care, right? And then he's like, well, now I still don't care, but now I have a passion. And that fiery passion in someone that doesn't care about people's opinions, that's massive. A B full send back in Cabo, looking gorgeous. How are you?

SPEAKER_05 8:38

Hi guys, I'm so good. Um, yeah, I have like really cool wins. One, I just closed like a $1.5 million contract, so that's sick. Um, but yeah, like this quarter just complete like what is it, $180 or $360 is what you say from like what I was going through before. And um I don't know if you guys remember like my prophecy of how uh what's her name? Kathy was telling me that I have like some justice call, social justice call over my life, and like really big people behind me and um a team and whatnot. I don't know if the team part has come to fruition. I don't know if the it I don't know, but my business kind of took a really unique turn over the last week when I was in Vegas for work. And um I'm starting to work with more international funds. So like in Canada, UK, Australia, and like making social justice changes across global markets of product liability suits that I'm in. And so now uh I just you know, it like it kind of really hit me in the middle of my meeting last week of just kind of the global expansion that's happening in my firm and the direction that personally I'm taking the firm. And so yeah, I thought that was really cool. I don't know how the other things are gonna be fulfilled within it, but I'm very thankful I didn't leave. So yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 10:35

So then we're yeah, that's where I'm at. Okay, so what if you could specifically say what piece of the obedience do you think you're on the other side of now?

SPEAKER_05 10:49

Man, it's you know one watching my language because before just slipping out with like the little curse words here and there. I think just me being super conscious of that. Um and also just not being afraid to ask people where they're at in their faith or kind of what's going on or what their mission or their vision is. I don't think I'm very comfortable yet with like the whole evangelical part of my faith. I don't know if that's like what specifically God has personally called me into. I don't think it is, but I think just being a person of being that cognizant of their actions and whatnot. So yeah.

SPEAKER_02 11:39

Come on, you look different. Can anyone see? Like Amy, Amy looks different. There's more peace, there's more glow, there's more confidence, there's more, yeah. Watch the chat, calmness, 100%. Like it is so cool to be a woman after the spirit. Why? Because you see after the spirit, and it's a gift, right? You can just ask the Lord, Father, let me see after the spirit. Let me not see things in the natural, let me see things in the spiritual. I promise you, pray that enough. All of a sudden, you're gonna see things, you're gonna be able to read people's journals for the purpose of edifying, encouraging, and esteeming others better than yourself, right? You gotta you gotta shut down the mean girls or the slandering or the accusing or anything else. Otherwise, you'll never see after the spirit or speak after the spirit. I digress. But A B, you look different. You look different, girl. Come on. Well, thank him. Yeah, come on. You've done the work. You have done the work. Do you guys mind if I share a story real quick? Something something happened to me yesterday. I was waiting for Ray Ray at her birthday, and I was just at the beach, and it was right where I had one of my first beach retreats. And Amy, it's so unique because the girl's from Calgary, and I actually just connected you two, and you met her, Kelly, two weeks, like right?

SPEAKER_05 12:52

So I also did a hard push for the group, by the way.

unknown 12:57

I love it.

SPEAKER_02 12:57

She'll she'll full said when she comes in, when she comes in, she's gonna need a little more washing in the blood, but that's fine. Yeah, wild. She's wild. Um, I mean, so I'm outside the restaurant that I hosted them, and then our beach retreat right there in Del Mar. And I get a text from her. And I'm like, no way. And she said, sends me a little life 360. She goes, Micah's at her youth group. She loves it, she loves the word. She just got a full ride to a Christian college. I can't thank you enough for telling me about Jesus. Okay, let me back up to how it all happened. I was at my beach retreat. I feel like it's a decade ago. I'll do the math for you guys. Anyway, it was a long time ago. And we were at a corporate dinner and at all my top earners, I flew in and I did these retreats for. And one of the girls across the tables goes, How are you and Kelly even friends? Like, you're Mother Teresa, and Kelly would probably like go dance on the stripper pole if you gave her a chance right now. And Kelly laughs out loud. She goes, Well, Allie was never this Mother Teresa. She would actually be dancing on the bar stools over there if we let her. And it was so funny because people only kind of knew me here, but Kelly knew me then. And Kelly and I hadn't seen each other since we were dancing on bar to bar tables, right? Little volleyball players, everything. And so we ended up renting this house. This will make you laugh. And of course, the description, remember the La Jolla house? The description is like 12 bedrooms, and then Sherry's in a room that's like this big. Well, Sherry, not only was the room this big, but I had a spoon with Kelly for three days. Okay. We had to share the room in the bed that was this big. I mean, we didn't care. We grew up together, we were volleyball teammates. Y'all know how that is. Like you get naked together, shower together, everything. So she's like, get in here, spoon me. And she like loved it, right? Because like sisterhood and we hadn't seen each other forever. So jokingly, I said, I said, this Jesus thing's gonna rub off on you, girl. Like you get this close up in here, like you're not, you're gonna want this, some of this stuff. And so after three days, she's getting ready to leave back to Calgary. She married a NHL player. That's why she moved up there from Chicago. She says, Listen, this Jesus thing's real, huh? I said, Yes, he is. She goes, Well, let me figure it out. Lo and behold, she earns a Lexus. I fly in. She goes, I just want to tell you, uh, Matt wants to talk to you, and uh, you better be ready. I was like, All right, bring it. And it kind of kills me because Jess has a Matt too, and Matt and Matt are like the same people, right? Jess and Kelly, very similar. I'm not sure about the bar stools, Jess. We can talk about that after, but fiery, powerful businesswoman wives with like these fun husbands. So she sits me down at the table with Matt, and she's like, first of all, he doesn't like God. He doesn't like Christians, um, and he's got a lot of questions. I was like, I have to meet this dude the first time like this. Bring it. I sat down and I think have I shared the story with you guys where he just drilled me on the Bible for like an hour and a half. Anyway, drills me on every hard thing. His dad, his brother's a homosexual, you know, all the hard things, like the things that really like get Christians kind of like in a in a ball. Anyway, Amy, to your evangelical story, I was like, Lord, just you say you'll fill our mouths, right? You guys, when you get in these situations with people that are really hard, God fills your mouth. And so I was like, Lord, let the word of God speak. I don't have to know everything. I don't have a, you know, a THD. I don't know, but I love you and you love Matt. So let's do this. Long story short, after we get done, Matt's stone cold the whole time I'm talking to him. Super hot, NHL player, but like you could tell there's a hardness in his heart towards the things of God. And he goes, Thank you. And I'm like, Oh, well, thank you. Praise God. You know, like, did that go good? How are we? He goes, You're the only Christian I ever met that knows the Bible. Only Christian he's ever met that knows the word of God. I'm like, Matt, let me for let me ask forgiveness for behalf of the hundred thousand people you've met that call themselves Christians that don't know the word. And he's like, I appreciate that. Long story short, A B, Matt ended up at church on Resurrection Sunday, and Matt grabbed the new believer book. And so all of this has just come to fruition, you guys. But I want to encourage you, you are planting seeds all day, every day. You have no idea, and people will respond differently, wrong. You might think you lost the business deal. You might think that you just like burned a massive bridge because the husband now hates you. You don't know. Kelly's my was my top earner in my first company in Calgary. We did a lot of things together, and she was still cussing up a storm, drinking all night with her Canadian team, like being really ridiculous. When I was like, oh my gosh, act your age, what's wrong with you? Right? Like we hit heads a lot in the company because we were together a lot and people were like, How is this your girl? Like, she's nuts. And I'm like, I see the eternal purposes of God on Kelly's life. I see the eternal purpose of God on Mika and Lily's lives, her daughter's, right? And I see the internal purpose of God on Matt and her life. And now, 10 years later, I want to say it's been 10 years, who can know? From that beach retreat of her being like, Okay, why are you Mother Teresa? Like, are you gonna drink at all? A little bit? Are you gonna do anything? Do you cuss? Can we cuss anymore? Can we do that? Are you gonna be that? You know, like she just wanted to bend the rules. But I was just like, when you're a woman of conviction, Amy, it's like you don't have to be preachy. Amen. You don't have to be the person that's gonna turn everyone off. You have to be you, a woman of conviction, hold that standard, and then people will call you 10 years later or text you and be like, you changed my life. I will never, ever, ever be able to thank you enough for bringing Jesus there, right? For bringing Jesus to me and Meeks. And and then she says to me, Meeks and I need to be on your podcast so we can talk about mothers, daughters coming into Christianity. I'm like, I'm going to my podcast girly's birthday right now. She's like, let's go. So anyway, yes, she will be in it. Um, thank you for letting me share that story because I just want you guys to continue to plant seeds. And I don't want you to be someone you're not, right? Like, if we are out there cussing up a storm and drinking our face off, I'm sorry, you are not really identifying with the father. You're not, right? You're that says you're either a friend of the world or a friend of the father. So, Amy, I love that Holy Spirit conviction on you to be like, you know what? I don't think that lines up with who I want to become. Are we gonna mess up? Sure. But even last night, Marissa said to me at Ray Ray's dinner, she's like, wow, I haven't been around cussing women in a long time. I'm kind of taken off guard. And I was like, girl, this is the mission field. It's Ray's birthday. Like, these are these are souls, sister, like, hello. But I was like prayed up. I actually got there early to get prayed up. I went to the beach and just got prayed up because I knew God was gonna do awesome things. That's what Ray is. Ray is a bridge from where the Lord's called her out, right? So I always know if it's gonna be something for Ray Ray. It's gonna be an awesome opportunity. Um, just and then it was so cool. Ray's like, ah, will you just pray us up? I'm like, absolutely, right? Like, no, big down the girls are like, wow, that's amazing. And it was nothing, right? It's nothing to you and I, but that's what Ray is. She's a bridge from people that have been in New Age are still, you know, doing things that they they think to be true, but they're seeing Ray and Sammy's transformation. They're like, Okay, girl, what's up? What's up? There's something happening up in here. So I love that. Does anyone else have anything else before we move on in?

