The Influential Woman | Discover Your Identity, Own Your Voice, Unlock Your Potential
There's a woman who carries more than most people know.
She leads, she serves, she builds - in her career, her business, her home or her church. She shows up for everyone. She carries responsibility with grace.
But quietly, somewhere underneath it all, she wonders why she still doesn't feel like she's enough.
Not because she lacks ability. Not because she lacks faith.
But because she's been DOING before she's been BEING. Performing a version of herself built from other people's expectations, the pressure to perform and other people's definitions of who they think she ought to be - rather than leading from the truest, deepest knowing of who she actually is in Christ.
This podcast is about coming back to your identity.
I'm Trish Jones - voice and identity coach, speaker, author of Unleashing the Hidden Power of Your Voice, and founder of the IW Unleashed community.
For over two decades I've worked with influential women - in corporate, in business and in ministry - helping them reclaim the voice that got buried under responsibility, comparison and the relentless pressure to perform.
Being rooted in Christ - that's your identity.
Rising up to take your place of influence in life and business - that's your voice.
Reigning in life - that's your impact.
Because you were known before you were born. Sent before you said yes to your assignment. And the abundant life God prepared for you? It was never something you were supposed to chase.
It's always been something you receive.
In Matthew 6:33, Jesus said: "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be given to you besides."
We've turned everything around. We've burned ourselves out, become frustrated and disappointed - chasing the "besides" rather than seeking first His kingdom and His righteousness.
When you know who you are in Christ, everything HAS TO change. How you lead. How you speak. How you show up. How you build. Not because you finally got confident enough to do what you were born to do - but because you'll finally know who you are and why you're here.
This is The Influential Woman Podcast.
Welcome to BEING rooted in Christ. Rising up and DOING the work, taking your place of influence in life and business. And reigning in life so you make an impact and HAVE God's promised abundant life.

God's Restoration of Our Identity - Reviewing Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What Fran and I discuss about identity restoration from the perspective of the book is:
- How our identity is tainted - often from an early age - by circumstances, what we've believed about what people say about us and how the enemy confirms what we believe by what we later experience
- What rejection does to wound our souls
- Why God uses people in our identity restoration process but keeps ultimate ownership - pg 349 "Let her go beloved... would you let her hang on her own cross forever?"
- Why we should never underestimate the power of sowing seeds
- When love gets tainted and how God uses real love, His love, to restore our identity
By the way, I am not a novels person. My daughter had to beg me so many times before I relented. For her as a young person, she was grateful to learn before marriage the importance of intimacy and not just sex.
