Mastering the Mic Podcast

A company I decided to profile for this episode is Costco. Costco is a powerhouse in the retail industry. With almost 900 warehouses worldwide and a loyal customer base, it's crystal clear that they have perfected the art of what it takes to focus and they know how to market to their people. And what else is it that makes Costco stand out in the crowded retail landscape, and how can we, as Christi...

What the Lord God is doing regarding public speaking is amazing.

When it comes to public speaking, are you a survivor? I say yes! Do better than I did. Don’t let fear of being judged stop you from showing up like I did many moons ago. Stand up and just do something and continue speaking about it. And know this: public speaking survivors are those who have faced their fears head-on and come out on top. They have pushed through the nerves, practiced tirelessly, a...

What is your brand and what does it stand for regarding that one thing? What steps are you taking to drive your brand all the way to the “bank?” What are you doing to set yourself and your speaking brand apart?

We are talking about the speaker and the speaker certification why it matters for professional Christian females in the light. What I would say is that we know we live in the fast-paced world. Everybody knows that this is the thing, though effective communication is a coveted skill. Warren Buffett says if we do not know how to communicate that stifles our potential, and I totally agree with that....

When we seek God, we will hit many targets as long as we focused on what matters. Do you know that oftentimes we don’t want to slow down to speed up? We don’t want to take our time, because we want to rush the process. We want $1,000,000 yesterday or we want $100,000 yesterday in our business and brand, but we’re not willing to do the work. It doesn’t happen like that. Slowing down to speed up is...

Are you winning or winning? That’s the $10,000 question. Question: are you winning or whiny? Sometimes we’re whining and we don’t have to be whining out loud. We may just be whining in our spirit — God you said you were gonna do this and you said you were going to do that, so we stop because there seems to be no movement. Yet there is movement. It’s just hard to see it and feel it. Just as the wor...

Lift your voice because you’re already winning. Yes, you already won so do not shrink. Why are you gonna shrink your voice when God already put winning in you? I remember a time when I really didn’t think I was winning. What I know now is that is what a great plan the Lord God had for me. There are many lessons in those experiences and I’m better, faster, and stronger for them. You are, as well, s...

Are you ready for that stage? How are you answering that question? That’s the key. We have to have the ability to speak and sometimes people say they’re ready, yet it takes a lot more than they think. If we’re not willing to be open to learning something else, we’re going to stop our blessing because we think we know everything. No one knows everything about anything. Yet when we’re open for sugge...

I want to talk to you about mindset — business mindset can help you you you achieve your goals. How a positive mindset can help you achieve the unbelievable and the unthinkable. God said he would do it right? Didn’t He say He would do it? He said he would and indeed He will.  There was a time when I really didn’t think God would. It’s crazy how I thought I was smarter than God and it turns out but...

When it comes to getting what the Lord has for us, we have to say, 'Lord it doesn’t matter what things are looking like right now, I know you have great things for me, and I am going to get what you have for me.' When we say that, let me tell you something, things will change. Do you want change? Do you want to speak with more confidence? Do you want to become more credible in the speaking...

In the episode, I talk about my story of heavy trials to to heavy triumphs. My story was about me digging deep for the strength to show up even when I was afraid to.

That’s how it happened with me and how it happens with most people. Here’s another point:...