SPEAKER_09 20:24

I'll go. Yeah, girl. Um, so I well, like personal and professional wins. So uh the last speaking engagement that I put in the chat since then, I've booked two more, which is super cool. So, like, we're on the move, man. Like, let's go. So, and just like, and you and I were talking about this being bull and like, you need a speaker, I'm it. When do you have your next event? Just like throwing it, just putting it out there. I'm like, you respectfully, you need me. Um, I just know that I have that just in this season, God has that favor on it. So I'm really excited. And one of those is actually a um military spouse entrepreneur event. So it's my first military event, which is it's doesn't even matter how big it is, it just opens the door. But I'm really excited about that one because they'll be small, but like, who cares? Um, and I went yesterday to go get my military ID officially at the Air Force base here. Let me tell you, I was like, Lord, these are the people. Oh my goodness, like they are a different breed. And so I Courtney's laughing. She's like, I had to like bite my tongue being like the organization's terrible, the low-level thinking is driving me nuts, but great mission field, Lord. I'm here for it. I had to walk away being like, just be quiet, just shh, you know, and but then it was like that was more of a test for me than anybody else, just hearing and seeing things. I saw people making fun of me because I had like bright red on in my hair. I'm just like, what world is this? This is like a whole nother world. But I just saw the brokenness and I'm like, okay, Lord, just put me in. Like, let's. I've actually spent a lot of time trying to be away from those environments because I do not like them. But the Lord's like, joke's on you. We're putting you in that, and it's like full, full blown. So I'm excited for it though, because even the military event, as small as it is, out of all of them, there is such an identity crisis for women in like how they just attach themselves to their husband's rank and like all this stuff. And the more I see that, the more my heart breaks. I'm like, Lord, we got to get in there. So I'm just, I'm really excited to see where that leads. Um, so just yeah, people just like, you need to meet, you need to meet, you need to meet. I'm like, yes, yes, yes, yes, and yes. So that's been really cool opening up new doors, um, bringing potential new people in for the inner circle, clients, all of that. And just feels good. It feels right and it's um exciting. Because the old me, probably like maybe a year or two ago would have taken that, and the ego would have been puffed up to high heaven. And now it's like, Lord, I only want to be on this stage if you want me to be on this stage, podcasts, physical stage, whatever it is. But his message is so thick in my heart and literally just like tattooed everywhere that I'm like, I want to go transform that room with you. Let's go, but send me. So that's exciting.

SPEAKER_02 22:56

Okay, kind of like Ray Ray got butterflies for Mindy. Um, last call about I just really got this, like, I don't know, something pulsating in my chest when you started talking about that. And what Molly, I specifically love. Molly in her monthly audit was like, all right, girl, connect me with the people. And I was like, let's go. I love when you turn back my coaching on me. Like, yeah, what what stages do I need to put on? You know the people that need I need me on my stage. You tell me who stage is. And so this morning I'm like blowing it up with different connections. And one of them is the one of the top people in the military, Jen Griswold, who is in Washington, DC, who is so uber connected, who got Molly on that stage with the military uh event. And there's so many incredible, incredible, godly people that are so close to the president that came from military into political parties. So you might just be at the like ground level of the people giving you the side eye. And the next thing you know, and maybe that's like the thing on my heart right now, or like the pressing that I feel, the next thing is that you're elevated to the stages and you're in the White House. Right? But we got to take care of the least of these first. And ain't no ego gonna allow you to get through the doors of the White House if you can't take care of the least of these at the, you know. Jess, or I mean, Jess just said that court can help you out. Like, yeah, courts lived this and breathed this. Um, and there's yeah, they're such an incredible, and you know that your husband was called by name into the army. That's not small potatoes, especially the way that you guys have done it. There's a way bigger calling and a way bigger vision than God on all of this girl. Massive. Okay, speaking of getting into the right places, are you guys ready? Or does Ray Ray share? Yes.

SPEAKER_01 24:47

Oh, I've I have just a quick win, which is um just clarity on home base and what we're doing with that. So we totally hit our wall and we hit the end of our travel situation, and um, it just like came suddenly and quickly, and all of a sudden we were like, we hate this, and I don't want to look at a suitcase, even though I'm literally going to Dallas today. Um, it took everything in me to like unpack and pack my suitcase. And so we're just really excited to like be closing that chapter and opening the new one. We're deciding on staying in San Diego, and so that just feels really good. And so I was able to like share that with my San Diego girlies at the birthday party, and I just know that this is gonna really um be supportive for like next stages, and yeah, we were like going back and forth on Hawaii and all this stuff, and it's just really interesting how like God works, and I just kept praying that I'm like, God, where do you want us? And so it was a lot of doors just kind of kept closing in the direction that I thought we were gonna go in, and um it just got a lot closer to uh clarity and being in San Diego and sound now we're like looking for our home, and I'm just so excited for that next chapter and like really grounding. And Sammy and I have even had like a lot of like business ideas come because we're like, okay, we can we can do more once we're not bouncing around, and this is gonna this is really gonna shift and like be that next level evolution for everything that we can do and how we can serve our clients and um expand in a new way. So yeah, just wanted to share that because the last uh two weeks has actually been like really rough. Um, just feeling super unsettled and just being like really tired and over it. And so it just feels really good to be like, okay, we have our solution and it does feel like it's from God and getting lots of confirmation around it.

SPEAKER_02 26:42

So let's find win. That was the best announcement. We went to her birthday dinner last night. She's like, so and it's all San Diego girlies, kind of one travel still. And she's like, um, by the way, I'm back. We're like, I did the towel thing, like in the middle of the restaurant. That person invite me to your party. But I was like, I prayed you home. And Marissa looks at me and she goes, You pray everyone here. I'm like, watch out, girly. Watch. Y'all might be moving in my backyard. San Diego needs Jesus and he's bringing the right people. And what I love too, Ray, you and Sammy are coming back as totally different humans than you left April last year. I mean, you still look like Benjamin Button from all your like, you know, hydro chamber thing. What'd you live in? That bubble. What was it called? The H bot. The H bot. So she she broke her knee, right? And shattered it and all the things. So she lived in an H-bot. It was a little coffin in their little um condo. And I would like watch her just become this like younger version of herself. So you still look like that. But the growth, the intimacy that you guys have in your marriage, the love that Sammy now has for Jesus, and like falling, feeling called a church of Rancho Bernardo and serve like come on. I sent you a VBS for Rafa, three years old.

SPEAKER_01 27:56

He can go done on our calendar. So yeah, it's feeling really good. Things are definitely coming together. And we may even potentially one idea that we have is to start a podcast studio in our home and be renting it out and like allowing that to be part of you know a business plan. And so it's just really fun. Like we're we're getting creative and fun with it. So we can kind of uh start this bigger vision that we have of having multiple homes and doing a retreat center. We're like, let's just start in San Diego where we have our people and kick it off with the little uh media studio. So yeah, fun stuff.

SPEAKER_02 28:32

All right, October retreat, all you podcasters or those that want people on your podcast that are in inner circle. We're gonna have to do a little day out before, after, whatever, October 13th, 16th.

SPEAKER_01 28:42

100%.

SPEAKER_02 28:43

Let's go. Oh, it's gonna be so good, friends. Okay, speaking, does anyone else have anything? I don't want to cut anyone else off. Obviously, I'm biting to the bit to share something, but tell me. Anyone else? I know Katie's going through security. Did you get on yet, Katie girl? Sherry, you have something gorgeous? Your hair looks good.

SPEAKER_07 29:09

I was just gonna say I'm having a bad hair day because it's pouring rain here in Boise all day. It was 78 degrees yesterday in the last couple days. So beautiful, and today it's like 40 and freezing and raining. So but your nails and hair look great.

SPEAKER_06 29:25

So my nails and hair look great.

SPEAKER_07 29:26

So no, I feel like a little bit of a drowned rat. So thank you for saying that. Um, thank you. No, just small wins with um doing Chelsea's program. I feel like a million bucks. So I feel fantastic. Say more. Uh so I just I mean, I just love Chelsea and John. They're amazing. Um, and I just I started with their like pre-stuff last week and this week, because they give you two weeks to kind of get your life together and to to like kind of practice before they actually start. And so um last week I was after a few days, I'm like, I feel amazing. Like my body feels amazing, my skin looks a lot better. Um, but I just feel like I have a lot more energy, which is great. Um and I've lost like four pounds, so which was really not that I'm like super looking at that, that isn't the reason really why I'm doing it. Um, but I I just feel good. I just feel great. And they're just wonderful people. So I can't say enough, but that's my win. I've been kind of focused on on that. And I really love how God gives me the space to focus on certain things that I need to by making sure that my schedule is just nice and consistent and not overwhelming. Um, He opens up space for me to do things that I need to do for myself. So that's been really good. So nice win.

SPEAKER_02 30:51

Okay, but this is the biggest win. So when I did the protocol, immediately I thought of Sherry. I'm like, Sherry's got to do this with me. And it was just not God's timing. You're just like, okay, that sounds amazing because we both have skin things. Well, we don't, in Jesus' name, we don't. But yeah, anyway, and so this retreat, I'm like, gosh Lord, like Sherry needs to do this. I know it's gonna be such a blessing to her. And then you are thinking about Chelsea for two weeks, and then Chelsea calls me, she's thinking about you for two weeks. And I'm like, let's get done with this already. But it's so much bigger than just the health protocol. I think your partnership and what God's gonna call you to do in the med spa through energized health. And I think we're living in a wild time of pettides and awesomeness. And um, there's all gonna be a whole lot of fallout of things of like really understanding the the cellular health of things. Yeah, um and John and Chelsea are very brilliant, you know. They've they've been the top of the, you know, make America health healthy again. That's theirs from the Lord before RFK, and then getting connected to RFK. And like it's just really cool to see Blush Med Spa rise up and be like the people that they're like, hey, you. I actually think you and us, I mean, come on, Jesus.

SPEAKER_07 32:00

I know he's so good, he's so good. And I mean, I know it's a small win, but it's a big win for me. And I don't have any like giant business wins or anything this week because I've had some amazing thing happen. Um, but God has been just revealing so much to me about um like I don't even I don't even know about food and about how we view food. And he's been revealing that to me about um just like obesity and how we act around it and how semi-glutide. So he's been just speaking into me some of the things that confirm that Chelsea's program is the way everybody should eat, really. I mean, forever. Um, and their protocol is what we should be doing forever. So he's he's been very supportive in that, and it's been nothing but great. So anyway, thank you for letting me speak.

SPEAKER_02 32:54

No, are you kidding me? Thank you for and it's so good because I wanted Katie to come on, and so it was like perfect timing because here she is, merch for Jesus. Oh, Katie girl, yesterday Nades was here and I was in my Jesus is King cropped, and it literally stops right here. I'm like, Nades, come come look at me in my I'm like, it makes me laugh every time I put it on because I feel like a Barbie doll with this like little crop, but Nades has no torso. I almost gave it to her, but I didn't. Sorry, Nates. Maybe next time I'll buy you one. Um, but Katie, I wanted to shout you out for health and wellness because last night we were at Ray's birthday, and there's this girl who's just adorable, and she'll be saved in Jesus' mighty name. Ray Ray, what's her name? Why did I just forget her name?

SPEAKER_01 33:38

Whitney. That's what you're talking about, right?

SPEAKER_02 33:40

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 33:40

She just owns like half of the most uh expensive part of San Diego.

SPEAKER_02 33:47

Like she has a purple Lamborghini. It's just fun. She wit is just fun. She was the one that was cussing up a storm and Marissa's like, oh wow. I'm like, what? No, she's amazing. She's gonna be saved. But Whit is always like in great shape. Shouldn't have kids, but doesn't matter. She is Rip City. So she showed us this picture, Katie girl, of Wit, like I think four months in between, right? Ray Ray, with like not really changing a whole lot of protocol. And so, of course, me, just the person at the end of the table here, Wit here. I'm like, so how do we get the six pack? Where do we get the washboard abs? What are we doing with our life? And you know what she said, Katie girl? She's like 10K steps, non-negotiable, every single day. Come on. So, Katie, I want to shout you out because you've always made that as principal. And you're, I mean, you do 20. I didn't want to be like, my girl does 20K, and then my other girl does 20K days. But I just appreciate you, Katie, because you have like led that in this group of like getting them steps in and being consistent and like not stopping. And I looked at Ray Ray, and I'm like, man, I used to always be on a walking pad, right? And then my kids broke the remote. And I looked at Ray and I'm like, that's just an excuse, though, right? Like, I go buy a new remote or buy a new walking pad. Like what? Like, so I just want to thank you because yesterday was like, you know, when people hit you through the eyebrows, like, dude, get out and walk. Like, what's wrong with you? Um, this morning, I couldn't be more excited to wake up and go walk, right? Like today's my dog's fifth birthday. I'm like, girl, I'm doing 10K steps. So I want, and and I'm glad Katie, you're on because I know you all are traveling, but I want us to maybe make a commitment to each other that like a 10K threshold daily is like our our standard, right? I know just the best. You got after it with Marissa, and you were like video me at like five in the morning and then like 10 p.m. And she's like, I'm just out here stepping it. And I think iron sharpens iron. And so thank you, Katie, for always role modeling that for this group. I think you've been the most, and I know you all are awesome and you work out and all the things, but when I think about steps, I think about like Katie's just like, yeah, just stepping her little cute hiny all across the US. Um, but makes it really consistent, right? Like with everything that you've been doing. So thank you for that, girl. Yes, look at everyone's coming into my challenge. Okay, so I don't know. Oh, I have an aura ring, it's over there, or your um or just your watch. And I think some of you guys do it to each other, like you just at the end of the day, like 10K done. But let's just like check in on Wednesdays, like boom, nailed it. Like at least five days a week, I think we can do 10k steps. And if you need a good walking pad, I'll drop it in the group chat. Uh Jen Griswold, the one that Molly from um Washington, DC, is the reason that I got on it. So yeah, I'll drop that in the chat. Woo woo, Katie. Oh, and I also want to say something else to you, Sherry, because of Katie. The other week, Katie said, Oh, I don't think I have any big wins. Then she's like, Oh, yeah, I sold a film, four million dollar house. I'm like, wait, wait, how come high achieving women, like and Sherry, you just said it too. Like, I really don't have any big business wins, but meanwhile, I massively invested in my health. I dropped four pounds and I look freaking amazing. Right? Like, why do high achieving women do we sometimes think that we have to like, I don't know what we have to do to be like celebrated, right? And so Court and I talked about, and then I don't know if you saw some of Court's posts for me, but it was just like, why do high achieving women not celebrate like all the things, right? Like, we should absolutely, it's fun having Court as my OBM because she's like, okay, what do we do? What are we doing when we celebrate this milestone? Okay, what are you gonna do then? I'm like, well, I don't know, just go to the next one. She's like, no, what are you gonna do? Like, you gotta stop and you gotta celebrate it, right? Otherwise, it's just like on to the next, on to the next. So, Sherry, you've had some massive wins, and without the personal development, the business won't even last at all, right? So we need to celebrate that. I love it. Yes. Celebrate, celebrate. Okay, Miles, I know you need to podcast, so I want to at least do this part of um our training. That's not what you want to see. All my text messages, that's here we go. If anyone else has anything else before I start, I'm excited.

SPEAKER_01 37:59

I'm so excited.

SPEAKER_02 38:01

Okay, here we go. And back to you guys to share screen. You guys, this is something a year in the making, and some of you are so pivotal on even this coming to fruition. Um, I actually already have like my speech and the whole day planned out. Uh, so I'm really believing that some of you are gonna be in the room so you can actually hear me talk about you, so I'm not talking behind your back. But drum roll, please. You first! Can y'all see my screen? Okay, so I made an announcement on Monday about our very first Marriage Made in Heaven live event. And I'm like, nope, hold up, wait a minute. I'm telling inner circle before everyone knows. I was actually at Ray's birthday, and this girl goes, I looked everywhere for the link for this event. I was like, yeah, so after the inner circle hears about it and they have a link, then all y'all will find out about it. But as you guys know, you have been a huge, huge, you are the reason. Let's just call it as it is. You are the reason that Joshua and I are doing this live event. And here's what I want to increase your faith. Does anyone put faith in the chat if you want me to increase your faith today? Because I think the biggest thing that we can do for each other is like dream way bigger in God. And that's why I opened today's prayer with God, let us just dream so much bigger in you, greater wisdom, greater revelation, greater understanding of what you want to do. So I literally told Jesus, if I do this event, it has to be with two specific people. It has to be at this boutique, bougie, rancho, Santa Fe, and it has to literally like check all these boxes. Can I tell you on Miracle Monday, it was not looking like that, was it Nade's? I was like, Nadine, you hustle these people. What's wrong? Get off the phone. Don't tell them, don't let them tell you what you're gonna do. You tell them, this is our room. This is our we are doing this thing. Cute Nadine, I love you. She she went to the test. I showed up live in person and I was like, yeah, I need to meet with Annie, the person that's not getting back to Nadine, the person that needs to give me this room and the trellises for my lunch. Where is she? That's what I did. Lo and behold, we have secured this amazing place. And here, I'm gonna go through my quick little slides. So I want I want to share this with you guys because you are the people that I'm doing this for, and you are the people in your network that need that know the people that need to be here. It is not that your marriage is broken, right? But it's quietly paying the price for everything that you've built. So success doesn't expose the cracks, right? It just widens them. So if you have a communication gap, like at year one, then all of a sudden it's year 10, it's a canyon. Put me in the chat if you can agree. Sometimes when us high achieving women are going after goals and stuff like that, little things are kind of breaking, but we kind of just like, oh, we'll fix that next time. So this is for high achieving couples. And it's a one-day intensive for those couples who have built the life and refuse to lose each other in it. Not only lose each other, but also realize there's so much more of him to be lived in it. So it's not a weekend retreat, it's not a seminar, it's not another conference where you like take notes, you forget it by Thursday. It is like the real work. It is an intensive, we talk, we do. We talk, we put into play. We talk, we have like the entire thing, an action plan in action. And this picture isn't even as pretty as it looks right now. This is what I wanted. I wanted us all to have lunch under these trellises, which now are all green with flowers in June. Rancho Santa Fe is like, I mean, Ray Ray, you know, it is just medicine. It is the most beautiful place on earth, um, full of flowers, full of everything. So here's the biggest takeaway. I wanted this couple there. I was like, if I'm gonna do this, Lord, you have to make a way where there is no way that they would come. They were literally with President Trump last week. So when A B was like, dude, this day doesn't like look good for us, I'm like, to hone in on these humans who are just with Donald to be with me and you guys for a day. I'm like, okay, you're you're coming on the seventh, you're preaching at our church, and on the eighth, you stay and we're gonna do this. And they're like, yes. And so they've been married 35, 35 years, 30 years in ministry called Remnant. Um, best-selling authors, flashpoint army, daystar, TBN, God TV, you call it. Guys, they were in the Oval Office for a reason. Do you know why? And this is important. Marissa uh McAroy asked me last night, Marissa, who spoke at our retreat, said, Allie, we have invested thousands in our marriage. Tell me why this is gonna be different. And I said, Can I tell you a story? She said, sure. I said, um, when I look at people that I admire and mentor, I want to see the fruit. Always, especially their children. If there's one thing I've seen in two decades almost of ministry, some kids don't turn out good. And that's not Jesus' fault, it's a parenting fault. It is putting other things above the most important ministry, I feel that's in our four walls. So when I speak about Pat and Karen, I think it's more important to speak about Nate, their firstborn son, who is the largest youth pastor in Modesto, California, the largest youth group in the United States, and he said, Things aren't going well in this nation for this youth. And if I'm gonna be here day in, day out for these kids, I need to make a bigger, bigger impact. I need to be the next president. What? He went back, he got a master's in political science, he busted his butt, campaigned like no one's business, got into Senate in Texas, started overturning laws for pro life, started making crazy cool laws. You would love this for adoption and international adoption specific because his daughter, his sister is from China. Um, started doing radical things, started going after new some, newsome and him, toe-to-toe on big things. And guess what? And then the Lord just showed him, just like Ray, the chapter was done. And he goes, Okay, Lord, it's time for me to go to the White House. So Nate Schatzlein is actually next to Donald Trump right now, head of the advisory board with Paula White. Okay. Why is that important to you? Why is that important that I shared that with Marissa? Because of his parents. His parents' lens were like, we're bold as lions. We are bold as lions. If things aren't right, we call it out. If things are going wrong in the church, we're gonna be the first ones to do it right. We are not gonna back down. When you have a fiery anointing like that, you're not liked. They're not liked. A lot of people have kicked these two out of their churches, out of ministries, out of businesses. They're not liked. You know what I'm like? Bring it. You are my people. That is why when so they invited me to go to Washington, D.C. with them. I'm like, done, full send, A B. Like, I need to talk to Donald. I got, I got words, right? Like, let's go. Those are the type of people I want in your life. I want you to be in a room where you catch that fiery, prophetic anointing that they have on their lives because God is using them in unprecedented ways. And are you ready for this? Are you ready for this? They just wrote the most powerful book on marriage that I've ever read. And yes, it's only in PDF right now because it doesn't launch till December, but Joshua and I were privy to read it first and give them a I don't know, accolade shout out. But it's called The Anchor Holds. It's what Nate told them. You guys, they've been, if you want to talk about spiritual warfare on this family, I mean their stories will blow you away. I mean, Satan literally coming after them, trying to take out their lives. Like it's insanity. People breaking into their homes with guns, holding them at gunport with them not even being moved. Karen's like, Allie, I could shoot anything with my eyes closed and hit the target. Like, I'm not, I don't fear. And look at how hot she is, right? Like in this white pantsuit. But the chick is like, she's unbelievable by the spirit. Anyway, it's a spirit-led covenant marriage that stands for lead with purpose, impacts generation. It's not a book, it's a blueprint. And they, I, so she just launched a book, She EO. It is amazing. It launches in May, and I want all of you to read it. It's about being a sheo. Okay, one of my best friends is in first class right now, flying to something, and she's like, it's all me and men. This has to change, right? I mean, that's my like yes and amen. Why is she in first class and it's only men and her? But Karen is so strong in business and ministry in the prophetic that she believes you can be a Proverbs 31 woman and she teaches you how, week by week, in a devotional. She's fire, you'll love her. But I I'm obsessed with her book. But this book, I was like, is there any way that you guys can share it with us? And they are. It's not going to be for sale, obviously, till December. They need six months from the publisher, from She EO in May till then, but you guys get to be the very first to get the training from them and hear about this book. And I promise you, it's life-changing. Okay. Can I get a yes, please, in the chat right now? Okay, Condiness. I don't know if you guys follow them, but whenever they put something in their beautiful magazine looking this good, I'm like, yes and amen. Obviously, the inn made the top 20 in 2026. But it is the cutest, most bougiest place. And you guys, it was across. Some of you guys came to Time in the Ranch with me to pick up some food last time. And it's literally five minutes from our hotel or from our villa that we all got to stay at with. Um, and it's Rancho Santa Fe, which you've already been to. What will you walk away with? It's not notes, it's not a binder. Someday I'll get it. We're literally building something inside this room. So we're gonna be talking about the communication framework. We're gonna talk really about defined rules and clear expectations that there's one thing that Karen and Pat do well. It's staying in the godly realm of a wife and mom and woman and the the masculine realm of man, leader, um, in divine order. Their story's radical, like it's just too fun. Um, we're gonna do visions for our marriages, uh, conflict resolution. They have an incredible, incredible framework. And then again, the anchor holds. Um, they're gonna do an incredible teaching out of that. So, one more thing. I opened up seats for singles because some people have reached out to me, like, hey, you know, like I want to be the woman or the man before I say I do. Can I be a part of this? So, yes, and amen. There is a single seat. Um, it's $9.97 for single seat, $19.97 for the couple seat, and includes the entire day and a nice, amazing, delicious, not boxed lunch, but bougie Mediterranean from Leon's restaurant right there on um on the hotel property. And I'm so excited. So let me say it plainly. You invested in your business, you invested in your growth, you've invested in every version of yourself that you've asked to become. Now it's time to invest in the one thing that holds all of this together in a beautiful, beautiful dish. Our marriage. So before I open it up to the world, literally no one has access to this yet. I wanted to share it with you guys. We are gonna keep it intentionally small. Why? Because when you're in a massive room, as we know, that's why inner circle is so sacred and so sweet. You actually get to be seen and heard, and you actually get to go deep quick, right, malls? When there's only a couple of us in the room, you're like, okay, I'm not gonna be silent. I signed up for something and I can do it in this room. So we're gonna keep it super small. Um, and I want to keep you guys at the first front forefront for the first seat. So here's what also is cool: it's in between Mother's Day and Father's Day. I thought, what better gift to give us as the mothers and our husbands as the fathers to invest one day in our marriage in the beautiful rancho Santa Fe. So tell me, oh, we're gonna start our thing. Will you guys drop in the chat if you're like yes and amen? I am coming, save that seat for me because um wait, I gotta get back to the chat. Or maybe you can yeah, it literally is the Ray Ray can admit because she's now local again. The inn at Rancho Santa Fe is the most perfect part for a marriage retreat ever. The fact that they don't have a wedding that day, because it is Miracle Monday, is absolutely incredible because right now it is totally um nuts, but let's go. Love that, love that. Yes, yes, please, yes, yes, yes. How many people can attend before this is sold out? That is a really good question, Lynn. So I right now I'm and I'm praying about this. I thought 20 couples, we would cap it at 20. Um, I think that's kind of a sweet spot, but I'm I don't feel that from the Lord, I didn't get confirmation from the Lord, but I'm thinking 20 couples. Um, and it's it's vetted. So I'm not allowing everyone that's asked about it to come. It is a very specific group of people to get what I believe God wants to do in it, just like inner circle. So um, if there's people that you guys want to invite, I absolutely honor and respect you and your network. Um, so they would absolutely get a spot if it seems like the right fit, but there's a lot of people um that aren't the right fit. And I say that with all humility, but you guys know what I'm saying. The conversation at this level in our marriage is different than other conversations at different levels. Yay! Yes! Moving it like literally, Katie, you and Anthony are a huge piece of why I'm doing this. Huge, like massive. When Anthony meets Pat, it's over. It's like over. Malls and Matt. When Matt meets Pat, it's over. Yes, Lindsay and Eric, you have to be there. Amy, does 1997 include hotel? And it's one day. Yes, it is one day nine to five, and I'm working on a room block with them right now. Um, I literally am probably gonna go back to the hotel tomorrow. Just be like, I need the room block now. Um, so I will get back to you on what that looks like. Matt surgery date, that mast is gone in Jesus' mighty name. Not happening. Yes, Katie girl. Amen. And Molly, go crush your podcast. Crush it. Okay, so please let me know, you guys, if you know people that need to be there. Um, honestly, it is going to be probably the biggest thing that's gonna change marriages. And I think it's something that we'll probably do consistently, but I know it's unprecedented to have Pat and Karen here, to have it at in and to have you guys in a room together with your spouses, right? What God started just through the one hour we had with Smoke and Hot Spits, which was just kind of like, hey, give us your questions versus what we have planned and prepared as an intensive. Um, I promise you, it is gonna yield a hundredfold increase in your marriage. I just know it. I know what God's gonna do. Um, I know personally my own life that's been impacted when I delivered a baby dead at home, that God used Pat and Karen so powerfully to speak into my spirit, who brought in John Samuel into this world and just the prophetic gifting that John has in his life. It's just it's next level. When you fight all of hell, like every single day in your life, you carry something that most don't, and that's Pat and Karen. So um always lipstick, always lipstick, always. And Pat and Karen, Pat and Karen are very open. They have sex every night at 9 p.m. Every night. Um, it and they're known in their industry. They have a multimillion dollar business um and they do a bunch of training inside of it, and they are known in the industry as the couple that has sex every night at nine. So they'll be like, Oh, are you the couple? And Pat will be like, that has sex every night at nine. Yeah, that's us. You can call on us, right? He's got like a very funny humor of like a junior high boy. Um, and she's super proper. So it's a very fun dynamic. Like they are just really, really amazing. But always lipstick, um, always pound town, all the things. Childcare is a big hurdle. I know. I wish that we could do something, but here's what I'm gonna tell you Mother's Day, Father's Day, when we poll on people, it's June, June 8th, Monday, June 8th. He is preaching on June 7th, Sunday. So if you want to fly in for church on Sunday night, June 7th, Pat Shatslein is doing the 4 p.m. service. Karen's doing the 11 a.m. So if you want to double dip on a Sunday, Karen's 11, Pat's four, and then all day um marriage stuff on on Monday. But um, back to the the kid thing, asking the in-laws, asking friends and family, hey, this is a mother's gift to me. This is a Father's Day gift. We need to invest in our marriage to be better for these babies. Is there any way you could cover us for a day? And that's why we're doing one day, to be honest. I actually wanted it to be two, but I know for childcare, I know for business, all that kind of stuff in this season of life, doing in and out is probably the best. So we're gonna give you pure fire from nine to five. Um, and some of the couples that are coming, you guys, are people that are your ideal clients. I'll just say that. There's a catcher on the Dodgers who's obsessed with my marriage made in heaven podcast. Um, and his wife tells me it all the time at school. Our kids go to the school. So Rancho Santa Fe is a bunch of bougie, like MLB, NHL, NFL retirees, and they all go to my kids' school. Uh, but there's fun people that you're gonna meet too. So think of it as a networking opportunity with people that you probably would never meet that would come to a marriage retreat like this just because of connections. So it's it's really cool to see who's gonna be in it. Ooh, lawyers are family offices. There is a lawyer. I love it. And there's lots of liars here, aka lawyers in Rancha Santa Fe. In fact, my parents need to come and my dad's a lawyer. My mom's like, um, I think dad and I need to be at your retreat. I'm like, yeah, I do think you should too, actually. You should be partakers. So it is for all couples, all couples across the board. All right. Yay! Okay, so let's wrap up in a perfect bow. What everyone is talking about, that no one really is talking about, because we talked about AI, and AI is a beautiful gift. It is such an opportunity for us to scale faster, bigger, and better. However, the flip side to that is the fact that everyone's starting to sound the same, right? Put same in the chat if you're starting to see same z's in people's copy or in people's YouTube or in their presentations where you're seeing things like, oh, that same line might have been something. And by the way, Jess the Vest and Katie Girl, Court was like, Did you see this picture? I'm like, Oh, did I see it? I'm like, the second I opened the album, she goes, I literally fell off the chair. It was literally the funniest thing I've ever seen. I go, and have you not noticed that I use it in all my slideshows now? I mean, come on. Look at that glorious booty and how how perfectly Katie's hand is rested with her huge rock, put your money in my purse, which John Sam still says, Mom, put your money in my purse. Um, okay, so here's my secret sauce that I want to share with you guys today. But of course, I want to talk about some top research because I think it's important to look at Deloitte, Harvard Business, and different kinds of publications from March about why copy specifically in branding is changing, which we all can see. Put change in the chat if you're like, okay, I need to level up in this area or I'm gonna be left in the dust. But branding specifically is number one priority for 2026, ranked above generation or generative, excuse me, AI, performance marketing, and every other strategy, right? Why? Well, we're gonna talk about it. CMOs rank AI 17th out of 20 priorities because distinctiveness, authenticity, and emotional connection, aka get in the room, June 8th, ranked in the top five. Harvard Business, hot markets punish undifferentiated entrants. Growth initiatives succeed only when anchored, anchored, anchored, in genuine distinctiveness. What anchors you? We're gonna talk about it. Deloitte, by 2026, 20% of organizations will use AI to eliminate over half the middle management. We looked at the headlines last week or the week prior. We're seeing that across the board. We're seeing middle management be replaced by AI, but you know what? Human judgment, coaching, and vision remain irreplaceable. Put an amen in the chat. Do you agree with that? So obviously, we can all agree across the board that content is merging to look so similar. Even YouTube, keynotes, all that kind of stuff. And now the challenge that we have as iconic in our industry, as women of faith, as people that are pulling against the grain, is like, how do we look different and see a sameness, right? Obviously, we know this, but 79% of consumers say that brands must demonstrate unique, relevant positions to earn their business. Mindy, you pulling the faith card harder than I've ever seen you pull it before is that differentiator. Lindsay, you went first, kind of in that, right? In the industry of real estate. And Katie Girl, we know you're kingdom. Katie Girl calling out every YouTube up and there on her Instagram is most probably one of the most polarizing people. People want that. 80% of people are looking for the people that are gonna be polarizing. 80% of people are looking to me, it says this. I want a woman of strong convictions, A B, right? I want someone that holds a standard that's different. How do we know that our businesses aren't gonna crumble to the ground when things get even more competitive in an AI landscape? Because we're different, because we're chosen, because we're set apart, because we're called. So only 5%, it says of buyers are actively shopping at any time, yet 80% already have a vendor in mind before they start. You know what that tells me? Memorable. Are you memorable? If 80% of people will already know, and we talked about this last week, about our thoughts, right? And that people already made a decision to say yes to you because they see themselves being transformed or different because of your offer, because of you selling their house, because of you managing their money, they've already made that decision because of your distinctiveness. So companies that articulate an authentic identity and invest consistently in long-term brand building generate stronger customer preference and are more stable in demand. I want you to think about the iconic brands that you like and then think of why you like them real quick. So just drop in a chat like one brand that you know you're buying Viore and you're buying Viore because it's always high quality and it always elevates your your look. Tell me one brand and then tell me why. Why are they why is it already a yes in your head? What other brands are right that you know you're gonna buy from them? Like it's just for Jesus! Let's go, girl. That definitely deserves a shout-out because I feel the same way. If I'm gonna buy something, I know it's gonna be great, and they're gonna love it. Dior, great bags. Valentino. Consistent. They're consistent with their quality. What else? What else iconic brants? I'm gonna see a trend here. Um, Katie, you absolutely shout out merch for Jesus and you absolutely make sure everyone knows. I mean, come on, what does Brookie do all the time? She's like, I'm gonna wear live out loud everywhere I go and be my number one hype girl, right? Like, LOL. It says lol. Yours says merch for Jesus, right? Like yours says Jesus is king. But yes, you absolutely need to shout it out. Lululemon, which I think your stuff really does have a lot of Lululemon feel. I don't love what they say it represents, but it is truly the best. Agreed. High quality. So do you guys see the thread here? Fig scrubs, high quality, elevate your brand, right? Everything that you guys are writing here are something that talks to quality and it talks to how it elevates you. I want you to drop, evolve. I want you to drop your own brands right now. And then, Katie, you already did the work, see? You already got the answer to this test. I want you to drop your own brand, and then I want you to sit in the driver's seat of a customer and say why people choose you, why they already have your yes. So put down your brand and then why people already have your yes. What have you earned the respect for that Valentino Dior Lululemon has earned? What is it about your brand? Come on. So she went works for Jesus. It's bold, right? It is a bold thing to wear Jesus as King. All over yourself. We got no universe, no smoke screens. I deliver natural results. Let's go, Sherry. Sherry, it's unique because I've been sharing Epicutus with so many people because I'm getting so many compliments. But what I say is it decreases the amount that my own girl, Sherry, is getting tox patients, and that speaks, you know, even more so to your integrity that you would lose money perhaps by not having a service like that, but you're gaining that natural marketing of the people that you know it's better for the client. That's huge. That is massive. I love that. Ray, Ray, our people know we care about them and their results. And yes, your men's hats, like John Sam wears the men's hat. I sent a picture, I think, to you and Sammy and Mammoth. Yeah, your men's hats are goals. In fact, let's chat maybe for Marriage Made in Heaven, because I'm thinking of the men's hat, and that actually would probably be really awesome for merch bag. Come on, Linz, becoming known for my hot pink marketing. You go first, right? You go first. What other I our neighbor was selling their house and I sent it to Lindsay. I go, there's a reason it's sitting on the market. Look at how ugly the sign is. If they would have had a Lindsay sign, they would have sold this thing the first week. This sign is so ugly. I don't I don't even want to look at the house. Like, that's how ugly this sign is, right? That that matters. That matters. You're, I mean, look back at the statistics of Harvard Business. What are they saying? The distinctiveness matters in business. Kingdom builders of Naples, highest quality builds at the best possible price. Stand by our builds for decades. Boom. That's what I'm talking about. It's funny because Kate, Katie, you're kind of getting known for Lux Katie, right? Like, oh, is that Lux Katie? Like amongst my cousins and my parents. Like, oh yeah, the Lux, the Lux Katie, the Lux Builder, right? That's identifiable. That's distinctiveness. That's people saying yes, even though they even before they walk into spec homes. That's people buying your spec homes before it's even ready, right? So you guys see this thread? I don't want to like beat a dead horse, but are you seeing this?

unknown 1:06:32

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:33

Drop anything else in there. You guys gotta know what you're identifiable for. You gotta know why people choose you over everyone else. This is very, very important in 2026, especially April 2026, especially in the name of the AI game, right? How are you different? How are you distinct? How are you unique? How are you grabbing attention? Now I wore this green sweater last night at Ray Rays for dinner, and I'm so excited about the Rancho Santa Fe Inn, the inner rancho, that I'm like so in my brand of like selling Marriage Made in Heaven, right? Like that's not distinctive, but it is. Why? Because I'm encompassing what's to come in this brand of Marriage Made in Heaven live. All right, ready for this? We refuse to be in the sea of sameness. Why? Because we are not of this world. Put not of this world in the chat. Now, what does the business say? So that's what I say as a woman of the spirit. My convictions say I am not like you, actually. I am not in the sea of sameness. I will never play in the sea of sameness. Harvard Business Review is it's a really good article if you guys want what authentic leadership looks like under pressure. You can Google it. But it said, miss mission driver leaders who communicate clearly about what they believe, anchored. You guys can hear a lot about anchor, a lot about being anchored at the June 8th retreat, anchored in core values, build the kind of trust that AI can not ever, no way, never today, will never, ever, ever replicate. This matters. This matters. When you become bold as a lion, when you decide that your bios are gonna stand for being the faith-driven woman, when you decide to put in your on your websites, in your copy that I am a woman of faith and I will no longer stand, you know, timid to share that. I'm gonna speak up and I'm gonna ask people where they're at and what they believe, A, B, in Vegas. I'm gonna have strong convictions in my life where like not out of judgment, not out of condemnation, not out of being preachy and telling people, hey, you shouldn't be doing that right now, but spooning them for three days and being like, Holy Ghost, get them. Just get Jesus, get all over. Let the oil on me just rub right all over her that she leaves and she's like, What is this stuff? I need it, right? That's who we are. We are mission-driven leaders. We we do communicate clearly about what we believe, but could we do it better? Could we anchor more in the core values of what the Word of God says? And can we build trust within inside of people, 80% that will already know that our brand is the brand to buy just by who we are and how we show up? It's powerful, girls. It's powerful. Authenticity is a genuine expression of a brand's values, mission, and identity. Identity. I can't tell you how many godly Christian women, faith-driven entrepreneurs, and you guys know exactly who I'm talking about, whose identity is still totally caught up in the world. People pleasing, imposter syndrome, fear of man. But authenticity is like the top five. If you look across any kind of branding and marketing, the people that are the most transparent and consistent, those are the ones that will always win. It's almost like I would call recension recession proof. Do y'all believe that? Maybe put a one in the chat if you that's kind of a powerful statement. But I truly believe if you can be completely authentic, you know your identity, you got to know your values and your mission. Enough said, but we know where those come from. His word. But when you truly know your identity and you can be completely authentic and transparent always in your business, I believe that's recession proof. I believe those are the women that God's gonna use powerfully in the next coming years. I believe Jen Aubby's thing about the transference of wealth coming to women, the women that truly hone in on this, they're gonna be the partakers of that. I do. This is the moment for brands to push in the opposite direction, to commit to bold choices. Be bold, be bright, be godly. Even if they aren't initially universally loved. Put me in the chat if when you became stronger in your faith, it was not really received by coworkers, husbands, family members. I mean, some of you guys like almost burned at the stake for sharing, right? People don't like that. People do not like that. But guess what? This is our moment. This is our moment. Lastly, Harvard, Harvard Brad. This is another one. New strategies for growth. But it says the takeaway is blunt. If differentiation, diff can't even speak it. If becoming different is uncertain, growth should be slowed or avoided entirely. Growth without a clear identity is not strategy, it's noise. Put noise in the chat if we are living in the noisiest time. We have the most amount of access to information, yet we're like the dumbest generation in execution. Well, that's what they say, not us, but everyone else. We have to know why we're different, but more importantly, our brands need to be set apart from every other brand. We need to be different than everyone else. And so, how do we do that, friends? Put in the chat before I go to my next slide. Put in the chat how are how do you differentiate yourself? How are you different than everyone else in your industry? Just put up maybe one word or one sentence. How are you different? Integrity, let's go. What you do behind closed doors matters. That's why I think how we show up, what we look like, Sherry is a big deal. Right? You grading the trust in the back for what you do in the background when you show up, on the consistent days that you don't want to do what you need to do, doing the mundane, boring things day in, day out, honoring our husbands, living in divine orders when they we don't feel they deserve it. Right? Showing up for one more school thing when we're like literally, this is the last place I need to be. Right now I have so much going on. All that matters. Come on, I speak Jesus.

SPEAKER_05 1:13:40

Can I can I ask something here? Yeah. Um, so I'm really confused about this whole bringing Jesus into your business kind of thing, because some elders at my church were very, very forward with being very cautious bringing faith in Jesus into your business. Like you want to be a Christian running a business, not a Christian business, if that makes sense. And so I find that hard to navigate, especially with like social media and branding and whatnot. Like I'm just very cautious with uh being so forward about it, because I've been explicitly told that you don't want to be on the other side of like you don't want to be using Jesus to get business, if that makes sense.

SPEAKER_02 1:14:44

Yep. I think there's two conversations going on here, and I I welcome the chat to go and I welcome anyone to pop off mute. So um there's two two things. One thing you said was that you didn't want to put it out there and be a Christian business. The other thing you said is monetizing the gospel and monetizing Jesus to get business, right? Is that true to say?

SPEAKER_05 1:15:09

Kind of two conversations and I would and I wouldn't say that I need new pastors either, because the people that are saying this to me, like I have very deep, deep, deep respect for. And so I I just kind of want to be cautious of and yeah, if that makes sense.

SPEAKER_02 1:15:34

No, no, no. I and I don't even know who the pastors are. So, but I want to just in coaching you, I hear two different things. One that they don't want you to use Jesus just to get business. Is that a true statement?

SPEAKER_05 1:15:50

Yeah, a thousand percent for sure.

SPEAKER_02 1:15:52

Okay, and then the other thing I'm hearing them say is don't bring Jesus into the business conversation. Is that true?

SPEAKER_05 1:16:02

Yeah, I think that I like just especially with like branding and social media and you know, like the front forward of that. Um I think if we're still figuring things out in our lives, like it totally makes sense for somebody like you, Allie, to just be like Jesus number one, Jesus, this is my business for his glory CEO because you like eat, breeze, sleep, everything in your life is audited by the Holy Spirit, right? Where a lot of people don't fit in that bucket, yeah, right? Yep, like there's still things going on in your marriage and in your heart and in your personal life and whatnot. And so, like, it it's I think it's something that we should all take very deep caution of how we're navigating this of building our branding around him if things in the back door aren't fixed, right?

SPEAKER_02 1:17:06

A thousand percent. I totally, totally agree with that statement. It would be better that you remain silent than be a hypocrite.

SPEAKER_05 1:17:14

However, yeah, a million percent. And so, like, I think with and I agree all of the coaching that you're doing, I just think that that needs to be like a very deep emphasis on because I think it holds a lot more weight to that, yes, than and it should.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:33

But I want to encourage you this, A B. I I still trip up, right? I still I like stopped preaching on Sunday night because I thought Jake was messing around. Meanwhile, it bit his tongue and he was like crying because his like tongue was bleeding. I was like, are you messing around in the house of God? Like, what's right? Like there, I'm still gonna do things and on a public stage, right? That like that wasn't a fruit of the spirit. That wasn't having patience and self-control in the middle of a meeting for a six-year-old that like bit his tongue, right? I feel that sometimes we don't feel that we're able to share a conviction or a standard that we have because we're not good enough. And that's one thing I don't want you to come underneath and think we need to have the perfect marriage. I need to be a non-cussing, modest, you know, put whoever's name you want in there before I don't believe that. I believe you can be a woman of strong conviction. I believe that your brand can have distinctiveness of the standard you hold without saying Jesus. Yeah. Okay. When I was in Rodan and Fields, I was not the way I was with Forrest Glory. Yet Kelly Joe gave her life to Jesus. Right? I didn't do Bible studies, I didn't do scriptures. I mean, I would put it into a Facebook private page or whatever, like, hey, this really rocked me. Like, and it pissed a lot of people off. A lot of people left the page because of it. Bernadette Fields told me not to ever speak Jesus from the stage whenever I have their microphone. You can't say Jesus, you can't say faith, you can't say all that stuff. So I I come from a place of convictions of being told what they wanted versus I felt what God was asking me to do. Does that make sense? Sure. For sure. At the end of the day, we have an audience of one. At the end of the day, you do, in my opinion, have to be under authority to have authority. And if those pastors are the authority in your life, but I also want you to be bold and say, Hey, I feel strongly that I want to share about this testimony. I feel strongly that this connection could probably bless so many people. And I'm gonna I'm gonna share that. I'm gonna go live and I'm gonna share that. Like what happened to me or, you know, because that's different when we're sharing about him. Are we saying, look at me, look at me, look at me? Uh-uh. We're like, look at him, look at him, look at him.

SPEAKER_05 1:19:50

Mm-hmm. Okay, cool. Yeah, that makes sense. I uh it's just been uh something that I've really been struggling with on how to have a balance of that. So yeah, because I'm not a pastor.

SPEAKER_02 1:20:07

No, and you know what? Everyone else, weigh in. I think the chat, I haven't checked the chat, but if anyone else wants to come out, um and say, yeah, the chat's really great right now. Here, I'll say one last thing. And this isn't as Pastor Alley at all. This is as your as your sister. I can't be someone different. I hate fake. I came out of the womb fake. My dad's a lawyer. I'm like, oh, you're a liar? Do you just lie? You make money because you lie. That's how you lie. Okay. Like I would go into the law firm and I just I just couldn't do fake ever in a day. Like I knew when people are lying, I personally could never lie. So maybe I was jealous of them that they could lie to their parents because I couldn't. Like, I just I I the Lord's giving me that. So when I became this way, I I felt fake. If I was a chameleon at church, and then I was this way at Rodana Fields, and then I was this way at the play date, and I was at this way at the volleyball coach, and this way. Like to me, I'm like, I'm one person. So I have to constantly separate this from that all the time. To me, that was fake, right? It's just kind of who I am. It's what comes out of my pores. And there's a time and a place to be very respective and honoring and wise and shut your mouth. There is, right? The Bible talks about it. The Bible talks about that you will save the and I put it in the chat the other day about wives, that we will see people saved by the conduct or our personal conduct, meaning we don't say a thing, just how we conduct ourselves. Souls will be saved. Ain't that's powerful, right? Yeah. But I'm gonna zip my lip, I'm gonna put myself on mute. Who else wants to chat? This is good. I mean, we can finish the rest of this next time anyway, but what else does anyone else want to weigh on this? Because I think this is very important.

SPEAKER_04 1:22:20

So quiet.

SPEAKER_07 1:22:29

Amy, I just was gonna say, I think we've all been there, especially when starting a business or when we're newer in our walk with faith, is what are the right things to do for business for um, you know, and for Jesus. I think we've all navigated that. I think we've all had questions, we've all walked on eggshells, we've all tried to figure it out. I don't know that any single one person could say, yep, came out of the gates running with Jesus, and maybe there's a couple, maybe Allie. But I know I didn't. I had to navigate it from the beginning. And over a few short months, I just decided that that isn't how I wanted to show up in my business, and it isn't how I wanted to show up in life. And so I just had to let go of anything anyone else was telling me and just listen to what God was telling me and being more prayer, prayerful and being obedient to him. Because ultimately he's the one that matters in the end. And we have an audience of one. And I just had to question what who was I doing it for and what was I doing it for? Because it's all God's money, it's all God's business anyway. How do you want to show up for it? And that's really a personal question for you. I know um when Roche was on, she talked about how she doesn't, you know, she's a Christian, uh, yes, but she doesn't bring that into her business at all. She just had a different perspective on it, that she wanted to meet people where they were um and slowly guide them into it, versus um, you know, other people are just really more bold. So I think that's an answer for you and the Lord. And um, I just always caution against people who are telling you not to speak about Jesus.

SPEAKER_05 1:24:16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 1:24:17

That's a heart posture that only they um can fix with with God.

SPEAKER_05 1:24:23

Yeah, I think like the and my brother was also talking to me about it. He's like, you don't want to like take the blessings out of what God has for you, out of what you're doing, and and position your business to be something that is using him, if that makes sense. So, yeah, exactly. It's like about the heart heart posture and your intentions behind it all. And you know, obviously I've never had that intention of like, oh, like if I speak about Jesus, I'll make more money because of it, kind of thing. But it's uh yeah, it's always been something that I've just been very cautious of. And so getting thrown into conversations like this, like your you, you know, your branding and all of that kind of stuff. I uh I'm just like, okay, but what if I have this opinion of it?

SPEAKER_02 1:25:22

No, and I'm so grateful. This is a very important conversation. I feel that you might I might be communicating this message not the way I want it to be. What I want to communicate is that we aren't like everyone else. Yeah, and that doesn't mean that there's Philippians 4-9 on everything I do. I'm saying I stand for a different standard, I conduct my life in a different way. And the reason I do that is because I have a different set of values, I have a different vision. Does that make more sense?

SPEAKER_05 1:25:56

Totally. And I think like why this is more so my family telling me this, and so it's it's my brother has a very allowed opinion of it because he's probably seen how I've walked like throughout my 20s. And so now with like this heart shift that's happened over the last year, and me just getting like super serious about it, he's like, You have so much work to do before you can start being okay.

SPEAKER_02 1:26:29

Listen, but so Jesus, Jesus wasn't even accepted in his hometown. Yeah, how can anything great come out of Nazareth? You have a lot of work today. You were born of Mary and it it out of wedlock. What like, right? So, yeah, Katie kind of nailed it. Um, you we have to this is so good, A B. Thank you for bringing this up because I think we all need this conversation today. We will have people, and it will be the closest to us, telling us out of the out of the bundle of the heart, the mouse speaks what they think, what they feel, what they believe. But here, I'm gonna I'm gonna just show you the the rest of my notes real quick, if you guys don't mind. And I'm I'm sorry, we got two minutes left. But here's the deal. I'm not telling us that we have to show up and just say Jesus on everything, but we do need to understand the world's answer is branding, right? Branding, marketing, but God's answer is his word, right? So I feel this is important to put the bow on the presentation. So, like McKinley's like, build a distinctive brand, and Harvard Business is saying lead with authentic, authentic values, and Gartner's saying human judgment cannot be automated. But what does God's word say? Philippians 4 says it first, better, and forever. Everything we do has to be word of God, not word of man, not man's opinion, but word of God, word of God. Because Amy, only then will we build something on a structure. From from foundation. The secret sauce of every business is his word. You don't ever have to copy anyone. You don't try to be me, be Katie, be anyone else, because our sound is different. Our framework is eternal. And Philippians 4, 6 to 7 is a four-part operating system that no AI or anyone else can generate. Only you, and let me just teach it, you guys, super quick. So in a sea of sameness, what they call the red ocean, there's a blue ocean, right? And Philippians 4, and I'm gonna just ask you guys to like dig deeper into it and understand it. But something that really, really, really, really helped me in my first business was this four-part framework. Basically, opened it up one day and I was like, Lord speak. Business is tough, marriage is tough, motherhood is tough. Like, what, how, how, how am I gonna make it? Right? And immediately the Lord's like, don't worry about anything. I'm like, that sounds really good. Uh, but there's a lot of things that are happening right now, and um, I don't think that that is the ideal thing. Nope, don't worry about anything. I feel that sometimes we can be women of worry, right? My father-in-law would say to me, Oh, Allie, why pray when you can worry? Just worry about it. The sea of sameness is built on scarcity and fear, but we were built on something else entirely. So this whole conversation is more less more of I want to, you know, throw Jesus on everything, but more of who am I? Who is it that the word of God says I am? What is my identity? Number two is pray about everything. Our strategy doesn't come from logarithms and doesn't come from all these different headlines that I pull week after week, but it literally comes from a throne room because that comes out of prayer. So every business decision doesn't come from our friends and family, from you know, the next best thing that flies down the it really comes from on our knees. And when we're on our knees, we're gonna get heavenly downloads that when someone says something, we're gonna spiritually discern, hey, that's off, or hey, yeah, that's on. Yes and amen. That's right. Why? Because it's the word of God. Number three, and I think this is the biggest piece that so many godly women in business don't do, we don't tell God enough what we need. Right? Specific. That's why I always say, specifically, what do you mean by that? So I'd ask the pastor, specifically, what do you mean like that? What does that look like for me? Right? Get specific. But ask exactly of what you need, right? If it's not from him, ask him to remove it quick. You know, Deuteronomy 28 says, You're the head, not the tail, the lender, not the borrower. But don't let your mouth speak defeat, what's already victorious. I love this by Rachel Wartman. She goes, I watch people pick out seeds of faith that they planted in faith by the words of doubt they speak over their life and business. It's a powerful analogy. And then last, it's all about an attitude of gratitude that the new age and all the other, you know, self-help books at Barnes and Nobles will tell you, right? Give thanks. Well, no, truly, thank him endlessly before you get out of bed. My health is my wealth. His eye leads me, his hands upon me, the angel of the Lord is encamped around me. I mean, it's like daily armor to be so self-aware and in and realizing what we're listening to, who we're listening to, and so gratitude-grounded. I strongly feel this operating system. Again, it's it's his word, not mine. And Philippians 4, 6 to 7 is one of the most powerful things we can implement in our business today. Put amen in the chat if you're like, yeah, I'm going deep on that. Not gonna worry about it. I'm gonna pray about it. I'm gonna tell my father what I need, and I'm gonna thank him endlessly. Watch how that changes things for you. Here's the other thing about the seam of sameness. It's all built on fear. It's all built on fear, every insecurity, fear of being unseen, fear of being outpaced, fear of falling behind, right? Worry is what drives every founder to copy the person who looks like they're winning. And faith is what makes you uncopyable. We are unoffendable and we are uncopyable. Why? Because we operate in a different operating system than the world does, and that is grounded in truth. Amy, do you love that? I put your picture in this presentation, girl. I feel like this meeting is about you. Let's go. Let's go. So I think what okay. Well, do you guys mind if we just pull this into next next time? I don't want to like I don't want to go too fast for that. Um and I think some of you have to hop off. But I I just I love this. J's like, we're talking, I'm calling you. Um, amen, amen, amen. So I we'll we'll continue this conversation, but you guys, I think the biggest take home. I mean, actually, I'm gonna shut up. Give me, give me an aha. Ray, right? What was your aha? What it what really spoke to you here?

SPEAKER_01 1:32:39

To be honest, can you hear me?

SPEAKER_02 1:32:41

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 1:32:42

I have to be quiet. I'm in my dad's office today. Bring your daughter to a work day. Um, but I think the the biggest thing is like hearing Amy talk about this, it's like wild because I feel like God has taken me on that journey and to just be like settled in where I sit with that. When that was something that was stirred for, I don't know, about a year, where I was just questioning and wondering and watching how other people did it. And it's really cool to just be like, I feel like so content um with my journey. And um it's cool. I I just love Amy how you're questioning it because I know that God's gonna give you like the answer that's gonna be perfect for you. Um, and I was just really feeling grateful where like on the journey that God's taken me with with our business.

SPEAKER_05 1:33:24

Yeah, because like I came home after retreat and like I'm feeling in my family, like my brother, his wife, my niece, my nephew, and my mom and Joe, who's my mom's husband, but we don't call him dad. And I was like, yeah, like it's all about like your mission, your your uh what is it? Uh your mission, your uh workplace. What did what were the three things that Kathy and and Chelsea said? It's like three M's.

SPEAKER_02 1:34:00

It's your mission, your market, market, and ministry, mark, but that was a prophecy that I had for them. Yeah, no, so like ministry, mark, marketplace, ministry, and missions.

SPEAKER_05 1:34:12

Yeah, so I was like, isn't that what it's all about? Like your marketplace, your missions, and your ministry. And they're like, absolutely not. Like you have to be like so cautious and careful when you are entering into that and walking into that. Like, and so that makes a whole lot more sense now. Of like, you know, and I was just so confused. I was like, I literally just came from a week of like, this is what I'm supposed to do.

SPEAKER_04 1:34:37

Like, what are you talking about? Like this is so crazy.

SPEAKER_02 1:34:44

But biblically, sorry, word of God, word of God, the Bible talks about when the seed is sown on hard ground and that the birds are gonna come snatch it up right away, that it doesn't even place root, right? It is so it's oh, it's like comical when we start seeing discerning things, like of course Satan would do that. And I'm not calling any part of your family whatever, things that are not no, no, no, I'm not going to because that's I but it's exactly what it's exactly what happens. And honestly, Amy, I saw that for you when I was talking to you at mom's house. That like here you had this incredible encounter with the Lord, right? Yeah, but then Satan would set you up to be like, that wasn't real. Oh my gosh, that's crazy. Wait, you think that's like right? Because again, we sow the seed and then whoops, it gets all plant plucked up. So I think Katie's gonna bring it. And now everyone wants to be on that call. And now Amy's act it now, now Katie's literally gonna write a book because of this, Amy. So I think we should thank your family for all of the um, I think, I think it's always like bring it, right? Full send. Like, I rather have those hard conversations with my family because iron sharpens iron, and I want to know what I believe. And Ray Ray, I love that you're like a year later being like, oh my gosh, I was so there. And now again, Ray, you are completely different than last April and Sammy and Rafa. Like you are. There's no one that could say you look the same, talk the same, act the same, wear the same clothes. You just don't, right? But no one could have done that for you, and no one, Amy, can do that for you. But we are always gonna have opposition, we are always gonna have a spiritual warfare, and we always are gonna have to be armored up, and we always have to be ready with the word of God at the end of the day. That's all I want you to do. Amy, how much time do you spend in the word?

SPEAKER_05 1:36:33

Yeah, probably like an hour every morning. I love it.

SPEAKER_02 1:36:37

And you just specifically ask the Lord specific things like Lord, show me right now how to respond to brother.

SPEAKER_05 1:36:46

Not specifically like that. Like, I ask him to illuminate his word to me and like speak to me and etch it into my heart. Uh, and also to like for comprehension, because I'm a little bit restarted when it comes to that area.

SPEAKER_02 1:37:00

No, you are brilliant. We do not speak any of those words. So when you have these conversations, I always say, Father, you confirm things by two to three witnesses, confirm this now in your word. Or if it's not of you, remove it. And boom, like Philippians 4 will drop in your spirit and you read it, and you're like, Okay, help me understand how this is an answer to this and this to that. That's where I think things get fun with God. He speaks. You ask, he speaks. All of a sudden you're reading something for like the hundredth time, and you're like, no way, it means this. You look up the Greek and you're like, What? I was believing a lie this whole time. Like, this is what, right? Like, I mean, I just got jolted in my spirit thinking of like all these instances for you guys that I will be praying for, and then the Lord will show me like a discerning spirit. I was like, no way, that's it. Like, that's the strong man that needs to be bound for them to get freedom. This is what the breakthrough looks like. This is what they're gonna go through. Like, God is so good like that, Amy. He will show us, he leads us and guides us with his own hand. You gotta read Psalm 139 today and just write out every verse, it will blow your mind. And you're also gonna be a testimony in Katie's book. Let's go. Let's go. Uh and Mindy's saying my family is the same. You know, Sherry had to go. She would say her family's the same. I would say my family's the same. Jess, if she was here, would say that her husband's the same, right? So you're in the you're in the same asiness, same sea of sameness in that respect.

SPEAKER_05 1:38:29

Yeah. So, anyways, sorry for hijacking the rest of your meeting, but it was uh something that I've been really wrestling with.

SPEAKER_02 1:38:39

And uh did you literally excuse me, did you just apologize for getting Katie to write a book and get a testimony in it? Did you really not apologizing for that at all? So don't apologize for any of this because that had to happen, and the Holy Spirit takes control of these calls. And if anyone thought you were hijacking, I know how to stop conversations. I led teams of thousands, and I can make you shut up real quick, but we're not doing that. That is not how we run things here. We're spirit led, and that that conversation had to be had. That was the the purpose of today, right? Yeah, I love it. Katie girl, what was a big aha for you besides the fact that you're writing a book and Amy's gonna be in it, and that you're calling Amy and Mindy and Ray also want to be on the call? I love it. I love it. Who else is on? I know some of y'all are driving. Mindy, do you want to unmute my letter? Love you giving a takeaway.

SPEAKER_06 1:39:43

Well, I was just gonna say maybe I I your story and mine are so similar, and then I came out of working in the holy house with a bunch of men in my family has been you know, super I would say unsupported in my journey with my eliminated, but um, I don't know why. Um I I do think that social media um just like anything in your business that you want to be doing with the Lord. Um and when I when I do that, I have full confidence that whatever um whatever comes out of it is from him, and I've gotten the only negative things from my family, to be honest, and all of my social media posts. So uh don't be afraid to do whatever the Lord's letting you do.

SPEAKER_02 1:40:41

Thank you. Love that. Love that. All right, you amazing humans. Love you fiercely. Next week is actually implementation week. Court is gonna rock um content calendar, planning, all that kind of stuff. So if you guys want to jump on that, awesome. If you're like, I need a week off and I need to implement everything else I'm doing in my life, that is your grace to do it. Um, I am SeaWorld chaperone mom because a lot of mommies, I guess, cannot um chaperone these days. So uh is that place still open? Girl, it is, but it's really like an amusement park now. But they they here, I'm gonna give them some grace. They rescue every animal in San Diego. Like if I see a dolphin or if I see anything, I call SeaWorld. So their rescue program is actually the top rescues marine life. Um, here I know I don't agree with the the black whale documentary and all that kind of stuff. Um, but nonetheless, the third grade class has to learn about tadpole somewhere, I guess. So they are all going to SeaWorld and they don't have enough volunteers. So I'm like, yes, amen. Um, but anyway, it's your week off. So take your week off if you need it. Jump on if you want content with Court because she's amazing, or you want to network with the community girlies, um, they will be there. Other than that, I will be so excited for May. We have a really powerful guest speaker that none of you have actually met um personally. Really cool. Um, and then lastly, please let me know about Marriage Made in Heaven. I'll drop the link actually to you guys before we put it live today. Um, and please let me know those people that you want to invite because it is gonna be the most incredible room. And I'm selfishly totally obsessed with you guys. So if I get more time with you, I need you. So I love you. Have a great rest of your day.
